Happy Easter!
I was buying lip balms like crazy lately and a lot of them are egg-shaped. So I decided that they’re going to be a great topic for today. These products come in a very attractive packaging. If you are in a room with complete strangers and you apply one of these on your lips everyone is going to be interested in what’s this egg-shaped thing. So here is what I think about each one of these lip balms:
EOS lip balm (link) - This product is quite popular. It’s not so pricy but it used to be very hard to find. I bought mine in England and it costed me around 6 pounds. The flavour that I have is Strawberry Sorbet, which is just a strawberry aroma. Because of all the bad reviews I’d read I expected a lip balm that does not hydrate the lips at all, but I was pleasantly surprised. I would say that I like it and I would even buy it again. I think that there are a few Facebook pages in Bulgaria that sell it, but you can’t find it in the stores. You get 7 g. of product in the packaging. This lip balm has a clear colour.
Flomar care 4 lips - This lip balm is new and it’s a dupe for the EOS lip balm. I bought the one called Watermelon milkshake, to me it smells like some sort of bubblegum. The nice thing about this lip balm is that it has SPF15. When I opened it for the first time the packaging broke. And I bought it just because of the packaging! The lip balm itself is not bad, I would even say that it’s more hydrating than the EOS lip balm. The good news is that at least I can get to the product and still use it. You get 11 g. in the packaging. This lip balm too does not have colour.
Sephora Kiss me lip balm - This product is a little different from the other ones, because it’s actually quite pigmented and it even leaves the lips glossy. I have the shade Strawberry Fizz, it’s a strawberry flavour, but it’s not the typical one, it’s more like strawberry syrup. Because of the shape application can be a challenge, but I still like it. It hydrates the lips, but it does not do miracles. You get 5,8 g. of product.
