Essence Hydra Kiss Lip Oil

Lip oil has been a rage for a while and I found myself intrigued. I love lip balm and gloss and even lipstick. A lip oil would be a totally new experience. I found this Essence Lip Oil that by the looks of it has a bit of a pinkish tone.

What does Essence say about their products?
Essence hydra kiss LIP OIL creates a high-shine, non-sticky finish. Hyaluronic acid, jojoba oil, vitamin E and meadowfoam oil are a real power combo for super supple and moisturised lips. The ultra-light lip oil gives lips a hint of colour that matches with any skin tone! Read more here.

My thoughts
This lip oil feels not like a oil at all, it feels very much like a tacky lipgloss. I thought it would be a bit thinner than it actually is. It’s not bad at all but it looks and feels like a lipgloss. It doesn’t really have a colour but I do not mind that at all. I do like the big doe foot applicator, you have to swipe your lips once to have them fully covered. The lip oil smells amazing, it smells very much like roses.

This product comes in three colours 01 Kiss from a rose, 02 Honey, Honey!, 03 Pink Champagne
The product contains 4 ml or 0.13 fl. oz. The lip oil retails for 2.99. If you don’t mind a tacky lip I do think this is a recommendation.
