Hi, it’s no secret that I love Glossier! Natural ‘your skin but better’ kind of makeup is my favourite for every day. Even if I do heavy eye makeup, I always use Glossier products for my base. Since discovering Glossier I have accumulated quite a few of their products, so, today I want to share what my must-haves are and why you might fall in love with them too.
A newer discovery is Generation G, probably the most comfortable-to-wear lipstick ever. It has a balm-like texture and feels on the lips with a sheer bloated colour. I find they last most of the day because of the matte finish. You can totally intensify the colour as you can apply as many layers as you want. Lid stars are also a favourite because they are so easy to use. I just swipe a little on to my lid and blend out with my fingers, they set and stay put all day, even with oily eyelids. I love to use them as a base for eyeshadow (which is amazing!) or use on its own. Makes applying eyeshadow quicker when you’re in a rush. Cloud paint is one of my most used from Glossier. You only need a tiny amount to get a beautiful natural flushed look, that blends into the skin seamlessly. I also like to mix a few shades, and you can build up the colour, and it won’t look overdone.
Holoscope is a makeup game changer, I love a dewy looking highlight. I sometimes find powder highlights too glittery, and they never seem to disappear by the end of the day. Holoscope -I find anyway- looks even better at the end of the day. It melts into the skin and looks like it’s your natural glow rather than a highlighter. I was always on the hunt for the perfect mascara, for me that’s a mascara that doesn’t clump the lashes, lengthens and hold the lashes curl all day. Lash Slick is the ideal mascara that I have re-bought straight away once I run out, I actually have a back-up just in case. This mascara holds a curl, lengthens and makes the lashes a really pretty, soft and fluttery. Not to mention it’s water resistant, but at the end of the day it comes off soooo easily.
Boy Brow is a total game changer for brows. Most of the time I just use this for my eyebrows, they look defined, fluffier and fuller. It comes with a tiny brush making it super easy to apply product where you need it. Brow hairs never feel hard or crispy, but they stay in place all day. I can’t get enough of the Stretch Concealer, you honestly can’t tell that you’re wearing it. It has just enough coverage to even out skin tone and dark circles without looking cakey or overdone. It has a nice dewy glow that doesn’t crease under the eyes, but you will need to use powder if you have oily skin.
