Splendid Spheres of Refreshing Comfort!
READ CAREFULLY: I have secret but POWERFUL information which will help you in choosing beauty products wisely. Several years ago, my wonderful mother had nine heart attacks in one night and another the following day. After that came emergency quadruple-bypass surgery, which she survived very well. The big problem? She was in a rehab center, and the aids let an open wound where they removed pa...read morert of an artery uncovered and it became infected. She had to have extensive plastic surgery. I recall driving her to the plastic surgeon's office often for check-ups after he repaired the wound. I wouldn't read the magazines--I would wander around the deluxe facility, staring at a copious number of shelves all stacked with sparkling, beckoning tubs and bottles of creams meant to help skin heal and look good. One day I asked the surgeon which products he favored over the others for complexion and body care in general. He candidly whispered to me, "Forget about buying anything here. I sell them because people specifically ask for them. If you want to treat your skin well, turn to Shea and Cocoa Butters." I'll never forget those words . . . Shea and Cocoa Butters! Shea Butter is just one ingredient in the EOS (Evolution of Smooth) Lip Balms found in drugstores everywhere. Other ingredients--depending on which tempting version you choose--include Vitamin E, pure Beeswax, Coconut Oil, and Jojoba Seed Oil to sooth, smooth, and heal. I love the container. The flat end enables it to stay put on the nightstand next to our bed (also known as an "apothecary shelf"), but it's simply fun to play with (consider it a small lip balm/stress-relieving ball). There is never an aggravating tacky feel--it smooths on with extreme ease. I also love the different varieties. I first tried "Honeysuckle Honeydew," "Sweet Mint," and "Pomegranate Raspberry." My husband bought me "Summer Fruit," and I accidentally(!) happened to see a charming duo in "Easter/Spring" which will be appearing in my Easter basket. The preparation is not heavy enough for severely dry lips--I layer Blistex, Carmex, and Chapstick when my lips are truly chapped and split from cold weather or dry heat. But it works well enough to keep your pout kissably soft. The scents are absolutely delightful; I can't get enough!This review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 10 of 16 people said helpful

So far so good
I've been intrigued with these for sometime and recently made the purchase. I like that it's a light flavor that doesn't taste too mediciney. It does make my lips soft and I like how it's easy to apply on my lips. I wish it was a little bit creamier like lypsyl, but the package is still new, so maybe.This review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 12 of 13 people said helpful

EOS ORGANIC LIP BALM - SMOOTH SPHERE
I own every flavor of the EOS lip balms, and the honeydew one is one of my favorites in terms of scent. I absolutely love the packaging and the shape of the lip balm. The ball lets you swipe the product over both lips at the same time. What would make the packaging even more convenient is if they kept the same shape but made it into a flip top so that you don't have to take that extra step to unsc...read morerew/screw the top and worry about dropping it. As much as I love the sheer novelty of EOS lip balms, it really doesn't do a great job in moisturizing very dry lips. I find myself having to reapply a lot. But I keep using these things just because they're so darn cute and smell so darn good. I really hope the company will consider making improvements. First of all, Honeysuckle Honeydew is my favorite flavor of the three eos smooth spheres I own (I also have the Sweet Mint and Strawberry Sorbet). I can see why people would say it feels a little waxy, but what I don't understand is what they would think a lip balm would feel like if it wasn't waxy... this feels the same on my lips as any other lip balm, and it feels great!!! This isn't extremely mousturizing, I use plain boring chapstick for that. ;) But when my lips aren't in need of extreme mousture, these eos smooth spheres are great and smell delicious! Plus, what cute packaging. That's my favorite part. :) I reccomend this! Definitely! It's not a lip healer, but does soften my lips. Perfect for just wearing when you don't want to wear lip gloss/lipstick. This taste and smells so delicious! The container itself is super cute and very unqiue. I will definitely be purchasing this again. I thought this was a cute product and brought it even though it wasn't on sale at CVS. I love the scent of honeydew and it has a pleasant sweet taste. But I don't find this lip balm moisturizing at all - and it's extremely waxy so it's no good under lipsticks.This review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 20 of 28 people said helpful

Just alright... too bulky
The packaging is a bit bulky compared to the usual lip balm tube. Applying it is a little weird because of the shape. The product itself isn't very soft, and seems to only be average in terms of moisturizing. I don't think I would buy this again.This review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 7 of 22 people said helpful

LOVE!
I cannot believe I waited so long to buy one of these! I have been intrigued by them literally for years and finally bought myself one at Target a couple weeks ago. I chose Strawberry Sorbet and instantly fell in love. For everyday use around the office or on weekends when I'm out and about I prefer a lip product with color, but for the drive home or hanging around the house (and at bedtime!) I pr...read moreefer just a basic, no-color lip balm and that's where these little gems come in. The scent is amazing, but not overwhelming, and the flavor isn't overwhelming either. I find that any lip balm or gloss with a strong flavor or bad texture (or both!) makes my fiance complain when he kisses me. The flavor and texture on these are so amazing he actually borrowed one yesterday! After the strawberry sorbet I found a great deal on a 4 pack, so now I also have summer fruits, sweet mint, honeydew honeysuckle, and another strawberry sorbet. Except for summer fruits they are all equally light on the scent, and even the more strongly scented summer fruits is still pleasantly light on flavor. The texture on these is amazing as well--light and moisturizing, and surprisingly long lasting. The packaging is fun and great, though I know I'll be frustrated with it the next time I switch to a tiny handbag because they are a bit bulky. I absolutely love the shape of the product itself--I find the spherical shape soothing, almost massage-like, to apply. These are definitely a new staple for me now--great quality and great price!This review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 2 of 2 people said helpful

love
The EOS balm is organic, so I know it will never irritate my lips. The packaging is super adorable! The formula is creamy and thick on my lips, but I find that it absorbs quickly. The scents are refreshing, but do not stay on lips. This balm is quite moisturizing and I tend to apply it often because its so fun! The large size makes it easy to apply on both lips with just one swipe. I love this lip balm! It's very moisturizing and smoothing!This review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 23 of 23 people said helpful

MMMM, yummy smell!
I rated this product a 10 for many reasons. I love the fact that it's pink, has a wonderful dessert smell yet isn't a real dessert so I can't have unhealthy treats, and really does a great job of hydrating my lips. The little egg case is super cute and easy to pack in my little makeup bag or in a storage drawer I keep all my chap sticks in. It opens easily as you just turn the top, and the actu...read moreal product feels smooth going on. I like to put it on anytime I feel like my lips are getting a bit dry, but I especially like to apply it at night right before I go to bed so it hydrates them while I sleep. I have never had any kind of allergic reaction to it, and I think it's safe for all skin types. It usually runs for about $2.99 everywhere I have looked (even my favorite store Target) but I believe I saw a 2 pack at Target recently for $5.99. It's still the same price but getting two in a pack is nice as well. I think this is a great hydrating lip product if you suffer from chapped lips, or just need some moisture. Highly recommend!This review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 1 of 1 people said helpful

Cute packaging....
The balm is good but not that different to other ones. It has an average texture but sometimes the product hardens which makes it hard to rub off on your lips. I love that my flaky skin from my lips comes right off after I apply this. I bought the strawberry one and it lasted a good two months or so since I use it every day. Recently I purchased the summer fruit and the smell was horrible at first...read more but because I use it every day i got used to it. It's not as moisturizing as I would like but it's really good under matte lipsticks so that it still has that matte look without looking too glossy.This review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 2 of 2 people said helpful

Not long lasting
I am a lip balm junkie and was attracted to the different packaging and the organic ingredients. However, the package turned out to be incredibly bulky and impractical for lip balm. The smell was subtle and pleasant; the shine was natural. I admit that I am very particular about my balms and this one didn't take the cake. For me, I have to constantly reapply. It provides very little moisture, even...read more when I go over my mouth again and again. I have noticed that some formulas are better than others, but it is really hit or miss.This review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 3 of 7 people said helpful
