NEW YORK- Excitement is mounting everywhere as people are being scrubbed, washed and moisturized with the newest creation to the Pookie family; Pookamint™ body. Well-known for their scrumptious all natural lip balms, Pookie splashed into the cosmetic industry first with a lip balm, then a color balm followed more recently by lip and eye pencils, and now the Pookamint™ body line.

The bath and body line includes everything one could need to get their skin in perfect form for their “Pookie.” Offering a complete treatment, the line includes Pookamint™ Buffing Polish, Pookamint™ Body Wash, and Pookamint™ Body Lotion! The wonderful Pookamint™ Buffing Polish ($22 retail) is a great sugar scrub for the whole body made with rice oil and rosemary to exfoliate, smooth and refresh the skin. Lather the nourishing Pookamint™ Body Wash ($16 retail) onto skin and feel the cooling and cleaning sensation of the green tea and Dead Sea salt. And end the invigorating shower experience with a creamy and extremely moisturizing Pookamint™ Body Lotion ($16 retail) that will leave the skin silky smooth. The body lotion contains vitamin e, which provides a smooth layer of natural sun protection for your skin.

“The Pookamint™ bath and body line is something we have wanted to do for a while,” explains Gianine Rothschild, co-owner of Pookie™. “We take pride in offering all natural lip balms, and wanted to develop a product that would be soothing to the skin in a natural way, and keep the fun, fresh feel of the Pookie name. The Pookamint™ line really does that, and we are excited to see where Pookie goes from here.”

Scented after the staple lip balm Apookalips, the Pookamint body line has a cool minty-fresh scent that is refreshing in any shower and will awaken the skin. Like all Pookie products, the Pookamint Body Line is all-natural and is a refreshing combination of Spearmint, Vanilla, and Peppermint oils that will refresh and nourish the skin. Pookie products are not tested on animals, and all packaging is 100% recyclable. All Pookie products are sold online at www.pookiestore.com, as well as in a variety of beauty retailers on the Web, and select retailers nationwide. For more retail information, call 866-4-POOKIE.
