Glossier earns praise in reviews for effortless, “no‑makeup makeup” staples—Boy Brow, Cloud Paint, Lash Slick, Stretch Concealer, and the cult Glossier You scent—delivering natural, dewy results and frequent compliments. Reviews also flag weaknesses: very sheer coverage, short wear on some items (mascara, eyeshadows, Cloud Paint for some), packaging flaws (leaky tubes, cracking caps, tiny sizes), inconsistent reformulations (Balm Dotcom, You’s longevity), mixed skincare efficacy, and limited shade range.
AI summary based on Thingtesting reviews
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.
Feedback
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

love glossier and all their products! every time I order I try something new and have never disliked a product. So good for your skin and love all the scents.

Customer service is incredible and very helpful. Always doing whatever they can to make your day better. I love this brand!
I love Glossier's products. I haven't tried all of them, but the gloss is nice.
Love the lip balm! Mango is so tasty you can skip the desserts with that lip balm
It's a real mixed bag with glossier, I remember when they first started out and it was very disruptive. There are definitely some products that are solid: balm dotcom, YOU perfume, boy brow. But now with all these skus the mediocrity has set in and I'm not as impressed anymore. Ultimately, it feels like a marketing company that happens to make beauty and skincare. I'd recommend going in store and feeling things for yourself before buying online. They'll be in Sephora soon so you can try before you buy! Ultimately, I think the glossier girly is a bit of a relic of the past now. Their customer service is fantastic though!

please no more pink plastic bags!!
Highly recommend this product, especially their no-make-up-there makeup products. Easy to throw in your bag and apply on the go. I also love the perfume!

I have tested Glossier and think it's no better than any other drug store or sephore/ulta products. Nothing is stand out to me that I would die for
Feedback
It is inconvenient that isn't sold at a common store and instead has its own stores or have to purchase from its website. Their products are also limited sometimes.

enjoyed their brand idea & original mission from when the company first started i also liked their marketing campaign "boys like glossier too," which was a novel marketing idea at the time. i understand that brands/companies grow and change, and that glossier really started a surge of "minimal makeup/no-makeup makeup" companies, but it has really strayed from what i liked about the company when it first started i originally liked how they would crowd-source ideas for upcoming launches from the <i>Into the Gloss</i> community. although the crowd-sourced ideas might have been just a marketing ploy, it did feel like the community had some say over what products would come next and what the products would be like. the core products that the brand started with were honestly very good, and so were the subsequent products with crowd-sourced ideas. however, once they stopped the crowd-sourcing and expanded into more makeup, the quality & efficacy of the new products really left much to be desired. also honestly the whole packaging aesthetic was really just ripped off of k beauty

bring back crowdsourcing sustainability of packaging efficacy of actual products

I like the idea and positioning of the brand (i.e.,no makeup makeup) but not overly impressed with any product (or their formulas or ingredients) I’ve tried.

I have been a Glossier stan for a long time. Recently some of the releases have been a miss for me, but I stand by some old favorites like the concealer, skin tint, gen G lipstick, boy brow and mascara.
Feedback
New releases should focus on more makeup innovation and less merch/limited editions.
Loyal to their perfume and a few makeup items (balm dot com, blush, highlighter). Some of their skincare products just don't work for me and aren't the "cleanest" ingredient wise if you're worried about that, but for the products I do use, I use them everyday and am always repurchasing.

I've tried a ton of Glossier products. Overall I think they're nice! My brow gel lasted me a while, and the milky jelly cleanser definitely saved my skin. It's inclusive in branding and simple in message. Price points are fairly high though for very small sized products.
Feedback
Don't send me a poster and a fancy box when I make an order. Branding is important, but sustainability is more important, and I definitely don't need a folded up poster of a retouched model's face.
I've only tried a couple of Glossier products but the ones I've used have definitely been worth the money. Most notably, their "You" perfume is 100% worth the money. I have *never* received as many compliments on a perfume as I do when I wear You, even compared to my ridiculously expensive ones. Additionally, I love the packaging of Glossier's products & how they're shipped- their famous pink bubble wrap zippered bag along with the fun stickers.
I’ve been using Glossier products for years now and have tried many more hits than misses. The makeup bag is the best makeup bag I have ever used and by far one of the most useful storage items I own. I have the You perfume in both the liquid spray and the solid compact and it has become my go-to everyday scent. In terms of makeup products, I love and will continue to repurchase the Cloud Paint, Balm Dot Com, Ultralip, & Boy Brow. The only products I’m not crazy about are the Lash Slick mascara & the Solar Paint cream bronzer.

Some products are a hit and miss. My favorites are the You perfume, boy brow, and generation g lipsticks. I use these products on a regular basis. Their complexion products are not my favorite. The skin tint has zero coverage. For someone who has oily skin, the cloud paint and stretch concealer just makes my skin looks horrible throughout the day.

I’ve used various skin care products and I’ve never been very impressed. I prefer other brands that are more accessible.
Feedback
The hydrating mask felt like it dried out my skin and the face wash didn’t make my skin feel clean.
