Any questions?
Our experts have the answers.
What is a lip oil?
A lip oil is a hybrid lip product that blends the hydration of a lip balm with the glossy finish of a lip gloss, using nourishing oils rather than a heavy, sticky base. It hydrates and softens the lips while adding shine and, in tinted versions, a sheer hint of colour. Clarins Lip Comfort Oil uses a trio of plant oils, jojoba, sweet-briar rose and hazelnut, to care for lips while it shines.
What does lip oil do for your lips?
Lip oil seals in moisture, smooths flaky skin and leaves a glossy, healthy-looking finish. Its antioxidant-rich plant oils hydrate and help protect the lips from drying conditions such as sun, wind and air-conditioning. With Clarins Lip Comfort Oil, lips feel softer and more comfortable, with hydration lasting up to 8 hours.
What is the difference between a lip oil and a lip balm?
The main difference is finish: a lip balm focuses on protection and is usually matte or lightly satin, while a lip oil offers similar hydration plus a high-shine, glossy look and often a sheer tint. Lip oils tend to feel lighter and glossier, making them a good choice when you want lip care and a polished finish in a single step.
Are lip oils good for dry or chapped lips?
Yes, lip oils suit dry or chapped lips because their plant-oil base hydrates and helps seal in moisture rather than sitting dry on the surface. Used regularly, a lip oil softens and smooths flaky skin, and a clear shade can be worn overnight as a leave-on mask for softer lips by morning. This makes it especially useful in dry, sunny or air-conditioned environments.
Do lip oils plump your lips?
Lip oils give lips a fuller, smoother look mainly through hydration, which plumps the appearance of the lip surface and softens the look of fine lines. The effect is a natural, temporary "visibly plumper" finish rather than the dramatic change of a cosmetic procedure. The Clarins Lip Comfort Oil is formulated to nourish and visibly plump for a healthy, cushioned look.
How do I use lip oil?
Swipe the wand over clean, bare lips for instant shine and hydration, layer it over a lipstick such as Joli Rouge for added colour, or apply the clear Honey shade as an overnight lip mask. Because the formula is non-sticky, one coat often lasts through much of the day, and you can reapply whenever lips feel dry or you want extra shine.
Is lip oil better than lip gloss?
Lip oil and lip gloss both add shine, but lip oil is generally more nourishing because its oil base hydrates and conditions the lips while it shines, rather than just coating them. Glosses can feel sticky or even drying over time, whereas a lip oil feels lightweight and comfortable. Clarins Lip Comfort Oil offers the comfort of a balm with the shine of a gloss, plus hydration that lasts up to 8 hours.
Can I wear lip oil every day?
Yes, lip oil is designed for daily use. Its lightweight, non-sticky texture keeps lips hydrated and protected throughout the day, and you can reapply as often as you like for ongoing comfort and shine. It layers easily over other lip products, so it fits into both everyday and evening routines.
