Is this lip oil greasy or sticky?
No. VKC Lip Oil Ultra uses a lightweight Jojoba Oil base that absorbs quickly and does not leave a thick or tacky residue — a common tradeoff with heavier gloss formulas.

VKC Lip Oil Ultra – Cherry: Nourishing Gloss That Plumps & Conditions VKC Lip Oil Ultra in Cherry delivers a high-gloss, plumping finish with a lightweight, non-greasy feel. Formulated with Vitamin E and Jojoba Oil, it hydrates and conditions lips on contact — wear it alone for a natural sheen or layer it over any lipstick to amplify shine and moisture. Cruelty-free and paraben-free, it's nourishing lip care you can feel good about. Key Ingredients & What They Do Jojoba Oil: Mimics the skin's natural sebum; helps seal in moisture without a heavy or sticky residue. Vitamin E (Tocopherol): Antioxidant that supports lip skin barrier repair and soothes dryness. Cherry Flavor/Tint: Delivers a sheer, warm cherry tint with a lightly sweet scent for an effortless everyday look.
Alone: Apply directly to bare lips for a glossy, hydrated finish. Layered: Glide over your favorite lipstick to boost shine and add a plumping effect. As a treatment: Apply before bed as an overnight lip conditioner to wake up to softer lips. Lip Oil vs. Lip Gloss vs. Lip Balm — What's the Difference?
