TikTok beauty guru Mikayla Nogueira Hawken is replacing her lip glosses with Revlon’s Super Lustrous Glimmer Gloss.
After revealing Revlon’s Glimmer Gloss, Nogueira, 26, exclusively spilled the tea to Us Weekly on the product, sharing her true thoughts on the stain. “You heard it here first, the Super Lustrous Glimmer Gloss is the next ‘It Girl’ lip gloss” the makeup artist revealed. “Whether I’m keeping it natural and glowy, or doing full glam, these products elevate every vibe with a little shimmer and shine,” Nogueira gushed. “It’s not sticky or gritty like a lot of other glosses out there; I’m obsessed.”
Revlon’s Glimmer Gloss, which launched on January 6, features 10 shades that are a “total game-changer” according to Nogueira. Her favorite? The Bronze Spark, which she told Us is a “chef’s kiss!”
“I’m totally addicted to the hydrating and nourishing formula, it makes my lips feel so soft and smooth after every use,” Nogueira continued. “I keep one of these lippies in each of my bags [along with the Revlon ColorStay Lip Liner] because I just can’t leave the house without it!”
Nogueira didn’t only gush about the product, but she also gave Us tips on how to use it in our glam routine. “For a night-out look, it’s all about layering that shimmer and shine! My current lip combo is the iconic Super Lustrous Glass Shine Balm in Rum Raisin with the Super Lustrous Glimmer Gloss in Glazed Almond for a juicy, sparkly lip that lasts.”
On makeup-free days, Nogueira puts a touch of Lip Oil on her pout to keep her pout hydrated and shiny.
When it comes to confidence, Nogueira feels her best with black hair and a bit of self-tan. She recently added red highlights to her midnight mane but told Us she’s not planning to experiment with other colors.
“The red highlights did not last very long,” she joked. “I got them for the holidays to spice it up, but for almost 15 years now, I have been dying my hair black. I feel most confident and most like myself with black hair.” Nogueira also noted that she “loves” the contrast between how dark her tresses are and how fair her skin is with her polarizing green eyes.
“I am naturally blonde which is interesting because most people only know me with black hair. I don’t think I will ever go back to my natural hair color,” Nogueira said while chatting with Us. While she hasn’t spotted any gray strands yet, the only way she could see herself changing her hair up is if she goes fully silver.
Nogueira also opened up to Us about what she’s “insecure” about, which is a red lip. “Every time I do a red lip for a video, I take it off right after,” she told Us, noting it would be “majorly” outside of her comfort zone to wear it on a red carpet — even though the guru admitted it would be a “power move.”
“I try so hard to feel confident and comfortable in a red lip, but I haven’t come around yet. I always preferred the focus to be on my eyes and not my lips,” she explained.
When it comes to her everyday routine, Nogueira uses a concealer that’s part of the Glimmer collection, the brand’s Brightening Concealer. “It’s like a cup of coffee for your face,” she quipped. “A little under my eyes goes a long way and it looks like I actually got eight hours of sleep, even if I didn’t.”
Nogueira also recommended the Glimmer Blush Drops to Us as a “dupe for some other high-end products” on the market.”

Something she’s still experimenting with is self-tanner. After joking that getting a bronze at home is not her “area of expertise” because her hands always turn out “awful,” she shared a tip she recently received from a fan.
“I saw a comment that said to do your hands last when you self-tan, let it sit for ten minutes, and wash your hands. It worked really well!” Nogueira told Us. “My hands actually matched the rest of me for once!” Her go-to tanning products include the Tree Hut scrub, Lux Unfiltered Shower Oil and Sol De Janeiro Body Butter.
