Five must-haves to buy from Glossier now that they’re shipping to Ireland

Five must-haves to buy from Glossier now that they’re shipping to Ireland

Rejoice beauty buffs, Glossier – the beauty brand you’ve seen all over your social media feeds or have bankrupted yourself in shipping charges via An Post – is now shipping to Ireland. They are anti-heavy contour, creating affordable, pared-down essentials in skincare and make-up that promote glowing, dewy skin. All their products are housed in very Instagrammable millennial pink and white packaging and they are coming soon to a social media feed near you.

You can buy Glossier online from today and shipping is €5, with free shipping on orders over €40. Heard the hype but not sure what to try? Cult favourites include the buildable-coverage Stretch Concealer and lip balm saviour Balm Dot Com, but for now, the below is a good introduction to bestselling Glossier items for any beginner. Glossier

 

Milky Jelly Cleanser, €16

This is Glossier’s most repurchased product and counts Pandora Sykes as a fan. Glossier reached out to their fans and asked them to describe everything they wanted in a cleanser. Glossier wanted a non-stripping make-up remover that would be played by Elle Fanning in a movie, and fans wanted a cleanser that was ‘mild,’ ‘glowy’ and ‘moist.’ That’s how Milky Jelly Cleanser was born – it’s rich, hydrating and creamy, gentle and comfortable on the skin and suitable for all skin types.

Boy Brow, €15

Introducing Glossier’s bestselling product of all, Boy Brow, a pommade available in four shades that thickens, brushes and grooms brows, with a collagen derivative that works to condition and strengthen hair fibres.

Moisturizing Moon Mask, €21

This is the most highly rated product on Glossier’s website. It’s a hydrating and brightening mask with hyaluronic acid that plumps the skin, smooths fine lines and brightens the complexion with soothing ingredients like honey and aloe.

Cloud Paint, €18

All Glossier make-up products can be applied with your fingers and this gel-cream blush is completely foolproof. Just dab the tiniest dot of it into the cheeks for a sheer, flushed glow. 

Lash Slick, €16

The newest member of the Glossier family – Lash Slick mascara had 200 prototypes before it was perfect. The tapered brushes gives an easy application fron root-to-tip, the formula includes biotin to strengthen lashes and microfibres to add length. Although it’s longlasting, it washes away really easily so you won’t lose lashes scrubbing it off at night.
