Maybelline Baby Lips Review

I think this is a hit or miss product. For me, I don't absolutely love it, but I don't hate it either. It's a pretty average lipbalm :-)

Not a fan. The product didn't seem to nourish my lips at all, just stuck to the dry bits and felt greasy. It also tasted revolting and bitter. I used it once and never again. Maybe I'm just too much of a lip balm snob.. i usually use more high end stuff, so of course there will be a difference. Having said that I use nivea lip butter n I like them. No way does this hydrate for 8 hours.

When I used this my lips were in normal condition and while they were smooth after application this was only the feeling of the product sitting on the surface, where it stayed until it rubbed off on any glass or mug that came my way. It left my lips feeling dry and sore.

Not a bad product. Considering I got mine for free from a Maybelline visit to my uni, I'm pretty happy with it! Smells good, goes on nicely and doesn't taste horrendous.

However, it really is just like most lip balms I have had in the past (except probably easier to find in my handbag thanks to the bright yellow lid). It worked for me (don't know about the whole 8 hour claim though, that may be a bit of a stretch) and considering I got it for free I am happy with it!

I'm going to review two different Baby Lips lip balm. Firstly, the pink and light blue one in a berry scent. I really like this one, it's got the yummiest smell and it's hydrating and smooth. It's clear and looks good on. I think the best thing about it would be the scent though and it doesn't keep lips hydrated for 8 hours, more like 1 hour max. Secondly, the pink and silver lip balm. I didn't like this one nearly so much because it stained my lips. Normally I love lip stains but this one looks a bit weird on... and I prefer my lip balms to be clear so I can continue to apply and reapply as I wish. When they're stained you have to constantly think about the colour of your lips and if they're too dark because you're using the lip balm too often.

This lip balm applies smoothly and has a nice shine to it, some have a stain to them also. Sometimes when I am going out I will opt for this over lip stick or lip gloss. I find that it moisturises my lips nicely, and lasts for a few hours. I have currently only tried three of these, but keen to try some more :)

This was just average for me. It wasn't lasting. I'd be lucky if it lasted an hour! The pink one leaves an ugly stain on your lips and it just looks wrong. Getting it off is harder! I won't be purchasing this again.

Don't get me wrong, this lip balm is good. Smells good, feels good, there's nothing wrong with it. In saying that, I didn't find anything all too amazing about it either. My friends rave about it and how they can't live without it so maybe it's just me but personally it was the same as all the supermarket brands I found. It most certainly didn't keep my lips moisturized for 8 hours so I was irritated it had said it would. It was nice feeling on the lips so I would buy it again in a situation where I was travelling and had run out of my normal lip balm but I just didn't find it all too amazing. Fun packaging for people who like to buy full collections of lip balms as a lot of my friends do. Nice product over all but most certainly "basic"

I have the blue/pink anti-oxidant berry flavour. I bought it mid-winter during a spontaneous moment while waiting in a checkout queue and it has been in my handbag ever since. It is a solid creamy pink consistency but not waxy or greasy at all. A decent every-day lip balm, but nothing special overall.
