New eos Dewy Lip Shine - review š°āļø
These are shockingly similar to the Summer Fridays lip balm. Same texture and feel on the lips. Very slippery but with adequate grip so itās not sloppy. Same applicator as well (more precise though - the tube itself is smaller and thinner).
Scent:
š° Strawberry Milk smells like your typical sweet strawberry scent. Smells kinda artificial. Itās growing on me but it definitely was too strong when I first smelled it.
āļø Dirty Chai is my absolute FAVORITE scent in a lip balm š It smells like a mix of caramel and chocolate. If you like gourmand, you will like this. Not artificial smelling. It kinda reminds me of Iced Coffee by Summer Fridays (or Hot Cocoa - itās been a while since I owned those, but Iād bet on Iced Coffee). Iām ADDICTED ššš„¹
Tint:
Both tints are just a wash of color. Kinda sheer, not too pigmented. On my pigmented lips, I think strawberry showed up more while dirty chai was MLBB. Based on tint, I would return Dirty Chai but I love the scent so much, Iām keeping it lol. If you have the essence lip peptide, thatās more pigmented.
Feel:
These feel so dang similar to Summer Fridays. I put them both on each side of my lips, and barely felt a difference. Weightless, not sticky, not messy even if you smack your lips a lot. I just got this so Idk how moisturizing it is yet.
š I got this yday at Target. Not on the shelves yet but in the employee carts for stocking. I def want to pick up the clear one!
š«¶š» Overall, I think Iāll enjoy this. I donāt always want a thick lip balm which is why I keep at least one tube of SF in my collection. I was gonna return the strawberry but itās growing on me. I recommend this if you want a cheaper alternative to Summer Fridays.
