I feel like the majority of YouTube and the beauty blogging world are obsessed with Maybelline Baby Lips. I admit, I have a handful of different Baby Lips myself, but what I've come to notice is they're not very hydrating and I actually think using them makes my lips chapped! If you've used any of the Baby Lips, you've probably noticed they have a very thin formula that sits on the lips and doesn't sink in to provide any hydration. I love them for just a natural, quick, no-mirror-necessary pop of color - but I just find it disappointing that they're drying and don't provide the necessary nourishment that my lips need.
This weekend I stumbled upon a tinted lip balm that I'm loving even MORE than Maybelline Baby Lips (yeah, I said it!) because they're truly hydrating, they provide a subtle color and they don't make my lips feel chapped! Enter the NYX Color Lip Balms! ($3.75 for 0.14oz) These have been in the drugstore for some time now, but only now have I had the sense to grab a few!
I picked up four colors: Asante, Merci, Obrigado and Shukran.

I am loving these balms! They are now replacing Baby Lips in my purse, and my lips couldn't be happier!
What are your favorite tinted lip balms?
YAY! Someone else who doesn't worship Baby Lips! I am so not a fan either. I got one of these in one of my beauty subscription boxes, maybe a Total Beauty Collection, I don't know. But anyway you get way nicer color and they feel better on =) Great review!

I'm so glad someone agrees! These feel SO much better. Thanks for reading! :) Love your blog!
DeleteYAY! these colors look lovely on you. Haven't seen these. I've seen the new butter ones they came out with. I love NYX and really must check these out next time I pop by Ulta. THanks for visiting my blog.

Thanks, lovely! I'm curious if these are being phased out with the new NYX Butter Balms... which I don't like as much as these even! Fingers crossed they aren't - but you can get them on CherryCulture.com. :)

That's my favorite, too. Definitely the most pigmented. :)
DeleteOh my how did I miss these! NYX is my fav right now, I am loving all their lip products.
ReplyDeleteThat's exactly what I thought to myself - no idea how I passed these up for so long!
DeleteI was NOT a fan of the baby lips! They provided a pretty wash of color, but did nothing that I expected a lip balm to do! I love these colors that you have; I think I need to pick up some of these soon!

Exactly! All they're good for is a wash of color. These are a god-send! :)
DeleteThese sound really nice! I actually do quite like the Baby Lips formula, but these sounds great as well :)

If you like Baby Lips, you'll probably really like these! :)
DeleteI could not agree with you more. The baby lips totally dried me out but I loved the NYX.
ReplyDeleteThere are an army of us who aren't head over heels with the Baby Lips! Who knew? :)
DeleteMerci and Obrigado and beautiful pink rose shades! They seem a bit dry though, I can't have dry formulas at all because my lips are always a bit dry but I definitely love trying new balms. I want to try their butter gloss!
ReplyDeleteOh my goodness, the NYX Butter Glosses are my holy grail lip glosses. Super moisturizing and a fabulous wash of color. They also smell fantastic!
DeleteI have to agree! I really prefer these to the Baby Lips - they're so much prettier on the lips! xx

Woah these actually look amazing! I NEED to check them out ASAP!
ReplyDeleteI highly recommend you do! :)
Delete‘obrigado' looks stunning! Totally agreed with you, i never purchased the baby lips and I only have one that came in a ‘latest in beauty’ box and I’ve to say that they are not that moisturising :/
ReplyDeleteI can’t wait to try these! great post! <3
Thanks, Liss! Hope you enjoy these more than the Baby Lips! :)
