Hello my pumpkins! Today, I am sharing with you my Glossier stretch concealer review. This is my second review in a week but I actually have so many products to review and I am quite behind on my schedule that I really needed to publish another review this week.
If you want to know my honest thoughts on the Glossier Stretch concealer then keep on reading! Don’t forget to check out my previous review : REVIEW // Face Exfoliator and Skin Perfector by Glossier
Glossier Stretch Concealer review
Product Information
This product retails for 18$, comes with 4.8g of product and comes in 12 shades. I have the shade G11 which is a light neutral shade.
It is described as buildable, enhancing, flexible and nourishing. Glossier claims that this concealer gives “a brightening effect and blend seamlessly into skin for [a] natural-looking coverage”. They also add that it does not look cakey and moves with your skin instead when you layer it.
This product is cruelty-free and is available on Glossier’s Website.
Packaging 4/5
This concealer comes in a little jar and has a very simple yet pretty packaging. The jar is transparent and the cap is silver with the symbol “G” drawn on it. I think the packaging is really pretty, nothing that makes it stand out of course but I mean it’s pretty and feels very Glossier-like. I really love how compact it is, it’s easy to store, to travel with and to use. I actually do like concealers in jars because you get a lot of control over how much you use and apply on your skin.
Formula 3/5
Concerning the formula, this concealer performs well however I don’t find it to be wonderful. It is indeed very hydrating and nourishing which I really love and it blends super easily on the skin. It has this gorgeous skin-like finish which I think a lot of people love. It’s a very creamy concealer and it layers beautifully. But what bothers me the most about this concealer is that it creases a lot and settle into my lines under my eyes. I actually never had a good experience with concealers that come in jars, this one is probably the best of them all but it still does not work for my skin.
Moreover, this is definitely not a concealer to cover acne (or even slightly colour correct) because it barely covers anything. It’s a nice concealer to brighten your under eyes but it’s truly meant for people who have no blemishes/dark circles or for the people who wish not to cover them. It, of course, does not claim to be full or even medium coverage but I thought it was important for me to mention it.

Conclusion – Glossier stretch concealer review 7/10
To conclude, I think this concealer is okay but is definitely not what I am looking for. It performs true to its claims however, like I mentioned, it creases and I hate that so I don’t think I’ll ever repurchase, let alone keep using it. Moreover, I think I’ll ever recommend it to people. If you are looking for a concealer with a natural and hydrating finish that is super lightweight and that lightly covers your imperfection while being buildable, I recommend the Milk Makeup concealer. It’s amazing!
That’s it for today. I hope you enjoyed reading this Glossier stretch concealer review. If you did, don’t forget to give it a ‘like’ and to subscribe to my mailing list.

I’m dying to try this for my light makeup days. Sometimes I go foundation free, only using the clarins primer (which has a bit of coverage) and this concealer would be perfect for those days

yess I think it would. I still use it on my no makeup makeup days. It’s very useful and practical. It is very hydrating though and looks shiny, I don’t know if you like this kind of look (I do)
I do for light makeup days! I just checked again they don’t ship here yet

Great review! It sounds pretty good though, but it sounds like it’s more for people who.. doesn’t need concealer? 😂 I really like the picture you took!
