Ahhh so I succumbed and bought a Glossier product,it doesn't help that I read ITG religiously and the GRWM videos on YouTube don't help either. I am officially millennial trash , moving on I really have had the weirdest luck with concealers but that's due to the fact that I inherited my dads hooded/dark/sunken under eyes not exactly a feature I would've chosen had I had the option. So naturally most concealers get swallowed up by my under eyes BUT and this is a huge but I've finally figured the trick to concealing under eyes. Correct,conceal and banana powder it's the only way I can do my under eyes and it really does take practice.
Now glossier's products didn't appeal to me I went back and forth debating on whether I need anything from the website and most the stuff was just regular stuff+had very mixed reviews. Seeing as I have to pay for shipping I really wanted to get something I would use often and that is concealer ! I don't really have the luxury of having bright under eyes so concealer can do wonders for ya girl.
Now the actual concealer itself is described by Glossier as ''A traditional concealer sets to a stiff, flat, dry finish—a dead giveaway that you’re wearing it. Ours is a new type of concealer with elastic micro waxes that move with your face instead of caking on top of it, and nourishing oils that give a dewy, glowing finish. The build able formula covers everything from dark circles to redness and blemishes. In five shades painstakingly developed to enhance, brighten, and—most importantly—completely disappear into the widest range of skin tones.''
Pros-
- Its a very moist concealer which I love so much because a lot of concealers can be very drying under the eyes and with winter fast approaching I can't afford to look like a ghoul.
- It's build-able a lot of base products will often claim they're buildable but tend to fail and your left with caked under eyes. The stretch concealer is build-able in a way that you will get more coverage and little creasing/cake/dry under eyes.
- I hate pot concealers usually but It's a nice kinda round so that I don't dig my whole finger in to the pot.
- easy to travel with ! honestly who has the time to be cleaning concealer stains out their luggage
Cons-
- THE SHADE RANGE, nah but for real what is it with brands and 50 shade of beige you do know the worlds population doesn't come in 5 shades. I know Glossier is a newish brand but considering that they're pro everything they can do a-lot better. I've seen them use many black women in their campaigns but it's not very reflective in their products so please for the love of god EXTEND YA RANGE.
Glossier is available online and now ships to the UK
Let me know what other glossier products I should buy x
