Oils for the face, body and hair quickly became part of our everyday beauty routine, although a couple of years ago they were new to many.
These products are really effective in care: when you need to get nutrition and hydration in SOS mode, they do a great job.
It is not surprising that they are now also producing oil-based make-up products - for example, for lips. Some of the most prominent representatives of lip tint oils are Volupté Tint-in-Oil from Yves Saint Laurent Beauté and Juicy Shaker from Lancôme. What you need to know about lip oils and which one is better to choose?
Volupté Tint-in-Oil has a truly rich formula - it contains four oils at once: apricot, coriander, stratoflower and jojoba. Together they are a force that can easily combat dry lips, heal microdamages, and take care of youthful skin. Despite the fact that oils are actually the basis of Volupté Tint-in-Oil, the texture of the product is light, almost melting on the lips, and is not at all sticky. The addition of pigments allows you to obtain a coating of a very delicate, natural shade.

Lancôme took a slightly different approach to creating lip makeup with an oily texture. It is heterogeneous: Juicy Shaker is a two-phase product. At the bottom of the tube is a tint with shimmering particles, and on top is a mixture of 4 oils: peach kernels, cranberry, sweet almond and rosehip. In order for these two components of the Juicy Shaker formula to combine, the bottle needs to be shaken, which, by the way, even the name of the product hints at. The result is a shiny, translucent coating on the lips that softens, moisturizes, nourishes, protects with antioxidants, soothes and restores throughout the day. By the way, Juicy Shaker can also be used as an oil for lip plumping. In addition, it attracts attention thanks to its fashionable cushion applicator - it makes application of the product more comfortable than ever.

In the cold season, tint oils can become a worthy replacement for the usual lip balms - they can also save the beauty of lips from the harm of dry air and frosty wind.

Seductive lips - what could be sexier and more attractive to the opposite sex? Caring for them is an integral part of cosmetic procedures to maintain youth and beauty. The delicate skin of the lips, like the rest of the face, requires close attention, starting from a young age.
It is exposed to external influences, which are not always favorable: solar radiation, wind, frost. Not the least important factor in the deterioration of the condition of the lips is the use of cosmetics (lipsticks, glosses), especially those containing synthetic dyes, fragrances, emulsifiers and other dangerous chemical compounds.
Why use lip oil?
According to many women, lip oil, regardless of whether a factory product is used or various homemade compositions of vegetable oils with the addition of natural products and essential oils, improves the condition of delicate skin, prevents dryness, eliminates peeling, and heals damage.
Regular application of oils helps create an invisible film on the lips that protects against chapping, the formation of microcracks and the application of aggressive cosmetics. In addition, oils nourish, soften, moisturize, and restore skin color.
Modern manufacturers pay special attention to the availability of cosmetics in their range: balms, oils, lip glosses, designed to provide high-quality care for the appearance of every woman. Here are just a few of the most common products from well-known brands.
The product contains shea butter (shea butter) and almonds, which is known to be the best combination for moisturizing and nourishing the skin. The product provides complete care throughout the day, intensively enriches the skin with moisture, and maintains ideal softness of the epithelium throughout the entire time of use.
Nivea lip oil is available in a series, so every woman can choose the ideal product based on aroma and personal preferences: “Juicy Raspberry” (gives lips a delicate pink tint), “Cream Caramel” (gives an attractive aroma), “Macadamia Nut” and vanilla" (nourishes the skin thanks to healing nut ingredients).
Unlike traditional balms, nivea lip oil has a thicker and more textured consistency, making its use economical and convenient.
The disadvantages of this product include its individual intolerance and a feeling of discomfort (a feeling of stickiness on the lips and an unpleasant taste), which, as a rule, is observed in rare cases.
Daily use of Clarence oil guarantees high-quality lip care. Moreover, the applied product has cosmetic properties, emphasizing the beauty of the lips with a delicate, alluring and pleasant shade.
Clarins eclat minute lip oil has a weightless cream-like consistency and, when applied, gently shades the skin color, while moisturizing it and promoting the healing of microcracks. In cold weather, the product is indispensable as an effective protection against adverse external influences.
In very rare cases, it is possible to develop allergic reactions to the components of the product, however, any product containing natural ingredients is not immune from this.
The lip oil produced by Libriderm in a convenient packaging with a roller contains a complex of fat-soluble vitamins (A + E), healing oils: castor, shea, cocoa, peach kernels, omega-3 and omega-6 PUFAs, glycerin, aloe extract and other beneficial for skin connections.
Such a diverse composition allows the cosmetic to be used not only for effective lip care, but also to give them an attractive shine in any situation. The oil moisturizes delicate skin, nourishes it and eliminates cosmetic imperfections, such as dryness and flaking.
The product is ideal for sensitive skin of the lips, but if there are herpetic rashes on them, it can cause them to spread to other areas of the skin.
The company TM ChocoLatte has launched a universal lip care product that gives delicate color, full volume and unique sensuality to lips with fat-soluble vitamins, bee products and natural oils: coconut, castor, mango.
The only disadvantage of this product, like other similar care products, is considered to be individual sensitivity and allergies to the components present.
Vegetable and essential oils are widely used both in the production of cosmetic care products for the delicate skin of the lips, and for the preparation of homemade medicinal and nutritional products.
The basis of any cream, gloss or lip balm is vegetable oils, the best of which are considered to be the following:
There are several options for using each of the listed oils.
Firstly, they form the basis of most ready-made cosmetics produced by various companies.
Secondly, they can be applied independently, lubricating cleansed lips several times a day as a nourishing balm.
Thirdly, they can be mixed together in different proportions and used as described above.
Fourthly, they are used as a base (alone or in a composition) for natural essential oils.
Fifthly, they are included in the formulation of combined homemade lip care products, for which there are a great many recipes.
A mask made from low-fat cottage cheese and carrot juice (1:1) has proven itself well. Masks made from the pulp of grapes, cucumbers and melons are also effective. The procedure is carried out in the evening, applying a layer of medium thickness to the lips, for example, during a traditional face mask 1-2 times a week.
Concentrated natural esters from plants are used in lip care only as an auxiliary product. They are never applied in their pure form to the skin of the lips and other areas of the body. We list the most effective essential oils added to homemade or ready-made lip cosmetics:
The basic rule when using essential oils is to maintain the proportion: 1 drop for every 15 ml of the base product (ready-made balm, cream, herbal oil).
Before applying the product with essential oils to your lips for the first time, you should conduct an allergy test. To do this, lubricate the skin on the elbow with a balm with the addition of the required amount of ether. If there is no irritation during the day, the composition is used in small quantities to lubricate the lips. Any discomfort after the procedure should be interpreted as individual intolerance to the composition.
What lip care products to use is up to you to choose. We have provided information about the most common products in this cosmetic line. Beauty and plump lips to you at any age!
How often do we think about how to properly care for our lips, what product should be used, what lip oil can be used throughout the year, what will happen if we ignore emerging skin problems on our lips, and, finally, what exactly should be included in the composition? caring cosmetics.
I hope everyone is already accustomed to properly caring for the skin on their face and body, but we often simply ignore our sponges. But in vain.
The skin on your lips is very similar to the thin skin around your eyes. At the same time, it is even more susceptible to negative environmental factors. Therefore, by the age of 30-40, we will regretfully be able to observe small wrinkles around our own lips, a colorless tint on the lips themselves, an uneven surface, and peeling. And also feel itching, dryness, tightness and even burning.
To prevent these unpleasant phenomena, we recommend starting to use the right lip care products as early as possible. Its composition may include castor oil, olive oil, sea buckthorn, peppermint, cinnamon, jojoba, lavender, auxiliary nutritional and protective components. It is not necessarily expensive, it is not necessarily pigmented, it is not necessarily demanding on storage conditions, which means it is suitable even for 15-year-old girls. And these are the means we have in mind.
The skin on the lips lacks pigment that would protect it from ultraviolet radiation. There are also no sebaceous glands on the lips, which ensure moisture retention, but there are many nerve endings, as a result of which the lips become very sensitive to the effects of negative factors.
Olive oil will quickly get rid of peeling and heal wounds.
Almond oil is ideal for chapping.
Wheat germ oil is a real panacea for cracks and wounds.
Jojoba oil is a liquid wax rich in amino acids similar to collagen. Jojoba ensures the safety of the product and is an excellent antioxidant. Jojoba oil is a storehouse of vitamin E.
Castor oil – softens and perfectly nourishes the skin. Castor oil is well absorbed and applied evenly. It is castor oil that does not dry out, but also does not form an unpleasant film on the lips.
Peach – enriched with fatty acids, rejuvenates and nourishes the skin. Peach pits can be used to scrub your lips.
These are base oils to which essential oils can be added. They are inexpensive, almost everyone has them on hand, so we consider them to be our main assistants in the fight for juicy lips. Along with these, you can use base lip oil made from sea buckthorn, avocado, and grape seeds.
Lavender or cocoa oil is an excellent antiseptic and powerful cell regenerator. Lavender is famous for its properties to quickly heal and restore tissue. Lavender extract very quickly soothes the skin and relieves inflammation.
Melissa and peppermint oil - helps restore a beautiful, natural skin tone on the lips. Mint also speeds up blood circulation.
Shea butter – penetrates deep into the layers of the skin, delivering nutrients to them.
Cinnamon oil – stimulates blood circulation, improves metabolism. Cells begin to renew themselves faster, just like when using mint.
Do not forget that when using essential oil to care for your lips, its amount should be minimal - a drop per teaspoon of base oil (olive, peach, almond, wheat germ).
Essential oils of lavender, lemon and others should never be used in their pure form. It’s better to prepare a balm or caring mixture from them. But the basic ones - almond, jojoba, olive - can be applied without fear.
The skin of the lips is extremely sensitive and receptive. Therefore, oil (whether castor, jojoba, peppermint, olive, peach, lavender or any other) must have a number of properties to care for it:
It must be 100% natural.
The oil should be well absorbed into the skin. Otherwise, it will simply freeze in the cold. And in the summer it will float, causing discomfort. If the oil is well absorbed, then it does a good job of moisturizing and nourishing. This property can be tested on the wrist. These include: castor, jojoba, peppermint, lavender, peach. That is, those that are ideal for our purposes. In general, if the skin is very dry, it absorbs almost any oil.
It is better to choose a lip oil to solve a specific problem: if the skin is dry and flaky, use moisturizers; if cracks and wounds appear, use regenerating and antiseptic ones (in this case, the best choice is lavender).
The purchased product should be easy to apply and have a dispenser or brush. Avoid applying lip oil with your fingers.
Try the oil, feel the aroma and consistency. You should not experience the slightest discomfort.
You can create your own natural, high-quality and very effective lip balm based on oils and your favorite care products. We are pleased to share our exclusive recipe.
Both men and children face this problem, but most often women. Often the reason for this is the use of long-lasting cosmetics. But from today you can forget about the problem of dry and flaky lips. This product is especially suitable in the cold season, but can also protect from the scorching rays of the sun.
Prepare 2 lipstick bottles, a steam bath, and the necessary ingredients:
2 teaspoons beeswax (need to be grated). It is an antiseptic, has antibacterial properties and in this case acts as a dense base.
dark (75%) chocolate – grate 2 teaspoons. In addition to easily improving our mood, it also has excellent astringent qualities, perfectly softens the skin, and has a nourishing effect. In our balm it will give a barely noticeable color.
cocoa butter – 1 teaspoon. Normalizes metabolic processes, neutralizes problems on the lips in the form of microcracks and dryness, makes the skin softer, more supple and elastic.
Place a container of beeswax in a water bath. When it starts to melt, add cocoa butter and chocolate. When the solid ingredients combine, add the oils:
1 teaspoon grape seed oil. It contains linoleic acid, which relieves inflammatory processes. It is this substance that will relieve the unpleasant burning sensation on the lips in a matter of seconds.
1 teaspoon olive oil. Can be replaced with jojoba or peach oil.
1 teaspoon castor or peach. It softens the skin and retains moisture in its cells.
A quarter teaspoon of cinnamon, which accelerates blood circulation, helps nourish the skin. If desired, add 2-3 drops of peppermint. It additionally stimulates blood circulation, providing a pleasant cooling sensation on the lips, but if you overdo the dosage, mint can cause an unpleasant tingling sensation. Mint will make your lips plump.
orange oil – 6 drops. Please note that its anti-inflammatory property will disappear if you add the product to a hot composition.
First, we combine castor, olive (or jojoba) and grape. Then mix all the ingredients thoroughly and remove from the steam bath. We wait 10 minutes until the mass cools to a temperature of 40 degrees. After this, add 6 drops of orange oil to our product. Stir everything again and quickly pour it into lipstick containers. As a rule, 2 bottles will be enough. Without closing the bottle, put the product in the refrigerator for 2 hours.
This balm can be stored in the refrigerator for about a year, and in a cosmetic bag for 2 months. The balm turns out to be quite dense. If you are used to using liquid lipsticks, you can reduce the amount of wax by half and use a brush when applying. Also, instead of a whole spoon, you can use 0.5 spoons of castor oil.
The balm literally immediately relieves the feeling of tightness and burning, perfectly nourishes and relaxes the skin on the lips, making it elastic. We guarantee that with regular use you will forget about peeling and cracking in frosty, windy weather or during the unbearable heat of the summer.
Do not forget to properly and promptly care for the skin on your lips and around your lips. We will share with you everything else you need to know in the following articles.
