Laneige Lip Sleeping Mask is a leave-on overnight lip treatment in a 20 g pot, built on emollient esters, waxes, shea and murumuru butters and a Berry Fruit Complex with vitamin C. Laneige reports 12-hour hydration and 94% less flaky lips in its own testing, and creators consistently describe softer, smoother lips by morning. It comes in a long list of flavored versions. The main caveats are added fragrance and colorants that can bother sensitive lips, and a price well above basic ointments.

Best for

Dry, flaky lips overnight
People who enjoy scented, sensorial lip care
Prepping lips before lipstick

How it scored

The breakdown.

Five factors, weighted for formulas. Here’s our working.

7.9Good

Beauty score out of 10. Brands can’t pay for placement — ever.

Results30%8.1
Creator try-ons and a dermatologist review report noticeably softer, less flaky lips by morning, in line with the brand's 12-hour hydration and flakiness claims.
Formula & ingredients20%7.2
An effective occlusive blend of esters, waxes and plant butters; added fragrance and colorants raise the irritation risk for sensitive lips, and one creator documented an allergic reaction.
Texture & experience15%8.2
Testers praise its smooth, non-sticky, spreadable texture and scent; the pot-and-spatula format is less convenient than a tube.
Value20%7.3
$24 for 20 g is mid-range for a lip treatment, while plain lip ointments deliver similar occlusion for far less.
Community love15%8.9
The category-defining viral lip mask, with Laneige citing four straight years as the top US prestige lip treatment brand and a huge creator following.

Live That Glow

A genuinely effective overnight lip treatment that left Philippa’s lips noticeably smoother and better hydrated. It isn’t a miracle fix for chronically dry lips, but for softness, moisture and sheer enjoyment, it lives up to much of the hype.

And as far as lip treatments, I love the Laneige lip mask. I glob it on before I go to bed and my lips feel great in the morning.

Laneige lip sleeping mask. Use as regular lip balm. It’s a miracle.

I feel like their lip masks are gabbed about all the time and, sure, those are nice, if a bit unremarkable.

FAQ

Good questions.

Can I use Laneige Lip Sleeping Mask during the day?

Yes. Laneige says a thin layer can be used in the morning or during the day for hydration and as a smoothing base before lip color, though it is designed mainly as an overnight mask.

Is the Lip Sleeping Mask fragrance-free?

No. The ingredient list includes fragrance/parfum and colorants, so people with fragrance-sensitive or allergy-prone lips should patch test first.

How big is the jar and how long does it last?

The standard jar holds 0.7 oz (20 g) and comes with a small spatula. Laneige directs a generous layer before bed, so how long a jar lasts depends on how much is applied.

Which flavor is the original?

Berry is labeled as the original on Laneige's US site; the ingredient lists for flavors such as Vanilla and Sweet Candy show a very similar base with different flavoring and colorants.
