FLOWER BEAUTY: LIP PRODUCTS REVIEW

- 0 Comments0 Comments

In today's post I'm going to be sharing my review on 3 different lip products I've tried from Flower Beauty. Enjoy!

Petal Pout Lip Color // $8.99



I have tried so many different lipsticks through the years - especially from the drugstore - but this formula is one of my absolute favorites. It wears all day long, which can be hard to find with traditional lipstick bullet formulas. It has a matte finish, but is so comfortable on the lips. I would say its most comparable to an old favorite of mine, the Clinique Long Lasting Soft Matte Lipstick, which has a very similar formula and wear time (unfortunately Clinique discontinued this a few months ago). The shade I have is called Berry-More which is so cute since the brand was created by Drew Barrymore. 

The packaging also feels so much more luxurious and high-end than any other product from the same price range and above. This has been one of my most used lipsticks over the past few months!

HydraSilk Ultimate Lip Butter // $9.99


 Whenever I wear red lipstick I typically only ever used a long-lasting matte formula. However, I've been wanting to try a more comfortable and hydrating one that is better for everyday use. I bought the shade Poppy Petal, which is a bright red with orange undertones. The formula doesn't last anywhere near the amount of time liquid lipsticks last, or even the Petal Pout Lip Color that I mentioned previously. So, if you eat or drink anything, you will eventually need to reapply it. It has a moisturizing balm-like finish that feels weightless on the lips, but has the pigmentation of a regular lipstick. With just one swipe, you will have full opacity. Sometimes with more hydrating lip products, it can bleed outside of the lip line or smudge all over your face if you aren't careful - however, I haven't found that to happen while wearing this. The only thing I would be cautious of is making sure the color doesn't transfer on your teeth after first applying it. If you're looking for an fun pop of color for the summer, then I highly recommend this one! 

Shade Shown: Poppy Petal

Galaxy Glaze Holographic Liquid Lip Color // $9.99



 This is by far the most beautiful lip gloss I ever used. It is full of iridescence and sparkle that can be worn on its own or paired on top of any lip color to completely transform it. I love to layer this gloss on top of the previous lipstick I mentioned, the HydraSilk Ultimate Lip Butter in the shade "Poppy Petal" to turn it into a prismatic red. The shade I have is called Molten which has red and gold glitter infused in it, but there is no gritty feeling once its on the lips like other glitter-based glosses can be. My mom was the first to try it in the mauve shade Milky Way which is full of silver and pink glitter. She's been through at least 3 tubes by now - so there's proof as to how amazing this product is!

Overall from what I've learned about Flower Beauty, I really admire the story and ethics behind the brand. I briefly mentioned earlier that Drew Barrymore is the creator of the company and usually when it comes to celebrity makeup brands they tend to have higher prices just because of whose name is attached to it. Flower emphasizes consumer accessibility by making high-end products available at a low price. They just expanded their brand from being a Walmart exclusive to also being at Ulta now, so be sure to check it out! I have really loved everything I've tried from Flower so far and will definitely be purchasing from their brand more in the future and sharing my reviews here! Stay tuned for a review on their mascaras & concealer I've been using!

"party 4 u" by Charli xcx // Song Review

-
Image
"party 4 u" by Charli xcx is a euphoric anthem of unrequited love, a song full of glittering synths and raw emotion. She sings about throwing an entire party with the hopes that just the one person she wants to see the most will be there - a very Gatsby theme that she translated so well into this song. It is featured on her 2020 album how i'm feeling now , which was largely created in isolation and released in the thick of the pandemic in May of that year. She worked with her frequent collaborator, A.G. Cook , on this song and the rest of the album. By the time the pandemic started, they only had about half of the album finished, so they decided to go with a DIY approach while finishing the rest of how i'm feeling now .  "party 4 u" had a much longer history by that point though, as Charli said in an interview with Apple Music. "This is the oldest song on the album. For myself and A. G., this song has so much life and story," Charli said. "We...

"Denial Is A River" by Doechii // Song Review

-
Image
Doechii 's "Denial Is A River" is a sharply written story of her deeply personal struggles she has faced throughout her life, especially over the past few years. All while doing so, she also incorporates so much of her signature humor within it too. She is such a dynamic and captivating storyteller, one that is simultaneously very funny and clever, but also very real and honest.  In an interview with  Rolling Stone , Doechii opened up about the time in her life that inspired this song. "With 'Denial Is a River,' I felt some fear there because it's really me being extremely literal and vulnerable about my situation. It is a very vulnerable thing, especially as an artist," she said. "Just a little backstory, I went through a period where I was afraid to be vulnerable in my music, which is odd for me because that’s all I usually do. I was saying to my engineer, 'I don't want to talk about my feelings because right now all I feel is negativi...

ARIANA GRANDE GOD IS A WOMAN FRAGRANCE REVIEW

-
Image
When all is said and done, you'll believe God is a Woman!  I absolutely love all of the  fragrances   Ariana Grande  has released over the years, so when I found out that she was coming out with another I was so excited! Her song " God is a Woman " is also so iconic and one of my all-time favorites, so that made me look forward to it even more. I have been using it consistently for several months so I will able to give the most in-depth review I possibly can of this product. In the United States , God is a Woman  is sold exclusively at Ulta in three sizes; 1 oz for $45, 1.7 oz for $55, and 3.4 oz for $65. A travel size bottle is also available for $24. This pricing is consistent throughout the rest of Ariana's fragrances, so if you were looking to purchase another scent this is the range to expect. It is also available internationally at select retailers. God is a Woman  is cruelty free, 100% vegan and made with clean ingredients that are 91% naturally der...

SAFIYA NYGAARD x COLOURPOP COLLECTION REVIEW 🦇♥

For my first post of  the new year, I wanted to share my thoughts on one of my favorite makeup releases, the Safiya Nygaard x Colourpop collection ! Safiya is one of my favorite YouTubers and Colourpop is my favorite makeup brand, so this is a really exciting collaboration!  Safiya consistently makes a variety of really high quality and interesting videos that mainly focus on beauty and fashion. I admire how much time and research she puts into what she does, all of the work that is put into these videos really shows in the finished product. If you haven't watched her channel before, I really can't recommend it enough!  In August 2017, she started a series called " bad makeup science ", which is the basis of this new Colourpop lipstick collection. There are 6 lipstick shades that correlate with a shade she created in one of her videos. You can check out the playlist of videos that inspired her collection here . I recently re-watched the whole series again...

My World 2.0 by Justin Bieber // 15 Year Anniversary Album Review

-

The release of Justin Bieber 's My World 2.0 was a defining moment in pop culture history and signified the birth of one of the biggest phenomenon's the music industry has ever seen. My World 2.0  had an undeniable impact on music trends of the early 2010s and truly solidified him as the voice of a new generation. His career took off at lightning speed, propelling a then 16-year-old boy from a small town in Canada to a global sensation overnight.  My World 2.0  was Justin's first full length album, following the release of his debut EP called My World a few months prior in late 2009. Looking back on the release of My World 2.0 15 years later, I'm reminded of just how clear it was, even way back in 2010, that Justin was such a mega talent that had such a bright career ahead of him. To have a vocal range and an undeniable stage presence like he had at that age is so rare and a talent that has only continued to grow in the years to follow.  Justin's origin story i...
