BEAUTY fans are legging it to get to their nearest Boots store, eager to nab a new dupe that is ‘so much better’ than a celeb-loved lip hydration mask.
So if you’re on a budget but don’t want to scrimp on your beauty routine, then you’ve come to the right place.
Chances are, you will have seen the Laneige lip mask that has taken the world by storm.
The Laneige Lip Sleeping Mask quickly banishes flaky lips and leaves you with a kiss-worthy pout.
The lip saviour has earned cult status on social media and has totted up nearly 500 million views on TikTok alone.
A quick search for the buy will throw up thousands of favourable reviews as content creators pose with the pretty pink tubs.
But if the thought of spending £21 on a pot of lip balm, sends shivers down your spine, then fear not, as Boots has got you covered.
Thanks to the brand new Boots Berry Lip Sleeping Mask, not only will your lips be quick to thank you, but you’ll save yourself cash too.
According to the chain, this berry sleep mask, which looks practically identical to the cult buy from Laneige, ‘encases lips in a moisture-rich shield for deep hydration’.
Not only this, but it also ‘provides a nourishing film overnight for rehydrated lips by morning.’
Boots took to social media to give shoppers a look at the new product, leaving many open-mouthed.
Alongside the short clip, the much-loved chain penned: ‘Can’t stop, won’t stop dropping affordable products.’
Boots also added: ‘Our new berry sleep mask is only £4.50!
‘Coconut oil + shea butter = next-level hydration while you get your beauty sleep’.

Top beauty trends for 2025
Hayley Walker, Beauty Expert at Justmylook spoke exclusively to Fabulous about the big beauty trends for 2025.
Haircare
Hair gloss treatments are a must-have as beauty enthusiasts love the salon-quality shine and enhanced colour delivered by the trending treatment.
Hair glosses are multifunctional as they nourish the hair while offering a vibrant, healthy-looking finish, combining 2025’s core trends. This treatment is perfect for those seeking an affordable, at-home glow-up.
2025 will focus on skin repairing and texture-enhancing treatments.
Skincare
Rejuran treatment, a celebrity-endorsed procedure, will see a rise in demand this year as many seek to enhance the skin’s appearance. The procedure entails injecting polynucleotides derived from salmon DNA to enhance skin texture and elasticity. “Rejuvenation is expected to dominate 2025 skincare trends as many seek to a achieve flawless, youthful complexion.
Skincare routines will also include back-to-basic products for a simplified routine.
Ginseng cleansing oil and panthenol cream are among the trending products for 2025. The cleansing oil is excellent for dissolving makeup and impurities without clogging pores and is enriched with nourishing properties to leave the skin feeling and looking refreshed and radiant.
Makeup
Makeup trends will follow suit to achieve youthful and radiant looks. Under-eye brighteners will be sought-after products for delivering coverage while enhancing natural radiance. This beauty tool will complement natural beauty while improving and brightening dull skin.
Makeup looks will be bigger and bolder in 2025 with cluster lashes expected to surge this year. These lashes bring the glam to glamorous looks as they deliver dramatic volume to enhance everyday or special occasion looks.
Peel-off lip stains circulated the beauty industry in 2024 and are expected to dominate in 2025. The growing popularity of this product is due to its ability to provide long-lasting, transfer-proof colour to lips, enhancing a natural aesthetic. Additionally, cherry-coded aesthetics are expected to be everywhere this year as the deep, rich hue can be achieved using peel-off lip stains or bold lip looks for a dramatic effect.
Nails
2025 will be another year of countless, show-stopping nail trends. Goddess Nails and Aura Nails deserve an honourable mention as these designs channel an ethereal, celestial aesthetic for bold, self-expressing nails.
This affordable buy, which is £16.50 cheaper than the posh version, will help you to pocket pounds, whilst revealing healthy and radiant lips with reduced lines.
If that wasn’t enough, the purse-friendly dupe also comes with a silicone applicator, similar to the viral Laneige buy, to ensure that every part of your lips enjoys nourishment.

Top 3 beauty products every woman should be using
Hayley Walker, Beauty Expert at Justmylook shared the holy-grail products every woman needs to be using.
A cleanser, SPF, and hair oil are must-haves within beauty routines.
A cleanser is crucial for healthy skin as it removes dirt, oil, and other impurities for flawless skin. This skincare step not only cleanses the face and removes dirt, but also prevents breakouts and premature skin ageing, helping you maintain a healthy, youthful, and blemish-free complexion.
The Aveeno Face Calm+ Restore Nourishing Oat Cleanser is a go-to of mine due to its gentle formula that soothes and restores the skin’s appearance and texture.
SPF is non-negotiable and should be in everyone’s daily skincare routine.
Even on cooler, cloudier days, our skin is exposed to the sun’s UV rays which can be harmful to unprotected skin and even lead to damage. These damages include sunburn, pigmentation changes, and wrinkles which can impact the skin’s texture and appearance. In some cases, prolonged exposure to UV rays can cause skin cancer.
Applying SPF daily prevents these damages and protects the skin from harmful rays. I recommend the Beauty Of Joseon Rice & Prebiotic Sunscreen PA++++ SPF50+ for its lightweight, non-clumping texture that absorbs quickly for a natural finish and maximum protection.
Hair oil has many benefits and should be regularly used. This treatment can strengthen and protect the hair from external stressors while improving its appearance and shine. Regularly applying hair oil can also reduce breakage and even encourage hair growth for longer, fuller locks. Hair oils also target the scalp, reducing dandruff and improving its health through exfoliation.
I recommend using this deeply nourishing treatment a couple of times a week or more depending on the hair’s moisture levels. The Hair Syrup Rapunzel Pre-Wash Oil Treatment is a nutrient-rich treatment that revitalises strands to promote a happy scalp and healthy-looking locks. Apply the syrup throughout damp hair before washing; massage from root to tip and allow the formula to penetrate strands before rinsing and styling.
Not only have Boots taken to social media to show off the new dupe, but many beauty fans have been sharing their rave reviews online too.
One content creator named Amelia, who is from Manchester, quickly ran to TikTok to share her thoughts on the lip mask, as she gave her followers a close-up look at the product and beamed: “Love a dupe.”
She also shared: “This is soooo nice and soft.”
To this, one of her followers claimed: “This is so much better than the Laneige one.”
Whilst another admitted: “The Laneige one made my lips CRUSTY, will be buying and trying this ASAP.”
