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.

  • Some of Glossier's products appeal to me and I have tried their skin tint and lip balms. I found that the skin tint was pretty greasy, even with my dry leaning skin and the balms almost had a balm-like texture. It definitely tends to be higher in price than the quality that is provided but has a cult-like following that push it no matter what. If you like it go for it but otherwise steer clear.

  • Beautiful packaging on skincare products. Absolutely love the cloud paint, it gives me the perfect glow while also having great color payoff. Also blends like a dream

  • Boy Brow is the best ever of course. Everything else is not good at all. No staying power, low quality. Except boy brow !!

  • I’ve tried a lot from this brand. Whereas I’m not a fan of lash slick, the moisturizers, serums, and boy brow are consistent re-buys!

  • Love the packaging and the fun unboxing element. The mascara is my go-to product. I miss the ‘Play’ products as these were great for events and fun evenings. Fast shipping , always.

  • Have tried the balm dot com. A nice lip balm. There’s better but it’s really nice and the packaging is pretty.

  • Love Glossier’s You perfume! It’s truly the most natural scent and I get asked what I’m wearing every time! :)

  • Nice products, really love the packaging! The only product I did not enjoy was the jelly cleanser, as it did not remove my makeup well enough. The body hero products are awesome!

  • If you want your face to look flawless, this right here is what you need🫶🏽🫶🏽

  • Love using their foundation and fragrance! Foundation is very lightweight but the color still shows, it was exactly what I needed for the summer. Something to give me a tan shade, and light consistency. Fragrance is refreshing and good, I always get compliments for it!

  • OBSESSED with the perfume! literally one of my favorites :) Glossier Perfume is pure enchantment in a bottle.

  • This review is for glossier you the perfume. Is a daily scent, I’m not tired of using it, each day I love it more and more. Is very clean, I love the Iris in this perfume it gives a touch to the whole perfume, and the ambroxan. I love that is everything I wanted to smell every day. Super easy to wear. Would improve the lasting power, but because of the change of some ingredients is not the same long lasting. This is a moderate projection perfume.

  • Love the Glossier You perfume, although I heard the new version isn't as good. I am still using their liquid blush after 4 years, and they are still halfway full! And I didn't like their stretch concealer, didn't do much for my dark circles.

  • Cute packaging. Fav product is cloud paint- love my cream blushes!

  • Was advised by a Sephora lady to get their eyebrow glue or gel. I personally love it. The area where I do not have brows it works as a decent adhesive for my pencil to fill it. My brother apparently uses it and has told our mom about it lol. Idk who told him but 🫶🏾

  • AMAZING skincare. The lidstar eyeshadows, concealer, and lipgloss are my favorites. There is a lot of product in each container, so I think it’s worth the price.

  • I feel like Glossier got me into the makeup and skincare world honestly. Their approach is so gentle, it's like here's what you need, we did all the work already. I've used their facewashes, concealer, and balm dot com for 5 years straight. When was the last time you used a brand for that long??

    Glossier takes feedback so well. If you ever have an issue - EMAIL THEM. They are so helpful.

  • My little secret to success - "Cachet", ultralip- my holy grail lip balm! Not only does it keep my lips perfectly moisturized all day long, but it also gave me the confidence to conquer any challenge that comes my way. It may seem small, but having soft and healthy lips is truly a game-changer.

    A perfect shade enhances your natural beauty. Youll feel confident. It is not always easy to find a shade that suits your skin tone, but when you do, it can make all the difference. This brand is inclusive so the models can be perfect when choosing shades.

  • Products are middle of the road and a little overpriced for what you get. There are a few shining stars however, and the boy brow is probably the top. It gives your brows some color and definition without being sticky or tacky or stiff.

  • Glossier had the best comeback this year. Honestly, the store and customer experiences are worth the wait and worth every penny. Walking into the Glossier store is like walking into alice in wonderland where all of the products are merchandised beautifully and you can see your purchased bag coming down the assembly line. I couldn't help but purchase 6-7 items because of the fun experience I had in the store.

    NO complaints. I love this brand. It'd be amazing if they sold their zip lock packages separately. I know many people use them for travel purposes!
