The buzz around these gorgeous tinted balms is pretty insane, and after trying them out for myself I can totally understand why! The Maybelline Baby Lips Electro* ($3.95) range feel a lot silkier and smoother than the original Baby Lips here in Australia, and the tint on them is more noticeable on the lips than what I had expected, which was a pleasant surprise.
My pick of the three is probably the watermelon flavoured Pink Shock, which is bright on the lips from the very first swipe. All 3 smell delicious but the best by far is Oh! Orange!, which smells just like a Lip Smacker I had back in the day and it totally brings me back in the best way. The berry flavoured Berry Bomb is a full-on purple in the tube but on the lips gives a nice natural flush to the lips that I think makes this one the most wearable for those afraid of colour.
Are you planning on picking one of these Electro lip balms up?
Which shade tempts you the most for $3.95?

*Provided for consideration. Honesty, always.
I'm really excited that these are out in Aus. Maybe that means they'll be bringing even more US stuff! I really love the look of the orange one, will definitely have to check these out.

I was pretty excited too, the US Maybelline releases seem really promising. Did you end up picking one up?
DeleteAh!! Never been a super-fan of the Baby Lips, but they look great on you. Your skin and eye colour looks amazing too!!!!
ReplyDeleteI'll pass on these, since I've already have a lot of lip balms/sticks/tints to finish. However, it's nice to see new additions by Maybelline!
These feel really different to the original Baby Lips formula, perhaps you'll like these more? I have so many tints at the moment too though!
DeleteOooh the orange one is cute. I actually have to cull my lip balms at the moment. Ugh.
ReplyDeleteI have so many to throw out or give away, really need to get on with it so I can enjoy the good ones!
DeleteOoo...these look lovely! I would love the berry and pink ones! These haven't landed in our stores yet but I love maybelline lipbalms!
ReplyDeleteThe berry one would look great on you :)
DeleteAll! The shades look to good to pass up and the nostalgic- lip smacker -factor in a slightly more sophisticated form.
ReplyDeleteTotally agree, Smackers are the best!
DeleteLovely shades especially Pink Shock. It looks so natural on lips. Love it!
ReplyDeleteThey are very wearable for bright tint shades :)
DeleteThese look amazing sweetie... the orange one looks amazing and I think Id choose that one :)
ReplyDeleteI do not think these will come to Finland though ;)

eBay them! I think it would look really pretty with one of your sunset eye looks :)
DeleteI am obsessed with Baby Lips! I bought the purple and the pink ones last week...I was disappointed with the purple, I was hoping it wouldn't be as sheer as it is
ReplyDeleteSorry to hear that you were disappointed, it was definitely more sheer than it looks like it would be and I prefer the pink shade
DeleteI bought the purple one because i love orchid shades, they make my skin look brighter!
ReplyDeleteOnly thing, I wish it wasnt so sheer or they could make the tint last a bit longer.
Planning to invest the orange one too, its a gorgeous colour :)
I wish I got along with Orchid shades, they are so pretty! The orange is really pretty and smells great too
DeleteOooh they don't look as bold on the stick as they do when you swatch it! I like! Miss 12 snapped these up when she saw them on sale at Chemist Warehouse the other day. She was beside herself - huge fan of the Baby Lips range that one.
