Price: $3.49 * Buy At: Ulta * Size: 0.14 oz The EOS Vanilla Bean Smooth Stick Lip balm comes in a light ivory tube with a grove on the top of the lid. EOS managed to stay consistent with their classic formula on these new lip balms. The vanilla scent isn't too strong, but it is noticeable. The lip balm feels smooth and moisturizing, but isn't thick. This lip balm is 95% organic and 100% natural, so if you tend to gravitate towards natural products, this would be a great one! As far as the stick version versus the sphere version goes, I probably still prefer the original, but I still really like this one. It smells just like the vanilla Smooth Sphere lip balm that was a part of the limited edition 3-pack for holiday 2013, so if you missed out on that one definitely get this one! XOX ♥

The EOS Wildberry Lip Balm Sphere is a limited edition lip balm that is part of the A Ray of Holiday Sunshine collection inspired by Rachel Roy. It has pink packaging with wings on either side of the EOS logo. Wildberry is 100% natural and 95% organic. The scent of this lip balm is sweet, but not nearly as sweet as the holiday trio EOS released, and I reviewed. The scent of Wildberry reminds me a lot of the Passion Fruit EOS which had light purple packaging and was limited edition. I'm not crazy about the scent, but I collect the EOS lip balms, so I had to have it in my collection. The formula of the lip balm is consistent with the rest of the EOS line, providing a thin layer of moisture to the lips that can last for an hour or more.

Price: $7.99 * Buy At: Ulta * Size: 3 x 0.25 oz / 7 g The EOS A Ray of Holiday Sunshine is a pack of three new, limited edition EOS lip balms inspired by the fashion designer, Rachel Roy. The set includes Indian Summer (Orange Blossom), St Barth's Sunrise (Pink Grapefruit) and Aloha Hawaii (Strawberry Kiwi). Each lip balm has the classic EOS packaging with wings engraved on either side of the EOS logo. Indian Summer has a very sweet orange scent that reminds me a lot of the Extra Sweet Orange gum. St Barth's Sunrise isn't as sweet as Indian Summer, but it still has a fairly strong grapefruit scent. Aloha Hawaii has a delicious strawberry kiwi scent and is less scented than the other two lip balms. I personally like these strong, sweet scents, but if that's not your thing, I wouldn't suggest this set. All of the balms have a smooth formula and add a thin layer of moisture to the lips. These lip balms aren't super thick and moisturizing, but they do have some decent lasting time and they smell amazing. Plus, the balms are 100% natural and 95% organic. EOS has been one of my favorite brands of lip balm and this set doesn't disapoint! XOX ♥
Price: $2.99 * Buy At: Walgreens * Size: 7 g / 0.25 oz The Well at Walgreens Candy Corn Lip Balm is a yellow lip balm in a spherical white package. This limited edition flavor was released with four others as a part of a Halloween collection. I absolutely love candy corn, so I just had to buy this when I saw it! To see how these lip balms compare to EOS, see my previous review HERE. This lip balm doesn't smell exactly like candy corn, but it still smells really good. It kind of has a vanilla cupcake scent. These lip balms are pretty average, it adds moisture to the lips, but isn't super thick. However, I do find that this lip balm lasts longer on the lips than most. XOX ♥
Price: $2.96 * Buy At: Walmart * Size: 7 g / 0.25 oz The EOS Coconut Milk Visibly Soft Lip Balm Sphere is a coconut scented lip balm sphere with a pink striped package. Coconut Milk and Sweet Mint are the newest additions to the EOS line. Coconut Milk is gluten, paraben, phthalate and petrolatum free, in addition to being 99% natural. The lip balm is made of various oils (including coconut oil) and shea butter and also contains antioxidant vitamins C and E. I really like EOS lip balms and Coconut Milk is just as good as the rest of the line. It feels very moisturizing on the lips, but isn't too thick. The moisture doesn't last for the longest time, but I have no problem needing to reapply lip balm. As weird as this might seem, the scent of this EOS reminds me a lot of coconut frozen yogurt. XOX ♥
Price: $4 * Buy At: Nordstrom * Size: 4.25 g / 0.15 oz The Sun Bum Key Lime Sunscreen Lip Balm is a clear lip balm with SPF 30 and a sweet lime scent. The Key Lime flavor has a bright green package with a brown, wooden texture label. It adds moisture to the lips just like any other lip balm, it's pretty average as far as lip balms go. Where this product really stands out from the crowd is it's scent and taste. It has the most delicious, sweet key lime pie scents and flavor. I also like this one over others because of the SPF 30, which I don't see very much on the market. If lime isn't your thing, Sun Bum has a variety of delicious flavors/scents to choose from, I also really like the Mango one. XOX ♥
Price: $2.99 * Buy At: Walgreens * Size: 0.25 oz / 7 g Walgreens has released eight new flavors of their EOS-like lipbalm for the summer. Lemon Ice is a yellow balm in a white package, Cherry Lemonade is a red balm in a yellow package and Strawberry Banana is a yellow balm in a red package. The packaging has a plastic-y feel and is flat on the top and bottom so it can be set down on a flat surface. The lip balm feels very smooth and moisturizing on the lips, like an average lip balm. All three of the lip balms' scents and tastes are pretty close to the lip balms' flavor. To see how these lip balms compare to EOS, click HERE. XOX ♥
Price: $2.99 * Buy At: Target * Size: 0.25 oz The EOS Honeysuckle Honeydew Smooth Sphere Lip Balm is a scented lip balm in a light green package. It's hard to place the scent exactly, but it reminds me of some kind of gum. Honeysuckle Honeydew is 100% natural and 95% organic in addition to being gluten, paraben, phthalate and petrolatum free. I am a big fan of the EOS lip balms and Honeysuckle Honeydew does not disappoint. It has a very smooth texture and a moisturizing feel, without being thick on the lips. XOX ♥
Price: $3.49 * Buy At: Walgreens * Size: 0.23 oz / 6.5 g The Softlips Cube in Vanilla Bean is a rounded lip balm in a cube shaped package. The website claims that this lip balm hydrates with Shea Butter, replenishes with antioxidant Vitamins A, C & E, smoothes, protects with SPF 15 and adds shine for a 5-in-1 result. Of course with the product being a similar shape to EOS lip balms, many people will wonder how they compare. In my opinion, the Softlips feel a bit thinner than the EOS formula, but both feel moisturizing and balmy. Product aside, the packaging of the Softlips cube can be more convenient than the EOS packaging since it's a little smaller and won't roll around since it's a cube. The Softlips Cube has a smooth feel and feels like the classic Softlips in the tube form. As you may guess, Vanilla Bean smells like vanilla. XOX ♥
Price: $2.99 * Buy At: Walgreens * Size: 0.25 oz / 7 g The Well At Walgreens Strawberry Lip Balm is a pink, strawberry scented lip balm in a pink spherical package, similar to the EOS Lip Balms. (See the watermelon version of this lip balm compared to EOS HERE) The lip balm's package is flat on the top and bottom, making it easy to set somewhere without it rolling around. The package is also very plastic-y and cheap feeling. The lip balm applies very smoothly and feels moisturizing and lightweight on the lips. This balm is not a thick or heavy duty moisturizer for the lips. I really like the scent of this lip balm, it's a very sweet strawberry scent, but I don't think that everyone would be a fan of it because it's so sweet. XOX ♥
