Reviews mention

  • Plush, hydrating lip mask
  • Lightweight, soothing sleeping mask
  • Glowy, moisturizing cream skin toner
  • Softening, refreshing water bank cream
  • Sticky, messy lip textures
  • Overpowering, sugary fragrance
  • Bulky, wasteful packaging
  • Moisturizer pilling and slow absorption

Laneige earns mixed reviews: its Lip Sleeping Mask and Water Sleeping Mask often deliver plush hydration and softer lips/skin, while several reviewers find the lip balms sticky or drying and some moisturizers pill or absorb slowly. Reviews praise textures, scents, and the Cream Skin/Water Bank lines’ light-but-hydrating feel, yet call out strong fragrances, bulky packaging with wasteful spatulas, and inconsistent results across products—useful if you want targeted hydration but are sensitive to scent or texture.

  • Essentially the best toner I have come across and used on my skin and mind you I’m melanated so i have be careful using different products on my skin and this one clears up my pores and doesn’t clog it up with oil

  • I recently picked up Laneige's new, limited-edition Matcha Bubble Tea lip sleeping mask. The scent is super mild which I like, and the product, while looking green in the pot, applies perfectly clear and sheer on the lips. Not a must-have, but a nice product.

  • I love the evening glosses. They’re cheap, they’re fruity, the packaging is cute. Marketing is cute. For all ages. Many people say leather it on for sleep. Probably yeah. But they’re also pretty cheap. Are there better? Probably.

  • The lip masks are great… everything else feels a bit just eh. Lovely stuff, but nothing that makes me feel like repurchasing or becoming a huge Laniege fan. Their moisturizer is nice as is their toner, but I just can’t bring myself to buy them again.

  • I am pleasantly surprised by the Laneige Bouncy & Firm Plumping Lip Treatment. I found this product to be very hydrating and moisturizing which speaks volumes because my lips are perpetually chapped. I love the packaging and how the applicator is built into the top of this product. I just wish the applicator was built for your lips like a lip gloss wand is. I would recommend this product.

  • So, I like the Lip Masks - the colors, packaging, scents, and glossiness shine are all fun....but in terms of holy grail results, I prefer etude house ginger lip mask. That being said, I still use the Laneige lip masks on occasion, over night or over a drying lipstick as a gloss during the day/evening our. I got the BTS set and I like the peach tea scent but I LOVE the butter scent. It's like movie theatre popcorn and I feel like I'm at a sleepover in my PJs when I have it on. The other moisturizers are good...not my favorites, but food.

  • Damn I love these products. The water bank moisturizer is a perfect weight and texture for me. The smells are nice but not overwhelming or distracting. But Laneige! Please! Your packaging is the worst!! Bulky waste of plastic and the twist bottle (I attached a picture) is so frustrating. You can’t see how much product is in there and the “spout” pops up but is a smaller diameter than the top so it often drips onto the bottle. It’s an odd choice to use extra plastic in this time when conscientious consumers are minimizing waste.

  • I’m only going to give then lip glowy balm a review as this is my favorite product from Laniege. Not a fan of the skincare to be honest. It’s overpriced for what it’s worth and the ingredients.

  • This product has to be one of my absolute favorites! It is the water sleeping mask which is the last thing that I apply to my face for my night skin routine. I leave it on over night and then wash it off, and it leaves my skin feeling so soft and smooth!

  • Laneige lip glosses are my favorite lip glosses currently. They add shine and plump my lips, and I feel like they really do hydrate my lips too. The glosses aren't sticky and come in delicious scents. The packaging is cute and makes application easy.

  • The original pink sleeping mask has been absolutely ubiquitous in the beauty market. It is good, but it's not as good as the hype makes it out to be. The texture and smell are nice and my lips do feel moisturized upon application, but I don't notice any real difference the next morning. Overall, it's fine but nothing special.

  • This sleeping mask is a must-have for waking up with soft, glowing skin. It’s lightweight, super hydrating, and never feels sticky. My skin always looks more refreshed and even in the morning. 🌙💙💙💙💙

  • By now, I’m basically collecting these. They’re ultra-hydrating and have helped plump and repair my lips no matter the season. You just need to adjust the amount depending on dryness or weather. A little goes a long way if you use it right! For me, one lasts a little more than a year using it almost everyday.

  • Been using this eye cream for a bit and honestly, the C-Tango Multivitamin Eye Cream surprised me. 🍊 It’s rich but not heavy, and really helps brighten up tired eyes and smooth fine lines. Only downside? It’s pricey — but a tiny amount goes a long way, so it lasts forever. 👁️✨

  • This lip mask is super nourishing and smells delicious—just like gummy bears! It softens and repairs my lips overnight, leaving them smooth and plump by morning. Perfect for all skin types and a fun twist on a classic favorite. 💜💜💜

  • This is like a toner and moisturizer in one super lightweight but deeply hydrating. It leaves my skin feeling soft, soothed, and plump without any heaviness. Perfect for dry or sensitive skin, especially in minimal routines.

  • Laneige is such an OG brand. My favorite reduce of all time is the cream skin milky toner. I buy the biggest one they sell and use it multiple times a day. It’s such a great way to add hydration whenever you need it and it will never be too heavy.

  • So, about the Sleeping Mask – it didn't quite live up to the hype for me. Despite all the talk, I was hoping for some serious hydration, but it fell short. Instead of giving my lips the TLC they needed, it felt like it missed the mark for a lip mask. Plus, the price? A bit much for what felt like mediocre results.

  • This is some of the best skincare I've used in the past few years. Their lip masks are usually what is raved about, but I'm a huge fan of their actual skincare line. The blue algae toner, essence, serum, moisturizer, and eye cream are all stand alone products that really help my combo skin. My two favorites that I absolutely would rebuy are the eye cream and the Revitalizing Toner Essence. While the essence isn't an absolutely necessary step in a skincare routine, the instant feel of hydration is so refreshing. I know they offer two other toner essences, one that is clarifying but I can't remember what the other one is specifically for. The viscosity of the toner is almost like the feel of an aloe juice, if that makes sense. It's more silky and thicker than most other toners I've used. I like the hydrating toner from Fenty and find that both are comparable to each other. Definitely a component in my skincare routine that I won't skip even though it's not considered a must have, but more of a luxury. The other product that feels amazing and is also extremely hydrating is the eye cream. It's not heavy at all. A little bit goes a very long way. It's a silky gel cream product that can be used under makeup. Not many eye creams are light enough to use during a daytime skin routine. I like K Beauty and I do like trying new products. I bought Laniege products from Marshalls last year and that was my introduction to the brand. During the Sephora VIB sale, I went into the store to get some things and there was an SA that had me try a few of the products in the store. I was seriously sold based on that brief experience. I'm attaching pictures of the products so you can see that I definitely am using the products. I don't write reviews just to write them. I do write them to inform others so they have information to make educated decisions regarding if products are worth their time and money. Even though I have multiple products in their skincare line, I'm focusing on the two products that I would absolutely keep in my routine. I think the other products are good. Do I think I have products that are equal to or better for my skin needs? Yes. I think there are other products I would reach for more, but the toner essence and the gel cream are products that have now become must haves in my routine.

  • I seriously can’t live without my Laneige Lip Sleeping Mask — it’s become a nightly (and sometimes daily) must-have. The texture is rich and cushiony without feeling sticky, and it stays on all night, so I wake up with incredibly soft, hydrated lips every time.
