Revlon Super Lustrous Glass Shine Lipstick Glossed Up Rose

I did not expect to love this so much! Better than many more expensive lip sticks I gave tried. As a frequent lip biter and picker, it is so hard for me to find any lip color products that do not dry my lips out or make my lips look more wrinkled within minutes of wearing. This is truly hydrating (not in the way that it just feels hydrating then makes my lips more dry in the long run like some other products seem to do.) A lot of lip products also cause me irritation and make the skin around my lips red, but this one has safer ingredients and make my lips feel and look nourished with a nice buildable color! It feels like butter! It does not cake or peel, hides the wrinkles in my lips and feels lightweight. I did find it doesn’t stay on long, but unless it’s a matte ... MoreI did not expect to love this so much! Better than many more expensive lip sticks I gave tried.

It feels like butter! It does not cake or peel, hides the wrinkles in my lips and feels lightweight. I did find it doesn’t stay on long, but unless it’s a matte formula, that is usually the case. I also love that I don’t necessarily need a mirror to apply it, It goes on effortlessly and is not messy or leave me anxious that it’s all over my face or smeared off my lip line. I got the color in “On The Mauve” for my light-medium skin tone with neutral undertones. I tend to wear more nude colors on my lips and not extremely vibrant colors that “punch” and I love this shade! The shade options are gorgeous and I feel most of the choices will look great on whatever skin tone and undertones you have. I will absolutely be buying more colors and highly recommend it to those that need the extra hydration with a nice pigmented semi matte color.

A multitasker!

This is a perfect lipstick for those days when you want to slick on just a bit of color with a lot of comfort and moisture! The colors are fairly sheer. You cn also use this lipstick as a gloss over the more fuller coverage classic Super Lustrous lippies. Just make sure to use a brush to apply the SL Glass Shine over the SL classic. This way you control the application and keep the lippies clean. I do not see the SL Gass Shine in Sparlking Quartz. I was so looking forward to buying my 3rd tube b/c I used it as a gloss over any other lippie or as a cushiony lip balm. But, I am glad to see Glosse Up Rose is still available so I can get my 2nd tube:) Thank you Revlon!

Great drugstore option

I have this lipstick in the shade Shameless and it is one of my favorite formulas. It is a creamy lightweight matte with a lot of pigment. In terms of formula, it competes with more high end brands. It most closely resembles (IMO) the bareMinerals BarePro Longwear lipstick formula (in the thin tube). I loved that formula! In terms of the color, I'd describe it as a terracotta nude rose - on my light olive skin it definitely is warm, so I don't like to wear it opaquely, but a light application is beautiful. It's very nuanced for a drugstore shade. I haven't explored any of the other colors, but would love to.

Lovely colors, beautiful application

I noticed many reviews didn’t mention the shade, so I’m adding some info. Formula is like UD Vice Comfort Mattes for me. Show Off has been a revelation for me. I find true reds (Revlon Certainly Red for example) look clownish on my skin and bring out pinkness around my lips and nose and accentuate acne redness. But Show Off is a very wearable muted red on my nc20 nc25 ish skin. (And I am maybe a “dark autumn” if you do that coloring stuff). It’s very wearable and does not pick up my red spots at all. Yay! Insane is amazing. Reminds me of UD and MAC shades, a deep but slightly muted raspberry maybe? Also remarkably wearable. I love Cherries in the Snow in this matte formula. Regular Cherries is a bit too bright on me, and is a bit hard for me to wear. The matte ... MoreI noticed many reviews didn’t mention the shade, so I’m adding some info.

Regular Cherries is a bit too bright on me, and is a bit hard for me to wear. The matte formula mutes the color a bit I think? And it stays in place much better for me. Thus, this is the first time I have been able to successfully wear this classic shade as an all-day lip color! I’m smitten! Shameless is like UD Hideaway and similar shades. Hot Date is bright but fun lilac pink maybe. I have others, but those first three I mentioned are favorites and I have duplicates of each I like them so much. It’s great Revlon made this line, it rivals department store brands formulas.

Perfect Dupe for Chanel Rouge Cocoa Flash ( Shine Lipstick)

I was looking for a lipstick with the shine of a gloss and was introduced to the Chanel one called Chanel Rouge Cocoa Flash. I honestly thought it was a shiny balm because it didn’t have the normal tip of a traditional lipstick and I had been wearing tinted lip balms that were shiny. So I really liked the concept of the ease of a lipstick but shiny and full color like a lip gloss that isn’t really sticky. But the Chanel Rouge Cocoa Flash cost 40.00 each and that is a lot for as much as I use lip products. So I had heard an advertisement about a Revlon Shiny Lipstick and thought , oh ! I should check it out and it should cost less, which would be a big bonus. The one thing I hated about the Chanel one , was their lack of colors. I was always looking for a Mauve color ... MoreI was looking for a lipstick with the shine of a gloss and was introduced to the Chanel one called Chanel Rouge Cocoa Flash.

I was always looking for a Mauve color , and they normally only carry red shades, coral shades, nude shades or a few burgandy shades. Not many pinks or mauves. So I went to my local drugstore and saw this Revlon Shine in the color Glazed Mauve (#7) and thought I would give it a try for only 11.00! And I absolutely LOVE it! Go figure , my first try for a Mauve shade and Bingo , I found the perfect one. I am super happy I heard the advertisement of this product ! PS I bought this on my own and giving a review because I honestly found my new Holy Grail Lip Shine , and for a great price and right around the corner from my house. Also, the Chanel one went up to 42.00 and they never go on sale! Goodbye Chanel ! Hello Revlon !

Revlon Super Lustrous Lipstick Sheer 855 Berry Smoothie

Researched this carefully and expected to love, but on my lips, this is insipid in both colour and texture. It's a mauve rather than a berry on me, and is not especially moisturising or glossy. I have lavender pigmentation at the edge of my lips but pale skin and I need all product including gloss to be capable of defining a soft edge or blending discreetly in a flattering way. I was unexpectedly disappointed by this one, the colour and texture do nothing for me at all. I could live with or indeed embrace a sheer tint of colour but this just doesn't do anything for my lips. For reference, am in early 40s with pale skin, rosacea, grey blue eyes and a thin upper lip, historically I can carry off berry shades but I do have a lot of purple discolouration under my eyes ... MoreResearched this carefully and expected to love, but on my lips, this is insipid in both colour and texture.

For reference, am in early 40s with pale skin, rosacea, grey blue eyes and a thin upper lip, historically I can carry off berry shades but I do have a lot of purple discolouration under my eyes and mauves can make me look slightly like I belong in the morgue. And lipliner does not tend to suit my thing upper lip, however without it I think this mauve actually accentuates my lip pigmentation and the edges look both undefined and unflattering/unhealthy. I can see this working on plumper lips with a different skin tone but I feel like even then you would probably want to use an additional product like lipliner of a pop of gloss to make it work. As for the two stars, there are definitely worse products and the price and delivery time were excellent but I wouldn't have spent the money on this had I been able to see what it looks like on me. It seems Revlon previously made a "lip butter" in this shade and it could be that texture would be far more suitable for my lips and more to my liking.

Super underrated

These are probably the best drugstore matte bullet lipsticks I've tried and I'm pretty sure I've tried most of them at this point. So creamy with like a satin matte finish. No smell or taste like the waxy smell and taste that the Maybelline bullet lipsticks have and they're not drying over the day. These and the Milani Color Fetish Mattes are probably my top drugstore bullet lipsticks, but those unfortunately have an even smaller shade range than these. Like with many matte bullet lipsticks, if you have very dry lips this can emphasize or cling onto dry patches (My MAC lipsticks do this too) but they don't tug and are not hard to spread over the lips and don't feather. I also like the Milani Color Statement mattes but they can tug on the lips if they're not ... MoreThese are probably the best drugstore matte bullet lipsticks I've tried and I'm pretty sure I've tried most of them at this point.

I'd love more brick brown red shades, rosey-brown reds (like NYX exotic), and muted terracotas. If they were to make more of these shades all of my bullet lipsticks would pretty much be from this line. Y'all are sleeping on Revlon bullet lipsticks!

Traditional Oldskool Style Lipstick

This lipstick goes on super smooth and thick. Looks great. Just like the lipstick my mother would wear back in the days. Just like that though it comes off on everything I put my lips on. If I'm out drinking brewskis with my broskis I leave marks on the bottles or out with the gurls having cocktails I leave my lipstick on the glasses. The good news is if u gotta wipe it off quick it comes off easily. The colors don't really match how they read. This was super red and it's not as red as I wanted. Be careful with the color u pick. Test it out. All in all I really like. Gonna wear out with the bro's tonight for beers.

Where the heck can I buy it???

This is basically a lipgloss stick and I freaking love it. I have it in about six shades and wear them often. They are so creamy, pretty opaque, and super moisturizing. This product only has two downsides, one being that it has little longevity, though you don't usually expect that out of a glossy lip product. The second is that it is getting so hard to find!! Please Revlon, do not discontinue this product or get rid of the original shades! It is really a gorgeous product and one I'd love to use for years to come!!

Worth the hype?

This lipstick is literally sold out everywhere! Finally got my hands on it! As you can see, it's a beautiful pink shade with hints of sienna brown in it. The formula is super hydrating and creamy so obviously this will not stay on your lips. One meal and its completely gone. But I am obsessed with the shade. It's such a pop of color on your face, a perfect springtime shade. This shade will compliment pale to wheatish to medium to tan to olive to dusky skin tones. But it's going to wash out deeper skin tones but they will look bomb with a berry or a chocolate lip liner. The price point just doesn't justify the lipstick. Other than that a beautiful springtime shade.
