Lips Bites!

The Bite

Use eco lip balm on your next prairie rustle. While conventional balms are made with petroleum, plant-based options are now widely available and will rescue your parched pucker lickety-split. Now ride.

The Benefits

• Being healthy as a horse. Researchers have linked impurities in petrolatum (a common ingredient in many lip balms) to breast cancer; hence, the EU’s restrictions on its use.
• Spur-ning oil. Once the world’s petroleum reserves are gone, they’re gone.

Personally Speaking...

A few of us claim that we’re addicted to lip balm, but we looked into it and it’s just psychological – your lips won’t build up a physical dependence (well, as long as you avoid those heroin-flavored versions).
