Lip Balm Lori

This segment is brought to you by the connoisseur of lip balm herself: Lori. I am an addictive user of lip products. My history goes a little something like this: Chapstick (Grade School), Carmex (Jr. High), SoftLips (High School), Burts Bees (College), and now Anti-Body lip balm (I have arrived!).

I've always moved on to better products and now I have found a balm that fits my lips and my beliefs! Anti-body lip balm is Fair Trade certified and contains a few simple ingredients: unrefined virgin coconut oil, beeswax, unrefined shea butter, and vitamin E. It kept my lips soft like SoftLips, the peppermint flavor gave me the tingle of Carmex, the quality was comparable if not better than Burts Bees, and it lasted twice as long on my lips! I'm so excited about this new find I can't stop talking about it to everyone I meet. I bought mine at the fair trade store "Ten Thousand Villages" but you can also order it online.

What lip balm to you use? (post a comment here)

"The Fair Trade" Movie

We had a Raven + Lily screening of "The Fair Trade: What is your life worth?" at my house. I thought it was a very inspiring movie, full of hope and no easy answers. I highly recommend it. Through the film I found out about a fair trade company called "Anti-Body: anti-poverty. beautiful body". I will do another post on them.

When an accident kills her fiancé, 25 year old Tamara Johnston quits a dream job to try to make sense of her new unwanted life. Grief intensifies both a desire to die and her deepening faith, resulting in a fierce deadline: show me something better than death, or I am out of here. Johnston launches a business, becomes an activist, develops her artistic passion, and risks love again but none of it is enough. As time passes in her bargain with God, an opportune trip to Africa gives her a glimpse of what is required of her in exchange for a sustainable life. Written by Lauralee Farrer
