Lip Oils: Clarins, Sephora, as well as Lancome

This is a publish that was inspired by polished as well as Inspired! I had shown 2 lip oils in my last favourites publish as well as she asked of the lip oils that I own, which do I like most. That got me believing – maybe I must do a comparison post! thanks for the blog publish idea!

I own 3 lip oils which will be featured today, provided in the buy in which I obtained them:
• Clarins immediate Light Lip comfort Oil in Honey
• Sephora Collection Oil Infusion color & care in 06 Bubbly Grenadine
• Lancôme Juicy Shaker in Berry in Love

I got thinking about lip oils since I already like facial as well as hair oils – it seemed to be a natural next step for me to get into this trend.

Clarins immediate Light Lip comfort Oil in Honey – C$25 for 7ml

This was my very first lip oil which I got late last year during an optimal points Redemption event. It was like at very first use! It is a thicker formula so it stays on the lips much longer than balms, however it’s not as sticky as gloss would be. as well as I like honey flavoured lip products – the odor of this is extremely natural, not a synthetic honey. Unfortunately, it’s doesn’t taste like honey – which is most likely for the very best or else I’d lick my lips all day.  It features jojoba, hazel as well as sunflower seed oils.

The doe-foot applicator is rather unique, featuring a scoop-like paddle shape that curves to hug the lips. There is no colour tint in this oil, however it leaves a shiny surface to the lips. Of the 3 that I own, this has the shiniest surface as well as is the longest enduring – it would be a fantastic lipstick topper. I must note that when I got this, Clarins only used the Honey flavour, however now they offer Raspberry (pink), as well as Red Berry (red) flavours. I have not really seen these in person however I’ve checked out on the internet that they leave a faint tint on the lips as well as no discoloring properties. This is made in France.

Sephora Collection Oil Infusion color & care in 06 Bubbly Grenadine – C$18 for 5.5ml

I bought this in January considering that I’d checked out evaluations on exactly how this is similar to the YSL Volupté Tint-In-Oil. as well as just look at that packaging – it appears like a test tube! This is offered in 9 colours ranging from creamy lavender all the method to a deep vampy brown. Bubbly Grenadine is a bright warm pink that supplies a coral tint to my lips.

The applicator is a normal lip gloss doe-foot applicator with a minor slant – although I must mention that the stem of this wand is very long so it’s a bit unwieldy.  This lip oil feels light on the lips as well as is slippery, as the structure is on the thin side.  It contains Kendi oil as well as shea butter, as well as there is no odor or taste. The surface is rather shiny as well as does leave a faint discolor on my lips as it uses away. Out of the 3 lip oils I have, this is the shortest enduring on the lips. It is made in Italy.

Lancôme Juicy Shaker in Berry in like – C$28 for 6.5ml

I got this in a totally unscripted Lancome haul however I don’t regret it one bit!  This lip oil has the widest variety of shades, used in 14 shades. the most unique function is its mixed drink shaker influenced packaging, just exactly how fun is this!  The flocked cone-shaped application is one of the softest, plushest that I’ve felt on a lip applicator – I’m a bit addicted to applying this to my lips.

Do note that this product does separate, in fact, the official name of this lip oil is “Lip Shaker: Pigment Infused Bi-Phase Lip Oil” so it is indicated to do that. It is rather fun to see the pigment clear up to the bottom, nearly like lava lamp. This doesn’t occur swiftly though, in buy for me to get the above shot, I had to wait 3 days after I’d shaken it up, for the pigment to clear up back down!  There are bit metal spheres inside the shaker that assist mix the pigment, similar to nail polish. This lip oil consists of rosehip, peach kernel, cranberry seed, as well as wonderful almond oils.

I discovered this to have the least amount of radiate of the 3 oils, however the very best discoloring properties (of course, the caveat I would add is that it would depend upon the shade you selected – the lighter colours would not have much colour or discoloring on the lips). The Berry in like shade is a cool-tone berry colour with a hidden blue shimmer – the shimmer isn’t evident on the lips however it looks mesmerizing in the shaker.  The wear time of this lip oil is in the middle of the other 2. It smells like raspberries (different colours have different scents) as well as tastes faintly sweet, which indicates I keep licking my lips as well as have to reapply (which I don’t mind – that incredibly soft applicator!) like the Clarins, this is likewise made in France.

Here are swatches of all 3:

The Sephora Grenadine as well as the Lancôme Berry in like look similar on the arm swatch however on my lipsthey are a lot more unique – Grenadine is warm while Berry in like is cool-toned pink. This is evident on white tissue:

Both are fantastic colours for the summer, actually. This is the discoloring left behind after I tissued the swatches off my skin:

So which one is my favourite? I can’t state definitively considering that I utilize as well as suggest all 3, however I would suggest the following:
• select Clarins if you’re trying to find a long enduring nourishing lip treatment in a sleek, purse friendly packaging
• select Sephora if you’re just starting to try lip oils as well as don’t want to spend as well much money
• select Lancôme if you want something novel housed in a fun little shaker and great colour selection

These are all mid- to higher end of the cost spectrum – I’m sure this pattern will trickle down to drugstore brands soon sufficient (I understand Milani came out with some lip oils, however they’re not easily offered in Canada) – say, a Revlon or Maybelline. I wouldn’t be surprised.  Have you jumped onto the lip oil trend?
