Review & Swatches: Maybelline Baby Lips


Swatched heavily

Grapevine

Pros
- SPF 20
- Moisturizing
- Scented (con for some, esp since it's artificial)

Cons
- Very sheer (pro for some)
- Juvenile packaging (pro for some)

Value
$3-4 for 0.15 oz / 4.4 g

Verdict
Overall: B+
I read on makeupalley that these are very sheer, so I went with Grapevine (since I think Cherry would've been too bright even if it was sheer). As expected, it turns out to be a sheer, almost berry-looking color on my semi-pigmented lips, which is at least wearable. The scent of grapevine is very artificial, which is how I like grape scents, but I can see how it would be a turn off for others.

Repurchase?
Yes. I am planning to get the peach and pink punch one... If they're ever in stock at Target. I like them but not enough to shell out $4 at Walgreens or CVS when it's only $3 at Target (here's me, cheapo)

  1. My target is alway out of these as well and I think it's because of a deal earlier (when people can stack a 1-dollar manufacturer coupon with a target coupon, which made this free). The target coupon (2-dollar off any maybelline lip product) is still available at their website maybe you should print it out before hitting target again this year (It expires on the 31th).
