Design within reach

Every time I use my EOS Smooth Sphere lip balm, someone asks, “What is that?” Just so you know, it’s an organic, paraben- and petrolatum-free lip softener in a little egg-shaped container. It delights me, not only because it looks like a home for a design-conscious baby chicken, but because it’s easy to locate in the chaotic inner-landscape of my purse. The bright-orange sphere never assimilates into my extensive collection of pens and lip glosses, unlike my ever-elusive cherry ChapStick. EOS Smooth Spheres cost about $3 and are suddenly ubiquitous at supermarkets and chain drugstores. Confusing bystanders with your lip-care regimen has never been easier.
