Glossier had a pop-up shop in the West Loop neighborhood of Chicago. Glossier is known for their simplistic chic style museums/pop-up shops around the country. They have had these mini stores in New York City and Los Angeles. Luckily it was finally time for a Chicago Glossier pop up! Glossier is a cruelty free natural make up brand. Some of their key products include boy brow, balm dotcom, cloud paint and their milk jelly cleanser. Glossier embraces natural beauty as a brand and their products help you elevate your beautiful features.

Their products are meant to make your skin feel and look flawless. Their balm dotcom make your lips look luscious and full. Lash slick enhances your long beautiful lashes just as they are. Many of the glossier campaigns feature bare, young-faced women sporting their latest make up. One of the newer and more popular products is called lid star. It is a liquid shimmery eye shadow that comes in two shades. What sets Glossier apart from other make up brands, is how they crate a lifestyle with heir amazing products. This brand wants you to embrace their make up and skin care lines in your everyday life.

I had never tried or even been to a Glossier before. When I heard there was a Glossier pop-up in Chicago , I knew I had to go. When I walked up to the pop-up in the West Loop, I loved every inch of the entrance. It was located in an old, abandoned garage. The aesthetic alone killed me. I was greeted immediately by friendly faced glossier associate. The associates all wore super cute and fun light pink jumpsuits. This pop-up shop was beautiful inside and out. Everyone was so kind and sweet. I tried all of the best products and ended up leaving with some pretty great ones. I had only ever ordered the perfume online before so seeing all the products in person was pretty cool.

The walls were covered in beautiful portraits of bare face and beautiful women. There were sound bubbles hanging form the ceiling so when you walked under one, different sounds would echo down on to you. The most beautiful sounds I heard were the raindrops and bird sounds. There was even guest book you could sign after you visited the pop-up shop. Glossier sprinkled small white statues and busts with pink flowers scattered throughout. There were kind messages written on the walls and on mirrors. They of course had their signature slogan “you looks good” everywhere you turned inside the store. This pop-up was both minimal and chic.

The first product I purchased was the Balm Dotcom in Cherry. I always love a good red pigment lipstick and this cherry lip balm was perfect. This balm was so subtle and glossy. It gave my lips the perfect tint and it tasted so good. All of the balm dotcoms has fun colors and mismatch caps. I truly loved the packaging of this product.

The second product I had to have was the glossier lash stick. Almost all of the associates were wearing glossier’s new mascara and their lashes all looked phenomenal. I myself took off my make up and tried it out. I loved how long the mascara wand was long and thin. This mascara gives you the perfect natural look. My lashes were elongated perfectly and i was shocked at the results i was seeing in the mirror. I’m telling you, with this mascara and a lash curler, your eye lashes will look gorgeous every single day.

The last product I purchased was boy brow. This product is an eye brow gel that keeps your bushy eyebrows in place. I chose to get the brown tinted product because i wanted to match my natural hair color. I tend to have a little patchiness in the front of each of my eyebrows. Boy brow does an amazing job of making them look effortless and natural. Plus the gel keeps my eyebrow hairs in place. 10/10 would recommend.

Of the three products I purchased I have to say the lash stick mascara is my favorite. I use it everyday and I adore how my eye lashes look. Boy brow is a close second. After trying all the products at the pop-up shop, I can honestly say that I love this brand. Glossier empowers their customers and enhances their natural beauty. I absolutely loved the cute pink packaging I received in my goodie bag. My bag was light pink and clear. I received a free mini perfume and a sticker set along with my three purchases. The hot pink bubble wrap bag is glossier’s most iconic packaging. Whenever you order from Glossier you receive this cute little zipper pouch. It makes traveling with your glossier products so easy and convenient. I truly had a lovely time and I will definitely be purchasing from this brand even more in the future.
