鞋油是一种消费产品，用于打磨及擦亮皮鞋或皮靴，恢复它们的本来面貌，同时加强其防水能力，因此使用鞋油可延长鞋类的寿命。鞋油通常为蜡糊或膏状，但是也有液体及固体的鞋油。

几百年来，各种不同的物质都曾被用作鞋油，开始时用的是天然物质，例如蜡及牛脂。鞋油的现代配方在二十世纪初开始出现，而很多这些原来的配方到现在还有人使用。现时，鞋油一般由天然及合成材料的混合物加工而成，包括石脑油、松节油、染料及阿拉伯胶，加工过程使用直接的化工过程。绝大部份鞋油都是可燃的，而且带有毒性，误用的话可能会对皮肤造成色斑。鞋油应在空气流通的地方使用，使用时要小心衣物、地毯及家具。

Shoe polish (or boot polish), is a waxy paste, cream, or liquid used to polish, shine, and waterproof leather shoes or boots to extend the footwear's life, and restore, maintain and improve their appearance.

Various substances have been used as shoe polish for hundreds of years, starting with natural substances such as wax and tallow. Modern polish formulas were introduced early in the 20th century and many of those original formulations are still in use today. Today, shoe polish is usually made from a mix of natural and synthetic materials, including naphtha, turpentine, dyes, and gum arabic, using straightforward chemical engineering processes. Shoe polish is usually flammable, can be toxic, and, if misused, can stain skin. It should be used in a well-ventilated area with care taken to protect clothes, carpet and furniture.
