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 love the balm dot Com it helped with my chapped lips almost overnight. Also is a good gloss to use for a night out

  • I have been using the Vitamin c Magnesium Serum as a part of my nightly routine and I have noticed a visible difference in the Texture of my Skin.

  • Although their makeup hasn’t worked for me (combination skin), they redeemed themselves with the You perfume. I started wearing this scent about 6 six years ago and instantly fell in love. I’ve tried countless perfumes with the cetalox molecule to see if there was anything better out there, and that was my bad because I wasted a lot of money to find nothing compares 2 You. I also love their Body Hero oil wash, just wish that was a little cheaper so I could keep it in endless stock at my house.

  • One of my favourite brands. I wear the perfume every day and get so many compliments on it! It's the only perfume I've ever liked and wore. I use many of their products and have never been disappointed.

  • Glossier has good products but there is definitely better out there. This is a brand I loved in early college and the overall tone of their marketing reflects that. I do love their toner and used it religiously for half a year. Overall good but not great!

    Feedback

    Higher quality products. I do love the packaging that priest comes in and the added stickers and bubble packaging are a good touch.

  • amazing company, amazing stores, even better products. amazing support too!

  • Anyone considering Glossier products should recognize that the brand operates on the idea of creating a "no makeup makeup" look. This doesn't mean it's just for people with perfect skin; however, as someone with combination skin and struggles with acne, I can vouch for their products! Their masterful marketing has created cult-classic items like boy brow and Priming Moisturizer - both have been absolute game-changers in my beauty routine. The boy brow is an ultra-flattering addition to any look and lasts all day, while the Priming Moisturizer has been amazing at giving my skin a bit of morning boost when I need it most. If you're considering Glossier, know you won't be disappointed!

  • Always reliably great products! Subtle scents and obviously amazing branding. Cloud paint for life!

  • I have bought multiple lip balms (balm dot com) pre new formula and packaging and I really like them. I do they they are on the expensive side but it’s a quality product with unique flavors and shades. I am excited to try the new packaging!

    Feedback

    Perhaps more reasonably priced or more cost-effective combinations offered?

  • Could never go wrong with glossier, it has been one of my favorite brands for so long. Not only are the products themselves amazing but so is their customer service, I have never had an issue reaching out to their customer service,

    N/a

  • I really like the cheek paint it definitely stands out from other liquid blushes

    Feedback

    The packaging did splurt a lot of product in my hand when I first opened it. Wish it wasn't a tube like that.

  • Fun packaging and branding and love the reusable pink bubble pouch it comes in. Balm.com is a staple for me, but have not repurchased any of the other products. The serum caused me to break out and none of the other products were game changers, really.

    Feedback

    Would love it if the ingredients were cleaner. Too many chemicals, especially for sensitive skin.

  • Bought 4 different lip balms because I need one in every coat I own. They’re bomb! Love the smell, the instant relief of chapped lips.

  • I love most of glossier's product and my store experience, their interiors are so cute and staff are so nice and helpful. I've tried their following products: lipgloss, boy brow, future drew, super bounce serum, Generation G lipstick in Leo, and conclearer.

    Feedback

    Overall, I think their make up is better than their skincare line. The package is nice, however I don't think it's the best quality ingredients and a lot of their skincare items are scented. The future dew serum was great for while, however after some time, it starts to smell bad. I would buy their make up again, especially the Generation G lipstick and lipgloss. The conclearer consistency is fine, however I didn't find it had enough coverage for me.

  • There's just something about Glossier. None of their products are my "must haves" or staples in my routine, but I appreciate each and every one that I've tried. I really like the After Baume, Milky Jelly Cleanser and Balm Dotcom. While I don't always reach for their makeup, I really like the Stretch Concealer, Ultralip, Cloud Paint and Boy Brow. Also, Glossier You is absolutely amazing. I really appreciate that their products aren't wildly overpriced, the elevated packaging and the fun, playful vibes of the brand. Yes, some products are just okay and/or expire very quickly but overall I think it's definitely a brand to try.

    You have to embrace the vibe, otherwise you could be disappointed - especially when it comes to their makeup products.

    Received a free product from Glossier
  • I’ve tried the glossier lipbalms and they’re so hydrating and spreads very smoothly across your lips.

  • The products are easy to use and the packaging is beautiful. I love the range of colors and textures available, and the fact that they are cruelty-free. I specially enjoy their boy brow to date (a staple in my makeup routine.

    Feedback

    I would recomment their makeup more than their skincare as I don´t think they are as powerfull as other alternatives.

  • I bought the whole gamut of cosmetic products (not skincare) and I found they were nothing special. I was enticed by the packaging and the buzz. Many products started to sting my eyes very quickly. The cloud cream blush is patchy and nothing special. The mascara is flaky and lip products are fairly drying. There are better items at Sephora for the same price range.

    Feedback

    There are better products out there.

  • Love the bombdotcoms. Make my lips feel so moisturized and pretty. Comes in a lot of different scents and shades. They go on sheer if they have color but they look so pretty.

    I love the reformulation of the product and the new applicator.
