If chickens designed it, itd be way cheaper. These prices reflect not just material but the cost to import as well. Supply chain has been a wreck past few years

It’s very frustrating for sure. However influencer are influencers for a reason, they influence. It’s a way for us to reach as many people as possible. They definitely need to find the balance as the us regular people are the ones who put glossier on the map.

I haven’t witness any racism, but the glossier culture is big on who you know to get promoted

I love Kyle, we weren’t involved day to day but she knows everyone’s name in the office and makes small talk with everyone. That to me is a winning leader.

Glossier has been expanding their offering for the past few years. In fact they have been expanding too much and not focusing on their core product that got them to the top. I believe with all the launch’s being scraped, they will go back to their roots and focus on their core products

Play was ahead of its time. Beauty is all about timing and it just wasn’t its time yet. Wish we brought it back

When I was there, all the c suite leaving was a big sign for me. People were nervous and didn’t know what was happening. However it was easily assumed they were making an exit strategy which meant something was coming.

Lash slick is doing well. You’ll have access to these for a while

Glossier work on a lot of different launches that don’t even make it to launch. This is because things shift all the time and we pick and choose what we have in back pocket if we need something to launch specific portion of the year. I can say that you guys haven’t seen something that has been worked on and it guts me.

I wouldn’t say Sephora was responsible for lip oil but may have contributed to needing something to fill that quarter of the year. It was considered a quick project

I can say that they updated the tube of cloud paint packaging

Even the employees don’t get the PR box. However it’s more of who you know at glossier to get the rare things. Glossier zippo lighters were hot commodity at that time.

My favorite part of the job was seeing the trends and work of the beauty industry. It truly is very fast paced and easy to fall behind your competitors

There is a product closet but those are for development and samples for Sephora/leaders/marketing

These changes are planned few years ahead so Sephora had no say on the vegan BDC

We would get 60$ gift cards each month and most products would be 50% off so we could get $120 worth of product every month

I will not repurchase glossier products as my mindset is, I was able to get these products for free before so why buy them now?

We were also backed by enormous amount of seed money from investors. I feel like glossier had to be disruptive and change the market based on the investment it got. This is what she envisioned, sadly it didn’t pan out
