8 Lip Oils That Will Keep Your Pout Hydrated All Fall
Color and comfort.
Colder months are right around the corner, and it’s customary to change up your skincare products when the temperature and humidity drops. Gone are your favorite self tanners or lightweight products in favor of heavy-duty moisturizers and hydrating essences. But what about lips? Your kisser needs extra protection too, and there's nothing better, IMO, than a lip oil to provide your mouth with some extra comfort. If you've never tried a beauty oil for your face or body, just know that there are few products that can deliver better hydration, conditioning, comfort, nourishment, and environmental protection than they can. And the right oil will do the same thing for your lips.
If you’re all too familiar with dry, chapped, or cracking lips during the fall and winter, a lip oil will keep your pout smooth and moisturized. And you don't even have to sacrifice color for comfort. There are plenty of lip oils that come in fun and flattering shades — kind of like a lipgloss, only better.
If you're itching to try one, here are eight lip oils that will not only hydrate, condition, and protect against the harsh, winter elements, but will also impart some healthy shine and color.
