Release Date and Price
The Holly & Jolly set went live on the eos website on 2 October 2026 as part of the brand's 2026 holiday drop. The 4-pack costs $10.99 (US). Because it's a limited-edition seasonal release, eos is clear that these flavors won't stick around, so it's worth picking one up early if you have a favorite in mind.
The Products: Four Holiday Flavors
Each balm comes in a stick tube, and the set includes pastel pink, mint green, red and lavender tubes. The four flavors are:
- Merry Berry: raspberry slush and blackberry syrup
- Cherry & Bright: juicy cherries and crystal sugar
- Candy Cane Swirl: white chocolate and crushed candy canes
- Eggnog: vanilla custard with a sprinkle of spice
Why It's a Winter Lip Care Essential
The flavors are the fun part, but the formula does the real work. These are moisturizing lip balms made with sustainably sourced natural shea, which helps smooth, protect and keep lips soft all day. eos also says the balms are gentle enough for sensitive skin, which helps when cold air and indoor heating leave lips dry and chapped.
Tips for happier winter lips:
- Keep one everywhere. With four sticks in the pack, you can stash one in your bag, coat pocket, desk and bedside table.
- Reapply after eating or drinking. Holiday treats and hot drinks wear balm off quickly.
- Layer before bed. Swipe on a generous coat at night so lips wake up feeling soft.
- Prep for lipstick. Apply a thin layer a few minutes before your holiday lip color to smooth the surface.
More From the eos Holiday Drop
If four balms is more than you need, eos has two other options from the same release:
- Merry & Bright Lip Balm 2-Pack ($5.99, US): Merry Berry and Cherry & Bright together. It's a good stocking stuffer for berry fans.
- Candy Cane Swirl Super Balm ($5.99, US): a squeeze-tube version of the white chocolate and candy cane flavor. Super Balm is eos's richer lip treatment. It delivers up to 24 hours of moisture with shea butter, cocoa seed butter, avocado oil and castor seed oil, and it's paraben-free and cruelty-free.
Gifting Ideas
The Holly & Jolly 4-Pack is easy to split up. Keep one flavor for yourself and tuck the rest into stockings, use them as gift toppers, or hand them out to friends. You could also pair a stick from the set with the Candy Cane Swirl Super Balm: use the stick during the day and the richer Super Balm as an overnight treatment.
