MAJOR GLOW SOFTENING LIP MASQUE by Patrick Ta
The Major Glow Softening Lip Masque has been a staple in my skincare routine since I first tried it at the beginning of 2021. Situated in its gorgeous packaging, this sheer peachy-toned treatment can easily be scooped out of the tub, providing an instant hit of hydration through its ultra-creamy texture with a swipe of your finger or a brush. With a mint chocolate scent, this treatment not only smells amazing but gives your lips a cooling experience. I just wish it came in a traditional balm format, or in a squeezy-tube, so I could take it on the go wherever I am. Regardless, it my go-to balm day-to-night.
LIP OIL by Kylie Skin
With a large applicator, the Kylie Skin Lip Oil is a brilliant way of achieving a quick hydration fix if you’re on-the-go. While some lip oils can be thick, this one is incredibly light-weight while providing amazing hydration. With a very gentle scent, it’s a great everyday option which can live in your handbag.
LIP BUTTER BALM by Summer Fridays
The Summer Friday’s Lip Butter Balm has become somewhat of a cult classic product in recent times. While the formula is less creamy than Patrick Ta’s Softening Lip Masque, it gives your lips an instant hit of hydration (without the minty sensation) and leaves them looking super smooth and healthy. Coming in a squeezy-tube and three different shades, they’re a great on-the-go balm and my favourite one is Vanilla (clear) which actually smells like vanilla too.
DIOR ADDICT LIP GLOW OIL by Dior Beauty
While this is classed as a makeup product rather than a skincare product, the Dior Addict Lip Glow Oils are brilliant for achieving instant and long-lasting hydration. Described as an intense lip care formula, they come in seven sheer shades, and are designed to bring out your lips natural colour. Compared to the Lip Oil by Kylie Skin, the Dior Addict oils are thicker and have a more gloss-like texture and look with a high-shine finish, while maintaining a non-sticky and non-greasy feel. My favourite shade is 001 Pink.
