Snow glare, dry cold and 40 km/h ridge wind. GUST holds a heavy wax seal on the lip line at temperatures where thinner balms simply disappear.
- Heavy cold-stable wax seal that survives ridge wind
- Non-nano mineral zinc for high-glare sun exposure
- Propolis resin cover on cracked, split lip tissue
- One-ounce tin with the same round label as the rest of the line, plus a 10 ml glass roller for the trail
The product story
Most lip balms are built for a commute. GUST is built for glacier glare and a headwind on the col. A heavy beeswax seal carries non-nano zinc for mineral sun defense and propolis for resin cover, with rosehip seed oil doing the repair work on tissue that's already split. It stays workable at cold temperatures instead of going to stone in your chest pocket.

The tallow standard
GUST is poured on locally sourced grass-fed beef tallow — leaf and kidney suet from Similkameen and Nicola valley ranches, wet-rendered twice, salt-washed and filtered to 25 micron. It is sebum-identical, carries vitamins A, D, E and K2 in their native fat, and it is the majority of the batch by weight in every salve, stick and roller we make.
