As much as we love a good matte lip, we can't wait to embrace shinier pouts for Spring. There's nothing quite as glamorous as a plump and glossy lacquered lip. Luckily, the sticky glosses that were huge in the early 2000s have been replaced by much more modern and comfortable formulas. Today's glosses have a mirror-like finish with just the right amount of tackiness to make them long-wearing yet comfortable.

I scoured the Sephora Beauty Insider Community for suggestions on the best glosses and added a few of my new favorites. Read on to discover the glosses you should try in metallic, cream, and holographic finishes.
