Glossier reviews and discussion

This brand gets all the gold stars in the world for packaging and aesthetic, but their products can be hit or miss. Personal favorites include Boy Brow — a brow pomade in a minuscule container; Generation G — a sweet, nearly-sheer lipstick in a reasonable amount of color options; and the Milky Jelly cleanser — a gentle face wash with a cult following. Some of their standards, like the Balm Dotcom, leave something to be desired. I’ve never really understood what made the viscous, jelly-like product unique as skin salves with more of a pharmaceutical punch sell for much cheaper given the volume.

I think some of their products really stand out (bubble wrap, cloud blush) but other than that, these products can be such a miss. The packaging is alright, and the price is really high for what you get. You definitely pay for the influencer hype.

I used to wear glossier’s products regularly and found them to be sort of hit or miss, but their customer service was always great so I looked past it. Since it came out that there is a culture of anti-Blackness at the company I have stopped purchasing their products and have easily been able to find substitutes.

Meh. More for teenagers, not for 30something skin. But my sister (20s) loves their perfume!

I ordered lots in lockdown - the hand cream was too perfumed for my liking. The cheek tint barely stayed on. Not really sure what the hype was all about

I have been a Glossier fan from day one. I think I've tried 95% of the products (I am READY to try the After Baume - next order!), and have given Glossier gifts to a ton of friends over the years. But I'm not going to say that every product is a re-buy! The things I love the most and re-buy whenever I run out: - Milky Oil Makeup Remover: I literally have never found anything as effective and non-greasy as this. My friends request this when they sleep over. - All of the Serums: I've bought dupes of these that are tacky or ineffective. These feel so high-end and I see the results the following day every time. - Ultralip: THIS IS MAGIC. I literally want every color. When I go to a party and pull this out, three of my friends pull out their favorite shades. It's hydrating and feels like chapstick but looks gorgeous in every shade.

Glossier does the no makeup look really well. They have a lot of stand out products, I really like boy brow and cloud paint. They're overall packaging and design is really nice too coming from a graphic design standpoint. I like the foundation on days where I just have a little redness and really good skin day, but it barely does anything, so it won't be the best for those who want coverage.

Love all my Glossier items — boybrow, mascara, balm dot com, and gloss all in regular rotation. Just so sad they got rid of Bubble Wrap (the item, not the packaging)!

Some products aren’t the best quality but depends on what you get! I love the boy brow. Cool packaging and Branding

I’ve tried a handful of things from Glossier and I like them all. The face wash and moisturizer is alright. It didn’t breakout my sensitive skin, but it didn’t seem to do much otherwise. I’ve been using the stretch concealer and tinted moisturizer and have been into it. Both provide very minimal coverage, so it's great if you’re going for more of a natural look.

I love a “no-makeup” makeup look and glossier nails it!! I’ve tried a lot of their products but I will say the cloud paint is my holy grail liquid/cream blush. It is so buildable, great colors and you really get to control where you want it and how much!

I love Glossier’s products but unfortunately I’ve stopped purchasing from them because I’ve recently heard about their toxic work culture. I’ve used the boy brow, the cloud paint cheek tint, the lash slick mascara, and their lip balm. All of these products work really well.

I have majority of Glossier's product line (makeup, skincare, fragrance, body care, merch) and love it the brand overall. Some products are hit or miss for my skin type, but that is expected. They make my favorite blush I've been using for over 4 years and perfume that I rebuy as soon as I'm out. I recommend people try different things and find their favorites.

Think these products are over priced for what they are. They have a cult like following, fun cute packaging, and fun store experience, but the products are honestly pretty meh. The balm.com is just a marked up vaseline. I will say, I like some of their makeup items like their lidstar, but otherwise, think there’s better, more affordable products on the market.

Glossier is my go-to. My daily roundup: boy brow, cloud paint, stretch concealer, haloscope, lash stick, and lidstar. Love the lightweight feel and fun pink packaging. I definitely miss the in-store shopping experience...

Every single product isn’t a winner (I’m looking at you future dew oil) But all the basics, the serums, concealer, matte lip tints I love. The matte lip tint is my all time favorite natural look. The packaging is obviously really nice, love the packaging they use to ship too, I always keep the lil pouches.

I like the Glossier products, especially the Boy Brow and Futuredew. I wish they sold on other sites for ease of purchase, but I also get why they don't.

The in person experience at the popup in Boston was a good experience. The popup was aesthetically pleasing and customer service reps were really helpful. I picked up their original balm dotcom which i've tried before and also Lidstar in Moon. The balm is really hydrating and I would purchase again. The Lidstar didn't have great coverage and felt kind of tacky - i wouldn't repurchase.

Love their liquid eyeshadow and blush. Not a huge fan of their cleanser which is supposed to be super popular. It felt heavy and didn't pair well with my skin type. I usually use a similar whip cleanser from Japan and when I ran out, I tried Glossier's cleanser to see if it could replace it.

I love Glossier. I am 100% a makeup minimalist, partially because it was always intimidating to learn how to properly apply it. Glossier has made it feel much less intimidating while helping me still feel like me. The customer service is also great. Any time a product hasn't worked for me, the team has been super responsive.
