When I heard that Maybelline were bringing out more shades from their Baby Lips range I had to go and check them out. This new collection is called Baby Lips Electro as these new shades are meant to give you more colour than the original lip balms and that's exactly what they do. I wanted to buy one of the pink shades first before I tried any of the other shades, so I bought the shade Strike A Rose which is like a magenta pink. It's quite bright for a lip balm. Actually it's very bright for a typical tinted lip balm, but that's why I love the whole Baby Lips range as they really do give you a pop of colour to your lips. The application is really easy, it doesn't emphasise any dry patches that might be on your lips and it lasts quite well for a lip balm. This is the perfect shade if you want to start experimenting with brighter shades, but you don't want to buy a lipstick or a lip gloss just yet. Most importantly it really does moisturise your lips very well, so you are left with soft looking (and feeling) lips. Did I mention it's only £2.99?. No, well it is, so it's a bargin too!
