Employees of an organic cosmetics store exposed a message Wednesday to shoppers at Westfield Annapolis Mall that a little junk in the trunk is nothing to be ashamed of, so long as the trunk is made of reused or recycled materials.

Three women at Lush Fresh Handmade Cosmetics disrobed to nothing but their aprons for a 30-minute publicity stunt, encouraging customers to buy "naked" products, or items that are free of boxes, bottles, shrink wrap and all other packaging. They handed out literature about the dangers of packaging materials that they say pile up in landfills and use 8 percent of the world's oil resources.
