If you're like me and have used your Glossier Stretch Concealer ($20) down to the last little bit in the pot, you're going to want to listen up. Normally, as a beauty editor with a very short attention span, I don't exactly use any makeup formula until the last drop, but this creamy, buildable concealer is the exception and a forever favorite. It contains elastic-like waxes that stretch and move with your complexion, creating a true second-skin, dewy finish you just can't find anywhere else. My only complaint? That the formula didn't come in a foundation. Rumor has it, though, that so many Glossier customers reported using the concealer all over their faces that the brand finally gave in and created a foundation formula to match! It's just our luck that it drops today.

I know—you're positively drooling. Even if you're not quite yet, keep scrolling. I'm breaking down everything you need to know about Stretch Concealer's new sister below. You might also be wise to make haste, as this highly anticipated formula is bound to sell out.

All About Glossier's Stretch Fluid Foundation Formula

True to the original Stretch formula, this foundation provides a lightweight, second-skin finish. According to the brand, this formula is composed of 89% skincare ingredients and 11% color pigment. It's a gel-cream emulsion rich in hydrating ingredients like glycerin and squalane, so it won't dry your skin out throughout the day. It can even help repair a damaged moisture barrier. Additionally, plant extracts like wild rose berry and plankton work to help reduce the appearance of excess oil or shine on the skin, making it great for most skin types—even oily. Even if your skin is sensitive to fragrance or is acne prone, this formula could still be a match for you. It's totally noncomedogenic and fragrance-free. 

Lastly, it provides medium coverage and comes in 32 shades. In the age of Fenty Beauty and 50+ shade ranges, that doesn't sound overly impressive, but these shades are unique and totally flexible. They can adapt to your specific complexion and work to enhance the natural beauty of your skin tone. So go ahead—smash that buy button. I don't think you'll regret it, especially if you're already a stan for the concealer!
