Maybelline Baby Lips!

Hi guys, i come to you with my review of the new Maybelline - Baby Lips that have just launched in the UK! I have been waiting for these babies to reach UK as i have read many great reviews about them! 
I bought mine from Boots as they do the 3 for 2 offer, so i only paid £6 for the 3 items as they were £2.99 each.

 



Above: Cherry Me // Hydrate // Peach Kiss

There are 6 different varieties in the range but i only picked out these 3 as the others didn't really excite me.

First of all, the packaging! It is the typical plastic casing - twist up lipbalms; which i much prefer over the pot lipbalms where you have to dig your fingers in, I just think they are very unhygenic. The lid on these are very secure compared to other brands, and have that loud definite 'click' to ensure it is shut properly. 
One thing I love about the packaging on the tinted lipbalms (Cherry Me & Peach Kiss) is that the writing of 'Baby Lips' on the lid is the same shade as the lipbalm itself :)

The texture is very smooth and glides on easily over your lips. Both of the tinted balms are sheer and are only slightly buildable.
Cherry Me gives a lovely subtle redness on top of your own lip colour but you have to apply a few layers to make the colour stand out if you have very pigmented lips. Peach Kiss wasn't really anything special to me, kind of just a typical nude colour. On my lips it was similar to Revlons ColourBurst Lip butter in Creme Brulee, but just very sheer with tiny silver particles for those shiny looking lips.
I didn't expect them to have any scents, but as you can guess.. Cherry Me smells like cherry, and Peach Kiss smells like peaches! Love :)

The 'Hydrate' is a clear lipbalm, it feels so buttery and is my favourite out of the 3. Some people might think it feels greasy, but i like this texture as it feels like it really locks in the moisture.
I did a little test on the Hydrate by applying one layer onto my extremely dry lips before i went for a 2hour nap. When i woke up i was amazed by how soft and plump my lips were from just One layer of the balm. It didn't appear or feel the slightest bit dry and felt revived! Hydrate also has a lemon scent which i really like, and even better? It is the only one out of the 3 which has spf20 :)
8hour hydration? I don't think these live up to that statement. On my lips the Hydrate lasts for around 5hours max, Cherry Me and Peach Kiss lasts about 4hours max. But everyones lips are different so maybe they Will last 8hours on some lucky people! :)

I hope this review was helpful, thank you for reading and have a lovely day!^__^

Liese Foam Hair Dye :)

This isnt the first time ive used the Liese hair dye, and ive loved it each time! Ive dyed my hair 2 times before with this product, the first time i used the colour Milk Tea Brown. The second time and my recent time is in the colour Platinum Beige. ___My + and - on this Product___ + I really enjoy using this hair dye because it is super easy to apply and you can really tell if you have covered all your hair since it is a white foam. + The glove is probably the best fitting glove ive used in hair dyes, its smaller meaning it fits your hands better and doesn't slip off half way. (This product is targeted at asians, and asians tend to have smaller hands so it may be tighter on those of you with slightly larger hands..) + One box of dye covered the length of my hair perfectly fine and my hair is down to my chest/boobs, so if your hair is the same length; one box will be enough. I would suggest people with hair down to their lo...

Healthy Balance Unifying Powder ~ Shade 52 - Vanilla.  This powder is smooth and fine and the colour matches my skin very well. The packaging is thin and compact so it can easily fit into your handbag.
