EOS the evolution of smooth review and giveaway





EOS is a all natural products that are USDA Organic approved. Which has helped me in the change to organics. EOS gave me a chance to review two of their products.





The first product that I reviewed was EOS the evolution of smooth lip balm in sweet mint. The sweet mint scent smells great and its also says to give your self a natural reason to smile. With a long last moisture, with Shea butter and vitamin E, it also smooths on really clear. With it being 95% organic and 100% natural it worked great me for me. I placed it on in the morning and I was good for most of the day. I didn't have to reply over and over with in minutes to keep my lips moist. With the new smooth sphere it helps my lips so i don't have to hope that i have got all of my lips.





I was also giving the chance to review the ECO the evolution of smooth shave cream in cucumber melon. This great smelling shave cream is made with natural aloe, oat, Shea butter and antioxidant vitamins E and C to leave your skin looking radiantly healthy. This is a non foaming cream that boosts skins moisture level and keeps you legs feeling smooth long after you have finish shaving. You can shave when your legs are wet or dry (which is very helpful when you in a hurry). EOS helps prevent against razor bumps.



The People at ESO- The Evolution of smooth has offered one of Monkey Mommy's readers a chance to try one of their lip balms and one of their shave cream.
