    Yes! I was looking to try some more natural products and these are paraben free so no nasty cancer causing components. I used the body lotion this morning and it is really good. Very hydrating and easily absorbed. The product mix is good and as a trial set excellent value for £20. I ordered two to avoid potage so spent £40 and only disappointment is that both bags are exactly the same. Disappointment is short lived though and I think they are excellent value. I shouldn't really have bought as I have far too much already but can see myself gifting the other stuff and keeping this.
  • I've thanked you, but it's just cost me as I'm not able to resist any more! :D & thanks op too
    Now thanks to Tommix & Queen Bear, now Lady Westy of Woodpecker :)
  • I have been deliberating over whether to buy this as it is not a necessity. Just given in and ordered one. I love Burts Bees!

    Lol we are all so weak willed! It's like the bodyshop bargains that I still have stashed! Still they make for great presents and do keep well. Can't wait till mine arrive :)

    I'm allergic to palm oil - anyone know if they use it in their products?

    A quick google says yes they do use palm oil. I'll check products later too. That's a tough allergy to have, must be a nightmare to avoid.
  • After reading all the great comments, just had to order :j
  • Yep, me too. Thought it would be great for presents.

    No,No, too late one fell in my basket together with 2 little lip balm/hand salve kits, thought they would make good teacher gifts for less than a fiver each, this board does NOT save me money!
    Thanks op;)
