Maybelline - Electro Baby Lips Review

I just recently got the baby lips in the shade oh orange!




PROS
this is such a gorgeous orange colour
Although it is quite sheer with one application, if you build multiple coats, it can be quite vibrant
I feel like if you apply one application, it's fine.
CONS
BUT! If you apply 2 applications or more, it start to feel quite caked on. 
Also I have been using this product for a couple of weeks and
 have noticed I start to get lines and gunky stuff on my lips. 

SWATCHES


COLOUR
4/5

LONG-WEAR
3/5

CONS
1/5 

OVERALL RATING 
I would give this product a 2.5/5 or 3/5 because even though it can be quite vibrant, it makes your
lips feel quite gross and sticky. With one coat, it gives your lips a sheer hint which is fine. 


EXTRA THOUGHTS
Would I purchase this again?
Maybe, I may like to try some other colours. 


I hope you guys liked this post and comment if you want me to do a review on the new
Doctor Rescue Baby Lips :)

BUY & DIY: wall decals

1. DIY Wall Decals

Things you need:

- duck tape
- scissors (non-stick scissors are optional)
- a pen
- a template (I chose a butterfly)
- a couple sheets of paper
- tape

The first thing you want to do is take your template and cut it out. Once you have that you take two strips of duck tape and lay them on a non- stick surface, with slight overlap. Make sure your strips are a little bit longer than your template. Then you take your template, and lay it over the strips, take your pen and trace your template on the duck tape strips/sheet. You want to take your scissors and cut out the shape out of the duck tape you just drew. Then you lay your shape on the piece of paper and cut it out. You no can tape your decal on a spot on your wall! You can make as many as you want to.

The Final Product:






I chose butterflies :)
