For those of you who don't know, I am a member of BzzAgent, a word-of-mouth marketing company that sends out free or highly discounted products and services to its members to test out, review, and "buzz" about online and to those they know. I have been a BzzAgent for nearly two years & have received some great campaigns & highly recommend. You can go here to become a member!
One of the latest campaigns I have received is the Maybelline Great Lash Lots of Lashes mascara and the Maybelline Baby Lips campaign. I was sent five tubes of the mascara and five different flavors of the Baby Lips lip balm to review.
Between the two products, the Baby Lips is definitely my favorite, and I consider myself to be both a mascara and lip balm connoisseur. All of the lip balms are SPF 20, so your lips will be protected, and they offer a variety of colors and flavors to choose from. Pictured above (from left to right) Quenched, Peppermint, Cherry Me, Pink Punch, Peach Kiss. Quenched has no color, it just gives your lips a nice shine. It also has an interesting scent, one that I consider to smell much like Fruit Loops. Peppermint has the same appearance as Quenched, it just has a peppermint scent. Cherry Me (the orange tube) is my absolute favorite of the group! It gives your lips a nice pink/red tint, depending on how much/how heavily you apply and has a lovely cherry scent. Pink Punch smells like fruit punch Kool-Aid. While I enjoy the smell of it, it is highly pigmented and unless put on very lightly, gives you Barbie pink lips, a look that I absolutely cannot pull off. The Peach Kiss (purple tube) smells the worst of all of them, in my opinion. It doesn't have a nice peach scent like you'd expect, but instead, it smells like lipstick. The color was also my least favorite, a sheer nude. All that being said, I always have the Quenched and Cherry Me in my purse and will be repurchasing these again as soon as I run out.
The Great Lash Lots of Lashes mascara that was sent to me was in Very Black. It worked well on my lashes, separating them and giving lots of length and volume. The "grabber" brush takes some getting used to due to its tapered shape, but once you learn how to maneuver it, it works great, especially for getting in the corners and lower lashes. While this is not my favorite mascara (that award goes to the oh-so-sadly discontinued Maybelline Pulse Perfection mascara), it is definitely one worth trying.
Check these products out & let me know how you like them!
