Just as a heads up, unlike a lot of Glossier's reformulations Glossier You was re-formulated due to a cosmetic regulations update. The primary ingredient that gave the scent throw and longevity was hydroxyisohexyl 3-cyclohexene carboxaldehyde which is synthetic fragrance which is an extremely common ingredient in cosmetics and unfortunately ins an extremely common cause of allergic reaction. In the last few years EU has increased regulations around it's use including adding an allergen disclosure on products that contain more than 0.5% of the fragrance. Because of this Glossier chose to reformulate You.
Thank you for you explanation! I was wondering why they changed it 😢
Thank goodness, I can finally wear my favorite scent without breaking out in a rash 🎉😅
@@AJB9806don't bother. You can barely smell it anymore
I loved this idea 💕 I think Glossier set the standard for what we now consider “No Makeup Makeup”, but this video brings to light that since their peak, many other brands have come out with similar products, thereby increasing competition and edging Glossier out of the cultural zeitgeist. I have a soft spot for what Glossier brought to the table, but they need to get back at it if they want to recapture the interest of the makeup market.
Bobbi Brown really pioneered no makeup makeup in the 80's, but Glossier reintroduced it for a younger set.
@@malindarayallen That makes sense with the direction Jones Road is taking. I didn’t know that, but like you said, Glossier continued what Bobbi Brown started but for a younger generation that included myself.
@@vidatalab8301 yes. I agree. I think Glossier reintroduced that aesthetic to a younger generation.
💖I think the point you made about Merit taking inspiration from Glossier was interesting. It almost seems to me that Glossier was very much a millennial brand, and as we're getting older, I'm seeing Merit (and other companies) make kind of "grown up" versions of the products we loved from them. I also still absolutely love the Cloud Paints (Beam and Puff are my favorites for spring!), but I've been really disappointed in the new Balm Dot Com formulation. I'm so glad I'd picked up a few extras before the release. Thank you, as always, for your detailed, nuanced reviews- I appreciate how meticulous your comparisons are! 💖
I was just in Sephora today thinking how much I loved Glossier 5 years ago and how the brand I feel the most excited about now is Merit and Saie. Merit especially is the grown up Glossier. I also love Kosas so so so so much but I can no longer justify buying tubes of concealer that go bad in 6 months.
Yeah I wanna try Kosas but I only wear makeup on special occasions like I’d get a handful of uses before it would go bad 😭 it’s already a problem with makeup expiring in 12 months for me
MAC Face and Body is *everything!*
It took me twenty years to try it (dating myself!) because there was always something newer and more exciting to try.
But it's a pretty unique product that will last you through a workout if you want it to.
Same!
uggg. that stuff broke me out horribly, took a couple months for all the tiny bumps to go away.
💖 Thank you for this extensive analysis into Glossier products and their alternatives. I’ve had the sky washes which dried out way too fast, tinted Boy Brow which felt too dry and patchy and the Cloud Paint which I always enjoyed. If I could hug you for turning me onto Merit, I would! I just can’t wear anything other than those lipsticks now. I’m hoping the limited edition red becomes part of their repertoire. I’m ordering the Merit serum today! Love your aesthetic my dear. I’m 65 yo and can relate to your recommendations. You have such a broad appeal! 💖
I too have found myself comparing Glossier to Merit products. I feel like Glossier was marketed for millennials when they were in their early 20’s and Merit is marketing to the same millennials who are approaching or are now in their 30s 😂
Considering the age of merit's founder, it's definitely intentional. Young but more established in life and more willing to spend extra for quality and luxury.
i mean glossier really only started w their forefront marketing in late 2018/2019 so many of those ppl are still in their 20s rn- as a 22 year old who started seeing glossier pop off in 2019
But is their foundation like just make up or plus skincare
The Stretch Concealer is still my HG, but I don't really use concealer to cover hollow undereyes or cover blemishes because those aren't my issues. I use it for redness around my nose and slight darkness on my face without looking too cakey and it's PERFECT for that. Like a sheer, dewy foundation but with slightly more coverage than you'd think.
Future Dew really got me to love something that feels oily but sinks in - I never used such a thick dewy primer before. Glad I got the perfume before the water down. It’s stronger than I thought it would smell.💕
For the stretch concealer I find applying it under the eyes and letting it set for a couple minutes completely changes it for the better and increases the coverage. It stops it creasing completely for me, I set it with a powder puff and it looks flawless
+1 to this 👏🏼 👏🏼
I hope no one is giving you crap for your brows - they're beautiful. They're very Cara Delevingne!
This video is genius- it’s always so tempting to buy when new stuff becomes available/accessible, but there are always alternatives! I already have some of the products you mentioned as alternatives (due to your previous recs) so I’m so glad i watched this before buying 💗💐
Your content is extremely thoughtful and refreshing. I really enjoy that you focus your attention on one idea at a time! Very useful information, as always. 🙏
Man I love glossier so much, but Merit and Saie are killing it too
This is so useful for us in other countries where we can’t access Glossier but have been hearing the hype for years. Thank you ❤️💓
Amanda thank you so incredibly much for all your hard work. Although I'm newer to you/your channel, I appreciate you so so much. The amount of information you manage to pack into a single vid is awe inspiring! 🙌💜💖
💖 I recently bought the insync blush in burnt sugar, and it's so good! The transparency of the formula makes it so easy to blend
I was SO excited when I saw that Glossier was available at Sephora! I really like their boy brow, mascara, and their stretch concealer. Thank you for including other products 💞 great video as always!! :))
i’ve never tried glossier, and i’m SOOOO GLAD that you made this video, but i actually want to try their eyeliners, cloud paints, and their concealer. 💖💖💖
I love your earrings! So cool and unique. I'd purchase them if you were to link them! This is a great video, I've been considering purchasing glossier since they entered sephora, so this video came at the perfect time! I will instead look into your recommendations.
Apparently, Glossier You has been reformulated in order to eliminate lilial from its ingredients… I always hoped to be able to find Glossier You in a store to smell it (I don’t blind buy fragrance), but now that it’s come to Sephora, the original You doesn’t even exist anymore 😭
Can I ask where you found the info about the reformulation?
You really haven’t missed anything with the fragrance. I have it and never use it. It was a blind buy. I wish I had your willpower.😅
@@stephaniec4766IFRA regulations have restricted almost all use of natural ingredients in favor is synthetics
@@brigitte9999 If it's the OG formula and you still have it, I will buy it off you. My favorite scent and it's nothing like it anymore :-(
@@ellissageorge725 I don’t know if it’s original I ordered it off the site a few years ago. It could be 5 or 6 years. I’m trying to remember where I lived.
Glossier really works for me and although there are cheaper options, I’ve snagged some awesome deals at TJ Maxx that make it basically drugstore price and I also stock up on my faves during Black Friday which makes it much more reasonable! When I can get it for a discount I think it’s worth it cause it’s one of those things I know will just work with my skin. Nice to get other similar product recs!
I finally picked up the Stretch Concealer and I haaate it under the eyes because it creases super bad, BUT it's beautiful on the face. A great option for those that don't want to wear foundation but instead spot conceal all over. (I personally prefer the NYX Concealer Serum for under eyes.)
I'm so glad I caught this comment. I considered the stretch concealer for ages but something always held me back. Guess what my fav under eye concealer is!? Yup, nyx bare with me! So good.
sameeeee didnt want to toss it so I used it on my face.
💕absolutely loved the video! I really appreciate all the effort you put in your videos to explain and demonstrate everything!
I'm assuming the Glossier You would be watered down on the website as well; wouldn't make sense for them to have 2 separate formulas
I love Glossier You, but the makeup is just "okay"...I like it, but they've been duped for even cheaper.
Love this video, Amanda! I always love to hear your take on things! 💜
💗 Amanda i wanna say thank you for helping me so much !!! I have a lot of anxiety around spending money (especially on myself) and your thoroughness and style of video has been so helpful in buying makeup! Also you’re presence is really comforting to me now lol and I appreciate what you said about buying the products that make YOU feel good ! 💗💗
Hello Amanda! What an amazing comparison and presentation! 💘 Personally I haven't tried Glossier but I have seen a lot of reviews and my very oily skin would not agree with them, but I love Mac face and body because it is not oily but fresh, also it depends on the prep. Thank you again for being honest and for being you! I am glad I found you all those years ago! Lots of love!
Btw if you’re sensitive to coconut oil then you should also watch out for caprylic/capric triglyceride, which is just fractioned coconut oil
Just wanted to add this to your comment, fractionated coconut oil is different, it's basically the coconut oil that stays liquid even in low temp unlike pure Coconut oil which solidifies below 20°C or something whereas caprylic triglyceride or medium chain caprylic triglyceride (MCT oil) is derived from coconut oil that has C8-C10/C12 chain length of the fatty acid (and this is fungal acne safe mind you but does not mean it's safe for someone with coconut allergies, this is very lightweight oil too nd most makeup has it)
So technically MCT/ caprylic triglyceride is fractionated oil BUT when you go to buy it, fractionated coconut oil and caprylic triglyceride are two different things.
Idk the technical chemical terms properly but wrote it off of the top of my mind, so take it with a grain of salt
Hi! Great info from you both. I wanted to offer two tree nut free alternatives sunflower seed and grape seed oils. Both can be native to north America, thus better suited and less negatively impactful on our environment here. They are available in many forms including organic, non GMO, and food grade.
Sunflower seed oil is a good source of both Vit A and Vit C in a naturally occurring combination. I like it for my face, bath, body and my scalp treatment. Not so much for hair by itself.
Grape seed is a _great_ source of Vit E. However it may not be suitable for use alone with dry+acne prone or immuno compromised skin, imo. It's better as part of a mix.
I really enjoy discussing how the particle size, melting point and PH values impact the effectiveness for individuals. Thanks for being beauty nerds! 🤓🧪💄
Ooh hello other nerds! I just find saying fractioned coconut oil is easier to understand. Caprylic/capric triglyceride is a very common skincare/cosmetic ingredient. People who are sensitive to coconut oil may react the same way to caprylic/capric triglyceride. It could be a good ingredient to avoid in a situation where there is no alternative.
@@joaniechan9345 Sorry. I nerded too much didn't I? *sigh 😔
And lauroyl lysine in a TON of powders!
Thanks for this video Amanda. 💕💓 Always love and appreciate the detail and effort you put into your videos ☺️❤️
I've been so bummed since I haven't been able to get my favorite shades of the rare beauty blush (believe and love) for MONTHS but I started using my glossier cloud paints and have found similar color combos all because you started revisiting them in your videos! 💞 thanks for that hehe
Wait !! Please purchase the YOU from the website and compare! It’s one of my favorites
WOW what a fabulous video!I adore the Mac Face and body.Nothing like it.
💗 i loved this video. I fell into Glossier back in the day and was definitely burned by a couple of things. This is really helpful!
💖 REALLY, REALLY loved this video, and love your content in general. Thank you!!!
You’re my favorite deinfluencer 😌 I definitely needed this video today
I 💕have only tried one thing from Glossier and it’s the boy brow which I love! I have now picked up a eyeshadow palette from them, you are right they are minimal and the colors are gorgeous. I do buy Merit and I do like their products also. I’m older so this is why. Thanks Amanda great video.
🩷 this was super helpful! glossier is in my price range for makeup, so it's nice to be informed by someone who's as passionate and dialed into application, formulas, and color as you. thank you so much!
I'm just about done with my first bottle of the futuredew it's so amazing. Cannot live without it!
Thank you for this detailed video. ❤ other brands like merit and violet fr really stepped up to meet the demand glossier created
I got the Future Dew for exactly the reason you suggested--to make matte foundations look right on me--and it's doing the job so well.
💖💕💞💓💗💝as a recent subscriber, I’m in love with all of your video content! Thank you for being so thorough. We need more of you!
This video is so satisfying. I had the same trajectory as you with this brand and as time went on, I felt so confused by their products and launches. Some of them were just plain bad and I felt weird for not getting it (glossier stretch, lash slick, zit stick, etc Glossier Play, I’m looking at you). Also, some of the products are just not user friendly. Cloud paint is ridiculous to apply and blend. I think they’ve lost their momentum and are not really evolving with my beauty tastes which is so weird because I had such a visceral love affair with the brand! This was a great video, Amanda, as usual! Thanks ❤
This ended up being a trip down memory lane! I remember when I first found your channel I think in like 2018? When you were referencing your older reviews I remembered watching them :)
💗 Always love your content, Amanda!
💖thank you for doing this! I have been dying to try their perfume. So sad to hear it is not the same at Sephora. And I also retried my cloud paint. It is really good, I agree.
I have combination-oily skin that tends to get sweaty in the summer and my holy grail light-medium coverage product is the Dior Face and Body. It has a satin finish and doesn’t budge. The coverage is buildable and it doesn’t clog my pores!
💞 I just got Lash Slick in yesterday and have yet to try it. I love a my-lashes-but-better look, so we'll see!
Absolutely LOVE lash slick, the brown one is in my Sephora cart. It’s essentially a lash tint with a bit of ~flutter~ which is my ideal office vibe. And it’s cry proof, lol.
The lid stars are evil. I don’t even have sensitive eyes but the lid stars gave me blisters on my eyelids. I had to throw all of my eyeshadow out and avoid makeup for months. Reading the reviews on the site, I am not the only one. I really don’t know how they’ve never been recalled.
Love the what to get instead idea. I used to be obsessed with glossier lol and I still like the idea of them, but I’d rather try something else!
Hi! 💗 Thank you so much for the really in-depth review and alternative products. So helpful! Please can you tell me if the Glossier liquid bronzer sets down and lasts? I need something that will last me all day in work, but my cheeks eat cream and liquid products! Oh and I also appreciated what you said about buying products that make you feel good - it’s not for everyone but it’s why I love a bright lip! 😊
💓really liked your perforce on glossier. Thanks!
Lash slick is the perfect mascara for me 😊 also love the lip balm ❤️
Great video concept! Would love to see this done for other brands too 💖
Really needed this video! 💓
Lovely recs 💕 I have the Chanel one in the bronze color. It's my fave bronzer 💓
I adore future dew. My make up looks so much better with it on. I have mature skin but it just glows.
I also love the red lip gloss. Such a favorite!!! Great video 💗
I love this video! I've been thinking about a good replacement for skywash 💕
💕 I’ve gotten a few glossier products over the years I’m not really a heavy makeup buyer butt to this day I still love the futuredew and red lipgloss they were really worth buying for me, and I’m saying this as someone who’s fav gloss is the essence clear gloss 😂
I tried glossier as it was first launching and followed the subsequent launches, and I always wanted to love it, but I never did. None of the products worked for me. I think there is so much more on the market now that is better, and this move probably should have happened five years ago. I’m kind of surprised Sephora went for them when I feel like they’re a bit irrelevant? Also, I love how you subtly roasted yourself in this video, a girl who can make fun of her “imperfections” is a keeper in my book. 💕
💕love it, thank you! This will save me so much scratch! I have several of the alternatives you mentioned from watching your other videos -like the Merit skin prep and they’re great! Have you tried the Revlon Illuminance Foundation or any of the new Wet and Wild liquid eye shadows or that watery primer? I’d be curious to hear your thoughts. Though I have the Revlon foundation and love it more than any high or low end foundations on my older skin.
Wow! There's a lot of Glossier I didn't know...btw, I really enjoy wearing the elf lash n roll mascara! 💗
Thanks for all your great makeup info! 💞
💕
I saw that Sephora was carrying Glossier, I have never tried any of their products so thanks for the insight! Now I have more knowledge of where to start. 1st- def want to try the Balm Dotcom, which is your favorite? (You’re always my go to for all the details!) 👏🥰
Really appreciate this video. It has reinforced some thoughts I’ve had about glossier over the last couple of years. First thing I thought when they announced they were going to sell at Sephora was - sales are down, they are desperate to keep that GMV up. Upsetting to hear about a couple of the reformulations… specially watering down the perfume at Sephora. Ohhhhh capitalism!!! 💕
I still love Glossier You, it smells like no other. I bought a bottle at Sephora last week, it smells and last the same to me. People that want the same vibe but with longer lasting, you can try Radiant Nectar from Clean Reserve.
Oh I’m surprised to hear this because they changed the formula of you
Glad you’ve had a consistent experience with the new formulation 👍
Was hypnotized by your earrings the whole time! Where are they from? Ty ❤️
Loved this video!!!! 💕💕💕💕💕
❤ you get a red one instead 😊 I was looking into their complexion products and I’m still interested in the concealer but I’m curious to use it as a skin balm instead. You just saved me a lot of money with this video 👍
I tried the Skywash orange color liquid eyeshadow and with someone with a deeper skin tone it didn't show up very well. It's a little too light. I'm surprised that you didn't talk about the monochrome powder eyeshadow Amanda. I like those. The stretch concealer is o.k. I like the Cloud Paint blush in red. I have found Glossier at T.J. Maxx. Thanks for the video. 💝
Enjoyed as always so so helpful💕
Love your earrings, shirt, and hairstyle in this video
💖 Glad you made this video. Thanks..
💖 really enjoyed this video!
12:13 ByTerry CC powder is the best highlight for the natural glow that doesn’t emphasize texture, fine lines pores etc. it’s expensive but refillable and has lasted me a really long time. I use the star lite rose but I’m not sure if they still make that particular one. I can use it on my undereyes if I wanted to. It is just so beautiful
💗Great video, as always!
I love the glossier perfume …can’t live without it
💗💗💗 Ive been highly anticipating the arrival of Glossier at Sephora so this was extremely helpful in knowing what to add or subtract in my cart. Have you tried the Brow Flick pen? I saw Robert Welsh use it in a video and the tip looked so tiny, like actual individual brow hairs, which is exactly what I'm looking for to fill in the tails of my brows that seem to be naturally thinning with age. Is there anything similar you'd recommend? Ive never tried the pen style before and im worried about it looking too heavy or painted on.
💕 just commenting cos you’re my fave
💗 Great video once again!
💓absolutely loveeee your videos, and appreciate your effort
The reason why I watch your videos is because the way you talk. Don't ever think bad of your annunciation of words. You are simply adorable;
you're so sweet :)
💖. I agree, there were a breath of fresh air in 2016 and then I think Emily Weiss was so focused on making Glossier a tech beauty hybrid company (which, very weird!) they fell off on innovating and refreshing their product lineup. Glossier You is my fave perfume so I'll have to go to my Sephora and see if something has changed here too, that will be a bummer because I have a gift card I wanted to use for the perfume 🙃
This was sooo helpful, thanks! 💕🙃
Love this longer videos💕
💖💖 love your videos!
❤ thx so much for the great info!
💕💞💗💞💕
Loved this overview of Glossier. We can’t buy it in Australia, and I’d love to buy Future Dew. Hopefully it might come to Sephora down here too. 🤞🙂
The stretch concealer is still the only concealer I like for my under eyes! Glossier seems to be having so much trouble I'm scared they will dissolve, and that concealer will go with them. The only products they have that I believe are genuinely worth it and unique are their perfume and stretch concealer (along with a couple of their skin care products, but I won't fling myself to the surface of the sun if those go away, I hardly feel compelled to buy them anyway). Hoping this Sephora launch will give them the boost they need cause I would like for glossier you and the stretch concealer to stay! BUT HOW could they sell a watered-down version of glossier you just for being sold at Sephora?! HOOWWW. I was looking forward to using my Sephora git card on it.
I have had nothing but trouble with under eye concealers, so I tried this (based on the reviews) and it feels thick and dry - what do you prep your under eyes with? I use eye cream, layered with Bobbi Brown extra repair eye cream, which has an oil base and should help- do you use a brush or finger? I want to throw myself at the surface of the sun over Urban Decay Naked Skin weightless foundation original (before the newest one, also discontinued came out). NOTHING has come close to it!!
I also adore the stretch concealer and You. I also can’t understand how they would have a separate formula reserved just for Sephora…
I also hope Glossier doesn't go under because of the concealer - I can't find anything close to it outside the brand! I was hoping REM beauty's would be similar, but it's more satin finish and less sheer.
Glossier YOU is my favorite perfume. I was so excited when they brought the solid back, only to buy it and find that it smells like nothing. And lately the perfume hadn't smelled as strong either, and I thought it was me until I read some of the comments on this video. Bummer that it had been reformulated. I don't know why the good things always have to change....
I love the look of the Merit Day Glow, but I found the scent off. I thought it was like a rancid oil. After returning it, I noticed Sephora reviewers basically said the same thing. I love the Merit serum as a primer, but when I read about it, the directions were to wear it under sunscreen.
💗 grateful for the information
Thank you for your recommendations 💓
Would love to see a comparison between the future dew and the make beauty emulsion! It's the only other product I've seen that looks similar
Glossier came at a time when 2016 makeup was THICK. So they became the cool girl model off duty makeup. I use to read her blog so i remember thinking at the time, finally. Natural beauty shining through. Ppl used their makeup to feel on trend but I don’t feel their products have cosmetic elegance as you put it. I feel like I could make it myself with existing products I have, mixing matching and just sheer it out. And I did /still do this 😂😅 I also can’t use more natural products because of the coconut oil and algae. They really need to re-innovate.
Appreciate your insight and comparisons on this!
Ps. HOW WAS VEGAS
That video was very helpfull, thanks a lot 💖💞 I really like how the red gloss looks on you and I am contemplating getting it. Do they have a smell or taste to them?
I love Chanel Sculpting baume. I think it's almost the most perfect highlighter for me.
Glossier Haloscope is definitely an older product though. I believe it launched in 2016, whereas the Chanel baume came out in 2019.
Omg!!! Where did you get those earrings?? Lovely 🥰
I have never purchased Glossier. I’m sure it is very good. But I like seeing something,like makeup , before I buy it. With that said I agree with some of the comments. So many other companies with similar type products now that I can see in person. (I don’t have a Sephora near me)
Sorry to say, but I’m in love with your earrings…can you tell where you got them please? Also, as always, I love you videos and always take the time to listen to all the reviews by you…thanks a lot
Love this vid idea!!❤
