If you ask me about the one thing I can’t live without, it’s lip balm. Lots of lots of lip balm! So the eos balms are a natural fit for my lifestyle. (eos stands for Evolution of Smooth.)

The colorful eos spheres come in a variety of pretty colors, and I keep them around in EVERY bag and in my nightstand. The products keep my lips happy by relieving the dryness, thanks to the vitamin E and shea butter.

Representatives from eos invited me to the W Hotel in Dallas for an evening to celebrate the newly-launched products over sips, bites and samples. Take a look!

Products

The eos team introduced several new products to the bloggers in attendance. First up, we learned about the shimmer balms that comes in pearl and pink. These “Shimmer Smooth Spheres” softens lips with natural conditioning oils while leaving a hint of color and shimmer. (We’re giving away a set of these…read on to learn more!)

A tasty new balm from eos is the Active Protection Lip Balm. These energizing balms come in lemon and grapefruit with an SPF of 30.

Another product I was surprised to see from eos was their shaving cream. I love that they have this and have expanded their product line. The packaging on these really impressed me. Since it’s not metal or tin, it won’t leave a stain on your bathtub or shower caddy. The cream was described to us as a thick lotion and not foam, so it’ll leave your skin smooth for hours.

You may be familiar with the mini lotions from eos, but have you seen these bigger bottles? Like the shaving cream, these bottles also come in a neat, sturdy packaging.  They help get rid of itchy, dry skin as it nourishes your skin (thanks to the moisturizing butters).

The lotions are available in: Berry Blossom, Delicate Petals and Extra Dry Vanilla Orchid (perfect for people with super dry skin, like me!).
