glisten=to shine with reflected light. For instance; you're looking at a nice car's shiny paint job and the sun produces a 'glisten' from the sun reflecting off the paint and looking extra nice. Girls glisten in the summer heat of day when the sun reflects off their wet faces sometimes and always accompanied with a glow and a nice smile.
