1. Wowder— the loose powder of your dreams

Recently, the brand launched Wowder— a tinted loose setting powder, and it has the entire beauty community #shook. The Wowder cuts shine, sets makeup, and blurs the appearance of pores, leaving the skin with a glowy “matte-but-not-flat” finish.

And to top it off, it doesn’t have flashback! This currently comes in three shades: Light/Medium, Deep/Dark, and Rich.

Watch New York Beauty Vlogger Nicol Concilio put Wowder to the test and see it’s magic for yourself!

2. Living for the Haloscope glow

Haloscope may not be your typical blinding highlight, but this gem of a cream stick highlighter gives off a beautiful, natural iridescence. With a core of vitamin-rich moisturiser made of good skinfood ingredients like almond and coconut oil, Haloscope leaves you looking dewy and healthy all day long. Oh and did we mention it has actual crystal extracts? Basically Swarovskis on your face girl!

3. Blushing for Glossier Cloud Paint

We love Cloud Paint because it’s seamless, buildable, and gives off a natural rosy glow, making the skin look and feel healthy. Celebs like Taraji P. Henson, Reese Witherspoon, Chrissy Teigen,Rashida Jones, also love to wear the Cloud Paint blush on and off the red carpet.

These pretty things have a pillowy gel-consistency that effortlessly glides and blends on the skin. Plus, they come in four shades (Dusk, Haze, Beam, and Puff), in an oh-so cute squeeze tube.

If you need more convincing, check out Blogger Steph Zheng’s review and swatches of the Cloud Paint, accompanied by more pretty pics.

4. Boy Brow keeps our brows on fleek

This has been a cult-fave of beauty gurus everywhere, and for a good reason. Miranda Kerr was recently spotted using Boy Brow in her trial Bridal make up look tutorial.

Boy Brow aims to thicken, fill in, and groom brows into place so you can slay with brows on point all day everyday. Boy Brow comes in Blond, Black, Brown and Clear.

5. Generation G is our go-to lippie

Generation G is not like your other matte lippies. It has a unique formula that adapts to individual skin tones, so they’ll appear a bit different on everyone as your natural lip colour shows through. It basically swatches as a unique custom lip colour for everyone. With a range of shades that fits any skin tone, Generation G has a matte finish that’s easy to wear everyday.

6. The Clear Lip Gloss— 90s nostalgia in a bottle

This lip gloss is what our 90s dreams are made of (cue Lizzie McGuire the Movie soundtrack). This crystal-clear lip gloss can be worn on bare lips for a natural makeup look, or a shiny added extra on top of lipsticks, with no glitter, no stickiness and no mess. Either way, Glossier’s Lip Gloss is making it their mission to bring back the glossy lips trend— and we’re here for it.

Watch the adorable Sarah of Cat Creature pair the Lip Gloss with her favourite Generation G shade.

7. Smackable lips with The Balm Dotcom

The Balm Dotcom or the Universal Skin Salve is a Glossier classic, and a cult-fave. It’s packed with antioxidants and natural emollients to nourish and repair dry, chafed skin. Perfect for keeping your lips soft and hydrated. Grab this lip care essential in one of their 5 flavours: Birthday Cake, Rose (with a barely-there pink tint), Cherry (with a sheer, juicy red tint), Mint, and Coconut.

The Balm Dotcom is another one of Christine’s faves so check out her review of this delicious lip essential above!

8. Moon Mask upped our skincare routine

Need a little skin pick me up? The Moisturising Moon Mask is quite possibly the most hydrating treatment we’ve come across that doesn’t make the skin look greasy and dull. It’s very creamy, brightening, and leaves you feeling positively dewy and radiant. It’s made with good skinfood ingredients like sweet almond oil, plant-based squalane, and hyaluronic acid do to visibly plump skin up with hydration, helping to smooth the appearance of fine lines and restore elasticity

9. Sun safety first with Invisible Shield

We love a good sunscreen so we’re super chuffed our trusted skin-loving beauty brand Glossier came out with the Invisible Shield— protecting your skin from sun damage and skin cancer, as well as neutralise harmful free radicals.

As the name suggests, this SPF legend has a lightweight feel with a clear watergel formula filled with active microcapsules that instantly absorbs into skin for a no greasy residue and zero white cast.

10. Achieve hydration with Body Hero Duo

The Glossier Body Hero Duo is a great way to try two of Glossier’s popular body products and save a little at the same time. This set includes the Daily Oil Wash as well as the Daily Perfecting Wash. If you’re after hydration and a light pleasant scent, this could be the perfect Glossier purchase for you.

As one reviewer says, “Not only does it smell delicious, it actually works for my dry skin. Eczema is no match for this. The body oil is the perfect cleanser without drying my skin. ” So if you are a fan of light scents, the orange blossom neroli notes will get you excited and the ingredient list packs an impressive list of oils that all point towards intense hydration – Coconut, Meadowfoam, Olive, and Soybean Oils, Sesame Oil, Grapeseed Oil and Sunflower Seed Oil.

11. Travel friendly scent with Glossier You Perfume Solid

Perfume that is solid, doesn’t leak and comes in a cute pink container that will fit the smallest of handbags? Glossier really hit the nail on the head with the launch of their Glossier You Perfume Solid. If you like warm musky scents that are just that little bit sultry and peppery, you’ll really enjoy this. Watch the gorgeous Lizbeth Hernandez share her review about the scent!

12. Effortless dressing with GlossiWear

It’s limited edition and stands true to the brand’s aesthetic. If shades of millennial pink, white, grey and pops of red and yellow are your thing, you’ll love every single thing on the list. We have our eye on the upcoming collection of baseball caps, sweatshirts and claw clips. See the entire collection here. And run, don’t walk, because once it’s gone, it’s gone.
