Hello everyone!
I have got another review for y’all today and this time it’s on the Maybelline Baby Lips. So many people have raved aout this product so I finally got around to trying them out, however I was disappointed by it & I normally love all of Maybelline’s products. I bought the flavour ‘Mango Pie’.
The Baby Lips states: In just one application, Baby Lips instantly moisturises for 8 hours. Lips are relieved from dryness, comfortable and smooth: they have never felt better!
Price: $3.95
Pros:
The standard packaging makes it easy and hygienic to apply unlike the Nivea Lip Butter I have [click here to see a review on that] and the product smells amazing just like actual mangoes. A big pro is that this lip balm is suitable for my sensitive lips, which is often hard to find for me.
- Hygienic packaging
- Smells nice
- Suitable for sensitive lips
Cons:
This product doesn’t fulfill its statement about keeping your lips moisturised for 8 hours; in fact it barely keeps them moisturised for half an hour. I feel that soon after I apply this, it disappears, unlike the Nivea Lip Butter which seems to last forever. I find myself constantly reapplying this to keep my lips moisturised throughout the day which is extremely annoying.
- Does not moisturise effectively
- Lasts for about half an hour
Recommend?
No, I wouldn’t recommend this product as it doesn’t fulfill its main purpose; which is to moisturise. I’d definitely recommend going for the Nivea Lip Butter instead of this one as it’s around the same price and much more effective.
Rate: 1.5/5

Lol! You know i bought a second one, thinking that maybe the first one had a manufacturing defect! But now i can rest assured that the product in general isn’t satisfying!

I completely agree though with the moisturising bit! I needed to constantly reapply this product on my lips, I mean the scent smells tasty but definitely not moisturising. A good reading 🙂

I never really liked BabyLips but some people love them
The best balm I’ve found is bareMinerals Loud & Clear Lip Sheer

I like Baby Lips, but I also feel like it comes off too easily and doesn’t moisturise deeply enough.

I feel the same way too, and it sucks because that’s the main purpose of the product :(! xx

At least it’s not the most expensive product in the world and if you need a quick something on your lips you can just whip it out. I only have two of the Baby Lips. They smell nice at least. 🙂

Maybelline Baby Lips may smell good, but the list of fragrence ingredients are very unhealthy and it is also a petrolatum product, which should be avoided in my opinion. There are many lip balms out there with much safer ingredients! They are listed as a moderate health hazard level in EWG.com for more information. There is very little regulation on cosmetic products so do your homework before putting something on your face/body daily.
