Save Your World is up to their old tricks again – making great all-natural products while saving the rainforest acres at a time! This time, they’ve asked me to check out their new lip balm line, Save Your Lips. They’ve introduced three varieties: Green Tea, Grapefruit Mango, and Pure (unflavored). All three get the dkMommy Spot seal of approval.
As I’ve come to expect from Save Your World, the ingredient list is rather brief and includes only identifiable, natural ingredients. All of their items, including the lip balm, contain Aloe Vera and Yerba Mate which are rich in antioxidants, vitamins, and minerals. And I love the flavors! The Pure lip balm is unflavored, which has been great to have around. I don’t always want to wear a flavored lip balm to bed, so this one has been my choice at night. The other two are naturally flavored with pure essential oils, and both are pleasant and not the least bit overpowering.
If you happen to be a user of mineral makeups, then maybe you already know how to use them as lipstick. It requires a good lip balm applied to the lips first, then the mineral makeup color of your choosing is applied with a brush on top of the balm. I’ve been using the Save Your Lips lip balm for just this, and it’s been working wonderfully. And when I don’t have time or energy for color, I use the balm as a subtle lip gloss by wearing a little extra.
But the best part of Save Your Lips? Every time you buy one little tube, you’re saving an acre of rainforest for a whole year! Impossible you say? Save Your World has rainforest conservation down to a science, and they go into great detail on their site to make sure you understand exactly how it works. Every product they sell, they take a portion of those profits and put it right into an amazing program called Conservation International that maintains 200,000 acres of rainforest in Guyana. So when you buy shampoo, soap, even lip balm, you’re really saving an acre of rainforest!
Want to try out the Save Your Lips lip balm line? Save Your World has sent me an extra set for one of you!

Save Your World is a sponsor of the first ever walk from the source to the mouth of the Amazon river which will take almost a year and a half. Amazing!
i like the every day is earth day thing.
The yerba maté suppliers in Brazil are being paid three times the minimum wage for the processed yerba maté that it sells to Save Your World. How sweet is that! Not only do you save rainforest and get a great product but you also help support other people earn a better life by shopping – I love it! And thanks for the giveaway from such an awesome company!
I like the whole idea. If I know I did a good thing, just by buying from a company with these values, then it’s worth it. I only wish it would be easier to get the products, though online orders are fine as well: you get used to it.
the rainforest soap sounds really great!

We added this giveaway to our “Free Stuff” page at http://www.ForMyKidsOnline.com/free_stuff.htm
One of the most interesting things I learned was that all the rainforests combined house and support 90% of the 1.2 billion people living in extreme poverty worldwide. This was absolutely mind-blowing to me! We should ALL do as much as possible to save the rainforests and our fellow human beings!!
Thank you for a great giveaway!!
I really like the save your world video

I learned about how much rainforest goes to waste for our products.
I really like the products, cool stuff and a great cause….what could be better.

Kathleens last blog post..Giveaway: ShopWise Artisan Grocery Bag
lot of nice products, I really like the Fair Trade they participate in with worldwide vendors/artisans. Having a hubby from Guatemala, I know all too well of people not getting paid well for their hard work in third world countries. It is great to see that this company believes in fair wages for a days work.

I like the sound of the Oasis Fruit scent. I’d love to try the lotion and liquid soap. Thanks!
They support the rainforest Rainforests cover only a small part of the earth’s surface – about 2% – yet they are one of the world’s most important natural regions because they:
EMISSIONS OR GREENHOUSE GASES
REDUCE CARBON DIOXIDE
I like the Hostess Deluxe Variety Soap Gift Bag. I can remember so many times when I wanted to gift a gift that was different and this would have made a nice choice.
I read about some of the unique rainforest animals. Seeing such adorable animals such as the endangered giant otter from Rupununi Wetlands, you can’t help but want to do more to save the earth. And it takes so little to help.
I learned “For every $25 you spend per item, you save an additional acre of rainforest for one year, because Save Your World™ contributes 5% of the retail purchase price to our conservation mission.” I can’t imagine being able to contribute so much for so little.
One acre of rainforest is saved for a whole year when you spend 25 dollars. The Oasis fruit shampoo sounds good
I would like to try the oasis fruit conditioner

i read about relieving anxiety and how we can do this by what we eat. I think that is a good step in our lives
one of the most beautiful color on sale today with natural ingrediants
I love how their products are available in a neutral scent – I don’t always want to smell like my body care products.
That Oasis Fruit soap sounds delicious! I love a good, homemade soap.
Amazing that they are able to help save the rain forest with their business. That is terrific.
Thanks for having the giveaway!
