Lip balms are my obsession. They’d be my desert island
essential, and I absolutely cannot cope with having chapped lips. During my
time I’ve owned countless balms, but never managed to get my hands on one from
the arguably most coveted brand, EOS.
That was until recently when I attended the Glamour BeautyFestival and picked up one from the FeelUnique stand. At last I’m finally in
possession of a Coconut Milk EOS Lip Balm – but is it worth the hype?
What Makes The Visibly Soft EOS Coconut Milk Lip Balm Special?
Enriched with cocoa and shea butters and four different
moisturising oils, the Coconut Milk lip balm is designed to make your lips visibly
smoother and softer, whilst also sealing in moisture. It's also free from parabens, Not having tried the
brand’s previous balms first hand before I can’t compare directly with their
other balm collections. However I can say that the light formula is non-sticky
and very moisturising. I found that mine needed to be worked a little to get it
warmed up first before it applied properly, but I don’t know if that’s down to
the cold weather we’ve been having!
As for the fragrance, the Coconut Milk scent is really
gorgeous and sweet without being sickly. I’m a coconut fan anyway, it always reminds
me of summer holidays abroad, so of course I knew it’d be right up my street!
The packaging is no different to any other EOS lip balm, its
iconic spherical shape and colourful packaging is what makes these little balms
so great. Having tried the cube-shaped Balmi brand before, I’m no stranger to
how these are used, and have to say the round shape is very tactile and
aesthetically pleasing.
The only thing that visually sets this apart from the brand’s
previous balms is the addition of the two-tone stripes. In a pastel and candy
pink, what’s not to love?!
Other than that there’s not really a lot more to say about
this balm, apart from the fact that it’ll be joining me inside my handbag for
all future journeys!
What’s your go-to lip balm? Leave me a comment below!
Until next time..
