The lid has a white “G” logo, and the base contains some information on the product and the brand. Packaging: A small, round glass pot with a mirrored screw lid. The Stretch concealer is a “buildable concealer that covers anything from dark circles to blemishes and redness”. 2) Stretch Concealer, £15 Glossier Stretch Concealer in “G8” and “G9” Rating 8/10 – I do wish it had a teeny tiny bit of more coverage. I will be repurchasing this once I run out! For the nature and amount of product you get (30 mL), I do think it is a little expensive, but I’ve been using it for quite a while now and have only used half the bottle. It also works very well with my oily and acneic skin, which is a plus. I tend to use this product a lot as I just want a little something to make my face look more put-together and fresh. Overall Thoughts: I think this is the perfect product for the “no makeup” makeup days. I do find it creases in some places, such as where my smile lines are, but I blend those out using my finger, and we’re good to go! I did not notice any oxidation throughout the day. As my skin is oily, I set this with some powder, and that makes it last all day. Lasting Power: I find this lasts very well on my skin – definitely better than I thought it would. Twelve shades do not sound like a lot at all, but due to how sheer it is, one particular shade can work for more than one skin tone, which I like. I like to apply this with either a brush, or just use my fingers to blend it out, as this gives me slightly more pigmentation than using a sponge, as I find a sponge just absorbs most of it. Once it’s blended, it leaves my skin looking dewy, and not oily, which is one of the reasons why I really love this product as an everyday base. I have acne scars and pimples, and although the skin tint does not have much coverage, my skin looks much more even once applied. When I first tried it, I thought it wouldn’t work well with my oily skin, but I was wrong! It blends out flawlessly, and it gives my skin a nice blurring effect (which is due to the Diamond Powder in this product). I use the shade “G8”, which I would say is slightly too tan for me, but as it’s so sheer, it blends out beautifully and evenly.įormula and Texture: This product is VERY liquidy and runny. Shades: There are 12 shades available, ranging from “G1”, which is the deepest shade, to “G12”, the lightest shade. Packaging: A clear, plastic bottle which has the infamous “G” logo on, as well as directions of use. Glossier describe this product as a “sheer skin enhancer” which evens out the appearance of the skin to provide a dewy finish. Let’s get started: 1) Perfecting Skin Tint, £20 Glossier Perfecting Skin Tint in “G8” In today’s blog post, I’ll be reviewing some products from Glossier’s makeup range and expressing my views on them. It is from this social media presence that I discovered the brand as a whole and found some of my all-time favourite beauty products. Glossier’s popularity is fueled by its social media presence, particularly Instagram, where customers share photos of their minimalistic, pretty pink, and aesthetically-pleasing products. They started with four core products back in 2014, and now have over 30 skincare, makeup, and body care products available on their site, as well as their stores. She wanted to democratize beauty, and put the customer in control, not beauty experts, and she did this by creating a brand which “create the products you tell us you wish existed”. was founded in 2014 by ‘Into The Gloss’ writer, Emily Weiss. The brand promotes a “your skin but better” ideology, and they do just that with their “barely there” makeup range. Two words come to mind when you first think about the cult brand Glossier – millennial-pink and dewy.Įveryone’s heard about Glossier.
