There are many different lip products to choose from. We’re talking gloss, liquid lipsticks, balms, lip stains, lipsticks, scrubs, and even lip coats. But there is one lip product that you may not be familiar with: lip oils. You may not be as well known as some of the others, but that could change. Especially since more and more brands are expanding their product range to include oils.
If you’re a fan of facial oils or oil-based shampoos, it’s high time you discovered lip oils. What sets them apart from the other products on the market is that they are oil based, just as the name suggests. The resulting product is packed with moisturizing ingredients to keep your lips soft and flake-free. Plus, they deliver a shiny finish and pop of color without the stickiness we associate with lip gloss.
Read on for 12 lip oils to add to your makeup stash.
