I know it has to do with what they eat, but what do both eat?

The white rhino, with wide lips generally eats grass, wide lips are better adapted to grabbing grass, think of cows and horses.
The black rhino has "pointed" lips, with fingerlike projections. These rhinos generally live in open woodland. They consume leaves from trees and brush. Pointed lips are better able to manipulate and grasp leaves while avoiding twigs or thorns. Other examples of animals with this kind of lip are donkeys and tapirs.

The black rhinoceros has pointed lips, the white rhino has straight lips. In fact the name "white" rhino is not "white" as in the colour but from the Afrikaans word for "wide" referring to the lip shape. Pointed lips are better for eating bushes and shrubs, straight lips are better for grass.

Lipgloss does now not make u seem "salivaish" it makes ur lips seem glossed and shimmery (as a consequence lip GLOSS). If u purchase well first-class lipgloss, it does now not seem greasy an dslimy in any respect. I will supply u that a few gloss can also be slimy, however that's the affordable greenback retailer stuff. Lip Smackers, MAC, Benefit, and every other situated beauty corporations make well first-class gloss. Believe me, it's valued at it to pay a pair further greenbacks for a well lip gloss. And as for glitter gloss, it does now not seem like glitter glue whether it is well first-class. So, that's the factor of lipgloss.
