Maybelline Baby Lips Pop Art Lip Balm

Maybelline Baby Lips Pop Art Lip Balm (Blueberry Boom 018) has a nice vivid shade. It is really quite beautiful - something between pink and purple, with a definite cold undertone. It is easy to apply - it sort of melts onto the lips and one layer is enough to make the tint manifest. This balm may well go as a full-fledged lipstick provided you use a lip pencil as well. It has a chemical smell of a sour candy and tastes just as well, but it is not off-putting. It holds for solid couple of hours and even more if you do not eat or drink something, and after that it slowly fades leaving a rosy tint behind. Immediately after application and for a first hour it also has a slight pearly shimmer to it. The balm is not greasy and has minor moisturizing properties. However, it will best do for healthy lips without any problems like dryness, since it accentuates such imperfections. Its major downsides are that the design of the packaging is a bit childish and the cap looks a bit flimsy (I expect it to get loose at some point in future if carried constantly in the purse among other belongings).
In general, this lib balm is a nice item for basic lip care and may even do for a party.
