Laneige is one of the leading Korean beauty brands, which is probably best known for its iconic Lip Sleeping Mask.

Of course, there are plenty of other deeply hydrating skincare products from the label we love, and one that needs to be on your roster is Laneige’s Glaze Craze Tinted Lip Serum.

The Glaze Craze serum has been available to shop across the pond, but it is now available to shop in the UK – at long last!

The highly anticipated Glaze Craze Tinted Lip Serum is more than a triple threat; it hydrates the lips, soothes any dry or chapped lips, adds a pop of colour and a high shine finish too.

The Glaze Craze Tinted Lip Serum is a skincare and make-up hybrid, as it is infused with polypeptides, ceramides, as well as jojoba and pomegranate seed oil for a deep boost of hydration.

Let’s take a closer look at these ingredients. The ceramides work to nourish the lips, soothe dry and chapped lips, restore the skin barrier, as well as lock in moisture. The inclusion of polypeptides plumps and firms the delicate lip area, while also smoothing the lips, while squalane, jojoba and pomegranate oil provide an added boost of hydration.

The oils not only offer a boost of hydration, but are the secret ingredient to ensure the lip serum is lightweight, not sticky or tacky on the lips. Essentially, it’s what makes this a serum rather than a gloss.

But, don’t just take our word for it.Laneige has done the hard work and the clinical studies to prove the method behind the madness. Laneige has found 28% of customers noticed their lips were hydrated, while 39% found their pout was plumper immediately after application. More importantly, 100% of testers felt their lips were instantly hydrated after one wear.

The unique doughnut-shaped applicator is soft and cushioned, which ensures gentle application, and a standout feature in comparison to solid asymmetric heads found in rival lip products.

The Glaze Craze Tinted Lip Serum melts into the lips, and offers a sheer, yet buildable, lip tint that is a subtle alternative to a lipstick.

Laneige’s Glaze Craze comes in four shades, which have been inspired by the mouthwatering glaze on an iced doughnut. From Sugar Glaze, Peach Glaze, Cinnamon Sugar and Chocolate Frosting, there is a shade to suit all make-up looks and skin tones.

With its skincare-first formula, high-impact shine, and irresistibly smooth texture, this glossy, hydrating serum is set to become a beauty bag essential, and one we predict will sell out fast.
