GlowinMe: Beauty Tracker

I’ve been using the app for months and it perfectly fits my needs. Simple, clean yet effective solution for skin care tracking. No excessive whistles, just what I need for a tracker. Not to mention it’s free. Great job glowinme team.

The app asks to do a simple email verification when you make your account, which is very understandable. The problem is that the email never arrives. I’ve asked for a resubmission, waited hours, verified my email address to make sure there wasn’t a spelling error or something on my part, but the email just never comes, and without the verification you cannot continue to use the app. So unfortunately due to this error I cannot even see what the app is actually like.

The only complaint I have is that I have a highlighter and blush pack I wanted to log, but it made me choose one. Other than that it has a bunch of products already logged and I’m sure that’ll only increase!

I love this app it’s super useful though I’ll admit I may have gone overboard with adding things haha (please don’t add an item limit, it’d break my heart) My only complaints are I wish I could sort my tags by color, I’ve been trying to have the same amount of each color (9 reds, 9 pinks, 9 blues, etc) it’d make that easier. My next complaint is the app started to lag a little bit after the 300-400 item mark (I have a problem lol). Though I’m currently just chalking that up to me either not updating the app or my obsessive additions is causing the app to slow. When I go to add tags it takes a while for anything to pop up so I can search or click on them. And when I’m scrolling down in my wishlist there a little lag when loading stuff but that’s because of my many items, just a mild inconvenience I’ll live. (Probably doesn’t change the problem but I think the addition of a scroll wheel like the one in the category menu, but for the wishlist/collections, that lets you scroll to a spot based on the letter would be a cool addition and helpful if you have a large wishlist) Besides that I’d say the app is perfect. One another note, an app like this would be game changing for my non beauty related hobbies. The ability to document items, info on them and sort them all in one app is amazing. If you guys make an app exactly like this but for non beauty related items, let me know I’ll be the first person to try it 👀 If not, I think adding the ability to make your own custom main categories, like main 7 (Makeup/Skincare/Nails/Hair/etc) would make for a great new feature so I could use it for other purposes. This review is mostly just me rambling but to sum it all up. Great app, thank you to the creators for making it, I’d make a few tweaks but the app is so great on its own that I would never stop using it. A sister app would be cool if you want to take that idea. Just saying 🤷‍♀️ 4.5 / 5 Stars

the app froze & asked me to sign in again. it doesn’t recognize my password. I clicked ‘forgot my password’ nothing was sent to my email. I checked my junk folder. I clicked the contact us in the App Store & filled out the form to have nothing happen when I clicked send. I have a lot of stuff in the app I apparently just lost

This app is the perfect companion to someone who is all things beauty. I’d say the app is fairly easy to use, playing around and seeing what happens helps. It’s got a great tagging feature, which is clutch. My only grievance is with the “Routines”. I wish you could create your own routines, technically, yes that is a current feature, but then have only one calendar that allows you to see what routine you used on a given day. Having each routine have its own calendar seems out of place with all the other wonderful tagging features. Overall, products are easy to find and add. And I’ve enjoyed using it. No more running to a different room to check a shade name. (ps - I would love to see more product types available for skincare, bath and body and even brushes/tools, a lot of that becomes a manual entry).

I would like to be able to state what a product is. I added a lip balm and it categorized it as makeup, a body oil was categorized as skincare. I would like the ability to change these to fit my needs more. Then subcategories within. So bodycare and then oils.

This app is phenomenal! I’ve been busy with it since I downloaded it. Many items in my “stash” were not listed so I manually added them, which was easy to do. My only fear if you will, is the inability to backup what amounts to a personal database. There are options to share links or photos, which is impressive in itself but not an option to export in a manner that would allow to upload if you switch phones, wipe data, reset, etc With over 400 items and counting, I would not want to add back what could be lost. Thank you to the developer(s), this is fantastic!

This app is very well done. It’s got some hiccups but overall it’s very intuitive. Took me some time to get call my products in and create my routines, which was fun cause I love routines. The way it’s set up this can be used for tracking many different routines. I made a routine for makeup, skin, hair, microneedling and some meds I take. I really like the look book too. I always forget what I used and can’t recreate a look that I liked. This way I can keep track.

I’ve been using this app for over a year and while I like it there are definitely some hiccups. Today I tried contacting the dev team via their website’s contact form and both on mobile and desktop I get a “please enter a message” error when I try to send. My main issue at the moment is the app created a second category for my perfumes called “fragrances” and there’s seemingly no way to merge the lists back to the original “perfume” list, and all new items added automatically go to “fragrance”. I waited a few weeks to see if this would be fixed by an update but no luck. There’s also some bugs when adding photos, and sometimes the wrong product images show up in random spots. The structure of the app is good and my favourite out of the ones I’ve tried, but the bugs are frustrating, as is the inability to ask for help.
