Glossier reviews and discussion

Reviews mention

  • Compliment-magnet signature fragrance
  • Seamless, buildable cream blush
  • Natural, defining brow gel
  • Gentle, lightweight cleanser
  • Inconsistent shade inclusivity
  • Sheer, short-lasting formulas
  • Fragile, leaky packaging
  • Variable scent longevity

Glossier earns praise in reviews for effortless, no‑makeup makeup staples like Boy Brow, Cloud Paint, Lash Slick, and the universally complimented Glossier You fragrance, which many call a signature scent. However, reviewers flag inconsistent makeup payoff and longevity, polarizing skincare efficacy, packaging flaws (leaking body oil, cracking lipstick caps, messy Cloud Paint tubes), reformulation disappointments (Balm Dotcom, You perfume), limited shade range, and some products feeling sheer, basic, or short‑lasting.

  • Boy brow is a yes, but feels like there's a lot of similar lower priced dupes or equivalents.

  • Used to really love their products when they first came out but now it seems that their products aren’t really performing as well. Even though glossier arguably started the whole “clean girl” “no makeup-makeup look”, I think right now there are other brands doing it better (with actual skincare based formulas) and cleaner.

  • The lip balms have been the only ones I've used ever since I bought them!

  • I love this brand! My skin has never felt so calm since I started using this skin care line

  • Glossier milk jelly cleanser is one of the best products I have ever used. I love how it smells, how gentle it is on your skin and the feeling after. I am also a fan of other glossier lip products like the generation g, ultra lip and balm dotcom. They are cult favourites for a reason and I highly recommend.

  • I’ve only tried a few things from this brand, but the top product I enjoy is their their “Glossier You” fragrance. It’s so unique, sophisticated and addicting. The skincare is also very luxurious and leaves your skin feeling and looking smoother and more radiant.

  • The boy brow is probably their best product and has been consistently amazing. Their blushes are great as well (a little goes a long way) and their mascara is really nice and does not clump! I do think they reformulated their Glossier You scent and I wish they hadn't!

  • While I know they have some hit or miss products, I have personally one had great experiences with the products I have. I absolutely love their highlighter stick, as well their balm domcoms. Yet to me, the real star of the show has been their stretch concealer. It lasts practically all day, yet it doesn't feel too heavy and break me out. To me, it has been the best product I've used so far to help conceal my acne without irritating too much. In addition to my great experience with the product, I absolutely love their branding. I mean a free ticket and cute pouch? Say less.

  • I had recieved a gift over a year ago but due to a break I hadn't used it. I procrastinated approaching Glossier however when I finally discussed it with them they provided me a replacement free of charge. Their customer services where quick, efficient and kind.

  • Glossier was the first "brand-y" brand I ever really bought into. In college I was soooo hard into it and got like every drop. Now I love them for their strengths (boy brow, skin tint, You perfume) and feel like I can see through their more gimmicky stuff (RIP the whole glossier play line). She's a classic in her own way.

  • Glossier has earned every one of its 5 stars in my book. Their products have revolutionized my beauty routine. With a commitment to quality and a less-is-more philosophy, Glossier enhances natural beauty like no other. The skincare range leaves my skin glowing and refreshed, while the makeup products provide a polished yet authentic look. The minimalist packaging is a delight, and their dedication to diversity is commendable. Glossier is a game-changer that deserves a permanent place in your routine.

  • I really like Futuredew, it's kind of like an all in one skincare routine. Balm dot com has also become an essential for me. I have the birthday cake one - i love the subtle sparkle and it keeps my lips moisturized.

  • i love their lip / blush stains ! i like when i can have versatile makeup and that’s exactly what they are!

  • I have enjoyed using ever single product I’ve purchased from Glossier and their customer service is unmatched. They are definitely for someone looking for a more natural look but I think they have a wide range of products that anyone into beauty and skincare would like.

  • I love glossier products! I really love the packaging and makes me feel so girly 💓💗💘 I also appreciate how the products feel very authentic.

  • The solid perfume smells AMAZING! I love the aesthetic of this line. The products look so pretty.

  • I absolutely love glossier and this is a company I hope to work with in the future. If there’s one thing I’m not leaving the house without, it’s my glossier birthday cake lip gloss. Leaves me feeling refreshed and accessories my simple makeup perfectly

  • The brow gel is worth the hype! I have dark brown/black eyebrows and use a shade lower for a softer look. Lasts all day.
