The Lote Tree – A Giveaway

by Christine - From Dates to Diapers on April 14, 2008

I believe I would be safe to say that we all love to be pampered with sweet smelling soaps, luxurious bubble baths, silky massage creams, and silky lotions, right?

Luxury BarsWell, I recently discovered The Lote Tree, where “everything is handmade, with love!” All of the products from The Lote Tree are hand stirred, poured and cut, patiently cured for several weeks, hand-stamped and hand-labeled. As a plus, they contain no animal by-products.

One of my favorites is the “Bambini Bar,” a gentle and fragrance-free soap, made with Coconut Oil, Olive Oil, Palm Oils, Shea Butter and Cocoa Butter. Even just washing my hands with this luxury bar is a sweet treat!

You can enter to win a “Hippy Rose” Cocoa Butter Bath Truffle, “Emerald Isle” bar soap, and a sample of Vegan “Needle Leaf” Laundry Soap from The Lote Tree, just in time for Mother’s Day.

Here’s what you have to do to enter:

Visit, and browse around The Lote Tree… There is so much to see! Then come back and leave a comment here, by midnight April 21st April 25th , mentioning your favorite item in the shop. A winner will be chosen, at random, notified, and announced here on Tuesday, April 22nd Saturday, April 26th. (Please make sure you leave me an email address or blog address, otherwise your entry will be deleted!)

And, if you would like an extra entry, you can spread the word by linking to this giveaway and to The Lote Tree. Make sure you sign the Mr. Linky (only if you decide to help spread the word) with the exact link to your post to receive the second entry.

Good luck!

This giveaway is now closed!

Congratulations to mimi, who said, “I love anything with olive oil in it. My husbands grandmother used olive on her skin all the time and she had such soft, radiant skin at 94!! I’m sure the product is delightful and I look forward to trying it.”

Be Sociable, Share!
