I must have poor reading skills and bad luck because when I decided to try EOS balm, I only saw "tangerine" on the package, not "medicated". I prefer to not use medicated lip products. I do like the feel and the price, I just really need to try another scent, ANY other scent, since somehow I picked up the only medicated one.

I really love eos balms and this was one of the first ones I ever tried. It comes in the cutest packaging for starters, I haven't really found any other sphere shaped lip balms, and it glides on smoothly with a creamy texture, keeping the lips ultra smooth and moisturised. I also like that its medicated because I tend to get horrific dry lips during the winter or if I put on drying lip products so I needed something that really works and this fits the bill. I think the only thing I don't like about it is the smell! I know they do some really nicely scented ones but this one for me isn't the best. I love citrus smells but the tangerine doesn't really smell like I would expect, in fact it reminds me of a disinfectant of some kind! However, overall I would definitely recommend this and buy again.

I got this when I was sick with a bad cold and wanted a medicated lip product that was a bit lighter than Blistex Lip Medex or Carmex. This is perfect and goes on smooth with a creamy finish. It does have a hint of that mediciney smell from the phenol in it but the fruit scent helps to mask it. It healed my scaly lips in a couple days and I will continue to use it as an everyday balm. The package is a little bulky but at least I can always grab it without looking in my bag!

I really like the eos lip balm line and this one is the second one that I got after first getting sweet mint. The phenol (The medicated part) is the weird smell that some people talk about with this product but after you use it you get use to it. I really like how creamy the texture of this lip balm is and it always leaves my lips very smooth.

I love this product. It does really good with moisturizing my lips but some part of the smell I really don't like. I think it's the medicated parts in it. I would still get the product again.

I've been a wee bit obsessed with the eos lip balms collection. I have Summer Fruit, Strawberry Sorbet, Sweet Mint, and my latest addition; Medicated Tangerine. I love all of the ones I have so far, I like how the eos are moisturizing and smell and taste good but with the Medicated Tangerine I don't know what it is about this one but the smell to it really bugs me. I'm sensitive to smell, sound, sight, and touch and I guess it's something the "medicated" ingredients that I just really can't stand. If it didn't have the weird smell I'd probably like it a lot more. Apart from that, it's very moisturizing and tastes good, and kind of gives my lips a tingle.

Wow a very very good lip balm from drugstore. I used Fresh sugar lip balm and I also love this lip balm from eos. Fresh cost $22.50 and eos cost $2.99. I will buy eos from now on. I like tangerine, honeysuckle, and sweet mint. Very moisturizing on my lip just like Fresh sugar lip balm.

I like this. I bought this because my lips get really REALLY dry on occasion and I break out in a rash (no cold sores mind you... Like contact dermatitis from using the wrong toothpaste or what-have you...). As my lips heal or are irritated they get super dry. This medicated lip balm has phenol in it which acts to slightly numb painful or sore lips. It's a life saver for that reason. It also has a larger amount of shea butter in the formula than the other eos balms. Because it's formulated slightly different is has a creamier richer feel. Very comforting when you have lips that are itchy, red, dry, and allergic. I like the fun original packaging, although for some it may be too bulky. I was able to get mine at a reasonable price $2.99 at Wegmans (Mid- Atlantic/NE grocery chain) so the price didn't bother me at all. The only complaint I have is that it's got a pretty sweet taste that can be annoying sometimes. Because I enjoyed this one so much, I went to purchase the summer fruits one and I'm liking that one as well for an everyday lip balm when my lips are in good condition,

I recently picked up this product from Target, because I saw that it got pretty good reviews on here.This is the absolute worst lip balm I have ever tried from eos. First of all, the lip balm was SO soft. I barely touched it to my lips and it got smashed. I do like the scent, and I love the way it ever-so-slightly makes your lips tingle, but other than that it's horrible. I probably just got a dud, because typically these balms are very solid, and sometimes even difficult to get wear out of. I will definitely pick up another one to see if it's any better.

Well. Since I live in the UK I ordered this item from a website and expected great things according to reviews online. I loved the packaging so when I opened it, I expected better inside. When I first sniffed it I felt nauseated. Horrible! But I have to admit I am getting used to the smell and cope with it better than before. I am very disappointed with the texture of it, very waxy and drying to the lips. I will get my moneys worth out of this and will use it and see what I think, but I am certain I am not going to repurchase.

This was bought last night while at walmart. My lips have felt very chapped lately, and everything Ive been using wasnt helping. I got this out to use it and the smell was so nauseating I almost threw up. I wanted to give it a fair review so I asked my husband and he said that smells like cat piss.... I have to say, I agree... this is the worst lip item i have ever bought.

Lots of hype about this product....I bought Tangerine flavored one. I paid...3.58 for it at Walgreens. It tastes and smells really artificial and nasty...there is no way this is a natural product. The scent and flavor do go away though. The first time I used this was at night ....it was still on when I woke up....does not sink in....just sits there ..like a barrier. It is just okay...not very good....does not condition or soften....I think I will stick to burts bees or shea butter balms.

I ultimately ended up loving this product. I know eos packaging isn't exactly compact, Ready-to-slip-in-your-pocket, but it's kinda cute and fun! It's original, and best of all it gets the job done. After a few applications my dry scabbing fall lips were already better, along with the use of Clinique all about lips, lip moisturizer. As for the smell, it's too much for me to smell the lip balm itself. All I smell is the medication, However on my lips it's a very tropical, and fresh smell that I enjoy. I am definitely buying this product again.

This is a good lip balm but I don't really like it's smell and the shape of Eos is quite hard to be put into my pocket. When i apply it on my lips it's not as glossy as other lip balms. Thing i like the most about Eos is it tastes sweet! I would buy this product again.

Really loving this lip balm, before I was using the Niva repair & protection and I found that I had to reapply it every hour but with this lip balm it keeps my lips soft and moisturised for at least 2-3 hours and it feels great too not too waxy or oily . As for the smell I don’t usually like lip products that have any kind of smell to it but with this I LOOOVE it! the only CON about this product is the bulky packaging but its still super cute :)

I’ve been wanting to try this lip balm since I saw a beauty guru on YouTube use it and because I’m from Australia unfortunately its not available in normal store here and the only way I had access to getting one would be to buy it online. Online store I was looking at getting it from was selling it for about $5-6 which doesn’t seem too price but then adding on the $10 shipping fee I would technically be paying $16 for one lip balm and that’s crazy in my option to spend that much for such a simple and small product BUT THEN luckily I was at chapel st the other day and found a little Asian beauty boutique called “fangles” selling them for $4 each! So for the girls in Australia (Melbourne) that are dying to try this product head to Chapel St!

Got this after spotting it pop up all the time here on MUA, so was intrigued. So I ordered a couple from Amazon. Not sure if they are worth all the hype to be honest. Yes, they look cute and are so different, but they are larger than I thought they would be and when smelling straight from the product, it smells really plastic and cheap. Luckily this is much better when applied to the lips, and tastes quite good too. I have found that it does last on my lips as it kind of just sits there, not sinking in. It is fairly moisturising but not enough to justify the high price for a substandard lip balm. Good for novelty value though I suppose.

I bought several of these Eos balms due to all the hype. These didn't work for me. I did find that initially this particular balm was stiff but if it is warmed up a bit its softer and easier to apply. These balms did not help with my chapped lips. They did cover my lips and protect them from elements but anything will do that. I needed something to heal my lips and these balms did not work for me. Different balms work for different folks though...

Love Love Love, Im a lip biter and get very chapped and cracked lips especially in winter and I love how well this works! Instantly smooths and heals my lips and if you want your lipstick to look smooth and line free I highly recamend using this! I cant wait to get the lemon scented one! The price could be better though $4 is a lot for chapstick!

I LOVE this balm. The tangerine is my absolute favourite one. It just smells lovely and citrusy and I really like that its natural and organic. It feels great on the lips.

I have been dying to try these balms. They just look so cute :) I got this in a Dutch sample box service (glossybox), so no complaints about the price. It smell delicious and it is moisturizing enough. Yes, I have to re-apply but I have yet to find a lipbalm that I don't have to re-apply. So this is perfect, does what it is supposed to and, yes, very cute :)
