First Look
There have been a lot of youtubers who raved about this product, this über cute product -- the EOS Lip Balm! And of course, I gave in. It was only a couple of bucks, so why not. I had this lip serum that I use every night, and since I'm running out of it, and I can't find it anywhere else for the price I wanted, I'm not really ready to spend $20 for a lip serum that I'm probably going to use for a while, but still, I can't spend that much money on a colorless lip serum.
And then there's EOS lip balm. I chose the scent (because there are no "shades" for these lip balms) Honeysuckle Honeydew. I also chose the one without an SPF since I will be using these during nighttime as well since I like putting on lip balm before I go to sleep.
PS. They spotted Ed Westwick (Chuck from Gossip Girl) applying these in public! See picture below. :D

Quality
The lip balm itself, in my opinion, is like any other lip balm in the market. This EOS lip balm is moisturizing and it applies smoothly. I think this is a kind of lip balm that you could use before applying your lipstick. Of course, I would recommend getting the one with an SPF especially if you're planning to use this during the day.
Packaging
This lip balm has an egg-shaped container which makes this product look very irresistible. Call it a marketing ploy or whatever, but I'm a sucker for cute packaging! I'm always drawn to products with nice colors, interesting packaging, and nice scent. What I like about the EOS lip balm's packaging is its sturdiness. I think you could throw this a hundred times and I would not break.
Overall
I really like this lip balm. It is not sticky and it moisturizes your lips enough to last for at least 6 hours. I wouldn't recommend it for the winter time since you'll be needing a lot more moisture, and I don't think this will give you what you need. This lip balm comes with 4 other scents such as:
