The Dior Lip Oil has been all over my TikTok FYP for months now, and I’m here to say the hype is real.
As someone who loves all things beauty and makeup, I have been into lip oils for quite some time now but honestly, there are a few hits and misses.
Some are great, but others feel greasy. The right ones have great formulas that mimic the sheen of lip gloss yet keep your lips moisturised and soft.

And the Dior Addict Lip Oil is one of the best lip oils out there. It’s non-sticky, keeps my lips pillowy soft, and has a delicious vanilla-mint scent.
But the £29.50 price tag can be a little much, especially for its tiny size. Luckily, there are a few Dior Lip Oil dupes that have gorgeous sheer shades and hydrating formulas.
What is a lip oil?
You might be wondering what exactly a lip oil is and why it’s much better than lip gloss, so I’ll give you some quick info about it.
Compared to lip gloss, lip oil is designed to moisturise your lips. Yes, some lip glosses have skin-nourishing properties, but not all of them do.
Lip oils contain a subtle amount of pigment, so the colour is not as noticeable as it is in lipsticks or glosses. While lip gloss adds shine, lip oil has a similar finish but is less sticky.
