Burt's Bees Is More Than Great Lip Balm

When many folks think of Burt's Bees, they are reminded of that wonderful, smooth, beeswax lip balm with the 'peppermint tingle.' But this proud American company is so much more than great lip balm.

Every beauty product Burt's Bees puts out, is natural and earth-friendly. As they say at their website:

"With Burt's Bees, what you see is what you get. To us, the word 'natural' means only one thing. It means 'harvested from nature.' And that is what we are."

We like the sound of that. And this is why we were so excited to sample Burt's Bees new Naturally Ageless skin care line. The bright red pomegranate fruit plays a key role in the creation of these fine 'ageless' beauty treatments. What's so super about pomegranate, you ask?

Pomegranates hold a lot of power in their small fruits. They are full of anti-oxidants, which in turn, battle the free radicals that damage and prematurely age our skin.

Also present in the 'ageless' formula, are more wonderful, natural ingredients to repair our skin:

White Birch Bark. The bark is taken from this tree and used in a purified , powdered extract. This bark treatment increases skin firmness.

Magnolia. This lovely flower has nice anti-inflammatory properties to it, and has the ability to reduce dark undereye circles.

Para Cress. The extract from this plant helps to smooth skin and relax expression lines.

Borage and Evening Primrose Oils. Oils from these flowers are full of Gamma Linolenic Acid. This essential fatty acid helps improve skin firmness and fight skin's aging effects.

Burt's Bees Naturally Ageless Collection includes:

Line Diminishing Day Lotion ($24.99, 2 oz.)

Firming Nite Creme ($24.99, 2 oz.)

Line Smoothing Eye Creme ($24.99, 0.5 oz.)

Intensive Repairing Serum ($24.99, 0.5 oz.)

The great thing about Burt's Bees, you can find them at your favorite stores...Target, CVS, Walgreens, and Whole Foods.

And there's a lovely scented hair care selection, too:

Very Volumizing Pomegranate & Soy Shampoo and Conditioner (7.99, 12 fl. oz.).

We love this entire Naturally Ageless skin care line. The beauty treatments are natural and feel so good being massaged into the skin. Our skin took on a healthy glow. We especially adore the Intensive Repairing Serum. That little number really smoothed our skin and seemed to soften our fine lines.
