More Maybelline Baby Lips

I absolutely love the tinted Maybelline Baby Lips moisturizing lip balms!  I got addicted after using just one.  I've been on the hunt for all of them.  These three are in the colors Cherry Me, Grape Vine and Peach Kiss.  They are lovely colors.  These lip balms are tinted, but they are not like too tinted.  They just give you a little bit of color and make your lips feel amazing!  I've been buying mine at a local grocery store (HEB) and they almost always have an in-store coupon for either $1 or $2 off.  When I bought these, I used $1 off coupons.  I only paid about $2 for each.  This is part of a description of the lip balms that I read online:
Maybelline Baby Lips Moisturizing Lip Balm:
  • Moisturizing lip balm with SPF 20 sunscreen
  • Gives eight hour moisture plus lip renewal
  • It's clinical care for baby soft lips
  • Available in 2 clear or 4 tinted shades
Check out your local stores for these wonderful lip balms! 
Happy Shopping!

I Love Maybelline's Baby Lips in Yummy Plummy



I purchased this Baby Lips - moisturizing lip balm by Maybelline about two weeks ago.  I've been using it and it really does help keep my lips moisturized in the Winter temps and just in general.  I only apply it a couple of times a day.  It seems to last for a while and the tinted color is nice.  It goes nicely with my olive color skin.  It is kind of light, but not too light.  It goes on nicely, and it didn't cake up in the corners of my mouth. 

You can see the color better in the pictures below.  I have included a few pictures of it swatched on my hand and one picture of it actually on my lips.  I would buy this product again.  It is reasonably priced and the store where I purchased it at had a $1.00 off coupon.  I only paid $2 for it.  They had a couple of other colors in stock, but they colors didn't seem like they fit me very well.     


 




Happy Shopping!

Pictures of Maybelline Color Show #370 Shocking Seas

So, on Monday night, I took the time to sit down and polish my nails using the Maybelline Color Show #370 Shocking Seas.  The reason I took the time to do this was because I had already posted about the polish, but did not take pictures the first time around.  I also wanted to polish my nails in this color because it is one of my son's school colors and he had a football game on Tuesday evening.  I wanted to show my school spirit and use this color.  It matches his school colors perfectly.  By the way, his team won.  They went 7-0 for the regular season, and next week, they are in the playoffs for the area middle schools.  Go Pumas! 

I really like this polish and this particular color as I stated in my previous post about this polish:  http://thehouseofdiva.blogspot.com/2012/10/maybelline-color-show-nail-polish-370.html .  Below are the pictures of the color on my nails. These pictures were taken in the living room with medium light. I think the pictures depict exactly what the color looks like even in the sunlight.

Maybelline Color Show Nail Polish - #370 Shocking Seas


I was recently at the grocery store picking up some items that we needed at home, but I couldn't resist going to the cosmetics aisle.  I was looking for a teal or turquoise color so that I could polish my nails for my son's football game this week.  I looked at several different brands, but ultimately went with the Maybelline Color Show Nail Polish in color #370 - Shocking Seas.  The color was just perfect and would serve my purpose.  My son's football team colors are black, teal and white.  I tried it on one nail just to see what it looked like on compared to some others.  It was the perfect shade and would go along with the school colors.  I really liked the color.  At first, I thought it was going to be a little to bold for me, but it grew on me. 

This nail polish was not streaky.  I did use 2 coats when using on my hand nails.  This made it a little darker than if you only use 1 coat.  This nail polish did take quite a while to dry.   I did not have much flaking at all.  It only started to flake after taking showers and washing dishes.  I polished my nails very quickly, so I am going to give it another go really soon.  This particular product/brand will be purchased again.  I definitely think it is worth the price.  They have a pretty big selection of colors in the type of nail polish.  My friends and family will be hearing about this product and hopefully, they will go out and get some.

I will post some pics of my nails polished in this color in the near future.  There were no pictures for me to share today because I didn't take any this time around.  Once my nails are polished in this color again, I will take some pictures immediately.  I will probably just post the pictures in another blog post separate from this one.

Maybelline Color Show Nail Polish - Metal Icon

 
 
 
I just recently purchased this nail polish in a local grocery store (H.E.B.).  They had an in store coupon for $2 off, so I only paid around $2.50 for it.  I really liked the color and it has some shimmer to it.  My son said that this was a good color for me over two other colors that I was contemplating over and over.  The brand is Maybelline New York.  It is the Color Show Nail Lacquer Limited Edition in Metal Icon.
 
You definitely have to use at least two or three coats when using this polish.  Also, it does take quite a while to dry.  As soon as I thought they were dry, I was trying to take the memory card out of my camera, and I scraped my nail while doing that.  I looked at my nail and wouldn't you know it, a piece of the polish was gone from the nail.  Put all of that aside, and it is a nice color.  I am going to try it again when I have more time.  I think it is worth the price, and I will probably purchase it again because I like some of the other colors that are available.
