REVIEW: Flower Beauty



Flower Beauty is a make-up line that highlights affordability and quality. Flower's philosophy is that you should not have to spend a lot of money for good quality products. That's a philosophy I like! I love beauty products but I am often discouraged by prices.

When I first discovered Flower I was really excited to try out some of their stuff. With an A-list actress behind the brand like Drew Barrymore, I figured the products would have to be half-ways decent.

When it comes to face products (foundation, powders, concealers etc.) I am more willing to spend money on higher-end products. Due to how affordable the Flower brand is I decided to try both a foundation and powder. As well, I picked up an eye brow pencil, lip chubby, and mascara.

Check out my review of these products below!

My camera has kind of been acting up lately, so these pictures are not of the greatest quality. (Sorry!!) 


I actually love this eyebrow pencil. I have thick eyebrows naturally so I only use brow pencils for minor enhancements. I find the application smooth and you do not have to be heavy handed with this pencil. It is definitely a great pencil for someone looking for only minor eyebrow tweaking. 


I decided to try out the Flower beauty foundation because their prices are really decent. When it comes to skin products I usually vouch for higher end products. Although I think that this product has great coverage, I find it hard to work with. I have relatively dry skin and I found this foundation difficult to apply and blend. 


I am a huge, huge fan of lip products. I am generally pretty loyal to any and all Rimmel lipsticks. But I adore this lip chubby by Flower. This is by far my favourite product of theirs. I find this lip chubby smooth in application and the result to be matte. I do wish they had more of a selection of colours, maybe in time. 


When it comes to mascaras I generally go with whatever is cheapest. But, that hasn't always worked out for me. I think this mascara adds great volume and doesn't clump. This mascara claims to be a 3-1, with a brush that you can manually twist. By twisting the brush you are supposed to achieve three different looks; volumizing, curling, and lengthening. Honestly, I do not see much of a difference between the three setting. But I do think it's worth a try, especially considering the pricing. 


As I previously stated I do not generally cheap out on skin products. But I did want to try out this Flower powder. I do not have much to say about this particular product because it's not very good. It provides very minimal coverage and the application is not very good at all. 

Overall, I find these products to be generally pretty good. Flower beauty offers a lot more products that I am definitely going to give a try. Once I do, I will be sure to create another review on this brand. I will most likely be re-purchasing both the lip chubby and the eyebrow pencil. (Highly recommend!)
