We spend so much time thinking about skincare—cleansing, exfoliating, moisturizing—but what about your lips? Between sun exposure, dehydration, and drying lip products, it’s easy to forget that your lips deserve just as much love.
If you’ve been wondering how to use a lip mask, or where it fits into your routine, we’ve got you. Let’s talk about what a lip mask actually does, when to use it, and why it’s the final glow-up step your nighttime routine’s been missing.
What Is a Lip Mask, and Why Do You Need One?
A lip mask is basically a supercharged balm that works while you sleep to deeply hydrate, smooth, and plump your lips. Unlike regular chapsticks or glosses, lip masks are made to stay on longer and deliver intense moisture—especially overnight when your skin is naturally regenerating.
If you’re dealing with dry lips, flakiness, or just want that soft, plush look, adding a lip mask to your routine is a game-changer.
When Should You Use a Lip Mask?
The best time to use a lip mask? At night, right before bed. Your skin—and lips—do most of their healing while you sleep. So layering on a rich lip mask is the perfect way to wake up with lips that feel (and look) softer, smoother, and more hydrated.
You can also apply it in the morning as a prep step before makeup, especially if you’re planning to wear lipstick or lip liner. But for that deep, lasting hydration, nighttime is key.

How to Use a Lip Mask in Your Night Routine
Let’s set the vibe: soft lighting, your favorite playlist, and a shower that washes the day away. Here’s how to build a night routine that ends with glowing skin and kissably soft lips:
-
Take a warm shower
Use a gentle body scrub like the Honey-Infused Sugar Scrub or Strawberry Kiss Sugar Scrub to exfoliate and prep your skin. This not only keeps your skin smooth—it sets the tone for serious self-care. -
Moisturize head to toe
After you towel dry, layer on your fave body lotion or oil while your skin is still slightly damp to lock in hydration. -
Apply your lip mask
Right before bed, apply a generous layer of the Passionfruit Papaya Lip Mask. This ultra-hydrating formula melts into your lips to smooth away dryness and restore softness while you sleep. -
Wake up with a glow
In the morning, wipe away any excess and get ready for a soft, plump pout that’s ready for gloss, balm, or just showing off naturally.
The Bottom Line
Figuring out how to use a lip mask is simpler than it sounds—it’s all about giving your lips a little extra love at the end of the day. Whether you’re dealing with dryness or just want a juicy, hydrated finish, adding a lip mask to your night routine is a tiny habit that makes a big difference.
