The French Fry Lip Balm Will Have You Licking Your Lips

— July 23, 2011 — Fashion
Whether you're trying to eat healthier or just can't get to your favorite fast food joint whenever you want, the French Fry Lip Balm from the NeatoShop is just what you need in times of junk food-craving crisis.

The $3 lip balm comes in a package that resembles a box of french fries and even better, it tastes just like french fries. When all you want is a salty, greasy snack, you can pop off the lid and lather the French Fry lip balm onto your lips for lip-smacking goodness without the guilt that sometimes follows a trip to a fast food restaurant.

NeatoShop also sells a variety of other flavored lip balms, like bacon, corn dog, nacho, cupcake and pickle.
