Lip gloss has been a beloved cosmetic for decades. Unfortunately, many lip glosses go on with a high-shine finish and disappear before you leave the door. What’s even worse is that once the gloss is gone, your lips are left naked, dry, and uncomfortable until you reapply. 

But, fear not, there’s a way to still get the high-shine finish of a gloss with long-lasting moisture. They’re called lip oils. They are non-sticky products that nourish the lips white adding a hint of color. So, when you’ve eaten lunch, you’re still left with soft comfortable lips.

Rare Beauty by Selena Gomez

The Rare Beauty by Selena Gomez Tinted Lip Oil has quickly become a consumer favorite. Boasting a color range of pinks, browns, and purples, the lip oil does more than offer a sheer shine.

The vegan option goes on with a gel-to-oil formula that glides on glossy. But, once the glossiness disappears, it leaves a long-lasting lip stain behind. Best of all, the moisturizing oil is never sticky!

While a lot of brands are just launching lip oils, Dior’s Lip Glow Oil has been a staple in many makeup bags for years. There are currently eight high-shine sheer colors available. Plus, each lip oil color has a minty-vanilla scent that won’t sting your lips.

What makes this option so popular is not just the Dior name, but the nourishment that this oil provides. With a few swipes of the doe foot applicator, the cherry oil-rich formula protects the lips from environmental stressors and drying out.
