I was so excited to try the EOS lipbalm as I've seen so many YT's uncap these cute little ball balms but was so disappointed in its moisturising power.

It did nothing to hydrate my lips as it just created a waxy texture on it. They have a lovely fragrance and a wide range of flavours but it does not do what a lip balm should. The only awesome thing about it in my opinion, is the packaging. It's so adorable and easy to take everywhere.

The international hype around this brand is definitely something they can be proud of. Celeb music videos and promotional ads isn't always easy to achieve so good for them!

But the actual Lip Balm is not that great. Yes it is moisturizing and it smells great but there are better products out there and they are more affordable.

I guess it's just one of those products that you need to try once so you can brag (like I did) and then go back to using other lip products.

A relative brought these over from abroad for me and as much as I wanted to like this balm because of all the hoopla surrounding it, I just couldn't! Ofcourse there's a lot of positive factors about it like being chemical free and 95 percent organic etc ,for me it just doesn't function as a lip balm should. Its goes on smooth but wears off too quickly and after a bit my lips feel dry. Labello puts this away by far! All stars for the packaging and yummy flavors though.

I purchased my EOS overseas and when I got home I had friends literally offering me R200 for an EOS when I paid R30 for one of them! Ever since all the celebrity pictures of these emerged they have been THE THING.

I bought Pomegrante, Honeydew, Sweet Mint and the orange one which I can't recall the flavour of.

I love their circular packing, the twisty top and the fact that everyone asks where you got yours but I do not find them very hydrating at all. I'd say these are more statement lipbalms than anything else.
