![]() In fact, the Laura Mercier Oil-Free Tinted Moisturizer has always been my go-to. Full disclosure, I’ve always been a light foundation wearer. I could use it to simply conceal but then build up the coverage so that it acted as a potted tinted concealer. Much like the RMS Beauty Buriti Bronzer, this product served a multipurpose function. The Stretch Concealer, however, changed things. And in the end, I rarely used concealers in my makeup regime. It brightened and covered other troubled spots throughout my face to my amazement.įor me, most concealers were either too thick or completely wrong for my skin tone. It provided just the right amount of coverage for my slightly sallow under eye area. Claims that the product was a “makeup that lets skin look like skin.” So I went out and purchased Glossier Phase 2 Set – which included the Stretch Concealer, Boy Brow and Generation G matte lipstick (both highly touted products). Curious at the effective nature of a concealer which offered all these promises and claims. ![]() But for now, I’ll focus on the concealer. I know a lot of folks will want me to comment on the other products in their growing line. Ok, so to get back to the Glossier Stretch Concealer. Glossier’s business model seems to gravitate to this growing trend of inclusive beauty rather than the traditional exclusiveness that has often plagued the industry.Īnd while their marketing tactics seem to focus on this inclusive beauty trend, how do their products hold up with respect to claims and ingredients?īecause in the end, it’s about how the product performs and what it includes – am I right? ![]() So if you are into makeup even in the slightest – chances are you’ve come across their product line.Īlthough it’s targeted marketing and aesthetic seem to focus primarily on the millennial crowd, this product does have a reach beyond the young set. In the last few years, the Glossier business model and product range have been the most copied beauty company bar none. The second picture i compared the ‘match’ between g5 and medium deep 2 and in the third i compared medium tan 2 with g7 which is also supposed to be a 'match'.Īll problems aside i'm really excited for the new releases :).The Glossier brand needs no introduction. Ive added pictures of what i mean above when comparing shades that are supposed to match up to one another and even though they are the same formula and have the same ingredients list the shades are significantly different. Just looking at the concealer shades specifically, and taking into consideration that the new stretch balm concealer and the old stretch concealer have the EXACT same formula I was so confused when looking at for example a G7 supposedly now being a medium tan 1 and 2 even though they look more like G5 shades, even with the medium tan 1 model specifically being labelled a g5 on their website.Īnother example of this is another model who is pictured using the shade g3 in the stretch concealer is now using a medium deep 2, even though the shade g3 is supposed to match up to the shades deep 1,2 and 3. I just saw that the new shade matching guides have been released and saw that they have matched up each g shade to their new shades that will be released soon.
