Man, I love my Burt’s Bees lip balm. I have about 10 of them scattered in various drawers, rooms and bags in my house. I’ve tried other natural lip balms since I developed Multiple Chemical Sensitivity but they have either made me sick or I just don’t like them. I just found out that there’s [...]

I use the AquaSmart shower purifier (item #360). I’m not sure if these are available in the US as it’s a Canadian company that makes them. I use it in my shower since I have a sensitivity to chlorine. You can purchase them at London Drugs and some health food stores. I just went to [...]
