MAC Lustreglass Sheer-Shine Lipstick is Back and Better Than Ever?

I receive a small commission if you shop through my link.

As you know MAC Lustre Lipstick was discontinued and replaced with a new MAC Lustreglass Sheer-Shine Lipstick. I happen be the only person in the known makeup universe that liked the lustre finish. Oh my god nooooooooooooo! Really!? BUT WHYYYYYYYY!

No but seriously, I never had beef with Lustre Lipsticks. I thought they had a rather nice balm-y finish that felt rather nice on my drier lips.

The new Lustreglass Sheer-Shine Lipstick replaces that old formula and apparently it’s better than ever before and hey, maybe that means I can tempted you over to the dark side to try these out. I haven’t tried the new formula yet but I have some winging there way to me from Nordstrom.com that I ordered.

The new formula contains a ton of oils including jojoba, raspberry seed, virgin, and coconut. They also contain hyaluronic acid as well as shea butter. The new formula is lightweight with a shiny finish and a moisturizing consistency.

MAC launched these in twenty shades and they are $21 with free shipping at Nordstrom. I grabbed up the shades Business Casual and Flustered. I have a feeling I’m going to love these as much as I did the old formula.

Are you intrigued by the new MAC Lustreglass Sheer-Shine Lipstick?

About the Muse

Isabella MuseIsabella is just an average everyday geeky girl who doesn’t blend her eyeshadow correctly, wears too much blush, and hopes she never finds her holy grail products because she likes the thrill of the chase so much. Her mission is to bring you super honest reviews on makeup, skincare, fragrance and all things beauty. She’s in no way an expert on the topic and she sure as hell isn’t a super model. But she’s passionate about makeup and is seeking like-minded individuals that like pina coladas, getting caught in the rain, and ones that enjoy spending hundreds of dollars at Sephora without feeling buyer’s remorse.

    I LOVE Lustre lipsticks!! My favorites are: High Tea, Syrup, Sweetie and Viva Glam V. I know they discontinued High Tea and Viva Glam V. I have NO idea why they did though. 🙁 🙁 🙁

    I want to try the new lipsticks.

    • Isabella Muse

      I love high tea! That’s such a great shade! I think they diced all of them for this new line!

  • Swoozy

    I love semi-sheer formulas and these are right up my alley – except for the jojoba, which I am hugely allergic to and can’t put on my face lest I look like I had lip fillers gone awry.

    The Lustre finish was my favorite too. I don’t like a really heavy opaque lipstick and these had color but were nice on my dry lips. I’ll be interested to hear what you think of these before I order any. They sound good. I do like that there are some new colors because it seems like all Mac does anymore is matte.

    • Isabella Muse

      I’m sort of hoping these are just as good if not better than the original!

    I used to love MAC’s lustre lipstick in Sophisto. It’s been discontinued for years but it was my go-to lipstick.

    • Isabella Muse

      aw sorry your shade got diced! Hopefully they’ll have a similar shade in this round?!

    • MissDune

      Sophisto was my go-to as well and I’m still grieving. I may need therapy to get over it. MAC has nothing in their line in a nice, every day berry hue any longer. They killed Sequin, they killed Sophisto. While not a berry shade, they killed Viva Glam V. All my staples. So, alas, for the first time since 1992 (yes, I’m old), MAC is no longer my brand of choice. The colors are just not what they used to be.

        Sophisto was my all time fave and haven’t been able to find a replacement since. Sigh.. Also loved Viva Glam VI. The new line is nice but have not found a shade that I love yet.

  • Lisa Marie

    I loved these too!!!! I was so upset when Viva Glam IV got the ax and I was hoping maybe it would come back with the re-launch. Looking forward to your review, especially since Business Casual is the first shade that caught my eye.

    • Isabella Muse

      Oh my gosh I can’t believe the love for this finish! I thought I was alone! 😀 Business Casual caught mine too immediately!

  • Lily Kelley

    LOVE Luster lipsticks, hope this new formulas is awesome. My favorites were Freckeltone, Hug Me, Jubilee and Viva Glam V

    • Isabella Muse

      Oh my god I love how many people love them! I thought I was alone!

  • Carol Bray

    Yes, I’m there with you. I loved these. Can’t wait to get one or 5. LOL

    • Isabella Muse

      ha! ;-D I’m loving all the love for these! I SWEAR I thought I was alone as everyone always rants the finish to me!

  • Rebecca

    I loved the Lustre lipsticks too especially, Politely Pink and Fresh Brew which I see didn’t make the revamp (WHY?!!?).

    I wonder why MAC named these LUSTREGLASS of all names!? Remember the actual Lustreglass lip glosses they use to make with the brush? Spring Bean, Luminary, Love Nectar, Instant Gold, etc. This would of been the PERFECT time to relaunch those. It really seems like MAC is losing touch with their roots sadly. Like someone new in marketing just reached into their discontinued vault of names and took this one.

  • Eraser

    I always loved the Lustres. See Sheer is one of my all time top lipsticks. My only relatively small gripe was the lasting power, so I’ll be eager to try the new version and see if it improved.

  • Carolyn

    I also loved the old Lustre formula�and, unfortunately, my favorite shade was Midimauve, which seems to be all together�but I�m definitely interested in Hug Me, which is a lovely neutral shade!

    • Isabella Muse

      They are on sale on mac’s website! You might wanna haul some of your favs before they disappear forever 🙁
