A smooth, healthy pout doesn’t happen by chance. According to the British Association of Dermatologists, dry lips are one of the most common skin complaints in the UK, especially during colder months. So how can you keep your lips soft, hydrated, and irresistibly glossy? At Crystalline Clinic, we swear by a simple yet effective lip care routine with lip oils—and today, I’m excited to share exactly how you can build yours!
Why a Lip Care Routine with Lip Oils is Essential
Let’s be honest—lips deserve more attention than we often give them. They’re exposed to harsh weather, dehydration, and everyday wear. Unlike the rest of your skin, lips lack oil glands, making them prone to dryness and cracking. This is where a consistent lip care routine with lip oils makes all the difference.
Lip oils do more than add shine. They lock in moisture, provide nourishment, and protect the delicate skin on your lips from environmental stressors. Plus, they make your lips look plumper and healthier!
The Best Steps for a Lip Care Routine with Lip Oils
Let me walk you through a routine we recommend at Crystalline Clinic for the best results:
1. Exfoliate
Once or twice a week, gently exfoliate your lips with a sugar scrub or a soft toothbrush. This removes dead skin cells and allows your lip oil to penetrate more effectively.
2. Hydrate
Drink plenty of water. Hydration starts from the inside out! Your lips will reflect the level of hydration in your body.
3. Apply Lip Oil Daily
The star of the show: our Hydrate & Shine CC Lip Oil. We formulated this beautiful product with nourishing ingredients like jojoba oil and vitamin E. It’s lightweight but ultra-hydrating, perfect for daily use or as an overnight treatment. You can use it on its own or over your favourite lipstick for a glossy finish that doesn’t feel sticky. You can check out our lip oil here.
4. Protect
When outdoors, always choose products that include SPF. The skin on your lips is thin and vulnerable to sun damage, which can lead to premature ageing.
5. Consistency is key
Stick to this routine, and you’ll notice softer, plumper lips within days. Trust me, your smile will thank you!
Lip Care Routine with Lip Oils: Top Tips for All-Day Hydration
Now that you know the steps, here are some of our best tips to make your lip care routine with lip oils even more effective:
- Apply after brushing your teeth: This is when your lips are clean and prepped to absorb all that hydration.
- Use a humidifier at night: It helps prevent overnight moisture loss, especially in winter.
- Avoid licking your lips: This actually dries them out faster.
- Reapply throughout the day: Keep a small bottle of lip oil in your bag for quick touch-ups.
Why Our Hydrate & Shine CC Lip Oil Stands Out
There are so many lip oils out there, but we created ours with both luxury and performance in mind. Our formula is vegan, cruelty-free, and loaded with skin-loving oils that not only hydrate but also protect and enhance the natural colour of your lips. It feels silky, never greasy, and has just the right amount of shine. Whether you’re going makeup-free or layering over lipstick, it’s a must-have in every lip care routine.
Plus, it’s UK-made, with premium ingredients that are safe and effective. Take a look at our Hydrate & Shine CC Lip Oil here. We’re so proud of it!
Supporting Lip Health from Within
While a strong lip care routine with lip oils is crucial, don’t forget the inside-out approach. A balanced diet rich in vitamins B, C, and E supports skin health, including your lips. And if you’re looking for that extra boost, our vitamin booster treatments can help improve skin hydration and overall wellbeing.
