What the gurus are saying

This oil delivers visible smoothing of fine lines around the lips when used overnight, with gurus reporting softer, more hydrated lips after regular application. Both experts incorporated it into their nighttime routine, layering it over lips after gentle exfoliation or on a cotton pad, and found it became a go-to favorite for daily hydration as well as addressing creases.

"One of my favorite finds recently has been the City Lips Effortless Lips Night Oil. As you can see, I've almost finished. I've gone through two of these. It's their plumping oil. Love this for night time. You can use it during the day, but I find it works better overnight. It just sinks into the lip area. Is absolutely gorgeous. They have two new launches in this line, the pink champagne and sangria, which I'm just getting ready to open and try. I try to use my lip oils at night. And I also find that an oil at night is more penetrating and hydrating, whereas a lip gloss, a lip plumping gloss is a little bit better solution for the daytime."

"I'm really loving this lip conditioner, City Lips Effortless Lips Night Oil. I put this lip oil on, took a little scrubber scrubbing my lips and then I slept. I put this on a cotton pad and slept with it."

What the evidence says.

Independent of what the gurus think, this is what the published research supports about the main active ingredients here.

Humectants and emollients

Ingredients like these draw water into the surface layers and slow how fast it leaves. The evidence is for comfort, softness and hydration rather than for changing the structure of the skin.

Peptides

Peptides are short protein fragments meant to signal repair. The evidence for them is thinner than for retinoids or vitamin C, and it varies a lot by the specific peptide, so the category is more promising than proven.

Vitamin E

Vitamin E is an antioxidant, and it is often in a formula to keep the other ingredients stable rather than as the active itself. It pairs well with vitamin C, though on its own the evidence for visible change is limited.
