What the gurus are saying

Glossy without the hair-stuck-to-your-lips stickiness is what this lip oil gets credit for, plus a surprising amount of pigment for something so lightweight. The gurus love the shade range, from sheer gel and jelly-clear to a pink beet and a taupe that reads as your lips but better. It feels hydrating and comfortable, and no complaints turned up.

"Merit has a whole line of beautiful lip oils that are hydrating and a range of shades. It's very comfortable on the lips. They look beautiful. I like all of them. I kind of like the jelly or the clearer ones a little bit better. That one is riding around in my backpack, I think, somewhere. But I love the new Merit lip oils."

"I like the lip oil felt like this was really nice this actually has a good amount of pigment in it. [...] It's not sticky it doesn't feel like a lip gloss you know where like your hair is going to get stuck to it or anything. It just feels lightweight but it does deposit a nice amount of pigment."

"The Merit Beauty Tinted Lip Oil in Taupe is pretty much what I've always been searching for, which is that perfect your lips but better but glossy. Our lips are all different shades and this just happens to be the perfect one for me. It's not too light and it's not too dark."
