Review: Maybelline Baby Lips Lip Balm & Lots of Lashes! Enjoy.

Some of you might have seen some of the newest creations by Maybelline, well being a BzzAgent I was thrilled when I got chosen to try out the new Baby Lips Lip Balm, and Lots of Lashes mascara! I have been using the products for about a week now, and I WANT to and NEED to fill you lovely readers in on some of my opinions on the products, as well as some tips!

I am going to start off with the Baby Lips Lip Balm! If you love lip balm or if you have some mildly damaged lips you should definitely check this stuff out. 

Here is a list of some key points that are important to know.

• All SIX of the lip balms are Clinical Strength.
• All SIX contain SPF 20 sunscreen.  . 
• In a four week study after use, 94% of people said that they had less rough lips.
  

 I have tried all five flavors and tints that I received in my BzzKit. My favorite is the flavor Quenched! It is one of the two clear lip balms that they offer. I used this product for 3 days, applying twice daily and WOW my lips feel great! I have very dry, cracked lips from the cold weather where I live. I normally need to use something stronger, but I was so surprised when this actually helped! It goes on so smooth and it doesn't have any sticky feeling to it. It doesn't last on your lips for to long, but I have never had a lip balm that lasted long. I did, however, eat and drink with this on and when I was finished it had stayed on for the most part. I also want to point out that they are very inexpensive and very nice looking. The formula in the lip balm consists of shea butter, vitamin complex, and Centella(which is a herbaceous Asian plant). All three of those make for great softness, restoration, and hydration. These lip balms come in SIX different varieties and tints. For those who like a little hint of color you can choose from: Cherry Me, Pink Punch, Grape Vine, and Peach Kiss. For those who like natural lips you can choose from: Quenched(MY personal favorite) and Peppermint! Please remember that if you have severely chapped or damaged lips, you should consult a professional, applying certain ingredients can make lips worse.

Here are some pictures with me wearing a couple of the lip balms, just to give you a little glance at what you could be buying.

This is me wearing the Pink Punch, now I did have on some lip shine earlier that day and you can still see a little shine from it but my lips look a WHOLE lot better than the day before, ALREADY!

This one is me wearing the Quenched! I love this one, it has nice smell and flavor and lets me show off my natural color!

Now, on to the Lots of Lashes mascara! I am sure most of us have either tried that "pink and green" mascara, saw that "pink and green" mascara, or at least know WHO makes the "pink and green" mascara. Maybelline's Great Lash is the brand for all of those who REALLY didn't have a clue what I was rambling on about :). I have tried Maybelline Great Lash in the past, and to be honest...I just could not grow to like it that much. They have made a twist on their classic and are now offering a new and improved brush, and once again I was lucky to get to try it out. I used the mascara the next day after receiving it while doing my normal beauty routine. I have to say I was surprised and disappointed at the same time. I NEED a mascara that is going to lengthen my lashes, give them a dark black color, and most of all VOLUMIZE! Lots of Lashes was good for a couple of those but the most important quality was indeed a fail. When I went to apply the mascara it went on amazingly smooth, no clumps or flakes. It did give my lashes some nice length, which is good because I do have some shorties, and it added GREAT color, but sadly no volume :(. I knew that Maybelline had not made a change to their formula, but I did hope that just maybe this new brush would make a difference. I will say this...it is not a TOTAL loss! I used an eyelash curler, and after that my lashes actually did look pretty decent. With the price of this mascara, you are really getting a wonderful product. The brush itself is like "ahhhh" (in my holy voice). It works wonders getting those pesky corner lashes, because it is very plump on one end and skinny on the other it makes mascara applying so much easier. Maybelline, you really did do a fantastic job on the brush! I would mostly recommend this mascara to someone who just wants to add some color and a little length to the eyelashes. If you want super long, full, and a fanned out eyelash look then this isn't for you...which is why I don't prefer it. Oh, and it was very easy for me to remove with an eye makeup remover cream, no scrubbing or rubbing my eye raw! I will post a picture of my eyelashes so that you can compare and see what the mascara did for ME.

This was using the Lots of Lashes mascara and using a curler. They looked pretty good, normally a little fuller though.

This is with another brand of mascara, not a huge difference in the pictures, but you can tell in person.

I am so glad that I got to try these products out. I would give Baby Lips 5 stars, and Lots of Lashes 4 stars all in all. Remember this is to inform you of MY personal opinion of these products.
