What's L'Bri?
L'Bri is a company based in Mukwonago, Wisconsin that specializes in chemical-free skin-care products. So what's the mystery? Water. That's the number one ingredient in most skin care products. L'Bri doesn't include water - you can get that from your tap. Instead, L'Bri's first ingredient is aloe vera.

Linda Bishop will be on hand to present the products and have you try them too! L'Bri holiday products make great stocking stuffers!
