Chapped lips are the bane of my existence, but sometimes, regular chapstick just doesn’t give that pop of color you’re looking for (don’t tell my Vaseline stick I said that). On the other hand, sometimes, lip glosses don’t moisturize your lips in the way you need them to. What’s the solution to this minor crisis? Hydrating lip oils, bby. Lip oils combine nourished lips with glossy shine. Unlike regular lip balm and lip gloss, lip oils protect and nourish your lips while making them look gorgeous at the same time.
Lip oils are usually infused with natural ingredients like Vitamin E, argan oil, honey, and more to keep your lips feeling and looking healthy. Most importantly (to me, at least), lip oils aren’t sticky! Sticky lips are a major no-no. After Dior released their lip oil in 2020, the lip oil craze blew up. Practically every makeup line ever has released their own version of a lip oil since then, from Kylie Cosmetics to e.l.f Cosmetics. If you’re looking for softened, hydrated, and juicy lips that are naturally enhanced with a subtle splash of color, this list of 43 lip oils is exactly what you need.
