Maybelline BABY LIPS Part 2

Oh yes! I just couldn't resist! I did buy the other two that I said I would buy...


I bought the Hydrate and Peach Kiss. (I even have the Hydrate on me now as we speak.)


I bought these in Tesco 2 for £5 at the moment.

Now I have all the BABY LIPS that I want!



L-R: Pink Punch, Cherry Me, Peach Kiss & Hydrate.

If I have to choose which one is my favourite, I would go for Cherry Me. I use it almost everyday! It's got that natural red blush colour that enhances the colour of my lips. But now that I have Hydrate, I might use this one more often. I use Pink Punch when I go out. As for Peach Kiss, I'm not so sure if the colour comes out too much when applied on, but I still love the subtle orange-y colour. I have very red lips naturally and it's sometimes hard to put on lighter coloured lipstick on them without putting a bit of concealer first. 


Swatches. L-R: Pink Punch, Hydrate, Peach Kiss & Cherry Me.

I would definitely buy these again (more particularly Cherry Me & Hydrate) as they really work for me as a lip balm in general. The only other lip balm that has worked for me and have used over and over again is Chaptstick's Green Apple but that wasn't tinted so these Baby Lips collection is truly a cherry on top of the ice cream.

Maybelline BABY LIPS Lip Balm

So I was window shopping yesterday and passed by the Boots store to check out some offers on cosmetics and I saw the Maybelline range on 3 for 2 (Buy 3 for the price of 2). I came across these Baby Lips Lip Balm range which, apparently is new here in the UK. I don't really wear lipstick that much because my lips are always dry and it makes it even more dry! So tinted lip balms are good for me! I thought I would give them a try so bought 2 colours, Cherry Me (015) and Pink Punch (025), I also bought a nail polish which, I will review next time.



(Sorry I got so excited to try them on I opened Pink Punch before I even got home!)

Having to put Pink Punch on straight away, the tint is a subtle pink on my lips. It has a sweet smell but doesn't taste like anything. The lip balm made my lips softer after applying on my lips, which I really like! AND! It did last for hours! My lips were so soft and hydrated until the evening.




THE VERDICT: I love them! For £2.99 each you get a lip balm and lipstick in one. This is good for people with dry lips most of the time like me and would like to add some visible colour/tint on your lips. I would definitely buy another two in Quenched (005) and Peach Kiss (030).
