Review: Maybelline Baby Lips Lip Balm

Disclaimer: The following products were sent to me as a bzzagent for feedback and review purpose.

... continuing from my last post, this post will be about the Baby Lips Lip Balm. (MSRP 3.99)



There are six varities available, and I was sent five: Peppermint, Quenched, Peach Kiss, Cherry me, and Pink Punch (not pictured above, I gave it to my Aunt) and Grape Vine (which I do not have)

L-R: Peppermint, Quenched, Peach kiss (tinted), Cherry Me (tinted)

According to Maybelline, these lip balms will visibly renew lips, provide 8 hours of hydration, and contains SPF 20.  

At first I thought that they would be strongly flavored as their name suggest it, but suprising enough there is little to no flavoring. Cherry Me had the strongest flavor and scent, Peppermint has no scent but has a slight minty flavor, while personally I think both Peach Kiss and Quenched has no scent or flavor. These do not last 8 hours for me, but they do last longer than my other lip balms.


Pros:
-> Contains SPF 20
-> Average wear last longer than most lip balms
-> The scent and flavor is subtle.
-> Packaging is colorful, playful, and cute.
-> sheer color

Cons:
-> Packaging does look cute but not in public. too cute and young



*Update* Even though the brand test on animals, I have kept using this product. This is overall a good product,and the tinted ones are a huge plus.



Note: This brand test on animals

Cherry Me looks like a gorgeous shade!

I've heard many good reviews of the Pink Punch, My aunt also likes it, she said it leaves a nice tint even after the balm dried off.

I've seen these being reviewed on so many blogs recently but haven't tried them myself. I think I'll keep an eye open for these though - the tinted ones really interest me. I'm not too big of a fan on how the packaging looks either - they look like something a little girl would carry around :/

I have cherry me and peppermint, and I love them! Now while I have to constantly reapply - which I don't mind- it does make my lips a lot softer than they were. Which was promised. I'd buy these again, and again. I guess it's a matter of taste but I think the casing is cute, and I don't mind being seen with them.
