Maybelline Baby Lips Crayon Review & Photo's

Maybelline Baby Lips Color Balm Crayon

As you know Maybelline is one of my favourite drugstore brands as not only do they come out with some amazing launches, they also have the cutest packaging! The Baby Lips balms are always something I can't seem to get enough of and the colours, scent and the packaging win me over every time. This year Baby Lips expanded their line with the launch of the Color Balm Crayon*, which is very similar to the popular Clinique Chubby Sticks. So here are my thoughts...

Price
The crayon retails for £5.99 and comes in six mouth-watering shades including,
05 Candy Red
10 Sugary Orange
15 Strawberry Pop
20 Pink Crush
25 Playful Purple
30 Creamy Caramel

If you're in the US there are eight shades to choose from that all come in silver packaging and include,
05 Toasted Taupe
10 Blush Burst
15 Strawberry Pop
20 Creamy Coral
25 Refreshing Red
30 Sassy Scarlet
35 Pink Smooch
40 Playful Purple

Packaging
The packaging is cute, fun and colourful and fits in perfectly with the Baby Lips line. The only difference with these is they come in a chubby crayon with a twist up top.

Application
These apply so smoothly onto the lips and the crayon is also a great size for ease of application. The shades are pretty pigmented for a balm, but you can also smudge them out to more of a stain if you prefer. All of the shades are scented and have a glossy finish to them. I adore the smell of Strawberry Pop as it actually smells like Watermelon gum!

Longevity
These don't last all day so re-application is needed, however because of the added moisturising oils they don't dry out the lips, which is always a bonus.

Overall Thoughts
Just like the original balms, I adore these as they are such a lovely addition to anyone's Spring and Summer lip wardrobe. Each shade is beautifully pigmented and moisturising, which makes them the perfect travel-friendly balm also. My personal favourite is Creamy Caramel as it's such a great everyday shade to pop in your bag when you're on the go, but I also love the fact that there is a great selection of brights shades to choose from, that are versatile too.

So overall if you're a Baby Lips fan then these already have your name on them, but if you're a girl on the go and you love a pop of colour on the lips, that's easy to apply and fuss-free, then I definitely recommend giving one of these a try for the up and coming seasons.

I award the Maybelline Baby Lips Crayon a 4.6 out of 5
