I had to run into CVS today for a prescription and of course on my way to the counter, I had to check out all of the new on the end caps makeup wise. I see they are having a sale on Maybelline and L'Oreal that when you spend $15 on those brands you get $5.00 in Extra Rewards Bucks { works like cash at register } so I stopped to see if there was anything appealing.
I saw an entire display of Maybelline Baby Lips and since trying Baby Pores, and loving it, I thought this should be my next choice. Priced at $4.79 a tube I grabbed a tube of the Baby Lips Dr. Rescue and a tube of #25 Pink Punch.
Now according to the back of the card, the Dr. Rescue can be used for the pain associated with fever blisters or cold sores. Neither of the things I have ever suffered with. But on the Maybelline site, people have given it 3 out of 5 stars and have used it for extremely chapped lips. I wear lipstick, lip gloss, chap stick....something, all of the time so they usually don't get chapped.
I did open it and it's pink in color and does have a eucalyptus soft hardly there scent to it and a very light if any, taste. It does tingle a bit and felt good on. The back of this card recommended not using it more than three times a day.
The Baby Lips pink punch also has a soft pink color to it and feels wonderful on. I like that the color on looks so natural and sheer without any kind of a taste. This is a more sheer feel and not sticky or greasy and much different than chapstick. Love...love and a definite rebuy.
The Maybelline Dream Bouncy Blush was a surprise to me. Priced at $7.79 for a small compact, here I thought it was this powder in a pretty pink color only to open it up and find a soft, puffy pillow like surface that you gently rub your finger over to apply to your cheeks. The color I bought is #40 Pink Plum and perfect for my lighter skin tone and extremely natural looking on. I also like that it's buildable color. I would rebuy this product as well.
