Product Review: eos Lip Balm Smooth Spheres

Reviewer: Cinnamon Kitten

Brand: eos
Name: Lip Balm Smooth Sphere
Size: 025 oz / 7 g
Price: approx. $3.29 USD

Scent Tried: Summer Fruit

I hate using any lip products that come in pots because I dislike using my fingers to apply lip product, especially when I'm on the go. eos has recently launched a new collection of lip balms and I was excited to try them out. I love eos' shaving creams because their packaging is really different from other shaving creams - they have a soft, rubbery package and no metal (no rust) and a simple pump.

Their lip products come in the same soft, rubbery packaging, and they also came up with a very unique design - a round little ball! Let's just say that it's a whole new way to apply lip balm!

To Purr About:
- love that it's USDA certified organic and all-natural
- the scent is fruity, but very light
- the lip balm is almost tasteless, which is nice
- very light and moisturizing
- round shape makes application really quick and easy
- i love the slightly rubbery, soft packaging (same as their shaving cream packaging)
- easy, twist-off top

Claws Out:
- round shape takes up a lot of space in a purse
- not sure how easy it will be to apply once the shape gets a little flatter (I haven't used it enough to use up the "round" shape yet)
- lip balm doesn't stay very long

Final Comments:
This product has lots of "cute" factor, the top is easy to twist off and the lip balm is light and fragrant. I also love what the packaging is made of - it has a soft, slightly rubbery feel. The lip balm is soft and moisturizing, but doesn't have as much staying power as some other lip balms I use. The fragrance and quite light, but nice and the price is very affordable. Once you get use to the round shape of the product, it's really quick and easy to apply (I can apply lip balm to both top and bottom lip at the same time) but I'm not sure what's gioing to happen when the round shape gets used up and it flattens out more.

Rating (out of 5):
