Buy lip balm, help women in need

The Body Shop is well known for its history of campaigns to raise money for environmental and social causes. This year, one of their efforts is a new special-edition "For Me, For You" Shea Lip Care Duo—a pair of lip balms packed with ingredients such as coconut oil, beeswax and shea butter. The package is available in stores and online for $15, about $9 of which will go to The Canadian Women’s Foundation to support their work helping women who are exposed to domestic violence. The balms also help support more than 400 women in Ghana, who produce shea butter for The Body Shop through fair trade.
