Lip oils and lip glosses are the hottest products in the beauty world at the minute. The days of flat and matte lipstick are numbered, which is good news for brides with dry lips as some matte formulas could be quite drying. So here we are rejoicing that high-shine, super hydrating and comfortable lip oils and lip glosses are having their moment. They are perfect for a wedding look and your honeymoon while you relax on a sun lounger, and best of all gloss formulas have come a long way from the sticky, tacky concoctions that saw us forever pulling hair off our pouts at even the hint of a breeze. That's why we have picked these 15 chic and trending lip buys. See which one catches your eye from our list below. Mirsalehi's honey-infused haircare brand, Gisou, has applied the same clean, deeply nourishing formula to Gisou Honey Infused Lip Oil. Adding hyaluronic acid helps hydrate and boost lip volume for a high-shine but non-tacky lip look. This will be one of the hottest lip oils for brides. One of the OG lip oils on the market, Clarins Lip Comfort Oil comes in 10 shades, and each is very lightly pigmented. Made with 93% naturally derived ingredients, 30% of which are beautiful botanical oils of organic jojoba, hazelnut and organic rosehip star extract, these are super nourishing. Chic, wearable and very comfortable. Who could resist some Pillow Talk lip love in a glossy and plumping formula? Charlotte has added heat and ice technology to both shades of this Big Lip Plumpgasm lip gloss for different skin tones. The effect is immediate; the lips look and feel plumper and smoother. There are 15 shades in the new YSL Love Shine lipstick, and the whole world wants No. 44 above, as it's the colour YSL ambassador Dua Lipa wears in the lipstick's campaign imagery. Creamy, hydrating, shiny and oh-so covetable, this is exactly the type of lip product you want peeping out of your honeymoon beach bag. Pricey but heavenly, La Mer The Lip Volumizer lip oils come in just five shades, each as lovely as the next. Non-sticky and deeply hydrating, the Volumizer makes your lips feel like they are drenched in luxury. The bottles are chic, and the shades are sheer and sophisticated. The launch that started the lip oil craze, the Dior Addict Lip Glow Oil doubles as a high-shine gloss and a nourishing oil infused with cherry. The brand wisely launched in different shades following the original's success; now there are eight colours and a transparent version. Non-sticky, it's the ultimate clutch bag accessory. Irish brand Sculpted by Aimee has one of the best lip lines. From lip liner and lipstick pens to this smart Liquid Lustre in Bare Basics lipstick and lip gloss duo, the affordable brand always comes up trumps. The perfect nude shade for all skin tones: at one end, a lightweight lipstick; at the other, a coloured gloss. Wear separately or together, easily. There are five shades in Vieve Lip Dew, but the original gold-flecked version is a favourite as it can be worn alone or over any lipstick shade to give a touch of sparkle and comfort. The lip oils have the shine of a gloss and the nourishment of a balm. Lip Dew makes the lips look fuller in a single swipe. The best-selling Rare Beauty Soft Pinch Tinted Lip Oil from Selena Gomez is the viral lip oil you've seen all over social media. Available in eight shades (Hope, above, is a star buy), the lip oil can be layered to get more colour intensity. Hope is the perfect pairing for Rare's Soft Pinch Blush in the shade Happy, another viral best-seller. She's an icon, NARS Afterglow Lip Shine in the shade Orgasm (above) is a makeup legend. The same peachy pink with gold flecks is a pillar shade at NARS, much like Pillow Talk at Charlotte Tilbury. Available in face, eye, and cheek products (most of which are in its Bridal Collection), this high-shine lip gloss is sublime on every skin tone and so chic. Prepare to fall in love. A double-duty lip balm with a high shine, Pat McGrath Labs Lip Fetish Divinyl Lip Shine comes in six sumptuous shades, and Boudoir Rose above is one of the most popular. Perfect over a bridal rosewood lipstick for all-day comfort or worn by itself for a delicate hint of colour. It does what it says on the tin. Too Faced Lip Injection Plumping Gloss is a great instant plumper for smaller lips. Available in three shades, Tangerine Dream above is a sheer warm coral (above), and the other two are light and medium shades of pink. Comparing lip oils to gloss, this packs more of a punch than just delivering shine; it's proper plumping. She's back! The nourishing, high-shine Chanel Rouge Coco Baume in the shade Pink Delight 928, as worn by Sofia Richie on her wedding day, is back in stock. The warm peachy pink with tiny gold flecks is the perfect bridal gloss balm. Chic and understated, the Chanel balm has a sheen rather than a gloss, and it's perfect for every skin tone. The cult MAC Lipglass started as a solo clear gloss in the 90s, and it has 30+ shades in three finishes: high-gloss, glass-like, or subtle sheen. Many of the shades are nudes to suit different skin tones (like Dreamy, above), but there are also some bold colours. Wear alone or over lip liner or lipstick, but you can layer all three for your bridal beauty look. The last of our lip oils and glosses is this Westman Atelier Squeaky Clean Lip Balm. A clean beauty buy from celebrity MUA Gucci Westman, with six shades, including Chou Chou, above. On-the-go colour, the naturally derived colour pigments are wrapped in a nourishing gel-oil liquid balm that feels weightless on the lips and gives a subtle sheen.
