Ohh Baby Baby! Maybelline Babylips… BABY

Ohh Baby Baby! Maybelline Babylips… BABY

I am OBSESSED with these gorgeous lip balms from Maybelline! I had seen them on nearly every fashion and beauty gal that matters’ Instagram feed, and wasn’t that excited, until I actually tried them!

Some of these products have been long time faves, with some new ones getting my nod of approval. Either way, these are my go to lip protecting products of the moment. Zam-Buk Original Let’s start with my favourite of the lot! The Real Makoya! Zam-buk (the green one, not featured in the image above)! I’ve been using Zam-Buk original for years and it has never failed me. Not only is it an amazing lip product, but a great little goodie to carry in your handbag for emergency stings and burns. It’s such a miracle worker, that when my dad got stung by something on the beach in Greece, some old lady came running up to him, with her tin of Zam-Buk that she got from a cousin of a cousin’s cousin in “Afriki” (Africa). I use a teeny tiny bit, as too much leaves a film on my…
