Laneige Lip Sleeping Mask
โ Goodbye โย LANEIGE Lip Sleeping Mask
I’m definitely saying goodbye to this lip sleeping mask, by the Korean brand, Laneige. I did not feel this was a good buy. First of all, I was hooked because of the pink packaging and even the lip product itself is pink! I just had to have it. Ugh, for $20 plus tax it wasn’t worth it. I’ve had this ‘lip sleeping mask’ for several months now, and the jar is still pretty full, because it’s not an essential product in my beauty routine. But it is Instagram pretty and it does look cute among all my other beauty products.

ย LANEIGE Lip Sleeping Mask Is Overhyped & Gimmicky
This Laneige product has 3k reviews on Sephora’s website and it hasย 120k hearts, seriously. It also won a 2018 GLAMOUR BEAUTY AWARD. I really wanted to love this product. I had huge expectations when I purchased this product and they all turned into disappointments after one single use.
The goopy product smells like strawberries, a very sweet and yummy fragrance. It goes on thick, my lips are left bright and shimmery, and they stay that way for a while. However, after a couple of hours my lips are sticky, flaky and still chapped! It’s not very practical as a ‘lip sleeping mask’ especially if you sleep on your stomach like I do, because it’s doomed to end up on your pillow.
It doesn’t sink in immediately as claimed, it sits on top of your lips for a couple of hours, so a lot of this $20 product will end up on your bedding. Plus, you need to wipe the scooper after every use or else it sits in the plastic pouch, which becomes unsanitary after several uses. Overall, my entire experience with this lip mask was too sticky, goopy, and messy.
Lip Sleeping Mask
Lip Sleeping Mask has a softening balm texture that closely adheres to lips for quick absorption. Enriched with vitamin C and antioxidants, its Berry Mix Complexโข offers a nutritiously sweet and fragrant blend of raspberry, strawberry, cranberry, and blueberry extracts to indulge the senses. Its exclusive Moisture Wrapโข technology boasts hyaluronic acid and minerals to form a protective film over the lips to lock in moisture and active ingredients. A generous layer of this soothing mask at bedtime helps reduce flakiness so you can wake up to lips that feel refreshed, supple, and soft to the touch. – LANEIGE
Basically, all claims made by Laneige about their lip sleeping mask aren’t true in my humble opinion. There are so many affordable lip treatments on the market, find one that works for you and that doesn’t cost so much money. I prefer my Burt’s Bees lip balm that only cost about $4.00.
I’m Done With Laneige Products
What did I learn from this purchase? Well, just because a product is well reviewed and praised by the masses it doesn’t mean that it will work well on me. I thought I was crazy for not liking this Laneige product, but I have read other negative reviews online (not too many, but they are out there) that share the same opinions as my own. Also, beware, if you have sensitive skin there is a fragrance associated with this product and it could irritate your lips.
Unfortunately, with this poor experience I know I will not purchase anything else from the LANEIGE beauty product line as well.
Aside from the fact that I didn’t like the LANEIGE Lip Sleeping Mask it is super adorable though. So pretty and pink and it smells so yummy, it kind of reminded me of something from my childhood. Like, when I used to play with my Strawberry Shortcake doll.
