Glossier reviews and discussion

if you get the right product from glossier you’ll use it for the rest of your life. their good products are holy grail level (i’m thinking cloud paint and their perfume as two examples) while some of the other formulas and products fall flat. and any of their shower products with the neroli scent are sooo luxurious. all in all can be hit or miss as a brand but just go in sephora and find the products that work for you!

Excellent products at an affordable price point!

Boy brow is a great product. Very easy to apply, does not smear. I keep a bunch of Balm Dot Coms on hand as little gifts for friends. When I first started using it I thought it was so thick and didn't love it. I made myself finish the tube and now I really like the texture - it feels deeply hydrating.

Love it!

I’ve tried several products from Glossier before and honestly love everything from there, especially the you perfume. I‘ve been wearing this perfume since 2017 (when it launched). I love the smell, and always get so many compliments on it. However, I’m sad that the new formula for this perfume is no longer long lasting.

I was super late to the Glossier train, as I wasn't interested in its initial hype, although I have been to its original NYC store/office and wasn't really that impressed or interested. Since that first visit, I do use a lot of the products and a few have become my HGs, for efficacy and uniqueness. I've used everything from the body products, to skincare and makeup. I would probably rate them 3 stars now since they have reformulated so many great products, some of which I won't buy again (PMR, Milky Jelly cleanser, Gen G), etc. Things I really like include the Body Hero collection, Futuredew (so good to mix with their foundations), the new Stretch foundation, Stretch concealer, and the old liquid tint foundation. The foundations are all very wearable and easy to use for seamless coverage and no fuss. The Ultralip is easy to wear and moisturizing; I prefer the old Gen G formula with the smell, and won't buy it again with the new formulation (it smells like crayon in a bad way, and the product doesn't smooth on the lips the same). The lip gloss is sticky, but moisturizing/stay-put in a northern winter climate. I don't wear a lot of makeup and just want my skin tone to be even and have a bit of a glow. Boy brow is 'ok' too, although I now use a different brand. Glossier You, the perfume is hit or miss - I have the old formula and the new one. I probably wouldn't buy it again since the longevity is so short, but it smells cute for 2 seconds, and why not. I miss the old eye cream (bubble wrap) as well. The Balm dot com reformulation is gross (I don't use it, will never buy it), and I only use the OG formula. The new matte lip product G Suit is ok, and actually comfortable to wear for a more polished look (I got the Cranberry xmas set). Overall I do like many of the products, but I think they can be hit or miss now, since they sell at Sephora/globally, reformulations take place which mess with the formulas that fans know/love. The brand is losing its way, as is inevitable, but, there are still tried-and-true (and new) products that are great. Your mileage may vary, though!

Nice perfume!

Bought several times before but stopped because I started only using products with 100% ratings on SkinSafe dot com. Highly recommend that website if you have super sensitive skin. If they fixed their formulas on the serums, I would buy again if they went to 100.

Mixed feelings. I loved the Ultralip, I absolutely hated the Generation G. It dries my lips out to an almost painful level - never had that with any other brand before. Their branding is cute but the products are a bit hit and miss - and at this pricepoint I'm not willing to test that many more.

I’ve enjoyed everything I’ve tried from this brand and I love the simple, natural aesthetic. It fits how I want to look and feel.

Their balm dotcom is an everyday essential for me. Perfectly hydrating without being greasy or sticky.

used to be a huge glossier fan, recently have found myself only reaching for the perfume, which i absolutely love and don't think i could ever get tired of! i think the rest of the products are on a personal scale but if you are new to glossier, i highly recommend the glossier YOU or the boybrow!

This perfume is WILD to me! Some days I love it, but some days I don’t. It is definitely one of those perfumes that smells different on everybody and I recommend trying it in store before you buy it.

Great products! And, I've had the chance to shop in their store front retail location and it is a really fun experience. I love the minimalist approach to their products!

Been an early adopter of Glossier and have tried a good range of their skincare and make up products. The serums did nothing for my skin...really surprised here. Zero effect! The balm dot com and cheek color work well but everything else felt a bit cheap and did not last long. For the price point, I think you're really paying for brand than you are product.

Cute packaging, captivating marketing, but the products are mostly just fine. There's nothing in the lineup that is particularly outstanding but it's a fun brand!

I've been a Glossier user for about 3 or so years. For reference, I am generally a medium-neutral in most makeup brands, hooded eyelids, and combination skin. Skincare and makeup is very much personal, and Glossier likely will not be able to meet someone's needs with their entire collection - but their populars are definitely popular for a reason - e.g. their liquid blush (cloud paint) and boy brow! Their eyeshadow products and skincare products are passable, and their new formula of their lip balm is also no longer a competitive formula with other lip balms in the market. However - if you get the chance to shop their OG formula - do it! You won't regret stocking up a bit. It will hopefully also put a little bit of pressure to bring the old formula back... :) They do an excellent job in marketing and branding and the use of their products will probably provide you a lovely, mini dose of serotonin.

Really cute packaging, love the mission, and absolutely think their stores are adorable. I go in all the time when walking around in LA to visit friends. The products themselves however don't feel too different to what I'd get at Wal-greens or CVS..

Glossier is one of my favorite makeup brands. I particularly enjoy the packaging used for the products, but the formulas are so good. Particularly, the Balm Dot Com is one of the best balms I have ever used. It is moisturizing and nourishing and I like that you can get different flavors and color tints.

I've gotten a variety of products over the years - cute packaging, super great quality, and beautiful colors.
