INDIGO
WILD recently introduced an impressive line of all-natural products for
men. The Zar Men’s line consists of soap, lotion, after shave tonic
and cologne. The Zar Men’s Lotion contains ingredients such as shea
butter, meadowfoam seed oil, aloe vera, avocado and carrot oils to help
moisten dry skin. The Zar Men’s Soap combines sandalwood and other
pure essential oils with goat’s milk. The Zar Men’s After Shave
Tonic has a light, refreshing citrusy scent that is used to provide moisture
after a close shave. The Zar Men’s Cologne has a nice sweet, woodsy
smell that is invigorating. Our tester liked their clean and refreshing
scents as well as how these products moisturized his skin. He replaced
his other natural products with these. (800) 361-5686, 
ECO
LIPS announces a premium lip care line with over 85% organic ingredients
to protect and moisturize the lips. Four new formulas to choose from.
Lemon-Lime Bee Free is a vegan lip balm with the superior skin softening
properties of organic palm wax. Gold is the ultimate lip moisturizer due
to its great amount of jojoba. Medicinal contains an herbal blend of organic
tea tree oil, lysine, organic calendula and organic lemon balm, which
is designed to provide relief from cold sores. Hemp is infused with herbs,
vitamins and hemp for soft and supple lips. Our testers found these to
be some of the best lip balms on the market. (866) 326-5477, 
CHO-PAT,
INC. manufactures and distributes the Dual Action Knee Strap, a device
designed to provide relief for painful or weakened knees. When strapped
on, it stabilizes and tightens the kneecap mechanism by applying pressure
to the surrounding areas of the knee, reducing the likelihood of tension
and erosion of the patella tendon from possible misalignment of the quadriceps.
The strap allows full mobility. Our tester was very satisfied with the
product and reported it helped his knee condition. (800) 221-1601, 
EARTH offers a line of well-made quality footwear for men and women featuring
a patented technology that promotes a natural way of walking. Each shoe
has a soft, contoured foot-bed that molds to the shape of the foot and
a shock-absorbing mid-sole for impact protection. Classic and Fairfield
are just a couple of the shoes offered: Classic– This Oxford shoe
is good looking, with gently rounded box toes, riveted eyelets and double-reinforced
stitching. Our tester had suffered a knee injury and walking has been
a painful experience. He found these shoes comfortable and noticed that
the rocking motion technology of the heel made it easier and less painful
to walk. They have now become his favorite shoe.
