Glossier Review

Glossier Cloud Paint - Beam

In the early days of my makeup exploration I was really disinterested in blush, because my cheeks are naturally so full and accentuated I thought wearing blush would just be overkill and basically have me looking like a clown. I was avoiding anything but foundation on my cheeks. I have luckily since seen the light and glory that is blushing your cheeks, especially on low-makeup days.

Glossier's Cloud Paint is a lightweight gel-cream like sheer to buildable blush. Beam is a soft peachy-pink, it gives my skin a nice flush of color without looking blush-y if that makes sense to you. I enjoy its breathable color it is a matte color and it does set down but it does so in a way that looks very natural on the skin. I don't want to get repetitive about this product, so I will give you the bottom line right now, I really like this blush. I wish there were more shades I was contemplating picking up another shade called Dusk which a muted bronzy peach but I have doubts on whether or not it would show up on my darker skin. I hope to see a shade expansion in the future.

I was curious to try this, because there aren't a lot of sheer matte lip colors out there, at least none that I know of. Mostly when I think of a sheer lip color it's of the high shine or glossy variety but I think what Glossier has done is quite unique. It feels very contemporary and is incredibly easy to wear. Glides onto my lips effortlessly and sits comfortably and doesn't emphasize my lip wrinkles.
