Benefit n°1: Nourishing your lips
Tinted lip oil is a hybrid of makeup and skincare. Tinted lip oil is packed with botanical oils that contain nutrients and omega-3, 6 or 9, which deeply nourish your lips and stop them from drying out. These botanical oils leave a film on your lips to hold moisture in their tissue. The most common oils used in this type of product are jojoba (INCI: "Simmondsia Chinensis Seed Oil"), macadamia (INCI: "Macadamia Ternifolia Seed Oil"), hazelnut (INCI: "Corylus Avellana Seed Oil"), mirabelle plum (INCI: "Prunus Insititia Seed Oil") and sunflower (INCI: "Helianthus Annuus Seed Oil/Wax").
Benefit n°2: Plumping your lips
Certain lip oils are enriched with active molecules that plump up lips by rehydrating them, like hyaluronic acid, or by stimulating blood microcirculation with “warming” ingredients which give lips a tingly sensation on application for an immediate “plumped” effect.
Benefit n°3: Protecting your lips from external irritants
The skin on your lips is very thin and permeable compared to that of the rest of your face. Your lips don’t have sebaceous glands or sweat glands to create a protective hydrolipidic film like the rest of your body, which means they’re put to the test when they come in contact with cold, wind, UV rays, rain, and pollution.
To help limit these irritants, certain lip oils are enriched with vitamin E, also known as tocopherol, and known for its antioxidant benefits. It neutralizes the effect of free radicals on your skin and protects it from external irritants (pollution, UV…) which accelerate skin aging, leaving your lips more plump and youthful in appearance.
Benefit n°4: Coloring your lips and giving them a healthy glow
Even though lip oils are generally less rich in pigments than lipsticks, they can still give your lips a natural pop of color.
Benefit n°5: A comfortable feeling with every application
Unlike lip glosses, which are often full of polymers that leave a sticky film on your lips, lip oils slide and don’t stick. They simply highlight your lips’ natural beauty.
