We can all agree that chapped lips are never a good look. So if you find yourself forever reaching for the lip balm, its time to swot up on the latest lip hero product that will fast become your go-to.

　　What is a lip oil and what does it do? A lip oil is a hybrid of a nourishing balm and a high-shine gloss. Not only do lip oils provide stellar hydration throughout the day, but the finish is also similar to a gloss.

　　A hydrating lip care product that looks good, too? Reader, the beauty gods have spoiled us.

　　Lip oils are available in an array of shades, flavours and finishes so there is one out there for everyone.

　　Whats the difference between a lip balm and a lip oil? A lip balm coats and protects your lips from drying, whereas a lip oil penetrates deep into the skin for hydration that improves over time.

　　Lip oils are often a lot more natural and their main ingredients often include avocado oil and honey.
