EOS Alice in Wonderland Lip Sphere set, Review

22 Oct


EOS says: Smooth on any of these Alice-inspired flavors and you will be transported to a lip balm Wonderland. Our delicious, all-natural, 95% organic lip balms are paraben-free and packed with nourishing shea butter and jojoba oil.

I’ve been searching for this set EVERYWHERE!  I’m a huge fan of these lip balms and the blueberry one included in this set particularly caught my eye.  Happy to say I finally found it at Walgreens the other day!

My thoughts
I love, love, love the packaging!  The box has little Alice’s all over it, and when you open it there’s a sweet little quote from the Mad Hatter.  There are 3 full-sized lip spheres (watermelon, vanilla, and blueberry) in this set.  They are all lightly scented and apply smoothly.  There are two lip spheres that I can’t stand (the summer fruit and strawberry sorbet, not included in this set) because they smell funky and make me feel sick.  None of these give me that sickly feeling, although if I had to choose my least favorite it would be the vanilla.  This set would be perfect for anyone who likes all natural lip balms, and of course, Alice in Wonderland fans!

Glitter Rating: 4 / 5

 Where: Wal-Mart, Target, Walgreens, Ulta, Amazon. Price: $8.99/3 lip spheres 0.25oz ea.

Easy Moisturization with EOS

21 Jun

I’ve been on a budget lately.  I know we’re all technically on a “budget,” but I’ve really had to cut back due to some career changes.  That means no eating out, no happy hours, and no spending money on cosmetics… unless I NEED them.  Lotion is something that I need, if I didn’t apply lotion post-shower it would really turn my world upside down.  So I’ve had to start exploring my drugstore options, which led met to:

EOS Body and Hand Lotion, Review

21 Nov

I love to moisturize. I think there is just something about taking to time to nourish your skin makes you feel luxurious. I say this while I’m sitting in gym shorts and and old college t-shirt… but gosh dang it, my skin is SMOOTH!

My skin is soft and smooth thanks to the EOS Complete Care Hand and Body Lotion.  I’ve been using it every day for almost a week now and I’m hooked.  I’m hooked, I tell you!

Pucker up! My favorite products for soft lips

20 Nov

There are a number of reasons one would want to have soft lips and would purchase several products to do so.  For one, they feel nice (duh).  Two, they look nice (double duh).  Three, it makes for a smoother application of glosses/lipsticks.  Four, they make kisses with that special someone that much more enjoyable :)  And the list goes on….

As a beauty addict, I’ve tried a few more than several products to achieve those sought after lips, and I wanted to share my favorites with you guys.

Here they are, in no particular order:

**Please note, I did not swatch the products that looked clear whenever applied.**

First up is Mary Kay’s Satin Lips Set, $18.00 MaryKay.com

Website description: Buff away dry skin with Satin Lips® Lip Mask (.3 oz. net wt.), then moisturize with Satin Lips® Lip Balm (.3 oz. net wt.) to keep lips soft. 

This is a really quick and easy lip treatment, you can even do it in the morning before work.  First, you apply the mask and leave it on for 1 – 2 minutes.  Then remove with a damn wash cloth.  Then apply the lip balm.  Poof!  Soft lips!  The consistency and texture of the lip balm reminds me a lot of the Jack Black lip balms.

You can purchase them individually for $9.50 each, but you save a little when you purchase the set ($18).  You can use the lip balm anytime, it does not have to proceed the mask treatment.
