LANEIGE

Chosen by a dermatologist

LANEIGE is a Korean skincare brand launched by Amorepacific in 1994. The name comes from the French “la neige”, snow, and the brand is built around hydration, which it calls Water Science. It is best known for its overnight Sleeping Masks, above all the Water Sleeping Mask and the Lip Sleeping Mask. Here you can buy LANEIGE in Switzerland, starting with the Lip Sleeping Mask EX Berry.

I picked LANEIGE for its cult lip mask: a rich, balm-like layer for dry, flaky lips overnight.

How to choose

Start with your skin’s main need

  1. Dry, flaky or chapped lips

    Lip Sleeping Mask EX Berry, a rich balm with shea and murumuru butter, as the last step of your evening routine. It contains fragrance and a little alcohol.

  2. Lip care during the day

    You can use the mask as a balm, but it has no sun protection. On sunny days, add a lip product with SPF, such as the SOME BY MI Lip Sun Protector SPF15; for long days outdoors, choose SPF 30 or higher.

There is no vegan claim for the whole brand. Its parent company Amorepacific says it has banned “unnecessary animal testing”, but LANEIGE is not on PETA’s cruelty-free list; PETA lists it as “may not be cruelty-free”.
