I saw the Baby Lips Dr. Rescue Medicated Balm display
originally posted on Instagram and I knew I had to pick one up. I am a
medicated lip balm junkie! I love that tingle/burn on my lips from a medicated
balm because I just feel like when it tingles, it means its working and
hydrating.
I stumbled upon the display at my local Christmas Tree Shop
and sadly the plain shade was not available, so I was in a toss up between Just
Peachy and Berry Sorbet. I ended up
going with Baby Lips Dr. Rescue Medicated Balm in Just Peachy
because I had hoped it would be like the regular Baby Lips in Peach Kiss,
which is one of my favorites. Unfortunately after bringing it home I
quickly found that the medicated Just Peachy is actually a LOT more pigmented
than the plain ole regular Just Peachy. The regular just peachy goes on rather sheer
against my skin tone and looks like a translucent lip balm when on my lips. The
medicated one goes on rather pink, more pale pink instead of peach. It just looks crazy against my skin tone
which completely bums me out.
I’ve been using this by dabbing it against my lips to get
the faintest amount of product on my lips and it shows up more translucent than
pale pink. Even with the dabbing effect I can feel the cooling/tingling sensation
that comes with medicated lip balms. Now
I wish I had picked up Berry Sorbet … but I may end up having to go back at
some point to pick it up.
QUESTION:
Have you tried out any of the new Baby Lips Dr. Rescue
Medicated Balms?
Had the same problem with this color. I was really disappointed :(
