Lip oils have taken the beauty world by storm, and they've definitely earned a permanent spot in my makeup routine. These picks combine nourishment, tint, and shine, making them a go-to for both minimal and glam looks.


Here are my current favorites that I keep reaching for!


Rare Beauty – Tinted Lip Oil in Honesty


This gel-to-oil formula starts off with a glossy finish and gradually leaves a soft tint behind. The shade "Honesty," a beautiful warm brown, is perfect for daily wear. It layers well if you want a bolder look, yet still feels weightless on the lips. With eight gorgeous shades available, it's a great option if you're just starting to explore lip oils.


Merit – Shade Slick Tinted Lip Oil in Au Naturel


Sitting perfectly between a gloss and a balm, this formula provides hydration that lasts. “Au Naturel” offers a flattering warm blush tone that enhances your natural lip color. With nourishing ingredients like rosehip oil, grapeseed oil, shea butter, and jojoba oil, it glides on effortlessly and suits almost any makeup look.


Clarins – Lip Comfort Oil in 04 Pitaya


Arguably one of the originals in the lip oil category, this one delivers intense shine with a subtle tint. "Pitaya" adds a juicy pop of color while keeping lips hydrated thanks to its unique blend of botanical oils. It’s especially helpful during colder months when lips are prone to dryness. No surprise it’s an Allure Best of Beauty award winner.


These lip oils do more than just add shine, they nourish, protect, and enhance. If you're looking to elevate your lip game with something effortless yet impactful, any of these will be a great addition to your routine!
