![]() "As a makeup artist, I’m really familiar with working with a wide range of complexions and undertones," Isadare tells The Zoe Report exclusively. Makeup artist Fatimot Isadare and Kym Davis, Glossier's Head of Product Development, worked to make sure that the hues looked good on a variety of customers. 12 may not seem impressive compared to, say, 40, but don't be dismayed. Now, both products come in 12 shades, from G1 to G12. Skin Tint and Stretch Concealer were only available in five shades, respectively: Light, Medium, Dark, Deep, and Rich. But now that Glossier expanded the shade ranges for both products, I can proudly wear a full face of the line, from the time I moisturize to my final step of my makeup routine, which is always highlighter. And personally, I don't have the patience to mix, match, and combine different formulas. Both, previously available in just five shades, were way too light for me (I tried Rich). The brand's Perfecting Skin Tint and Stretch Concealer, sadly, are two products that I didn't really get a chance to know and love. But as someone who's prone to spend most of her free time masking rather than putting on makeup, the brand's "Skin First, Makeup Second" ethos is one that I dearly appreciate. Give me anything millennial pink and bubble wrapped, and you've got my heart. Glossier has a very special place in my heart - and on my vanity - for a number of reasons. ![]() Glossier Stretch Concealer is a nice, lightweight pick if you don’t need a ton of coverage but if you’re suffering from major eye drama you might not want to indulge.Īs for me, it remains a fond fav when I’m just running errands and want a little coverage to make me look brighter and alive.I'll own up to my bias. I had no issues with creasing which was a plus! It doesn’t wear very long though without setting powder. It doesn’t look like I have any makeup on at all. ![]() I can easily use it if I’m well rested and even like the way it looks on me as it brightens up my eyes and makes me look awake and perky. They market this towards a more younger makeup user who likely doesn’t have issues with tired looking eyes and a little coverage is all that’s needed to make them look great. But I also have to remind this isn’t a makeup line that’s marketed towards my demographic or age group. It’s a very brightening formula that makes my eyes look well rested but it lacks the coverage to really hide major issues such as puffiness, dryness, or finer lines. I can actually wear this without eye cream and it applies perfectly. The texture is very lightweight no matter how much you pile on and it’s very easy to work with and blend out. It applies beautifully under my drier, finely lined eyes with an easy glide. The formula is soft, lightly emollient, and has a dewy finish which I hated but since I set with powder it was easy enough to correct. I fit in perfectly with medium which does oxidize a bit lighter once applied. Glossier Stretch Concealer comes atcha in a small glass jar and is available in five shade selections making it far behind the times since many, many brands have updated their base collections to include a super wide range of shades to fit girls and guys of all colors. Actually, whenever I’m in California this is my best friend because I am getting 8 hours of sleep a night, chilling out, and I’m just well rested and not pulled in five hundred directions as I am when I’m home (those West Coast people totally know how to live a chilled life compared to us East Coasters). So, Stretch Concealer is something I reserve for when I am relaxed, well rested, or just chilling and running some errands and full coverage concealer is at the very back of mine. I live a very busy lifestyle and sometimes I’m not always getting the amount of sleep I need and that means tired looking eyes carrying around ten pounds of baggage. If I got 12 plus hours a sleep a night I’d be all over Glossier Stretch Concealer like peanut butter on jelly but that’s not the case. ![]() Who uses it? Show of hands! I know a lot of people who love this stuff and it’s quite nice but just not something I use daily. No seriously, Glossier Stretch Concealer is one of those things I picked up when it first launched but never got around to reviewing yet people still ask me, “Have you tried it!?” and I’m always like, “Damn! I need to review Glossier Stretch Concealer for these people!”Īnd here I am, finally, taking a moment to share my thoughts. My Glossier Stretch Concealer ($18) review is well past the date of expiration! I hope no one gets food poisoning reading it as this should have been posted two years ago or more.
