Review : Maybelline Lip Smooth Color Bloom (Pink Blossom)

Hi all !!
Today i'd be reviewing another addition to my lip balms, and that is Maybelline Lip Smooth color Bloom in shade Pink Blossom. I was regretting because i couldn't buy Maybelline Smooth lip color and care , so i splurged and bought this lip balm from UrbanTouch here


Price : INR 99/-
Quantity : 1.7gms
Shelf Life : 3yrs


It comes packed inside a cardboard packaging with all the details. The lip balm's packaging is quite sturdy, and is slim & slender in shape.


Claims & Ingredients :-


The lip balm is creamy white in color, which changes color in 3-4 seconds after contact with lips. It provides sheer lip color, and is moisturizing but not much. The color is build-able and on my pigmented lips it tends to go dark cherry in color if i layer it in order to provide some moisture to my lips , so i can say that it is a lipstick in form of balm !


Swatch :-


On girls with less pigmented lips, it might turn out as a pretty pink and more of Fuchsia pink, but on my pigmented lips its more of a berry shade with a decent tint. The "tint" doesn't settles into fine lines, and leaves a nice tint on my lips, more like a stain. I spotted one more shade in this range, i.e peach blossom.

What i like about it :-
  • Its super pretty shade and i just love the way it changes color !
  • Very sweet candyfloss kind of fragrance
  • Its not greasy or waxy !
  • Slender packaging ; a nice change from the rest of the balms i have.
  • For me it works in 2 ways, a lip balm and a lipstick .
  • Super affordable 
  • Easily available online and in stores.
  • Has a shelf life of 3yrs which is good enough for the lip balms.
  • This will last me easily for a year besides i know i'll be using it on alternate days.

What i don't like about it :-
  • One can easily over paint the lips in order to provide moisturization to lips !
  • Doesn't hydrates lips for a longer time.
Have you tried this lip balm yet ?? Share in your thoughts !!

Godbless !
