Meet Glosswork 4D: Danessa Myricks Beauty’s Clinically Tested Answer to Lip Plumping

08/18/2026

Danessa Myricks Beauty is stepping into lips for the first time, and it’s doing so with receipts. The brand is introducing Glosswork 4D Ultra Shine Plumping Lip Gloss, a clinically tested formula built to plump, hydrate, smooth, and shine, all without the burning sensation that usually comes with plumping products (we love to see it). 

“Like everything we create at Danessa Myricks Beauty, I wanted Glosswork to be truly transformative. For me, every product has to solve a real problem, be efficacious, and deliver results you can actually see and feel. I wanted to challenge myself, as this is our first entry into the lip category. I thought about all the different products people reach for to care for their lips and challenged myself to create one formula that could do it all. It wasn’t enough for it to simply deliver incredible shine. It had to nourish, hydrate, smooth, and give people the plumping effect they’ve been asking for,” Danessa Myricks, Founder and CEO of Danessa Myricks Beauty shares. She adds, “Glosswork is powered by skincare, not a sting. I’m so proud of what we’ve created because Glosswork is the perfect balance of treatment and performance. It truly does it all.”

The Technology Behind It

Glosswork runs on the brand’s proprietary CushionWrap Technology, which includes a peptide-based plumping complex. In clinical testing, lips showed a 29% increase in the appearance of volume after four weeks of consistent use, a 31% reduction in the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, and up to 12 hours of hydration.

The Shades

The collection includes 14 shades meant to work across all skin tones, plus two site exclusives, Strawberry Whip and Golden Hour, available only at DanessaMyricksBeauty.com. Leading the lineup is Abundantly Clear, a crystal-clear universal gloss designed to be layered over any lip look or worn solo. 

How to Use It

  • Apply to clean, bare lips morning and evening as part of a lip care routine
  • Wear alone to plump, hydrate, and enhance natural lip volume
  • Layer over liner, lipstick, or stain for added shine and comfort
  • Apply before bed as an overnight step for softer lips by morning

Glosswork 4D isn’t just chasing shine, it’s backed by clinical numbers and a formula that treats lips like skin. The plumping lip gloss sells for $26.00 and is available for pre-order on DanessaMyricksBeauty.com, hitting Sephora stores nationwide on September 2nd. Time to get your shopping carts ready!
