Super hydrating, full of nourishment and offering a natural high-shine finish, a lip oil is a handbag essential for all occasions. Due to it's structure, oils are able to penetrate much deeper into the skin, helping to replenish hydration levels long-term, creating a plumper and healthier-looking pout. Not sticky in texture and sinking into the skin, these multi-tasking formulas can be worn alone or underneath a lipstick, with many brands offering tinted lip oils to do both jobs.
