I like Satya Organics which I originally ordered to combat perioral dermatitis but now whack on as a lip balm before a run. It's also women and indigenous owned. They have a small travel tin (which you can refill if you get the home compost pouch) which doubles as a lipbalm

La Roche-Posay lip balm is the best imho. French company, so not Canadian.
You can make your own. Buy beeswax at a local farmers market. There are a number of recipes and ideas out there and it can be kind of fun,.
Not a bad idea. Definitely looking for convenience at the moment, but that sounds like it could be fun down the road!
Thanks for the heads up about fisherman brand. Never heard of them!
I remember Green Beaver's lip balm being decent, but they're not a stick like Burt's. Just searching with you:
The well site turned up this gem.
Attitude brand looks promising too.
[edit to add scentuals. I haven't tried their lip "conditioner" but have used other products from them in the past and been happy with em]
No problem, I just recently learned of them myself! Going to stop into a local drug mart this weekend as they show up as a retailers. I’ll check those other ones out too.
The Apothecary in Calgary has a series of lip balms made in-house, that all have beeswax in them (they have complete ingredient listings for all their products on their site)
The tins are approx. twice the price of a Burt's tube, and you're also getting ~3 times the volume of product, so it's a decent trade off.
If there any hives around/outside your city, they may manufacture lip balms as well. Pop in if they advertise visits - or there may be a communal apiarist run shop like we have here - all the bee related products you could hope for, produced by the hives of the local beekeepers.
I forgot about this place! Looks like they have almond oil in their lip balms, so I can’t use them, but a good reminder to check out the rest of their stuff again.
