Maybelline Baby Lips Review

left to right: Intense care, mint fresh, peach kiss,pink punch, cherry me and hydrate

Nobody understands how happy this makes me. I have wanted these since I was seeing reviews about them from Americans, as these have been out for about a year over in the states. When I saw on the boots website that they were going to start stocking these I didn't know what to do with myself; I was over the moon.

A couple of days after they had been released I went to boots only to find out that the store hadn't had any yet and I was gutted, so when I got home I got straight on the website and saw that there was an offer on for 3 for 2, so I thought that I'd be stupid to not get all six. 


Now to the important bit.

The six different types are: Intense care, mint fresh, peach kiss, pink punch, cherry me and hydrate. Three out of the six have no colour and three do have a tint of colour; pink punch and cherry me are well pigmented and they provide a good colour considering that they are only a lip balm.

I haven't had these for very long, but when I did get them my lips were in a pretty bad way, as they were very dry and chapped and after about a day of wearing one of these my lips healed and felt soft and smooth.

Scent wise these all smell amazing. 
Mint fresh: (green packaging purple writing) smells extremely minty and the rest smell fruity
 Cherry me: (Orange packaging, hot pink writing) smells like cherries.
Pink punch: (pink packaging, yellow writing) smells like pineapples 
I can't quite put my finger on the other three, but they all smell amazing!

These are good lip balm to invest in, as they are cheap with a retailing price at boots for £2.99 which I think is amazing! The packaging is also sturdy, as there is no chance that the lid will come off if you want to keep this loose in your bag there is no chance that the lid will fall off as it clicks into place.

Yay:

Cheap - £2.99
Nice smelling
Nice variation of colours
Sturdy packaging 
Softens and smooths lips in a couple of hours

Nay:

The fact that it took so long for them to come out in the UK
