Sephora is home to over 340 beauty brands, ranging from boutique women’s fragrance collections to up-and-coming makeup lines and stalwart skin care companies. Although the retailer regularly adds new beauty brands to its lineup, few summon as much excitement as Glossier — as of this week, shoppers can restock their favorites from the minimalistic beauty brand in 600 Sephora stores throughout the US and Canada and at sephora.com.
Glossier launched in 2014 with much fanfare; the line resonated with guys and girls alike for its skin-first approach to beauty. Instead of full-coverage foundation, Glossier offers a sheer, skin-revealing tint that subtly evens out your complexion. Rather than richly pigmented powder blush, the brand debuted their Cloud Paint liquid blush with watercolor-like, blendable color payoff. Beyond the less-is-more approach to makeup, Glossier also plays into ease of use with every product. Boy Brow defines your arches in a quick swipe; Balm Dotcom delivers a flush of lip color that doesn’t require a mirror to reapply.
