Maybelline Baby Lips Review

Being a regular Nivea lip balm user, I was curious to try out this new Maybelline range to see what it was all about and how it would compare to the Nivea ones that I usually use.

I bought the "Mango Pie" flavoured one and the only thing I really like about this lip balm is that it smells so yummy. What I didn't like about these lip balms is that it doesn't have a pleasant taste when you accidentally lick your lips (and end up licking some of the lip balm too). I've never noticed any taste like this in the Nivea lip balms either. Another thing that I didn't like is that when I apply the lip balm, after some time, I notice that it leaves a layer white residue along the lip (where the inner and outer lip meet). This is a major dislike for me as it makes my lips feel disgusting and also doesn't look the least bit attractive when you have white lip balm residue building up on your lip! I have to wipe off the white residue (that builds up as a result of the lip balm) every now and then just to get rid of it. In comparison to the usual lip balms that I've been using, the Nivea ones never had that weird taste or the residue marks on my lips. I also found that the Baby Lips lip balm also doesn't leave my lips feeling as moisturised as the Nivea ones did.

Overall, I am not so satisfied with this product and I most likely won't use it again. Not so sure what all the big fuss about the Baby Lips range was all about as it didn't turn out to be as good as it seemed. Will definitely be sticking to my Nivea lip balms!!

I didn't find these revolutionary or anything but they do the job if all you're after is a basic lip balm. I don't have terribly dry lips so these suit me just fine but my daughter suffers form very dry lips and these are no good for her. The only real pro for these is the cute packaging!

This was on ok lip balm, but personally I wasn't that impressed with it. It was a handy thing to have in my hand bag for emergency top ups when my lips got too dry, but I have found other products at a similar price (or less) that are more effective. I wouldn't go out of my way to purchase this brand again. Overall I'd say it's not bad, but it's certainly not amazing. I don't think there was 8 hours of moisture in it, either...

I got this in their orange flavour and I found the flavouring actually upset my lips. I also thought the flavour smelt much to artificail. However I have heard good things about this from other friends and I would be keen to try their other flavours.

These lip balms all smell so sweet and delicious, which makes it so much more annoying that i cant use them anymore! After using these lip balms my lips started to peel! I didnt have this problem previously, but something in these balms definitely does not agree with my lips. They smell great and come is such fun packaging. Very cute, but disappointing

Didn't keep my lips nice soft feeling after the products had worn off. Didn't make my lips feel baby soft at all. But is handy to keep in purse for quick touch ups when your feeling dry. Atleast until you can get home and find something that will last longer :) the tinted ones i prefer more due to it has a bit off colour and thats lasts for a few hours and is quiet good for the price.

These lip balm sticks are really good but I think a little expensive. I would probably get a cheaper one next time with more natural ingredients just my opinion. They are good for your lips not drying and smell very good and fruity !

This is a great handbag lipbalm. I have the berry one. they taste and smell nice :) and i love that it just adds a hint of colour to your lips. i got given it as a gift but not sure i would purchase as they are a bit on the expensive side for just a lip balm. but because i have one i defiantly use it alot! Although don't think it last 8hours.

Not sure what the hype is about. Maybe it's just me personally, but when I apply this, it gives my lips a bit of a tingling sensation. My lips are not sensitive and I'm not allergic to anything so not sure why this happened. Other than that, the lip balm was ok, does it's job like any other lip balm.

To me I feel that all Maybelline Baby lips is is hype. The product claims to 'moisturise your lips' and the product does do this at first but I find that after a few days of using it it begins to dry out your lips. Don't get me wrong, I love the packaging of this product and the smell but that's really the only positive thing's about this product. I love Maybelline make-up but this product is a bit of a let down!!
