EOS lip balms in Australia? Where to buy/mini review!

I couldn't believe what I was hearing when a lovely friend of mine contacted me to inform me that she just picked up a 4 pack of the infamous EOS lip balms.....IN AUSTRALIA! Not only had I been lusting over these suckers for years due to the hype on YouTube, but I couldn't believe a value pack was even available to us. Obviously, I went out the next morning to check it out for myself and no surprise, walked out with four of the cutest lip balms on the market.


Read on to find out where I picked them up!



You can find these babies at your local Costco! There are currently 6 Costcos in Australia, with a seventh one opening up in South Australia later this year. In saying that, you're bound to get your hands on these! Defiantly much quicker (and easier) than getting a friend or going overseas to purchase them.

For $14* (AUD), you can purchase a value pack that looks like this: 


The flavours included in the pack are Sweet Mint, Honeysuckle Honeydew, Summer Fruits and Strawberry Sorbet. 

Summer Fruits
It smells like a Summer fruit punch, strong scents of nectarines, oranges and plums. Unique smelling, defiantly something I haven't already got in my collection. Perfect for Summer and chucking in your handbag for when you're at the beach. Ideal for people for prefer fruity over sweet or floral scents, however it is still a fairly sweet scent. Not my favourite of the collection but I will hold on to it until the warmer months. 

Strawberry Sorbet 
Everywhere I have read online seems to say that this scent is limited edition. Smells identical to it's name- sweet scents of creamy strawberries. Perhaps another great one for the Summer months. Not like your typical strawberry scented lip balm as it is not sickening and only subtle in the scent. Perfect for girls who love their sweet smells however could also work for those who don't as like I said it isn't overpowering in scent. 

Honeysuckle Honeydew
Best scent of the whole collection! Such a unique scent and seriously like nothing I haven smelt before! Apparently this scent is really popular with celebrities, Miley Cyrus, Kim Kardashian and Ed Westwick being some of the few being snapped using this flavour. Very light and fresh on application and smells a lot like pineapple. Reminds me of a fruit salad covered in sugar! 

Sweet Mint
Saved the best to last. Smells exactly like eucalyptus and for those non-Aussies, that is a type of tree with very distinctive fragrant leaves, almost to a spearmint scent. This one is my absolute favourite of them all because I adore minty lip balms. This one is particularly good because you can feel the coolness of the mint on your lips but its not too strong as it doesn't overwhelm the senses. The colour of the packaging is also a gorgeous cyan colour, which is not important but feel like it should be mentioned. 

For $3.50 for a lip balm that looks as cute as these do, you really can't complain. I highly recommend you picking them up and giving them a go next time you're visiting Costco!

*Please note that you will need a yearly membership card to make your transaction. I believe my family pays $60 a year for the membership fee.
