Hmmm, look familiar? Seems like everyone is jumping on the
EOS shaped lip balm band wagon, even Sephora! Sephora recently released their Sephora Collection Kiss Me Balm in 6 different shades. Today, I have for you Melon Sorbet (04) , and Soda Pop (06).
Lets start with packaging. It is my very much loved egg shape with a clear screw on cap. I really enjoy the packaging because when I'm reaching into my bag, which usually is a pretty large one, I don't want to spend 5 mins digging around for some chap-stick. With this packaging it makes finding the product so much easier, which equals faster moisture relief for my notoriously dry lips. My only real concern about this packaging is the cap. I can see how this cap could possible break if it fell or if something heavy was sitting on top of it. Otherwise, the product seems to be well sealed, so no other possible issues there.
As for the product it self, the colors that I own are very nicely pigmented balms that deliver a healthy dose of color with a punch of moisture and glossiness. With these you could really get away with just wearing this product for the day as opposed to a lipstick or gloss. The formula on these were consistent, they left my lips feeling soft and silky smooth and delivered moisture for a good 3 hours. One thing to note is that if you layer the product to much, it gets a little slippery so you may find when you press your lips together you may get little lines where the product builds-up, but this is not a big issue is for me, as you do not need a lot of layers to get good pigment out of these.

Sephora Collection Kiss Me Balm: Melon Sorbet; Soda Pop |
Melon Sorbet: This one smells a bit like a sweet watermelon scent. It is a nice orange tinted balm that leaves a nice coral-ish wash to your pout. After the balminess fades, you are left with a very faint coral-ish stain.

Soda Pop: This one has that carbonated sugary sweet fruity soda drink smell to it, I can't quite put my finger on what kind of soda it smells like, but that really is the best way I could describe it. This one was the most pigmented between the two, it delivers a very nice berry color on your lips. Perfect for transitioning into the Fall. After it wears it leaves a very faint stain to your lips.
