GLOSSIER GALS
This "review" is not sponsored, but I do have a 20% off link for people purchasing for the first time. However, everyone who signs up and has a Glossier account also gets their very own affiliate-type link, so it's not just me! I get $10 store credit for anyone who buys through my link ^____^ I think it's a super great deal for both ends to be quite honest hahah. If you look at Glossier's instagram... most of the comments are "link in bio for 20% off!" GG.
Anyways; this is my link if any of you want 20% off! http://bff.glossier.com/eq6nt *winky face emoji*
collection:
balm dotcom (kinda like overpriced vaseline: you put it on chapped skin, lips, and cuticles)
milky jelly cleanser (my fav cleanser; super nice and gentle on the skin)
soothing face mist (kind of meh, but smells like rosewater. doesn't do much; has a nice scent)
priming moisturizer (in all honesty.. I really dislike the scent of this priming moisturizer, so it isn't used very often)
perfecting skin tint (ok this really doesn't do much (leaves freckles and other 'imperfections' visible) but i do like how it diminishes the size of pores, and has an overall even tone)
mega greens galaxy pack (this mask was thick and ... interesting. you only put on a thin layer, but it feels like the opposite. it firms up pretty quickly. I left it on for around 20 minutes and then washed it off for... a not so different feel LOL)
moisturizing moon mask (you use this after the mega greens mask, or by itself. it's much less goopy and more smooth. left it on again for around 20 minutes, and washed it off for no noticeable change tbh. however, my skin already is pretty decent, so /shrug emoji)
rose balm dotcom (smells like roses. slight light pink tint)
mint balm dotcom (smells like mint. I find this the most soothing out of all the balms)
cherry balm dotcom (slight red tint on lips/cheeks. doesn't really smell like cherry?)
coconut balm dotcom (krystal's fav haha. not really my cup of tea but does smell good despite my overwhelming dislike for coconut)
boy brow (brown & black) [good, but the wand can have too much product & I have to use a separate brush to comb out the excess. used brown at first, but honestly black is more fitting to my face. I use both though, based on what look I'm going for.]
generation g (like, crush, cake, jam) [cake is my favorite shade. these are more tints than actually lipsticks. nice and moisturizing - not at all drying or heavy. creamy on the lips, so i dislike applying the lipsticks, but feels perfectly fine afterwards.]
stretch concealer (light) [pretty good as a concealer. light and does it's job well enough.]
haloscope (topaz & quartz) [creamy on the face, slightly unpleasant texture in my opinion. love the glo' tho, and easy to apply]
terry headband x2
many pink pouches
lots of sticker sheets
empty boxes
cards telling me to buy more glossier
many samples of priming moisturizer
many posters of creepy models...
items from glossier that I do not have:
logo g pin ($14)
glossier sweatshirt ($60)
phase one "skin is in" tote (you get it if you buy the $80 set; I didn't like the moisturizer and original balm dotcom enough for that)
In case anyone was wondering, this is how the orders went:

You can see that Glossier products are not the cheapest, but they have great packaging, marketing, and also some amazing products. It's really up to you if you want to buy into the hype. I personally think that some products, namely: milky jelly cleanser, and generation g are pretty worth it.

rambles;
i enjoy music in general, the smell of old books, the smell of new books, cracking the spine of a new book open, hilarious things, things that make me cry from sheer emotion, sad fics and dramas, cheesy dramas, baggy sweaters, pretty pictures, having that moment of inspiration before writing a story and being satisfied with the outcome, sleeping, running on no sleep, ice cream cake for birthdays, putting up my christmas tree by myself, cool lemonade, rainy cold days, drizzles on your face, action movies, unlimited amounts of piping! hot noodles and dumplings and wontons, minimalistic furniture, laughing at friends who are shorter than me, having deep conversations with strangers, muted colors, going through color pallets at diy stores, choosing yarn and looking through projects, drinking bubble tea, going to froyo stores, that moment when I finally draw something the way I imagined it, baking tasty sweets, cute stuffed plush toys, the smell of the ocean, fruit, good wuxia drams, some anime, the feeling of collapsing on the mattress after a long day, baggy sweaters, ice cream cake for birthdays, the tranquility of night, pretty pictures, cute cellphone charms, the tranquility of night, funny japanese emoticons, when everything is organized, when everything is disorganized, when my clothes match and don’t make me look like an overgrown middle schooler, when I actually don’t expect a plot twist, when I can’t predict what will happen next, overgrown kittens, energetic puppies, and being able to choose when to laugh.
