Feeling Glossy!
8 years ago by
I’ve been on a real kick of simplifying my beauty routine.
I finally cleaned out my bathroom and got rid of all of the makeup and cleansers that had been lying around for longer than I can even remember, mostly unused, since – let’s be honest, I can barely get moisturizer and mascara on my face…
So since I’ve cleaned house, I’ve been wanting to try new, simple things that make me look amazeballs. Enter Glossier’s Phase 1 Set. Besides the fact that the packaging is really fun, I love a kit that does everything—in this case cleanses, moisturizes, evens out color and de-chaps.
I’ve been using it for about two weeks and I have to say the Milky Jelly Cleanser is pretty awesome. I was very much on the Bioderma-only bandwagon for a long time because most things are too harsh and make my face freak, but this cleanser really cleans and moisturizes at the same time. My skin feels super soft and fresh after I use it (twice a day), and not stripped and raw.
The moisturizer is also really light which I like and hasn’t made my skin oily or break out. Two thumbs up!
The Perfecting Skin Tint has rotated itself out of my routine—it’s super super light, and while it’s definitely build-able, I’ve been opting for a slightly heavier foundation these days. I think I might bring it back in the summer, once my sun-kissed skin doesn’t need so much help.
And then theres the Balm Dotcom, which has been a lifesaver with the crazy weather we’ve been having that’s chapping my lips beyond belief. It actually makes a difference and keeps my lips soft even when I don’t reapply it every five seconds. Total win and I’m not going anywhere without it.
Glad to be pared down to three products, finally!
I started using Glossier last summer and love it! The quality of their products, packaging and service is so nice and at reasonable prices.
The coconut balm dot com ( my favorite!) smells delicious and is great to use on cuticles too!
i wanna try them too: they sound great! :)

Same for me, I love to simplify and getting rid of harsh ingredients. I read Skin Cleansing on this very topic. What you tried looks cool, I’ll check that!

Thank you – I’ll have to give Glossier a go! My significant other has been looking for a gentle cleanser after he has developed symptoms of rosacea, which we suspect is tied to harsh cleansers (and perhaps a bit too heavy-handed on the whiskey pours!).
I love multi purpose balms for travel. At home I have 4 essential products for face: face wash, toner, day cream and night cream.

LOVE the Balm Dotcom, as does my bf. Get the coconut version ;) Also, I’ve been using their cleanser, and it might be the only cleanser gentle yet effective enough to sway me away from my beloved Cerave. It certainly smells better (hello rosewater!) and I do think it does a good job cleansing, as I haven’t gotten any breakouts lately. I haven’t tried it for removing makeup or in the hot summer months yet, so maybe I’ll want something stronger then, but either this will at the very least be a winter-time staple for me!
