The latest Glossier product looks so delicious and we need it in our lives asap.

Cult beauty brand Glossier has added a new flavour to one of their hero products, Balm Dotcom.

The multi-purpose lip and skin salve is a true handbag hero particular if you’re someone who’s prone to chapped lips (I can’t be the only one…)

The hydrating formula is enriched with antioxidants and natural emollients and the dense, waxy texture manages to seal in moisture.

The newest addition to the Balm Dotcom family is designed to be akin to a “mango always ripe and ready in your pocket” and we need that kind of fresh fruitiness in our everyday lives.

It’s priced at €12 and the new mango flavour joins six other much-loved flavours including Birthday (inspired by Milk Bar’s famous cake, with subtle shimmer), Rose (with a barely-there pink tint), Cherry (with a sheer, juicy red tint), Mint, and Coconut.

We know we’re not the only ones excited to add to the collection, surely having all seven can’t be a bad thing?

You can check them out here but hurry because this new launch is selling quickly.

It’s a big week for Glossier because not only have they launched a new product which has been received with much excitement, they’ve also landed further investment.

The brand just raised $100 million from investors led by Sequoia Capital and Glossier, which sells almost all of its products online, is now valued at $1.2 billion.

The company’s runaway success has resulted in the much envied description of a “tech unicorn” with CEO Emily Weiss sharing her joy in a heartfelt Instagram post.

Baby me in 2014 wasn’t sure if we could afford the next hire, didn’t know if anyone would like her idea for a beauty company, was engaged to be married, and hardly knew a venture capitalist from a bank teller. Emily in 2019 has been through hell and high water to build an incredible company with incredible people, endured heartbreak and experienced new love, and been among a very small minority of women raising this kind of money at these kinds of prices, to build the things they believe in. Today Glossier was able to achieve something very special. And all it means, is that we get to keep building things that make people happy. On this day especially, I am so excited to say: go team go ✨
