Clarins' Lip Comfort Oil Turns 10 - Men's Folio

Clarins’ Lip Comfort Oil Turns 10

A pioneer skincare-imbued beauty holy grail that continues to captivate with colour, care, and innovation.

Nowadays, it may seem ordinary for high performance makeup to come with advanced skincare benefits. But this was not always the case. We have to thank various pioneer products for kickstarting this merger movement, and the Clarins Lip Comfort Oil is one of them — which celebrates its 10th year anniversary today.

Since the Clarins Lip Comfort Oil debuted 10 years ago, the lip care product has been a go-to beauty staple that promises and delivers vibrant colour, lasting comfort and deep hydration — powering through years of changing makeup trends and prevailing. This groundbreaking formula, made in France, quickly became a cult favourite thanks to its luminous shine and exceptional sensorial texture. Coming from a brand that is also recognised for its expertise in plant-based beauty — using essential oils and plant extracts to innovate products that deliver results that nourish both skin and mind — the Lip Comfort Oil was also loved for its high concentration of nourishing plant oils. To be specific, it contains 90% ingredients of natural origin and 98% skincare formula, its signature sensorial texture enriched with a potent blend of Hazelnut Oil to help prevent dehydration, Organic Jojoba Oil for deep nourishment, and Organic Sweetbriar Rose Oil to provide lasting comfort; a decade later, the Lip Comfort Oil continues to captivate with colour, care, and innovation.

Today, the range includes 10 shades: Honey, Raspberry, Cherry, Pitaya, Apricot, Strawberry, Chocolate, Plum, Fuchsia and Fig, with this anniversary’s exclusive limited edition being a new limited-edition shade: Iconic Red, No. 54. A bold reinterpretation of the brand’s signature colour and a tribute to its founding date, the shade even appears lacquered on the cap — completing a striking all-rouge look.

With a texture and application suited to every beauty preference, the Lip Comfort Oil can be used as a base to prepare lips for makeup, worn alone for a natural look, layered as a topcoat over a lip stain to add shine, or applied at night, particularly in Shade 01 Honey, as an intensive overnight mask to restore softness and fullness. This multi-purpose approach highlights the product’s ongoing evolution and enduring appeal.

As a part of the 10th Anniversary, purchase any two lip products, including the Lip Comfort Oil, to receive a limited-edition Lip Oil plushie, while stocks last, available online, and in Clarins Boutiques and department stores from 1st August 2025.
