Your skin can absorb up to 60% of the products you put on it, and since your lips are much thinner than the rest of your epidermis, you should seriously consider pampering that pucker. Look for balms, sticks and salves with a high concentration of botanical smoothing ingredients like plant oils, fruit essences, nut butters and mineral tints. Kiss My Face makes an irresistible lip balm infused with chamomile, goldenseal and peppermint oil. Avoid preservatives and petroleum byproducts. Beeswax and jojoba oil — both found in Boscia's Salve Stick — do just as good a job sans the synthetics. If you have a sensitive mouth steer clear of essential oils, which may be slightly harsh. Dr. Bronner's all-organic "Naked" balm is free of irritants. And for the ultimate in "green" beauty, Cargo's PlantLove lipstick is entirely biodegradable. The tube is made of corn and the carton is embedded with wildflower seeds that sprout when you plant it.
