Lip Balm | Lanceek

Hi All,

Today we are going to check Chand’s review on one of the most favorite lip balms of girls out there, the Maybelline Tinted Lip Balm. Read below for detailed review on the same.

Maybelline Lip Smooth Color & Care Refreshing Tinted Lip Balm in Cranberry Jam

Claims:

Refreshing Tinted Lip Balm
Revitalizes dry / dull lips
Gives moisturizing shine
Softens and smoothens lips
SPF – 16
Dermatologically tested
Non sticky texture

Price & Quantity: Rs.110 for 4.5g (I bought when it was priced at Rs.99)

Shade: Cranberry Jam

Key Ingredients: Jojoba oil, Safflower seed oil, also contains Vitamin E

Usage Instructions: Apply daily on lips.

My Experience:

Packaging: A circular tube with circular patterns all over the tube is the packaging of Maybelline Lip Smooth Color & Care lip balm. The tube is a twist up one with a plastic pressing cap. The cap shuts with a click.

Colour, Texture & Fragrance: Cranberry Jam is a bright pink shade. However, it is not very bright on the lips. The consistency of the lip balm is very thin and it very light on the lips too. Though it is a lip balm, it does not have that thick waxy texture. Maybelline Lip Smooth Lip Balm forms a thin coat like an oil film. The fragrance is exactly similar to the fruity scent. The smell is very light which stays for sometime and then vanishes off.

Swatch:

How it works: Maybelline Lip Smooth Color & Care is a moderate lip balm. Those who do not need heavy lip treatment can easily use this product. It moisturizes the lips good enough. It makes a perfect daily use product. The lips do not need any lipstick or lip gloss when this product is used. Maybelline Lip Smooth serves both the purpose, gives the color to the lips and also glossy finish.

It stays on for at least 3 hours with some fading. When it fades, it does not leave the lips dry or flaky.

The re applying of this product is also easy. A little twist up from he tube and a gentle swipe on the lips will do the job. There is no fear of color going too dark on the lips. The product is very travel friendly too. No worrying about the cap getting opened or product spilling out or even melting in its tube.

Overall, I adore this product just the way it is.

PROS:

Twist up tube.
A little of the product is sufficient for one use.
The entire tube will go a long way.
Contains SPF.
Tinted lip balm.
Gives a glossy shine to the lips.
Very thin texture.
Staying power is good.
Hydrates dry lips.

CONS:

Does not help heavily chapped lips.

Rating: 4/5

Do I Recommend:
Yes, you have to have at least one of the available shades from this range.

Would I Repurchase?:
Not really, I get bored with lip products very soon. I will try other variants of Maybelline lip care products.

Hi girls! First of all I would like to introduce myself as Lancy’s sister ( the beauty blogger…lol). People call me Babble (my name). I am a graduated bio medical engineer and now waiting for my call letter from a well known corporate organization in which I got placed during my final year. I could also say that ‘I am enjoying my holidays’ as of now. Coming to the main thing, I am here to contribute my first review on VLCC Daily Protect Honey Lip balm. I am not that expert at beauty and skin care cosmetics as I will make use of it if required. Being a beginner I wish to put forth my kind request to you.

My Experience with VLCC Daily Protect Honey Lip Balm

Packaging: This lip balm comes in a small screw bottomed tube which makes it hygenic and comfortable to use. Thank god it doesn’t come in a tub where we need to pick it with finger tips every time. It has a tight press type cap (sometimes difficult to open). Simply I could say it is handy and I can put it even in my purse.

Color,Consistency and Fragrance: This balm has a bold mango colour with a hint of orange. The texture is thick as a caramel candy (Candies..Yummy!). The fragrance of this lip balm is pleasant, sweet, shea-butter like and purely natural. Seems it doesn’t have any dominating artificial fragrance. I feel like eating my lip balm whenever I use it 😛

How it works: Since I am using this product for the past 10 days, I felt it as a perfect remedy for my chapped lips. Not only it treats and moisturizes lips, but also it has pleasing natural fragrance.
Obviously, it works well on my lips. I would say it will be suitable for every sweet fragranced lip balm loving girl out there! It stays on the lips for a considerable amount of time; Hmm say 2-3 hours. As mentioned already, it moisturizes well and a brings a pleasing effect to the lips. In addition, it regains the natural beauty of the lips by healing the dryness. However if you have extra dry lips, you might need something more rich and moisturizing for a long time, especially in winters. This lip balm, when used along with lippies, bleeds at times so make sure your lipstick isn’t that creamy while using together with your lipstick.

Pros

Soothes and moisturizes lips
If you’re searching for a sweet fragranced lip balm at an affordable price, this would be a perfect pick!
Sweet natural shea butter fragrance that lingers for a decent time
Very affordable price for the worth
Easy to use and handy packaging
A boon for clear lip balm lovers; it leaves no tint on lips
Stays on lips good for 2-3 hours
Easily available in outlets and shopping sites

Cons

The cap is too tight to open at times
Melts in hot summer but you can use the refrigerator to store it 🙂
Bleeds with already creamy lippies
In case if you’re wondering whether it would show any tint on your lips, then you’re wrong. It is a CLEAR colourless lip balm! But then it is not a con for me at all.

I can’t find any other con with this lip balm! This product is a huge hit for this dirt cheap price.

Makeup and Beauty Home Rating: 4/5

Recommendation: I highly recommend this to everyone who loves sweet smelling, colourless lip balms!

Would I Repurchase?: Yes definitely I will repurchase it every time.

Hope you all liked my first review ever 🙂
