Did we mention the scent? Reminiscent of our childhood chapsticks with zero stickiness, pair with Fenty Gloss Bomb to take your lips from daytime shine to night-time glam.

“Good for dry lips and for a pretty lippy. This is one of my new favourite lip oils, it's affordable and has a big applicator, it's so pretty, and the cherry taste is amazing. It's nice on dry lips and they're cruelty-free, 100% I recommend.” - Zoey, Customer Review

Shiny lips are our go-to, which means so is this Clarins lip oil. It plumps and nourishes lips with a trio of plant oils such as Organic Sweetbriar Rose Oil, Jojoba Oil and Hazelnut Oil. Never sticky, it gives a soft pinch of colour to lips and even has five pH-reactive shades - so your lips shine in a shade unique to you. And if your lips need a little more loving, use shade 01 Honey as an overnight moisture mask.

When the name says it all, what more could we possibly add? Well, we would just like to confirm that Summer Fridays Lip Oil really is as good as it sounds. Super-plush and pretty, it glides on like a dream, delivering high shine, tinted colour and deep hydration. A triple threat and great on the go, try it on its own for a subtle wash of colour, or over your favourite lipstick for added definition. Psst, you’re not dreaming. 

This is 93% natural and 100% one of our favourite tinted lip oils. Once you’ve tried this, there’s no going back. With Annatto Oil to keep colour from fading and a texture that melts onto lips, we love to use this over the Rouge Is Not My Name Satin Lipstick for a high-shine finish. Did we mention it locks in moisture for over 12 hours and improves your moisture barrier over time? Sounds like a long-term lip investment; one we’re more than ready to make.

If you’re looking for a little more glow from your lip oil then you have to try Bobbi Brown. Limited edition and part of the brand’s Polished Grunge Collection, it brings a juicy pop of undone colour to the lips and cheeks. The high-gloss, non-sticky finish mimics the sporty flush of the ‘90s, meaning you get more natural glow than artificial shine. 

Lip Dew is Vieve’s seriously-glossy lip oil, which gives glass-like shine and unrivalled softness. The secret is its moisturising Raspberry Seed Oil Extract and Vitamin E, which deeply nourishes dry lips while the Camellia Oil soothes your pout. Plus, it gives the illusion of fuller-looking lips. Tick, tick. Use the clear Mirror lip oil by itself or over a matte lipstick for added shine.

A high-shine lip gloss-oil hybrid, it's time to pucker up for Too Faced's Kissing Jelly Lip Oil Gloss. It's formulated with a nourishing blend of oils, including Sunflower Seed Oil, to soften your pout, and has a comfortable texture that's non-sticky and non-greasy, too. Treating your lips to sheer candy colours and oh-so juicy scents, enjoy working your way through the collection. 

The OG of lip stains, Benefit's Benetint gives you the hottest flush you can get from a bottle. This iconic rose-tinted lip stain has earned itself cult status, loved by celebs, makeup artists, you and us! Offering a sheer and buildable natural finish, it's long-lasting, smudge-proof, and takes seconds to apply. Simply glide it across the lips or dot and blend on the cheeks. The final touch? A slick of gloss for kissable colour that really lasts.

If there’s one lip oil we turn to time and time again, it’s Gisou Lip Oil. Infused with the brand’s signature Mirsalehi Honey, Hyaluronic Acid and a host of Botanical Extracts, expect long-lasting shine and your most nourished lips yet with this sellout treatment. And with the powder pink lid and Scandinavian dream bottle, our shelfie game just got a whole lot better. Want a little extra sparkle? Try their Honey Infused Lip Oil in Golden Shimmer Glow.

“Perfect for everyone. I personally have such a hard time finding the right products that will hydrate my lips (and not make them look super cakey) and that suits my skin tone. This product does both. It hydrates your lips to make them plump and then the product uses your pH to adjust the colour of your lips. Haus Labs does it again!” - Anna, Customer Review
