Everything To Know About Glossier' Waitlist

by Kali Borovic

All good things in life are worth waiting for — especially when there's makeup involved. Once you get your heart set on great products that work best for you, it can be hard to find another one in a pinch. Well, now you don't have to. Thanks to Glossier's online waitlist, you can always be kept in the loop. Because nothing's better than knowing all the details when it comes to relaunches.

There's no worse feeling in the world than seeing that the product you just ran out of is out of stock. Not the we-need-to-talk text or even the you've-used-all-your-data text. That's why Glossier's waitlist is epic. When you see click on a product or shade that is sold out, a little sad face will pop up notifying you that you're unable to purchase. Don't let that get you down though. Underneath the sad face will be a place for you to enter your email address to get an alert when it's bad in stock.

It's that easy, people! Although there are a few things you should be warned about. The waitlist is often pretty long. I'm talking up to 10,000 of your closest friends waiting to online shop the same product. So you'll want to hop online as soon as you get that alert.

Glossier has always been super open with their customers about every change that they go through. On their blog, Into The Gloss, the company explained exactly why their products are often sold out.

"There's been an overwhelming demand that's led to us selling through almost 12 months worth of products in the first three months of this year," the Into The Gloss post says. "The truth is, beauty products take a crazy long time to make."

That's not the only thing the company is super open about either. Although Glossier doesn't ship internationally yet, they're keeping their customers by their side through every step. They made an entire Into The Gloss post about the steps they need to go through to make sure they can ship internationally.

You might not be able to get your products exactly when you want them, but at least Glossier is keeping you in the loop!
