My favorite lip balms aren't from Asia but from the USA: The eos (evolution of smooth) - Sphere Lip Balms. I just love these natural lip balms and got three (3) flavours: Honeysuckle Honeydew, Sweet Mint & Tangerine (Medicated).
I purchased them in Hong Kong/ Taiwan but they're made in USA!

The sphere lip balms are available in the following flavours:
- Honeysuckle Honeydew
- Summer Fruits
- Sweet Mint
- Strawberry Sorbet
- Passion Fruit
- Lemon Drop
- Tangerine (Medicated)
Description: To keep your lips looking and feeling healthy. We created this 95% organic, 100% natural lip balm that's petrolatum & paraben free, just like you.
Each lip balm is housed in a rounded, egg-like container with a twist-off lid and contains 7g!
Every flavour got another color! I got Honeysuckle Honeydew (green), Sweet Mint (blue) and Medicated Tangerine (orange).
Some details I found online:
In a smooth sphere for easy application that precisely glides on lips,
this lip balm has broad spectrum UVA/UVB protection. This lip balm
contains Vitamin E, shea butter and jojoba oil to keep your lips
kissably smooth.
The lip balms contain Phenol 0,5% (antibacterial) plus, Coconut Oil, Olive Fruit Oil, Beeswax, Jojoba Seed Oil, Shea Butter, Pomegranate Seed Oil, Ginger Root Extract, Acai Fruit Extract, Sunflower Seed Oil, Sesame Seed Oil, Pepermint Oil, Honeydew Melon Seed Extract and/ or Honeysuckle Flower Extract.
Tangerine (Medicated)
Honeysuckle Honeydew
Sweet Mint
The lip balms have a off white/ yellowish color but go on completely clear. They are very smooth and glide easily on my lips. I like the round shape a lot!!
The scents are so-so... My favorite atm is Honeysuckle Honeydew. It has a slight honeydew (melon) scent and tastes very sweet/ sugary.
Sweet Mint got that minty scent and a cooling effect.
The Tangerine one doesn't have a very strong scent. I expected something more fruity or citrus-like but I barely can smell tangerine out of it. Maybe because it's medicated?!
How to use: Apply to lips as often as needed!
Price (each): around 4,- €/ US$5

What I love:
Just love them!!
What I don’t like:
The scents are not always the best but I still like the balms.
Will I buy this again? Yes, will but Summer Fruits, Strawberry Sorbet or Passion Fruit as well.
Honeysuckle Honeydew & Sweet Mint sound yummy! haha <3
ReplyDeleteThey are very nice! =) Honeysuckle Honeydew is my favourite atm. ^^
Deletei have the summer fruits one and the smell is such a let down, it doesnt even have a nice smell but rather it smells like.... nothing, in a bad way...
ReplyDeletesigh
how long does the sweet mint cooling effect stay on your lips for?

I'm always asking myself what 'Summer Fruit' exactly is!? How does it smell?
DeleteI feel that cooling effect right after applying and it just last for a few minutes.
I can buy these at my local drug stores here in the USA! If you ever want any new flavors just let me know. I am not sure if they're hard to get where you live or not, but I can always do a shopping service free of charge because your blog has been so helpful to me! :D
ReplyDeleteOh, how nice! =D I would like to try out 'Passionfruit' or 'Strawberry Sorbet' but can't get them here. Order them always from Asia or USA.
DeleteHi! Just wanted to enquire where can I get it in Taiwan? I want to get it as a gift for a friend and I can't get it in my country :( I'll be going to Taiwan soon. So I just wanted to ask which store carries this product. Thanks!
