1. Badger Cocoa Butter Lip Balm
Pucker up for your daily java fix with this extra-creamy balm made from organic cocoa butter, organic extra-virgin olive oil, and golden yellow beeswax, as well as extracts of organic dark roasted Arabica coffee beans, rose hip, and seabuckthorn berry. Organic aloe vera melts away cold-weather dryness with lipsmacking aplomb. ($5, Badger Balm)
2. Perfect Organics Hazelnut Coffee Ultimate Body Scrub
For an invigorating, skin-toning buzz, slough away with this heady brew of finely ground coffee beans, moisturizing organic plant oils, and gentle botanical extracts. Allow to percolate on skin before rinsing for best results. ($24.99, Perfect Organics)
3. BodyCoffee Energizing Body Bar
Supercharged, silky smooth skin is just a lather away with this sense-stimulating body bar that exfoliates while it cleanses. Ground Coffea Arabica—with a touch of peppermint extract—gets circulation pumping for that natural glow, while moisture-locking hemp and olive oils relieve parched winter skin. ($8, BodyCoffee)
4. Three Ravens Atomic Cafe Amaretto Bath Salts
Scoop a few spoonfuls of these Cafe Amaretto-inspired salts into your bathtub for a pampering, espresso-infused pick-me-up. With a cuppa that is both organic and fair trade, social responsibility has never felt this indulgent. (From $3, Etsy)
But are there plastic containers contain any recycled plastic cause I here allot about organic or companies say none toxic all natural well what about the solid waste they leave behind and if they do say they contain recycled materials they don't say how much it could mean any where from 1 to 100%. Or if they were made from steel any kind cause I know there is a big market for scrap metals. They pay you for metal. Even glass I guess is better then none recycled glass which is 100% recyclable and can be reused.
I guess it is better then toxic and none recycled
i found a website that sells what seems to be really healthy, organic, natural makeup & bath products. does anyone know about the products being sold at this website, as i've never heard of most of those brands, but they seem to be fairly small companies, maybe handmade?
