Glossier earns mixed reviews: the brand excels at effortless “no-makeup makeup” with standouts like Boy Brow, Cloud Paint, Lash Slick, Stretch Concealer, and the Glossier You fragrance, but several users find the skincare average and some makeup too sheer to last. Reviews praise easy, finger-friendly application, flattering shades, and iconic packaging, while noting weaknesses such as reformulations (Balm Dotcom, You), limited coverage and pigment, mascara/brow products drying quickly, packaging flaws, and scent or longevity concerns with You.
AI summary based on Thingtesting reviews
I love Glossier's products. I am a no fuss truly no-makeup makeup girl and this fits the bill. Sometimes I see people discuss no-makeup makeup looks and it involves a full face of foundation, that's not it to me. For me it's a tinted SPF base, blush , lip balm, and eyeliner. I use a cloud paint everyday and if I could only use 1 blush forever it would be that. I have used the milky jelly cleanser and solution and like them both but am trying to buy less plastic overall, so I haven't bought more. The SPF feels amazing, but again plastic. The stretch concealer is great too and I love that it's in a little glass jar, not a plastic tube. The fragrance is also super nice and if you live in Los Angeles, do yourself a favor and shop there in person, truly a wonderful shopping experience and its nice to try on all the colors and products and get a feel if they are for you. If you don't love a dewy blurry look it may not be for you, but it is a great brand.
Are the products anything special? Honestly no. But is the brand and experience awesome? Absolutely yes. Of the lip products and contour I bought, they are nothing special, but the branding and aesthic is so awesome that I would consider buying them again.
Glossier makes for the perfect gift for young women!

Glossier is very hit or miss. Their mission is minimalist products. I disagree with many peoples’ criticism that you need to have perfect skin to use glossier as I myself don’t and I enjoy certain products. I love the idea of lash slick but I found it has no staying power on the lashes. I really loved the shimmer paints for lids. Even though I have pretty oily lids and nothing lasts, I did have a noticeable tint & shimmer all day. Now that it’s in Sephora, try them out in store and see what works for you.
I love everything about this brand. My favorite is the milk cleanser and their paint blushes.
This brand is great for all beauty lovers! Whether you’re new to makeup/skincare or a seasoned MUA, there are products for everyone to love. My personal favorite products would be their perfume: Glossier; YOU and their priming moisturizer. Their price points are sooo great and I would definitely consider the price to be between drugstore and slightly higher end. Would definitely recommend to everyone.
Looks good and feels good. Just does not excite my look after few uses. Definitely can use rainbow colors.
Best scent ever! Skin care was just average for me though.
I've shopped the brand online and at both the original and new location in New York City, which is worth a visit even if you're not a superfan. They nailed overall impression, branding and design.

TLDR: I sometimes feel Glossier is as if Lisa Frank and Estée Lauder got together and adopted a puppy. This is a brand that understands marketing and the *special feeling* one gets buying their products, and their products live up to the hype. They have a nice variety of staples while also experimenting with color and new things, but not doing "all the things" just for the sake of it. Are some products overpriced? Yes. (While I adored the Orange Blossom Neroli candle, it will never be a consistent repurchase at $45, more like a treat-myself moment, if that.) Is the branding addicting? Also yes. Are there higher-quality alternatives for skincare products? Yes, but the Priming Moisturizer, at $24, is one of the best products I've ever used and is a great value, especially considering how little of it you need to use on your face daily. While the Body Hero line is really nice, I would stick with the oil mist, exfoliating bar and cream for the best experience. The daily oil wash doesn't foam up much but does feel lovely on the skin, so if you're not a fan of suds, you might love it. As far as their makeup, I was an early user of the Boy Brow, Perfecting Skin Tint and Stretch Concealer, and would use any of those products again.
Love the products- super simple and great!
I still really like Glossier. While I used to buy everything religiously when it came out, I now only buy certain products frequently. But I think it's a good price point and good quality products. I would recommend Glossier for someone looking for some good quality basic skincare and makeup pieces. The in store shopping experience is also great and recommend trying out their products in Sephora or in their stores!

My favorite is their Glossier You scent, which just came back in rollerball form. It's a good price point and. Their new Deodorant is good but expensive. I really like Cloud Paint and it lasts forever. Not everything is a must-have, but that's ok!
I got their balm and mascara just to try them out last year and it seemed to last a really long time, and not for lack of using them. I still have the mascara, though the balm is just about done. Their products gives a very luxurious feel which I love!!! I’ve heard the face wash is really nice so I do want to try that in the future for when I travel.

Nice shop, lovely products. Definitely recommend.
I swear by their mascara, cloud paint and balm dot com. The pink bags they give you with each purchase is also great as a makeup bag.
Really love Glossier, especially the boy brow, lash stick, and lidstar. I've been consistently buying boy brow and lash stick for years now, easily the most natural looking mascara and tinted brow gels I've found. I like the ethos of their products being good for skin first.

I've really only been a consumer of Glossier for makeup - their skincare products have not intrigued me as much as other skincare brands. I only tried Future Dew and it felt heavy and made me break out a little bit.

Love glossier products! Good quality for that no-makeup makeup look and super cute easy-on-the-eye packaging. My faves are the glossier you fragrance as well as the classic balms (mango girl forever)
The boybrow, mascara, and dew serum are the only thing I use for makeup. My face looks more cohesive, natural-but-better, healthy, than it ever did with a full range of products or more expensive brands. I have repurchased all of these items multiple times.
I've used the core Glossier make-up products on and off for a while, and while they're a good staple (esp cloud paint and bow brow), but there are so many better competitors who care about diversity, sustainability, and innovation.
You're paying for packaging and branding for the most part. There are a few standouts but its mostly drugstore products at high end prices. and even the packaging isn't that great

I love Glossier's products. I haven't tried all of them, but the gloss is nice.
