Reviews mention

  • Effortless, natural makeup effect
  • Beloved, compliment‑magnet fragrance
  • Lightweight, comfortable textures
  • Iconic, chic packaging
  • Sheer, low‑coverage bases
  • Inconsistent scent longevity
  • Occasional packaging fragility
  • Sticky gloss, drying lipstick

Glossier impresses in reviews for delivering easy, natural-looking makeup—standouts include Boy Brow, Cloud Paint, Lash Slick, and the much‑praised Glossier You fragrance—while drawing criticism for ultra‑sheer coverage, inconsistent longevity, and packaging flaws. Reviews say the brand is good for “no‑makeup makeup” days and everyday scent, but skincare feels basic and shade range and recent reformulations (You, Balm Dotcom) disappoint some users.

  • I genuinely love this company. I find their products to be a great price point, cute packaging, and good quality. Unfortunately every lipstick I’ve ever had, the top has always cracked and eventually broken before I’ve even used half of the product :( so I hope they can get their packaging tweaked a bit. Other than that- their customer service is awesome. Super responsive and friendly!

  • I love the glossier perfume, hands down get so many compliments when I wear it!

  • I absolutely adore Glossier! Their products are designed so beautifully, and their makeup is stunning. It's definitely low-impact makeup, it's not ULTRA pigmented, or meant for heavy makeup days, but it's so great for a light look. It's so pretty, and everything feels really lovely when you use it. I would definitely rebuy. It is a bit more expensive than a budget makeup line, but definitely worth it.

  • Truly great products. Loving the cloud paint extensions.

  • I've been using various glossier products on and off since 2016. In this time I think the quality of the products has steadily declined, especially in their makeup products. I find them to be patchy, dry up quickly in the tube/packaging, and do not wear very long on my skin. This can be okay for people who want a very faint makeup look, but just doesn't quite work for me anymore. The skin care has never been very effective on my acne-prone sensitive skin, but it may be good for someone who does not have major skin concerns.

  • This scent is so fulfilling. I love the way it creates a uniquely me presence and it's light nature is irresistible. I always get compliments when I'm wearing it!!

  • I have been using Boy Brow for several years now, it truly is the best eyebrow mousse! I have dark blond hair and use the Blonde color. I keep my brows full and natural looking - Boy Brow holds the hair in place, but does not feel crunchy. The tiny brush prevents you from smearing product on your skin. I will note that it comes in a TINY little tube, so I end up using it up in 3-4 months with daily use. I have not had any issues with the product drying up in this time period, but it will dry up around 7-8 months. I use Perfecting Skin Tint in G12 - the second lightest shade. This product is VERY sheer - probably the sheerest tint on the market. I'd only recommend it if you already have very nice skin, and just want the tiniest amount of coverage to even out tone and to leave a natural finish. It feels nice and light on the skin, neither drying or moisturizing. I like the bottle it comes in - very easy to dispense, without dripping out too much product at a time. I do feel like it is very overpriced, but I have not found a good "dupe" for this yet.

  • Love SKIN IS IN. Products feel a little watered down in the past, but appreciate their ever-testing ethos. Boy brown and Brow flick is BIBLE.

  • Eu amei , o visso que deixou é incrível, ótimo produto ,gostaria de comprar mais vezes ❤️

    Friends with Glossier
  • It’s okay! I liked the packaging. The lipglosses quality was ok.

  • Love the cloud paint and a few other products. Not a huge fan of their scent but love how they listen to their community.

  • I love Glossier overall aesthetic and quality of products. I tested their Cloud paint cheek color and love it. Makes for a super elegant and natural look.

  • I love all things Glossier. I just tried the stretch concealer, I was afraid of the word “stretch” but what it does is eliminates lines and lasts all day. Thumbs UP

  • Tried a few things from Glossier but my favorite has to be the stretch concealer. It melts so nicely into the skin but still covers up my eye bags. I like the cloud paint too but it is pigmented, so a little goes a long way.

  • Best skin care I have ever tried, my skin is glowing after using it

  • I have used some of their skincare products, like the milky jelly cleanser, which was gentle to my skin. Not super outstanding, but the packaging is cute and youthful. The other products are not too expensive and seem to be very popular with minimalist beauty advocates. I also like their balm dot com lip gloss, which comes in different scents and tints.

  • lovely branding and excellent customer service!

  • I love the cheek stain and the mascara, but I want to particularly call out the mascara and what has changed in the last year, around the time they launched in Sephora.There is barely any mascara in the tube. I purchased TWO diff tubes both were almost dried out and nothing on the brush. I have seen a lot of mentions about this. It’s a shame. I do hope they realize this and rectify it because I really do like the brand. I know times are tough but it’s cheap to do it so drastically.

  • The Glossier Balm Dotcom is my go-to lip balm. It's the perfect solution for dry lips, leaving them feeling super soft and hydrated. I love the subtle hint of tint it provides, adding a touch of color without being too overpowering. Plus, it's incredibly convenient with its easy-to-use packaging. Definitely a must-have in my beauty routine!

  • This brand really suits my vibe! One of the best brands I've ever used 🩷💅🏼✨
