I love high-end makeup as much as the next beauty editor does, but if I can find an affordable gem that revivals my $50+ formulas, best believe I’m never letting it go. Case in point, E.l.f.’s new addition to its family of lip products, the Glow Reviver Lip Oil ($8). I don’t always love lipstick; I much prefer lip oils and lip glosses, so I knew instantly this would be right up my alley. My ride-or-die formulas in this department include the Lawless Forget the Filler Lip Plumping Gloss ($26) and Ami Colé Hydrating Lip Treatment Oil ($20), but I also love the very luxurious (and expensive) Dior Glow Lip Oil ($40).
If you’re also a fan of the viral Dior oil, you’re definitely going to want to snag one of these shades from E.l.f. What I love most about Dior’s particular lip oil is that it’s incredibly glossy, hydrating, and plumps your lips without being sticky or too much for everyday wear. It’s a formula that’s truly hard to top, but this new option from E.l.f. is giving it a run for its money.
It provides a glassy finish, contains nourishing and hydrating ingredients, and enhances your lips’ natural color. It also comes in a variety of shades that act as the perfect sheer gloss or can be a topper for a lipstick if you love a richer color on your lips. Last but *certainly* not least, it’s just $8, so you can snag at least four shades, and it will still cost less than one $40 lip oil from Dior. Honestly, I love my Dior lip oil more than anything, so I definitely won’t be throwing that formula out. But to have a variety of colors around that look just as gorgeous and cost a fraction of the price? Sign me up!
