I'm looking for a lip salve or gloss

I'm looking for a lip salve or gloss that repels hair, if there is such a thing. For many years I've put up with hair catching on my lips, but now it's not just my hair, it's the fur shedding from a furry heated throw. Practically overnight it's begun driving me crazy. I suppose it's too much to hope for hair repellent, though, so has anyone found something that hair doesn't stick to?

I’m 58 and have fought this battle my entire life. Add a cuddly cat to the mix and I’m forever removing hair from my lips and face.

Looks like we're doomed, eh?

Would a lip oil be better? They are definitely less sticky than a gloss, still not perfect though.

That sounds interesting. I didn't even know there were such things.

This Rimmel lipgloss is reasonably non-sticky, but on the other hand I find that it does need touching up more often. It's nice and hydrating too. I've got the dark brown one (Mellow Mocha) and you can really control the colour from a light purple tint to a full Goth look depending on how you apply it.
