Today, however, I get to show you a tutorial I absolutely fell in love with! I used a variety of products (all broken down below) but it doesn’t have to just be Halloween either.

I reviewed the original balms that look like EOS eggs here from Walgreens. We still really enjoy them so when I saw new flavors/scents we jumped on them- & we have totally mixed thoughts!
