  • Absolutely love the Cloud paint in shade Dusk for my cheeks. It looks great, a little bit brown/pink, not too red underneath, and looks great with my olivey complexion. It really is easy to apply and a little goes a long way, so the tube lasts me forever. My only criticism is that it doesn't last very long - if I put it on in the morning, I have to reapply around lunch time.

  • A Glossier é simplesmente o equilíbrio perfeito entre cuidados com a pele e beleza natural. 💕 Desde que comecei a usar os produtos, minha pele parece mais saudável e com aquele brilho “acordei assim” que a marca promete. O Milky Jelly Cleanser é supergentil e deixa a pele limpa sem ressecar — já virou essencial na minha rotina. O que mais gosto na marca é essa proposta de realçar, não esconder. As fórmulas são leves, o design é lindo e tudo transmite uma vibe de autocuidado sem complicação. ✨ Pra quem ama o visual “sem maquiagem”, mas com pele fresca e luminosa, a Glossier é um caminho sem volta!

  • I love how subtle and clean this fragrance smells. Very appropriate for all seasons. You can dress this fragrance up with a classy outfit or it pairs well with a casual laid-back outfit. You will always receive a compliment!

  • One of my favorite lip products I’ve been using this for years and I like that I can wear it on its own or with gloss. I buy the color “like” most often. My only wish would be that the cap stayed on better, I often find it falls off often in my purse.

  • I love the idea behind cloud paint. I’ve bought it twice. Packaging is cute and it’s easy to find in my drawer or makeup bag. I just wish it were longer lasting. My skin soaks it up. I like the texture and the color.

  • Glossier’s Brow Flick is so convenient! The fine marker tip makes it super easy to fill in gaps and mimic natural hairs. Stays put all day without looking harsh—perfect for quick, everyday brows. The sleek design also makes it super handy when traveling. My only con is that if you are oily, it does disappear throughout the day.

  • My absolute favorite perfume and blush is from Glossier! The "You" perfume is truly one of my essential scents and have had my bottle for such a long time! I've recently tried their liquid blushes and they're quite pigmented but don't last a long time from my experience.

  • Always get soo many compliments when I use/wear these products. especially the glossier you which I made a video about on my tiktok @sapphire4ngel. Amazing! Will keep rebuying these products in the future!

  • The boy brow & Glossier You perfume are my two favorite products. I highly recommend.

    It seems like overall product innovation has fallen flat. I hope to see more products out of Glossier soon.

  • I really like their boy brow product but its small and doesn't last as long as id like it to for the price. Hard for me to justify shipping costs when its the only product of theirs I would buy from their site and they're not in retail places around me.

  • I absolutely love Glossier! Their makeup is so easy to apply and gives a natural, fresh look that lasts all day. The scents are subtle and beautiful. It’s become one of my go-to brands for everyday essentials!

  • Bought the Glossier You perfume and think it’s so cool how it smells so different on everyone. Smelled it on my friend and the profile is super different.

  • I am a lover of the balm dot calm OG and don’t mind the tinted ones, but haven’t fallen in love with any of the other items I’ve tried with the price point.

  • Glossier super dew and their fragrance You are absolutely incredible. Glossier all day!

  • Overall, while their branding is amazing and fun, and their in-person stores are beautiful, the products are so light, minimal, and short lasting that for me it’s not worth the cost. I’ve tried their setting powder, cloud blushes, stretch concealer, lip balms, and tints. I personally seek more coverage and long-lasting staying power and they do not perform in that way. It’s a great brand for the no-makeup makeup look and if you have little to no blemishes, but I need to spot conceal more than these products can deliver. Additionally, their unboxing is indeed fun with the pink bubble pouches and sticker sets, but not enough to justify the prices and ok performance.

  • My 2019 purchase of a glossier blush has lasted until I lost it this month. (Don't keep your cosmetics for that long btw) It lasts a long time and a little goes a long way. Especially good if you are looking for a natural flush on the cheeks. The natural shades dont stand out too much and make you look just a bit more joyful and alive. Five stars for : ⭐Affordability (lasts forever) ⭐Diverse shade range (orange to pink to purple to brown) ⭐Cute packaging ⭐fun in-store experience ⭐good product

  • Really enjoyed using the Invisible Shield sunscreen because it is so lightweight and easy to apply. The gel face cleanser is okay, but it kind of just has this weird slimy feel that I'm not completely sure if my face is clean or not. I'm no skincare expert and am still a newbie, so take my review with a grain of salt.

    Mineral-based sunscreen would be nice and more eco-friendly packaging.

  • Glossier works for young skin! Their boutiques are amazingly fit-out and such a cool experience.

  • I am a Glossier loyalist, I've been using these products for years and they've never let me down. Their lip gloss is my holy grail, and all of their eye products are so beautiful. Using Glossier really showed me how to enhance my own natural beauty and showed me how makeup can be used to elevate rather than disguise.

    Shade range could improve a LOT, as could sustainability. Could also be a bit more innovative with products and be more transparent with market/consumer desires.
