I feel like I have abandoned the board lately. With Spring being here and my traveling being increased at work, I haven't had much time to visit, but I hope that I am still welcome with my infrequent visits.

I spend so much time at the ball field, at the theatre, karate, and in my spare time I work in my flower beds, so staying indoors is so hard for me.

I wanted to share a great product I have found that I just love! It isn't kid related, but I know that all the moms will love it. I have been using Burt's Bees lip balm, but I found that there is a Burt's Bees lip shimmer. It comes in quite a few shades. It still has the minty tingle that the regular balm has, but it has a little color to it and it is so pretty and also conditions the lips! It is the bomb in my book!

Hope everyone is doing well.

Love to you all!!!

I thought of you recently and wondered where you have been. Welcome back! My DD's use that stuff.

What do you mean by 'tingle'? Do you mean the same tingle you get with a medicated Blistex? I require the tingle!! But I don't care for Blistex and they discontinued my FAVORITE Vaseline Lip Therapy tube. Sigh...

I it is similar to the "tingle" of the medicated blistex, but it is more of a cooling effect like mint. It feels really great and soothing!

Hey there, Katherine! BTW, I just bought some Burt's Bees lip balm, and I'm not impressed. Everyone seems to love it, but it seemed to wear off very quickly for me!

I like the lip balm too. I have a few shades. Watermelon is my favorite.

Glad you are enjoying the springtime!

Watermelon is my favorite too!!

When I discovered the "tingle" I was hooked!!! I just bought a 3 pack of them on ebay for a really great price!! I can't find them in any stores in my area (hot seller, I think!!)

The only place that I can find Burt's Bees products is at the Cracker Barrel Restaurant. I think they are great products!!

Bath & body works sells a full line of Burts Bees products. Our Borders book store also has quite a few products. I love the lip shimmer and the coconut foot cream.

I love Burt's Bees lip balm too! I could almost just wear it as lipstick most of the time.
