As soon as Glossier was available in the UK last week, I didn't think I was going to go as mad as I have but I have fallen for the brand (I blame Lily from Pint Sized Beauty slightly, we are both obsessed). I thought I would share some first impressions within my haul as I have been testing them out for a little over a week now and so far, I am so impressed!

Lily had tried out a couple of products before the UK launch and recommended me the Milky Jelly Cleanser, I am not that crazy about skincare but I thought I would give it a try and see if it is worth the hype. It retails for £15 which is slightly more than what I would usually pay for a cleanser but I am really impressed with it and the way it leaves my skin feeling. I have been using this as a second step cleanser and it leaves my skin feeling clean but not stripped of hydration and feeling super soft. The other product I ordered as part of my first order was the Generation G in Jam. I had wanted this ever since I saw 50 Shades Darker earlier this year and saw that she wore it in the film, it looked stunning on her!
I actually had a slight issue with my Generation G when it arrived as it smelt bad, I asked a few people on Twitter what their's had smelt like and basically confirmed that I had got a bad one. I popped them an email and they were incredibly helpful and got back to me the same day and sorted me out a replacement. They even had asked for my batch number so they would look into it further - props to Glossier for being so great! As they had great customer service, it made me want to order more...so I did! As soon as I placed my first order I regretted not ordering the birthday Balm Dotcom so that went straight into my basket! This one smells incredible and has glitter running through it and is super hydrating.
I had been eyeing another one of the Generation G lipsticks and the concealer so I decided to order the Phase 2 Set as it worked out to be cheaper to order the set, especially with a discount code. Inside the set you get the Stretch Concealer, Boy Brow and a Generation G, you are able to select the shades that you want and they arrive in a gift box (and of course with a pink bubble wrap pouch!). I decided to get the concealer in light, a clear Boy Brow and the Generation G in Crush. I really like the Gen G lipsticks as they have a matte finish but are so comfortable to wear and I love the diffused, sheer look they give the lips. I haven't tried Boy Brow and the concealer enough to give my full first impressions but I do like the results so far, the concealer has better coverage than I thought it would!
I know a few people had had issues with shipping but that hasn't been the case for me. They arrived within a couple of times with each order, one came through Royal Mail and the other DPD.
