The Glossier Routine
The buzz around Glossier is for real. I have yet to use a product of theirs that doesn’t wow me or make me rethink all of my cosmetics in general. My only complaint is how many new launches they keep coming up with – I can’t stay on top of them! Who am I even kidding, I love it, I hope they don’t stop. Scroll down to find out my current loves in my Glossier routine.

Glossier Skincare
Before Glossier launched, the creator Emily Weiss used her popular beauty blog Into The Gloss to crowdsource her readers unmet product wants. Thanks to that research, us end users have been blessed with this basic but effective skincare lineup. Check out my review of the Glossier Phase One launch.
Milky Jelly Cleanser
The is a gift to those of us who don’t want the two step process of removing makeup. Two pumps of the Glossier Milky Jelly Cleanser and your day face will melt right off. The formula is so gentle that my rosacea doesn’t flare up nor does it irritate my eyes.
Priming Moisturizer
When applying my eyebrows, the is the only thing that will make my brow crayon go on smoothly. I could not live without the Glossier Priming Moisturizer – it’s an essential. In addition to that, its lightweight formula is surprisingly highly moisturizing and create the perfect base for makeup: dewy but not greasy.
Balm Dot Com
The Balm Dot Com does everything from soothing chapped lips to moisturizing dry hands. Sometimes I’ll even put it on my eyelids to give myself a dewy look. Since my initial post, Glossier has released a plethora of flavours such as Birthday Cake, Cherry, Coconut, Rose, Mint, and more.
Glossier Makeup
As Glossier slowly expands their product line, I’m most anticipating what they’re developing on the makeup side.
Stretch Balm Concealer
The Stretch Balm Concealer was newly introduced last year (2016) and not part of the initial 2014 launch. It goes on smoothly. There’s so much moisture to it but when it sinks in, it doesn’t cake on your skin. They’ve also expanded the shade range too.
Fun fact: it’s actually made in Canada!
Generation G Lipstick
The Generation G Lipstick is a sheer matte buildable formula. It’s a lightly tinted version of your own lip colour. Perfect for the “no makeup” makeup look. This shade is called Cake, a light peach. UPDATE: I do find that the formula gets a little dried out overtime but paired with some Balm Dot Com and it spreads on easier.
Boy Brow
Dare I say this might be the hero product set to be a cult classic? The Boy Brow is unreal. I like to use this brow mascara as the top coat after my pencil that way I can brush it neatly and the Boy Brow seals the pencil. My only complaint is that I wish I had more eyebrow hair to create a bushier look. SIGH.
Perfecting Skin Tint
I’m the type of gal who prefers to keep it simple with my day-to-day makeup. Most coverup leaves my skin feeling like I’m wearing a mask. Glossier’s Perfecting Skin Tint is a lightweight overall face tint that just evens out my skin but lets it breath.
Glossier Wish List
There’s a wave of new launches coming and I can’t wait to try a few of them, the serums in particular. Are there any Glossier products you absolutely love or are dying to try?

How do you get this is Canada?? I have been trying to get some of this in Canada for months but no luck since they don’t ship outside the US.
I have a US mailing address! if you ever go on a trip, mail it where you’re going perhaps? Hopefully they launch in Canada soon.
