Confession: I’ve slowly converted into a full-fledge Glossier user ever since I received my first order last March. About 75% of my skincare and make up routine consists of Glossier, which I can say I’ve been consistently happy with. Here are my top 5 favourite products that I can’t live without.
1. Boy Brow
This superstar product is a compact gel brush that keeps your eyebrows in place. The wand is extra small and lets you get real precise with your brows. They offer this one in a variety of shades, but I opt for the clear gel since my brows are so light and I prefer to fill them in with a pencil.
2. Cloud Paint
Blush used to be my favourite thing — I would try out all different shades and textures (powder or stain — how do you decide?) and experiment with brands just for fun. Since picking up my first Cloud Paint in Puff (sheer light pink), I can safely say this is my everyday colour that I cannot live without. I also caved and picked up the other shades (Beam, Haze and Dusk) and love experimenting with them. Dusk is a slightly darker and can be used for more of a contoured look, while Beam is a brighter orange that adds a bit of liveliness (for lack of a better word) to your face. They are all made with a super lightweight gel formula that’s extremely easy to apply with your fingers. I also like to use my Beauty Blender after to blend the colour seamlessly.
3. Milky Jelly
This cleanser is very lightweight and can mislead people if you don’t know how to use it properly. To get the full benefits from this product, I like to blend and really massage the product into my face. It’s made with rose water so it has a nice spa-like smell to it that really gets you in the mood. This formula is apparently PH-balanced so it doesn’t leave your skin feeling tight afterwards, which is something I really like and have never been able to find with another cleanser.
4. Priming Moisturizer Rich
This luxe moisturizer smells amazing and has a thick, rich feel to it. For those who don’t have dry skin, that description might freak you out, but lucky for you, this formula sinks right in. I don’t go too heavy handed here, because who knows what will happen, so when 3pm rolls around, I’m not left with that dreaded oily sheen some thick moisturizers leave behind. I use this moisturizer year-round, but sometimes switch to the lighter original formula in the thick of summer if I feel my skin is veering on the side of too oily from the heat.
5. Invisible Shield SPF 35
I love this product! It’s not available in Canada, so be sure to order it to Point Roberts using one of the delivery package systems because everyone needs this product in their lives. As we all know, we should be applying sunscreen every day in order to fight off wrinkles and stop the aging effect our beautiful little faces! This product beats out any other face SPF I’ve used because it’s formulated in a clear gel texture that doesn’t leave a creepy white sheen on your face. It’s also hella lightweight — apply it over your moisturizer and give it 30 seconds to sink in. You won’t notice it, but your skin will sure thank you later.
