Why you’ll love it: Glossier Priming Moisturizer is ideal for pre-makeup prep, but it lacks any of the common irritants that make other primers a bust for sensitive skin.
Glossier Priming Moisturizer was one of the first products the millennial-favorite beauty brand released on initial launch, and it remains a fan-favorite. Within the chic pink-and-white tube is a creamy, fragrance-free moisturizer that hydrates and preps the skin for makeup.
Unlike most primers, this fully doubles as a moisturizer that you can use on its own, day or night, thanks to an ingredients’ list that boasts hyaluronic acid, mushroom super hydrator, an anti-redness complex with tea and honey extracts, and an antioxidant blend of Vitamins A, C, and E plus radish root.
The lightweight texture and soothing ingredients help even skin tone and create a smooth base for base makeup to blend over the top. The squeeze tube is also said to be more hygienic than your typical jar packaging since you don’t have to keep dipping your fingers in to distribute the product.
“I'm 36 and this gives me doll-like skin. My pores and fine lines are non-existent and my skin has improved tremendously. So glad I found this,” writes one reviewer on the Glossier site. The product has a 5-star rating on the product review website Beautypedia and a 4.2 rating based on 1,400+ reviews on Influenster.
Pros: Lightweight, works under makeup, fragrance-free, cruelty-free
Cons: Might not be hydrating enough for dry skin
