Personal product review of Chicken Poop lip junk
Posted by Diane Conklin
Did your mama ever tell you to put chicken poop on your chapped lips? That way you wouldn't be tempted to lick them.
I found the answer to pleasing mama and keeping your lips from becoming chapped in the first place. It's called Chicken Poop lip junk, and if you read the fine print on the tube it says "contains no poop".
I picked this little gem up at the checkout when I visited the Moberly MO Orscheln Farm & Home store on my way out of town to a trail ride on a cold windy spring day. I applied the lip junk as I was driving down the highway since my lips were already somewhat dry from all the trailer loading activities. Wow, I thought as I tasted a very original combination of ingredients on my lips. I had not taken time to read the package before I began driving and now couldn't make out the print because I certainly couldn't take my eyes off the road. I began to wonder about the intelligence of buying lip balm that is called chicken poop and applying it before actually reading the label.
Arriving at the trail head, unloading the horses and tacking up took a while and I hadn't given another thought to my lip condition. As I was about to mount the saddle I decided to make sure I had my tube of Chicken Poop in my pocket.
My horse even thought it had an original smell.
As we headed down the trail a cold brisk wind smacked us right in the face and yes, that was drops of rain sprinkled in the breeze. The horses slowed a bit as they hoped we would turn back for the trailers since it was starting to drizzle. I took advantage of this opportunity to pull out my recent purchase and slathered my lips with Chicken Poop.
Two hours later as we returned to camp at a quick pace and tucked the horses away in their stalls for the night I realized my lips felt fantastic. How could this be with all the cold wind and rain? Of course, it was the Chicken Poop lip junk I had applied right before we left camp.
All my riding buddies were complaining of chapped lips but all I could do was smile and offer them some of my newest treasure, Chicken Poop lip junk!
I did finally read the entire label and it contains wonderful ingredients such as: avocado oil, beeswax, jojoba oil, and vitamin E among other things. This will be a staple from now on in my trail pack.
