Maybelline Baby Lips Electro Pop Lip Balm Pink Shock Review

Hi Everyone

Today I am going to review the Maybelline Baby Lips Electro Pop Lip Balm in Pink Shock. The other day I was in the market looking for a lip balm to heal and hydrate my dry chapped lips. Seeing its cute packaging and the ‘baby lips’ claim, I decided to buy it. So lets get to the review to know if it healed my lips and lived upto its claims.

Product Claims:

My Review:

The Maybelline Baby Lips Electro Pop Lip Balm- Pink Shock comes in a twist-up black colored tube with a transparent cap. The top of the cap is the same color as the lip balm which makes it easy to identify the product when you’re in a hurry. The packaging is quite cute! Although I don’t like the fact that when the product is new and unused, the top portion of the lip balm does not retract completely. So whenever I am putting the cap back on, some of the balm gets smeared on the cap and spoils the product.

Anyways, coming to product itself, it has a sweet watermelon-like fragrance. Some people might like the fragrance but I personally don’t like it much. I would have rather preferred if it came fragrance-free. The best thing I like about this product is the color payoff. For a lip balm, it has a pretty amazing color payoff. It applies evenly and gives the lips a beautiful rose pink-colored tint. It is a universally flattering color and should suit everyone. What I do not like about this product is that it does not moisturise the lips enough. In winters, my lips tend to dry a bit and I find that this lip balm does not help with that. I am not saying it doesn’t moisturise at all. It does moisturise but only to a small extent.

The Good about Maybelline Baby Lips Electro Pop Lip Balm Pink Shock:

– Cute packaging

– Transparent cap and a colored top helps to easily identify the product

– The color payoff is amazing

– Inexpensive

The Not-So-Good about Maybelline Baby Lips Electro Pop Lip Balm Pink Shock:

– I don’t care much for the fragrance. 

– The ‘baby lips’ claim is stretched too far. It doesn’t hydrate the lips much. Will not be suitable for dry lips.

– It only lasts for 2-3 hours as opposed to the ‘8 hour claim’

– No SPF

Overall Comments:

The Maybelline Baby Lips Electro Pop Lip Balm-Pink Shock gives a lovely color to the lips and will look good on most people. But it does not hydrate the lips well enough and the ‘baby lips’ claim is stretched a bit too far. Try it if you are looking for a tinted lip balm with a subtle hydrating effect. Skip it if you have dry lips and are looking for moisture-rich formula.
