Homebase: Westminster, BC Zinc-free Bum Bum Balm (approximately $6 wholesale ) is the "balm" for parents who want an organic diaper cream. Made of pure, cruelty-free ingredients, Jen Casey's creation swaps the usual zinc for Canadian beeswax that provides a great smelling, moisture resistant barrier against the skin. Zinc renders cloth diapers waterproof (something that isn't a problem with beeswax), so the Balm is a must for non-disposable diaper-wearers.  Tel: 604 395-6262 E-mail: Orders@dimpleskinsnaturals.com
