We all know lip masks, labellos and lip glosses, but have you ever heard of lip oil? If TikTok is to be believed, this product is indispensable if you want soft lips. But what is it actually? We went to investigate.
Old school
There are a lot of trends that are coming back from the 90s. One of them is glossy lips. We normally use a lip gloss to get beautiful glossy lips, but there is something new on the market: lip oil. And we understand why this product is so popular. It not only provides beautiful glossy lips, but also has a nourishing effect.
A real hit
Lip gloss is beautiful, but has the major disadvantage that it is very sticky. Before you know it your hair is stuck in it and it doesn’t really feel good on your lips. The advantage of a lip oil is that it is not sticky and yet creates the same glossy effect. And we also see that it is a hit among the stars, because Rihanna and Kylie Jenner also sell a lip oil in their own line.
Quality
So a lip oil is perfect for glossy lips, but what does it do in terms of care? You don’t have to leave it there either, because it is even more effective against dry lips than a balm. However, you have to be careful with cheaper lip products. The quality of the ingredients is often a lot lower and that can actually damage your lips instead of caring for them. In addition, natural oils are also very greasy, which can be detrimental if you are prone to acne.
