Beautiful Ideas for Guys (and Gals) From Burt’s Bees

Great Guy Gift from Burt’s Bees:

Smart guys care about their skin. Hopefully they didn’t wait for someone else to give them the Burt’s Bees Men’s Natural Grooming Kit srp. $25.99. A really attractive, just-the-right-size, black and grey zippered nylon dopp kit, holds five fantastic Burt’s Bees men’s products. They’re nicely packaged with masculine labels. The products feature fresh, light, herbal scents (thanks to a blend of essential oils). The star ingredient is sunflower oil, good for all skin types but especially useful for oily skin.

100% Natural

Every product in this little kit has products that are 100% natural including a famous, Burts Bees Lip balm plus aftershave 2.5 fl. oz; body wash 12 fl oz; shave cream 6 oz. and a 4 oz solid bar soap (this one’s 99.72% natural). The energizing body wash has coconut, sunflower and citrus oils to cleanse skin and start the day with an invigorating scent including cypress and fir oils. It’s also Ph balanced, and paraben, phthalate, sodium and lauryl/laureth sulfate free.

For guys who just don’t “get” body wash, there’s also a solid, bar soap. The one in this kit energizes and deodorizes with lemon, orange, and petitgrain oils (to cleanse) and rosemary extract and fir oil for skin that smells great. The Shave Cream – gives a close, smooth shave that’s also gentle, with calendula and chamomile reduce inflammation and irritation, and linden extract to soothe and hydrate.

Some of our male reviewers are not terribly excited by aftershave, our male reviewers loved the Aftershave in this kit. It soothes, and helps even the driest, roughest skin with a lightweight , easily absorbed lotion with star ingredients including sunflower and coconut oils, plus soothing and healing aloe and Vitamin E. Many guys like a solid, bar soap, The one in this kit energizes and deodorizes with lemon, orange, and petitgrain oils (to cleanse) and rosemary extract and fir oil for skin that smells great.

Overnight Bee-Uty:

If “Santa” didn’t bring you any great beauty products, the Burt’s Bees, the Overnight Bee-uty Bag $14.99 is still affordable, post-holiday. It has six, travel-sized beauty essentials tucked into an adorable, bright yellow fabric zippered beauty bag with red accents and a sweet little “bee” on the side. The products feature good-for-your-skin softening oils, stimulating botanicals and emollient nut butters! There’s a refreshing and soothing, Beeswax Lip Balm. And, there is also a nourishing and hydrating Replenishing Lip Balm.

You really don’t need any holiday or occasion to gift yourself (or a host/hostess) with the Mint Medley Gift Set$20.00. I love this one for couples or families, especially because it has six favorite products, full-sized, and ready-to-share. The theme is peppermint, of course, but the variations keep it interesting. These Burt’s Bees products all have peppermint oil or extract, derived from the Mediterranean peppermint plant.

Peppermint doesn’t just make your senses perk up, however. The peppermint herb is valued for its cooling, pain-relieving, and antiseptic effect. The cello-box with peek-a-boo window houses: a soothing/cooling/refreshing Beeswax Lip Balm Tube (.15 oz); a Beeswax Lip Balm in a signature, Burts Bees yellow tin (.30 oz); a Fabulously Fresh Body Bar scented with rosemary and peppermint (4 oz); a nicely lathering Spearmint & Lime Body Wash in a flip-top clear plastic bottle (4 fl oz); an uplifting-ly scented and seriously hydrating Peppermint Foot Lotion (3.38 fl oz) Aactually, it’s more like a soothing ointment/gel. There’s also a truly refreshing tin of white peppermints, for breath-fresh kisses!

Thanks for the comment. Sometimes the most modestly priced brands surprise you. I have a friend who will only use Burts Bees…that’s how beloved it is among it’s fans.
