Sensitive Skin? These 5 Glossier Products Soothe Even The Most Reactive Skin

Irritated skin, be gone!

Sensitive skin is arguably one of the most difficult skin types to manage, because sometimes you might not even know what causes irritation.

As you’re at a higher risk of developing skin conditions like eczema, it’s best to err on the side of caution when it comes to your skincare, picking natural and gentle products and really learning what best suits your skin.

Glossier is a popular choice for most skin types as their products are lightweight, uncomplicated and they only use gentle ingredients. It’s been described as ‘very basic,’ but for some, that’s a good thing.

Their products are paraben and alcohol-freetwo common irritants for people with skin sensitivity issues. But according to a few Reddit threads like this one, Glossier’s products tend to be a hit or miss when it comes to sensitive skin.

There are really mixed reviews, with some people claiming it caused reactions when they’d never had any before, and others praising it for helping soothe theirs.

One reviewer writes, ‘Glossier is the best thing that has ever happened to my skin. I’ve tried topical creams for both acne and eczema, even stopped using tap water (the water in the last place I lived gave me a rash lol), and glossier has done more for my skin than anything I’ve tried my whole life!!!’

Of course, not every single product from a brand is going to work well for your specific concerns. It’s about finding the ones that do.

To help you out, I scoured reviews of the brand’s products to find the best products for people with skin sensitivity.

I found a thread discussing Glossier products for sensitive skin, and many have recommended using moisturizing masks. Compared to their other products, the Moisturizing Moon Mask is soothing for most skin types, especially acne-prone skin.

One review said: ‘My skin sometimes flares up, and it’s kinda sensitive, but it LOVES this mask.’

So this mask is a safe choice if you’re super careful about skin products. After using it, your skin will feel refreshed and hydrated.

Super Glow, £25 – buy now

Unlike other serums, the consistency of Super Glow is milky – not oily. So you can pair it with another product like a lotion or a primer without any extra heaviness in texture.

Currently, it has a 3.7-star rating, but there is a lot of praise for this specific product from people with sensitive skin. Many saw exceptional results like less redness and no irritation or breakouts after using it.

A reviewer shared their experience with the Super Glow serum and said, ‘I have very pale, super sensitive skin, and after about two weeks of using this, I’m noticing a lot less redness, smoother texture, and general glowiness.’
