Maybelline Baby Lips Review
HotBaby Lips is said to provide deep lip renewal care plus 8 hours of hydration. The Baby Lips formula is proved to improve lip coloration and to reduce the appearance of fine lines for younger looking, baby smooth lips. The SPF20 is also an added bonus! Protection from the harmful UVA/UVB rays! Hell yeah! (**,) I bought every color (except mint) and I am so obsessed with them.They leave your lips feeling smooth and extra soft.They come in tinted colors as well as plain.My favourite is Cherry Me ♥. I also love the packaging.Its fun and colorful and screams BUY ME :) I have to also mention that it is very affordable. It is available at selected Clicks stores and the cost is around R24. I do suggest that you call Clicks first if you are going there for Baby Lips because not all Clicks stock it yet and if they do, its selling like hotcakes! Get your dose :)

I was soo excited when I found these again the other day here In South Africa.
I definitely recommend these babies ;)
It smells great and the Cherry variant that I have and love has a slight tint to it so I don't waddle around looking bare after I have eaten off all my lip colour.
I wouldn't say it's the best lip hydration product I've ever used, but it's most certainly something I'm happy to continue purchasing and using.
1 goes on smooth
2 smells like peachy peachy perfume
3 illuminates your lips with a hint of colour and delectable shine
I have heard so much about these lip balms and thought, being the lip balm addict that I am, that I couldn't not have at least one in my collection.
I've always been a HUGE Labello fan, and this one in particular is very similar to the turquoise Labello (also the moisture and hydration one). However, I don't think that the Baby Lips lived up to the hype, and I found I had to keep on applying it too often to make it something that I'd repurchase. Labello is much better in quality.

These retail for R24.95 at Maybelline stockists around the country. For that price it is no wonder people go crazy for these. The fun packaging is also a winner in my books
1 goes on smooth and light
2 gorgeous feeling and smell ( kinda reminded me of the soft lips product)
3 catchy packaging , very funky and on trend

Product Recommendation
Cherry Me
Pink Punch and
Peach Kiss.
I don't regret purchasing them at all and in fact the Peach Kiss is my favorite one, it gives a moisturizing formula with a great nude color, Pink Punch is possibly my second favorite as it gives a Barbie Pink tint to your lips.
These are great, super hydrating, moisture boosting and definitely worth purchasing.
I have seen a few reviews where they have been rated as very mediocre but I can honestly say as someone with VERY dry and cracked lips that the blue and yellow tubes worked wonders on my lips.

Here's the lowdown on Baby Lips:
Price: +- R25 (about the same as Labello,a bit more expensive than Lip Ice)
There is a wide variety of these lip balms, in different shades, but when I got to Dischem they were all sold out except for the Baby Lips Intense Care, which is colourless. I decided to get it, because I wanted to see what all the fuss was about.
I have to say, I wasn't blown away. It's a really good product, and I can't find anything wrong with it, but I think after hearing everyone rave about these balms I was expecting more. Honestly, it is very standard. It's almost exactly the same as Labello lip balms, but I actually prefer Labello. With the Baby Lips I have to reapply very often, and I used up my entire tube within less than 3 weeks.
It did keep my lips in great condition, so it delivers on it's promise, it's a good Lip Balm, but it's nothing special :) I do want to try the tinted balms though, but as for repurchasing this specific balm, I wouldn't, I would rather just stick with my tried and trusted Labello.

The lip balm lasted throughout our countless, no you take out the trash no you make breakfast Ophrah vs Manchester city conversations, and even a 90 minute long nap I took (due to my loss of the Ophrah vs man city argument) I am pleased to say not once did he wipe off the lip balm, the original has no color to it and no strong scents at all. Whenever he was getting dry he was first to shout babes where’s the baby lips ( lol) we ended up agreeing on keeping it in the living room table drawer.
Well now I have to purchase my own as he took the one we were sharing, his only issue with the lip balm is “eish but its written baby lips! And Maybelline” how masculine is that. I guess he will just have to step in the loo to get his baby lips on or do em in the car and hope no one notices.
As for me, I loved the durability as well as the consistency, however i was not pleased with the effectiveness, it just didn't penetrate deep enough, which ended up leaving my lips slightly dry (rubber lips hey)

These are my thoughts:
Pigmentation:These are not heavily-pigmented lip balms, they are more like traditional tinted lip balms that deliver's a sheer wash of color to your ips. Both Quenched and Peppermint are clear. Grape Vine is a purple-ish wine shade and Cherry Me, the one I was expecting to love the most, is a warm pink that doesn't quite look like the sheer cherry red I was hoping it would be. With the exception of Peach Kiss, which is shimmery/frosty and more on the opaque side, these balms are sheer and do not contain any shimmer.
Texture: These balms glide on the lips pretty effortlessly. The consistency is not heavy, thick or waxy; they are thinner balms that feel slick on the lips yet they do not feel greasy.
Flavor/fragrance: Large array of flavors to choose from to suit any person.
FINAL VERDICT: I don't think they are the most best balms out there but the colors are super funky and it does contain SPF20 which is great for summer. You can have one for every outfit!
