Hey guys, I've been meaning to post a review on this for a while, I don't know why its taken me so long, most of these pictures are from when I originally bought it! So onto the review....
There have been many reviews on the babylips, I know there was a massive hype on them and then as soon as they were available in the UK the trend seem to grew. Many reviews were positive but there were a few negative ones, I'm not sure why because I've seen nothing but great things from this little tube :) I think it may depend on which on you have, I do want to try out every single one now..
First of all as a regular lip balm, it. is. amazing. Whenever I put this on it doesn't seem to just put a 'layer' of moisture on the lips like a lot of other ones (Vaseline being one), it really hydrolysis them. - And those moisturised lips aren't temporary, my lips will stay soft for many many hours. On days when I have this to hand I top it up really often and my lips feel beautiifuull.
I chose cherry me because I wanted a lip balm with a slight hint of colour that I could just 'slap on' haha. As you can see from the swatch it's a very pretty pink, I would say that it
does show on the lips! I like to put this on when I have a pretty pink blusher on to make the look very girly :)
Overall I really love this lip Balm, It moisturises, adds colour, looks good and is not expensive! I must own them all now.....

Have you tried any of the Babylips? What ones have you used and would you recommend?
I recently went to boots and was a bit naughty :)
Maybelline had an offer on for 3 for 2 so I couldn't resist!
Maybelline blusher- flash plum
I've wanted a brown shade of the colour tattoos for a while, as I already have a blue one a
nd it's great, so decided to go for on and on bronze, I also have wanted a new blusher for a while and as it's now autumn I thought this darker shade would be perfect, finally I picked up my first ever baby lips!
Cherry me
They are hyped about so much so I thought i'd see what the fuss was about, I will probably do a review on this soon.
Mist you madly
After leaving the makeup aisle I got pulled in by soap and glory and bought their body mist, it smells really nice and lasts so long! It's the first time I've bought it but when it runs out I may buy it again..
Lastly, I bought one of the Vaseline moisturisers (why did I not buy one in summer?!) I am so lazy when it comes to moisturising my body, having to wait for it to dry, and finding one that doesn't feel sticky is difficult, now it's an easy task! I got it in cocoa because I love the smell.
~~Do you enjoy haul posts? Have you been shopping lately?
Just a quick "FOTD" post for you. :)
I recently rediscovered my Calvin Klein eyeshadow pair, and have been using it quite a bit recently, I made a nice girly pink look with this, the lighter colour makes a nice inner corner highlight and I used the darker in my crease and outer corner :)

I recently bought this on an offer along with the maybelline falsies mascara, and unlike most people I'm more of an eyes person than lips because I think you can be a bit more creative with eyes, however lately a few lip products have been sneaking into my makeup collection...
I really like this colour (coral tonic) I think it's very summery, and it's not too bright, bright lipsticks do not suit me! It's a pinky coral but appears slightly darker than in the tube, I really like the packaging, the way the coloured lid just 'snaps' into place.
I'd say the staying power is okay, depending on eating/drinking, at least 2 hours.
Overall I think it's a great summer lip product and I will be wearing it a lot :)
~~what's your favourite summer lip product? Do you own any colour sensational lipsticks?
I went into superdrug to get the maybelline falsies flash lash affect mascara as I haven't tried it yet! And when I went in there they have an offer on most of the maybelline products for 2 for £10 which is great as the mascara alone is £8 so technically you either spend £2 on something else or £5 each :) I decided to get a colour sensational lipstick with it in the colour coral tonic.
This offer is available on most mascaras, lipsticks, BB creams, eyeliner and their foundation (I think - maybe a few others)
Review to come on both :)
~~What do you think of maybelline products? I don't own many myself.
