Maybelline Baby Lips New Bright Collection Tangerine Pop Color Lip Balm Review

Maybelline Baby Lips Tangerine Pop Review

Maybelline has just launched 3 new bright colors in its raved and famous Baby Lips lip balm collection. This is a review of the shade Tangerine Pop from the newly launched 'New Bright Collection' of Maybelline Baby Lips. Don't go by the name 'bright' or you will be disappointed because Tangerine Pop is a gorgeous soft peachy orange shade, nowhere near to 'bright'. It is a translucent lip balm. It looks like you have applied lip gloss but it is totally non-sticky. It gives a healthy peach glow to lips making them look natural and full. You can buy it from HERE.

Maybelline BabyLips Lip Balm Anti-Oxidant Berry Review

This is a review of Maybelline Babylips Lip Balm Anti-Oxidant Berry. This range of Maybelline lip balms comes in 7 flavors: 2 transparent and 5 tinted/colored.

Maybelline Babylips lip balm is around for almost a year now, and even after reading a few reviews, I didn't buy. I used to have ever dry lips as I take my tea very hot. It was when one day I kissed my little one and it pricked his soft cheeks, he asked me why my lips were so 'sharp'. That hit somewhere in my heart and I ended up buying this one for it's clams of 8-hr hydration.

MAYBELLINE BABY LIPS ANTI OXIDANT BERRY INGREDIENTS:

MY EXPERIENCE WITH MAYBELLINE BABYLIPS ANTIOXIDANT BERRY LIP BALM

Used Tube. Actual length was more than this.

The first time, I applied Maybelline Babylips Antioxidant Berry lip balm at night on very chapped lips and woke up the next morning with super soft lips I had never felt for years. So it is true to its claim of giving you baby soft lips. Night was the best time to apply as your skin cells undergo repair during sleep.

Next day I applied in the day and even after two small meals, my lips were still soft and I didn't need to reapply. Within a few uses, it made the lips appear fuller and pinkish. My lips used to be dry so they never looked so pink earlier. When the skin is deeply hydrated, the translucent skin on the lips becomes more see-through and the lips appear pinker. This lip balm keeps lips soft the whole day with just one application, but you may reapply as per your requirement.

It is non-greasy. There is a slight shine when you apply, but it looks good and not too shiny. The color is baby pink but it is transparent on the lips. I didn't like the berry taste. Every time I apply it, I am reminded of mixed fruit jam :) I mean when I apply, I feel flavored fumes hit my mouth's roof, though I can't feel any taste on my tongue. Thankfully the fumes go away within a couple of minutes. But that's just a personal preference. Most of you should be fine with it as it is not a negative point.

I find this to be a good product and would like to try the tinted/ colored versions later. I have already tried it in direct sun and it gave good protection. This tube should last me pretty long and I don't like hoarding stuff. This is great value for money.

PLUSES:

• True to its claims of hydration
• Repairs lips quickly
• Doesn't need frequent reapplications
• Stick packing is convenient, hygienic and travel friendly
• SPF 20
• Transparent color is suitable for both men and women
• Cheaper than other variants, has higher SPF and hydration power
• Value for Money

MINUSES:

People with dark/pigmented lips may prefer the other flavors in colored variations.

The flavors of Maybelline Babylips Lip Balm released in India are different from their International flavors in other countries. Here are the other flavors available in India that you can try out:

Maybelline Anti Oxidant Berry and Mango Pie flavors are both transparent on lips, have a higher SPF (20), higher hydration power (8hr claim) and cheaper than the rest of the flavors.  The colorless application makes these two flavors perfect for both men and women: great sun protection and hydration all round the year.

Those who prefer tinted lip balms, can try the remaining 5 colored flavors with SPF 16 and 6hr hydration claim. 

Easily available online and in local stores. Which one have you already tried and how's your experience with it?
