Review: EOS Lip Balm

I'm a huge fan of lip balm.  I HAVE to have one no matter where I am.
I used to carry a stick with me at all times in my jean pocket and it's very apparent in one of a pair of my jeans leaving a faded line mark in the front right pocket (haha!).
Now, i've tried a lot of different brands like Blistex, Carmex, Chapstick, etc.  Even though i'd go back to using the same kind of brand over and over again, it wasn't because it was my favorite brand and what-not, but because it was inexpensive.

I've heard great reviews about EOS (Evolution of Smooth) lip balm and how it'll keep your lips smooth for quite awhile.  Just recently I jumped on the hype and bought two EOS smooth spheres in the summer fruit flavors (2 for $5 deal!). 
I felt like a kid during Christmas when I first opened it.  I couldn't wait to try it (not to mention I had lost my chapstick prior to this so I REALLY needed to use it).  I was quite surprised when I first tried it out.  I didn't think the lip balm would be just a mound or as big, but it's so conveniently designed that it's no wonder the size was as is.  What I liked was how the shape of it allows you to apply to both the upper and lower lip at the same time, which means less strokes!

The flavor of this lip balm is incredible.  It has such a sweet taste to it, yet it's not as if you have sugar on your lips.  Now, I constantly apply lip balm on my lips, only because I end up wiping it off in some way or another, but I was amazed at how well this has kept up.  I've been working on the same one for almost a month now and I'm just about half way done now.  Usually for a regular stick, i'd be about 3/4 of the way down.
Overall, I really enjoy this lip balm and would love to be able to continue using it in the long run.  There's still 3 other flavors to try out, which I'll do a review on when I get to that chance.  In the meantime, I totally recommend this lip balm for those who don't mind carrying it around since it's a bit bulkier than a stick.  Not recommended for guys, but will suggest to try the stick form of EOS' lip balm.
