Hi Loves,
I am so excited about this! I have been looking at Glossier for a while now, and I finally got around to making an order. If you haven't heard, Glossier is a makeup brand that is all about enhancing natural features. If you are the type of person that likes to wear a full face, this isn't really for you. However, I don't wear too much makeup, so this is perfect!
**P.S. Stick around for the end for a discount code!**
I purchased 6 items from Glossier, and it really got me an entire collection.
Perfecting Skin Tint in Dark
Boy Brow + Haloscope Duo in Brown/Topaz
Cloud Paint in Dusk
Stretch Concealer in Medium
Balm Dotcom in Rose
Review
Let's start with talking about the Perfecting Skin Tint. First of all, the packaging is adorable. However, out of all my products, this would have to be my least favorite because it really didn't seem to add anything to my face. It was a very liquid-like consistency, and was quite sheer. Glossier doesn't advertise it to be anything but a sheer skin enhancer, but I was expecting it to add a bit more color and coverage.
Next, the Boy Brow. This is my absolute FAVORITE item from the collection. I have been going for the thick, brushed-up brows lately, and this does it perfectly. It fills them in nicely, and creates a messy brow. I love it to pieces and will definitely be re-purchasing when this runs out.
The Haloscope was another interesting purchase. I was expecting it to be more pigmented, like a highlighter. However, it really just adds a bit of dew and gives that wet look. It could also just be that the color I purchased it too similar to skin tone. I don't mind it, so I will keep using it!
The Cloud Paint is what I heard of when I was first introduced to Glossier. It is a cream blush that you can also use for other areas of the face. I have only tried a cream blush once, and it didn't go so well. I wanted to try Glossier's though because I heard so many people raving about it. After using it myself, it is nice, but I need to learn how to properly use it. I typically don't wear blush, and never really did. This gives a nice flush to the cheeks, so I will keep practicing with it.
The Stretch Concealer was something that I had tried once before. My friend had purchased this and I tested it on myself. I actually didn't like it on myself, but it was much too light for my skin tone. I decided to get my skin tone and try it again. I am glad I did because I really like it! When I first opened the box, I thought it would be way too dark for me, but it was the perfect color. It is pretty sheer coverage, but still covers the darkness I have under my eyes and my acne scar. The packaging with this makes it even better.
Lastly, the Balm Dotcom was another product I had heard about when I was learning about Glossier. This is a universal balm that you can apply to really any dry area. So far, I have just used it on my lips, and it's great. It is similar to Vaseline, which is my favorite thing to use on my dry, chapped lips. The scent is also a win. Who doesn't like roses?
Overall, I am very happy with Glossier. I love the packaging, the quality, and the enhancing qualities. As I mentioned earlier, it is perfect for people who don't wear too much makeup, but just want to add a little something. I think that most of the products are worth the money. I will be repurchasing items in the future, and continue to try new things!
