When I first spotted the new Maybelline Baby Lips Balm Ball ($3.99) at Bed, Bath & Beyond earlier today, I almost walked right by because I thought they were those cream blushes that they launched over the summer (and I was not a fan). But out of the corner of my eye, I saw the words "Baby Lips" and realized that this was a lip product rather than a cheek product. Then I was giddy with excitement...I've seen a lot of Maybelline sneak peeks the past few months but these totally caught me by surprise! Let's take a look...
The Maybelline Baby Lips Balm Ball comes in four shades: 70 Pretty in Peach, 75 Pout in Pink, 80 Bit of Berry, and 85 Kiss of Rose. The display said that the model is wearing Pretty in Peach and based on the photo it looks pretty pigmented...I don't know if it's editing or if these really go on with that much color. I'm really curious about these and wondering how these are different from the regular Baby Lips balms...are they more pigmented? Thicker? More hydrating? I bought all four shades, so I'll be posting my first impressions in the next couple of days.
Here's a look at the shades through the bottom of the pots, which gives a better idea of what the shades look like:
