Rocky Mountain Lip Repair

It's dry up here in the Rockies. In the winter, the humidity drops down to like 12% or something crazy like that. So I usually have to carry a chap stick or three around with me. I've tried Carmex, but it's too hard up here. When it's 24 degrees outside, the stuff sets up like concrete. Then, at some point, I stumbled across this little Carmex-like tub of lip balm called "Rocky Mountain Lip Repair". I have no idea where I found this stuf, but it's the bomb. It's softer than Carmex, so it's easier to apply. I've looked everywhere for it, but could never locate any for sale. So, I finally broke down and checked out their website at Rocky Mountain Sunscreen. This site has the right logo, but doesn't mention "Rocky Mountain Lip Repair" at all, so I called them today and they told me it was discontinued, but they were thinking about restarting production because they got so many calls for it. She said they still had some old inventory laying around, so I asked her to send me a crate of the stuff. Here's hoping they re-start the production lines.

Hey Rob,
can you give me a sample if/when you get it? Norine has this problem too and I would love to get her to try something new.
Thanks

Sure, Enrico. It's already here. I'll give some to Jennifer to give to Isabella.

Hi,

Well this is disappointing. I haven't found anything that compares. I've used this product for years and am slowly running out of my supply. I don't see this product on the Rocky Mountain Sunscreen site so I'm assuming it has not been resurrected. Wahhh! Let me know if you know otherwise. Thanks.

Thanks for posting this. Many years ago, I purchased a little jar or Rocky Mountain Lip Repair while wandering around Estes Park. I was so happily surprised by how this lip balm worked. I love it. But unfortunately I eventually ran out and have not been able to find this product since. The little store I bought it at isn't even open anymore. Thank you so much for your post. I will contact the manufacturer as well. My lips aren't dreading winter so much anymore.
