Pretty sure if you are heavy in social media or in the beauty space, lip oils are all the craze right now. I was a little hesitant to try them at first but I have to say I really love them. I actually had to take it slow at first with the lip oils because of the reactions I’ve been having lately (I don’t like this getting older lol) but let’s dive a little more into the lip oil craze lol.

So what is a lip oil? I had to look this up myself because I just assumed that it was another type of lip gloss but no lol. A lip oil is skincare/makeup hybrid that has nourishing plant based oils that intensely moisturize your lips and deliver a gloss like shine. Lips oils are also an intensive lip treatment that alleviates flaky, dry lips. Most lip oils contain ingredients such as jojoba oil, vitamin e and argan oil which are all very moisturizing.
Basically it is like a lip balm in a way and has more nourishing and hydrating benefits than your regular lip gloss. I see why so many people love lip oils so much. They come in a variety of colors and from different brands ranging from high end to drugstore. I’ve tried the ones by Milani and ELF so far and really love them. I actually use my lip balm first and then place the lip oil on top. Lip oils are not sticky at all and seem pretty lightweight. I love that they have this high shine gloss like your typical lip gloss and just look amazing on the lips. I love wearing them when I’m not wearing makeup and with very light makeup.
I am really interested in trying out more lip oils from different brands. I know there are so many out there but the Milani is my absolute favorite so far. When I try more of the lip oils, I’ll have a more full in-depth review on them but I will say I am loving this trend so far. Have you tried any lip oils? Do you have a favorite? Let’s chat!
