Press Release:
Literati Vegan Lip Balm is for the Cerebrally Chapped.
(PORTLAND, OREGON, July 10, 2004): No more chapped lips for the literary community! Recently launched, Literati Vegan Lip Balm pays homage to prolific authors, while puckering up prodigies, giving writers a whimsical wipe, salving satirical suckers, and offering the laymen a little lip lovin’.
Authors getting lip service—ShakeSpearmint (William Shakespeare), PoeMegranate (Edgar allan Poe), Alcott Apricot (Louisa May Alcott), and Bronte Berry (Charlotte Bronte).
Been a little too seriously lately? LadyLiscious'* new line of tinned wit—Literati—is just what your life coach ordered. Literati is not only a great remedy for cracked lips, but refreshing inspiration from the balmy Bard just might grease the skids over writer’s block!
Conceived deep in the mahogany stacks at Portland's downtown library, Literati's concept was a collision of literature and dry lips. The solution? These little rogues of relief.
Picking up this clever conversation piece makes clear the labor of literary love that goes into each tin. Stamped with a relevant quote from the author, each balm also comes with a matching bookmark as bold and bright as its flavor. Whether writers, readers, or passersby, Literati will catch eyes (and lips) at bookstores, boutiques, novelty shops, festivals, nonprofits.
Committed to promoting social change, Literati will donate $.05 from every tin in 2005 to nonprofits that work toward ensuring every person has access to education, literacy and educational supplies. For more on Literati's contribution to the world, check out their website: www.literatibalm.com.
