Beauty review: eos



Hi all!

Recently I travelled to the States and over the course of the trip I became obsessed with eos lip balms. Now as far as I know they are not available in the UK so I may of gone a bit over board. But today I thought I would share my opinion on these amazing lip balms. So here we go!






Now I haven't had the opportunity to try the whole range of lip balms but I have tried 4 different flavours and I think I've got the gist of it. Overall I rate the eos lip balms 4/5 love hearts. This is because as they state it is 95% organic, 100% natural and paraben free. Although these things aren’t deal breakers for me they are nice extras. When using the lip balms you can really notice the difference and your lips thank you for it. Eos have found the perfect balance between moisturising and waxy, not only does the lip balm last but it actually makes your lips noticeably softer. Also there is no visible difference in any of the lip balms I have tried.

Moving onto the fragrances, although I have only tried 4 I already have a favourite. Down below I have numbered my most to least favourite fragrances. 

1. Strawberry Sorbet
2. Honeysuckle Honeydew
3. Pomegranate Raspberry
4. Blueberry Acai

Strawberry sorbet for me was a clear winner with honeysuckle honeydew coming second, but pomegranate raspberry and blueberry acai just didn’t do it for me, with blueberry the flavour was too over powering and sickly sweet. But the opposite problem for pomegranate raspberry, you could barely smell the flavour. But overall I am very pleased with the eos lip balms and will definitely use them in the future.

Hope you enjoyed my review and found it helpful J

Missing a piece


Normally I put a quote or something that I think somehow connects to what I’m blogging about. But today I want to dedicate this to anyone who misses their mum, dad, sister, brother, grandfather, dog or even country. Now whether you miss this person or thing because their gone or because you’re apart, its always hard. I walk around the world smiling, laughing and chatting but everywhere I go I feel as if something is missing. As if this little piece of me has just disappeared. I get this ache that affects me, if I sit down for too long and think about it the world starts to blur. To mix colours until I realise that I can’t see properly. Because all I want is a hug, from the right person to take away this ache. To fill that whole in my heart with love and happiness. Now I’m not saying that I can’t operate without this person but something’s just missing. I count down the days, minutes and seconds until I can see them. There’s this whole other life waiting for me, but like everything you have to wait. To sit in your spot until you can move. Because although i'm terrified to move, to create change. What's the other alternative, to stay stuck? I've always been determined and i'm not about to let this stop me. But until i can move and reunite i'll try to make the best of things. But one thing i always try to remind myself is you don't have to be strong all the time. It's impossible, sometimes you've just got to let those cracks show.
