Good for you, good for a cause? Yes
Key ingredients are from Community Trade projects:
Guarana Berry Extract - from the Amazon Basin in Brazil - Paulinia cupana seed extract, also known as guarana extract, restricts capillaries and reduces dark circles, hey isn't this also used in weight loss products as a form of caffeine ... hmmm?
Shea Butter - Community Trade product from Ghana - Moisturizes and helps soften the skin. Also provides a rural community of women with regular work and income.
Organic Beeswax - from Zambia - Moisturizes and helps to condition, acts as a barrier that helps to seal in moisture, helps to keep product texture consistent when used over time; and also helps protect and preserve the forest as well as providing necessary income for the beekeepers, an increasing number of which are now women.
Proceeds from the sale of every Guarana Lip Butter will be donated to the MTV Staying Alive Foundation, which supports young people and youth groups worldwide to become involved in HIV and AIDS awareness, eductation and prevention campaigns.
