Because sometimes lip balm just isn’t enough

We don’t care what anyone says, there’s nothing more youthful than a plushy, plump pout.

And while we’re always at it with the lip balm, sometimes our lips need a bit of a recoup.

That’s where lip masks come in.

Richly hydrating and deeply nourishing these masking formulas help to rehabilitate your lipgloss-addicted smackers while you sleep for refreshed, pillowy soft lips come morning.

Here are six lip mask offerings to treat that ol’ kisser of yours.

LANEIGE Lip Sleeping Mask in ‘Berry’

Laneige’s lip masks are notorious for reinvigorating pouts, quite literally, overnight. The K-Beauty brand infuses a blend of berry extracts, antioxidants and hyaluronic acid into the formula to help repair and hydrate lips while you sleep, but you can also wear it as a high-shine lip balm during the day.

Kendall Jenner revealed on VOGUE Germany’s YouTube that she always keeps a pot in her handbag for just that very reason: “It’s really shiny and pretty when you put it on. It also feels really nice so I love having this on me just to put a little shine on.”

Morphe 2 Lippie Lullaby Lip Mask

If the tasty, sweet scent of watermelon and hibiscus flower extract isn’t enough to get you hooked on this stuff, then the replenishing formula will. We’re talking a heady nighttime cocktail of squalane, murumuru butter and shea butter ready to tackle stressed out, dry skin for ultra-kissable lips by breakfast.
