Giveaway Time — Savannah Bee Royal Jelly Body Butter Duo

Savannah Bee Royal Jelly Body Butter
Savannah Bee Royal Jelly Body Butter

I have an amazing giveaway as a Valentine’s Gift to my readers!  One lucky lady will win both the original Savannah Bee Royal Jelly Body Butter and the Royal Jelly Body Butter for Sensitive Skin!  They both smell fantastic, but different. The original smells like sweet berries and the sensitive skin smells soft and soothing.  Keep both, keep one and give one away, or if you are too nice, give both away!  Here is the info on the body butters:

The original Royal Jelly Body Butter (red box) glides on with the sweet fragrance of a Southern Spring. The fragrance of wild berries and vanilla combined with the velvety aroma of rose and gardenia conjures up yearlong warmth and the grace of the Genteel South. Rose of Clay offers the rose-colored hue along with a gentle pull on impurities. Our classic body butter formula provides deep moisturizing and delivers multivitamins and antioxidants to keep your skin the way it was born to bee. Use all day for a fresh berry day lift!

This indescribably soft, elegant and indulgent Sensitive Skin Formula Body Butter (blue box) combines the peace-filling fragrance of chamomile with the divine scent of myrrh. Chamomile is said to calm the nerves and soothe dry skin. This treat is great for reducing stress and for targeting any annoying skin problems. The Gypsies bathed with chamomile to bring luck and good fortune. Use in the morning to glide into your day with the right mindedness and use at night to unwind for those beautiful dreams ahead.

These are the 1.65 oz sizes of each and the price is $12.90 each for a $25.80 value! They are available at http://www.savannahbee.com.

To enter, leave a comment.  U.S. residents only.  I will pick a winner on Friday, February 13th, 2015.  Good Luck!
