SHORT REVIEW
In this video, I review the new Glossier Stretch Fluid Foundation on my acne-prone, textured, oily skin and let you know if it's considered acne-safe.
Foundation Rating
3/5 Stars ⭐ This is a high-quality foundation that appears hydrating on the skin. However, I deducted two stars because it is not transfer-proof, easily fades throughout the day, and may not feel lightweight for everyone.
Who would I recommend this to?
Anyone who prefers a skin-like, healthy, glowy finish, especially if you have normal to combination skin.
Would you recommend this for oily, acne-prone, textured skin?
No, unless you prefer a glowy foundation and don't mind touching up throughout the day.
Packaging
Slightly weighted glass bottle with a plastic top.
Is it considered acne-safe?
No, as there are two ingredients that are considered comedogenic (can clog pores).
How does this compare to other foundations?
It is a high-quality formula with a good shade range and initially looks beautiful on the skin. However, there are better foundations more suited for acne-prone, textured, and oily skin.

Missed your calming energy this past month!

[@ellerchu]

Thank you for coming back. 🥹 I’m trying to find a good routine. But in the time I find a consistent schedule, I’ll continue to post shorts!

[@islathomass]

this helped so much and you look beautiful !!

[@ellerchu]

You’re so sweet!! I’m happy it helped.

Hey Elle i have been loving your videos and love your calming nature. I love how you embrace your acne prone skin. I have been really conscious about my acne, ive had it ever since i was 13 and im about to start adulthood and still have acne. You make me more confident in my own skin. I just wanted to say thank you for being so real, its very rare to see a youtuber with the same acne prone and textured skin as me. Also we are shade twinsies hehe.

[@ellerchu]

Your story is so similar to mines. 🥹 We’re in this together!

[@mariahgunn7101]

Looks beautiful so I definitely want to try this and the Armani luminous silk foundation.

[@ellerchu]

Let me know when you do!

New subbie here! Thank you so much for the review! This has been on my list to try. Also, can you post about your skincare routine? I also struggle with oily skin and hormonal acne/ scarring (which seems to be getting worse 😩)

[@ellerchu]

Yes! Once I feel 100% about the products I’m using, I’ll film a video. But this is what I’m using atm: - CeraVe Foaming Facial Cleanser (This is okay, trying to find something better) - Paula’s Choice Salicylic Acid Liquid Exfoliant (2-3 x a week and I switch it out with the days I wear a serum + oil) - Axis-Y Dark Spot Correcting Glow Serum (still testing) - Illiyoon Concentrate Cream - Biossance Squalane Oil - Elta MD UV Clear Sunscreen - Birth Control

Beautiful young woman…You go Elle Chu…

Would love to see your thoughts on the new Youthforia foundation

[@ellerchu]

I just ordered it 😉

[@heidizeiler1269]

I just found your channel. I love this foundation but have not some mild acne days after using. Have you tried the glossier spf i love the way it feels on my skin. Is the spf a clean product? I would love to hear your feedback.

[@ellerchu]

The unfortunate! I’ve never used the SPF from Glossier. My skin reacts badly to a lot of sunscreens, so I don’t try many. I like to stick with the Elta MD UV clear. To check the ingredients of a product, I recommend downloading the acne safe app!

What false eyelashes are you wearing? Looks really nice. Also ty for the review.

They’re the Velour Xtensions 💗

Hi dear. I just watch yor video. So you think one size is the best powder for oily skin? Thank you. 🤍

[@ellerchu]

Yes! It’s the powder that keeps me matte for the longest ♥️

[@lucylawal5370]

Does the brush feel like it tugs on the skin too much?

[@ellerchu]

Yes and because it grabs on to the foundation, it doesn’t build the coverage properly. I prefer to pat with the brush instead (like a beauty sponge)!
