With the nourishing properties of a balm and the high-shine sheen of a gloss, lip oils are the latest treatment for our pout that we simply can't get enough of.
As with the hydrating oils we use on our face and body, lip oils contain a myriad of soothing and moisturising ingredients which work to intensely hydrate the skin, leaving lips plump and gorgeously smooth.
Known as the anti-ageing lip product, lip oils help to minimise the appearance of fine lines around the mouth - one of the earliest signs of skin ageing. As they deeply hydrate and plump the skin on and around your lips, lip oils are a new essential in anti-ageing skincare routines.
ESPA Nourishing Lip Treatment
Since lip oils made their mark in the beauty world, we've moved away from our favourite balms to see what all the fuss has been about. Although there have been some noteworthy contenders, we've fallen head over heels for the ESPA Nourishing Lip Treatment.
Of course ESPA, who specialise in luxurious spa-inspired products, have created an indulgent lip product which feels as close to a spa-treatment as a lip care can get.
Enriched with Hyaluronic Acid and Konjac Root, the Lip Treatment deeply nourishes and plumps the lips, promoting moisture retention and minimising the appearance of fine lines. Indian Gentian Leaves also help to smooth the lips, leaving your pout beautifully soft.
As an oil, the ESPA Nourishing Lip Treatment coats your lips in a glorious high-shine finish. Unlike many traditional lip glosses, the Lip Treatment has a non-sticky formula which applies smoothly, giving you the beautiful shine you long for without the tacky finish.
Apply throughout the day as and when your lips are in need of some moisture or apply over your favourite lip colour as a glossy topcoat for a high-shine finish.
The Lip Treatment is also a heavenly overnight lip care treatment. When applied to the contours of your lips, the oil works to minimise the lines on the skin around your mouth for a younger-looking smile.
