I Love My Luxury Lip Oil, But I'd Recommend These Affordable Alts to Anyone

The OG.

I've been seeing this lip oil all over TikTok, and in my opinion, it's worth the hype. The Glow Reviver Lip Oil gives that super-glossy, shiny finish without feeling sticky on the lips. The formula contains a blend of squalane and apricot, avocado and jojoba oils, and has a refreshing, minty scent. Plus, the applicator is very similar to Dior's high-end alternative. For just £8, you really can't go wrong.

Next in line for me is this one from Kosas. I recently got my hands on this oil/gloss hybrid, and I'm seriously impressed. It looks more like a gloss, but the formula contains hyaluronic acid, shea butter and peptides to hydrate and plump the lips. Although it doesn't last quite as long as the Dior lip oil on my lips, it was easy to reapply throughout the day thanks to the doe-foot applicator. I've received so many compliments since wearing this that it's become a staple in my makeup bag.

If you've read our guide to the best lip oils of all time, then you'll know that we're big fans of Vieve's Lip Dew. Not only does this product look beautiful on the lips (it gives a seriously gorgeous sheen), but the addition of green tea extract helps to soothe dryness.

This hybrid formula from Rimmel contains lots of moisturising ingredients and delivers a seriously glossy tint.

Yep, even Beauty Pie does a lip oil. I love this option as it's infused with collagen to give a plumping effect, whilst cherry and hibiscus oils provide hydration. 

If you prefer a clear lip oil, then this is the one for you. The formula is super hydrating thanks to ingredients such as sweet cherry seed oil and jojoba seed oil, and one application will give your lips a subtle sheen that's perfect for everyday wear. 

Another TikTok favourite is Nyx Fat Oil Lip Drip Gloss, and after seeing the results online, I'm sold. This product also has a similar applicator to the Dior lip oil, and the formula contains cloudberry oil, raspberry oil and squalane to hydrate and add shine. Oh, and did I mention that it's only £8?

Lottie London's lip oil really is one of the best affordable options I've tried. It adds shine and hydrates the lips, and thanks to the price, I don't mind reapplying it throughout the day when needed.

Not only does Gisou's lip oil look great, but it feels great too. The honey-infused formula glides onto the lips and adds a healthy-looking shine.

Last but by no means least, say hello to the PhD Hybrid Lip Oil from Haus Labs. This tinted oil contains vegan collagen and prickly pair oil to plump and hydrate, and the non-sticky formula adds a lipgloss-worthy finish.
