So, ive recently got a few bits from Glossier and really liking it so far, so thought it might be good to have a thread where people can share their likes, dislikes and recommendations.
So far i have:
Futuredew - love it so far. I cant see me using it makeup free as it's a bit too much, but beautiful under a light foundation / bb cream. Ive also used it before bed and my skin feels amazing the next day.
Cloudpaint - so this is what drew me to Glossier and i haven't been disappointed. I ordered in beam and it's very pretty, but just not quite the right colour for my pale skin, but it will be fab to mix with others. I love the texture, it seems very buildable and a little goes a long way. Have a found my HG blush? Once i have the right shade, yes possibly.
Holographic lipgloss - i should say that I wasn't planning to buy this, but it made sense to buy the set which includes a lipgloss, so i ended up with this one. I had low expectations tbh but i really love it. It catches the light beautifully when worn alone, but is also great over a blotted lipstick. So far, so good.
So far i would recommend all of the above. The price isn't cheap but not ridiculously expensive either. There's always a 10% off code which helps. (i posted my 10% off link in the promo codes board but worth asking friends or family if they have one, in case you would prefer to send a Glossier credit their way)
I've also now ordered the Perfecting Skin Tint and Stretch Concealer in G10 and i have high hopes for these. I know the PST gives very little coverage and that's fine with me. Hope i like it!
Sneakily i also added another cloudpaint to my order so I'm also waiting for Storm to arrive - I'm hoping this, possibly paired with beam on occasion, will be my dream blush.
Keen to know what you have liked / disliked - what lives up to the hype and what doesn't? Also any tips or hacks for application would be great. ❤️

I really want to try Cloud paint, is it easy to use? How do you apply?
I use a brush mostly - squeeze a tiny (and you really only need a tiny bit and it does come out quite fast if you squeeze too hard!) bit onto a smallish face brush and then blend. You can also use your fingers and sometimes I do that as a final blend but I find that sometimes the pressure of fingers creates a bit of natural redness in your cheeks anyway, so it's hard to see where you have applied!
I have also started changing the placement of my blusher - so rather than applying straight to the apples of my cheeks and blending upwards, I start on my cheekbone and blend down so that it fades into the apple of my cheek - I find it just gives a bit more lift to my face? Saw that tip on YouTube recently and it can apply to any sort of blusher 
I love the Cloud Paint too. I read a review which said Glossier is make up for people who can only finger paint. That is me

Ok so far I've used my fingers for this but i will try a brush tomorrow, as there may be less chance of it sitting in my pores if you paint it on rather than almost press it on....
Thanks for the tip!

Are you like a rep for Glossier, or is it literally just a referral link that anyone can get? Every time I have watched a YouTube video on Glossier they seem to have some sort of deal going on with the brand? Everyone seems to be in on something that I'm not!
Also, I waited a long time for delivery, almost 2 weeks, which is what they said it would be on the website - I assumed this was because it was being shipped from the US?
