Now, let’s talk lipsticks, and not just any lipstick, but about the Revlon Super Lustrous Glass Shine Lipstick. If you like that super-glossy, high-shine look but just can’t stand the stickiness of a typical lip gloss, then this might be right up your alley. Unique for its glass-like finish, this gives instant glamour to any look.
The formula by Revlon is hydrating and glides on with a soft, buttery feeling. Plus, it’s filled with moisturizing goodies such as hyaluronic acid, aloe, and even rose quartz. And the best part? It comes in 25 shades, so you can pick your favorite. Today, though, I’m talking more on Sparkling Honey—a really lovely, neutral shade with a hint of sparkle.
Curious to see if it could be your new favorite lipstick, let’s dive in and see what makes it so special.

First Impressions
First of all: packaging. You know when a lipstick feels good just because of the look of it? That’s what you get here. This sleek, elegant tube of the Super Lustrous Glass Shine Lipstick is so easy to hold and just feels luxurious. I don’t know about you, but packaging can really make or break a lipstick for me. This one has that classic Revlon vibe but with a bit of a modern twist.
Opening it, I immediately was drawn to its creamy appearance and its shining feature. Even without swiping it on, you will see the shine in it. In the tube, Sparkling Honey has this beautiful, soft sparkle to it that’s not too loud, but adds a nice touch. And putting it on? My goodness! The way it glides right on, just like butter, which leads us right into the next part: that shiny finish.
High-Shine Glossy Finish
Now, onto the real star of the show: the shine. If you’re searching for a lipstick that will catch the light in just the right way, this may be it. It’s so shiny, almost like you are wearing a lip gloss without the stickiness of, well, gloss. And Revlon really hit the nail with these high-shine emollients in the formula. They are gorgeously reflected in light, therefore making the lips look fuller and plumped-up.
Putting it on, I just knew it really lit up my whole look. It’s that little pop that really can pull everything together, even on those days when I’m just wearing minimal makeup. You know how some lipsticks just give you that “wow” factor? That’s what this shine does: bold but wearable, which isn’t always easy to find.
And, honestly, it’s perfect for any time of the day-you could do it on a casual morning, or to go out at night, and it would look amazing. It won’t overpower your makeup with the finish but will just add that extra little bit of glam to really complete your look.
Texture and Application
Okay, so we have talked about the shine, but what about the texture? I mean, let’s get real, a lipstick might look amazing, but if it doesn’t feel great, then I just can’t. Thankfully, this one really does feel as amazing as it looks. When Revlon says buttery, they aren’t kidding. This lipstick is so easy to glide on. Almost melting onto your lips, I think it has much to do with the low-melting-point waxes in the formula. You can tell it was meant to be creamy and comfortable.
It’s very smooth, and it also does not take a great deal of effort in achieving an even coat. In one swipe, you get this lovely wash of color, and if you are like me who loves a bit of more intensity, you can just layer it up-but still not feel so heavy. Even after the multiple layers, it is still comfortable and lightweight on the lips.
And if you’re the sort of person who always finds lipsticks drying them out after a while, well, this is a nice change. It does feel hydrating, even slightly cooling, which once more is a plus in case you have dry lips. Really, the creamy balm-like quality of this lipstick makes it a treat for your lips and not just color on them.
Moisturizing Ingredients
Speaking of pampering, let’s get to ingredients. Revlon packed this lipstick with some seriously moisturizing goodies: hyaluronic acid, aloe, and rose quartz. Yes, rose quartz! It’s like a mini spa treatment every time you swipe it onto your lips.
Hyaluronic acid is one of those fave skincare ingredients for hydration, and boy, does it work well in this lipstick to help keep your lips plump and moisturized. Then there’s aloe to add that soothing feel and is great for when you’ve got chapped lips or just need that extra little TLC. And the rose quartz – isn’t that a unique touch? I am not totally sure about how it affects the formula, but knowing it is there makes me feel like I’m adding a little luxury to my routine.
All in all, these ingredients really make wearing this lipstick a treat, especially if you are looking for more than color. This is not just makeup; it is sort of like wearing lipstick, gloss, and balm in one go. And let’s be real, when your lips are happy, you feel a little more put-together.
Color Options and Versatility
But one thing which really makes this lipstick extra appealing is the range of shades. You have plenty of choices in nudes to pinks, reds, browns, and some deep plums. Sparkling Honey is just so versatile. It is neutral but with that little sparkle that gives some dimension without overdoing it.
Sparkling Honey does work for a lot of skin tones, too, which is always great. I feel like it’s that kind of shade you could wear into the office during the day, add a little bit more eye, and head straight into dinner without needing to change your lip color. It’s just so simple but chic, and it really fits in with so many looks.
And, if you like it bolder, then that’s okay too. I could see this lipstick being a staple for any individual that likes to change colors with their mood or by the season. Impressively enough, variety abounds here by Revlon, which means you can always find a shade that just simply feels right on you.

Durability and Wear
Now, speaking of how this lipstick would wear during the day. Since its creamy and shiny, it isn’t going to last very long compared to a matte lipstick. It does wear well, though, without feathering or bleeding, which is a huge plus. It still looks glossy even after a few hours and still feels comfortable.
I noticed that after eating or drinking, you might need a little touch-up, but it’s not one of those lipsticks that just disappears. The colour stays, and with the butter texture, application is super-easy. It doesn’t cake up or feel too heavy, even with multiple layers.
If you are in for a lipstick that is easy to wear, does not require frequent mirror checks, and will not dry your lips, this one is strong in the running. This is not a formula for long wear, but for a glossy lipstick, it did a pretty good job of hanging in there and looking fresh.
