Today we’re trying out 14 products from Flower Beauty’s line. It’s cruelty-free and some of their products are vegan. This brand is supposed to compare to prestige brands, and they’ve also won a lot of awards, so I’m pretty excited to see what it’s all about. I’ll let you know what I think of each of them and if any would be dupes for any high-end products!
The Skinny Microbrow Pencil
$10
First up is their Skinny Microbrow Pencil and at first glance, I knew it looked familiar. It is almost an exact copy of Fenty Beauty’s Brow MVP, I mean exactly. The formula felt the same and the brush is the same and it’s half of the cost! This is an absolute must-have.
Product Description: The Skinny Microbrow Pencil creates fine, hair-like strokes for natural, defined eyebrows. This ultra-precise, ultra-slim brow pencil is ideal for all brow types and provides precise control to easily spot-fill sparse areas and sculpt for the most natural looking brows.

A vegan and gluten-free pencil that is formulated with shea butter to nourish brows.

Get Real Serum Foundation
$15
This was my first time with a serum foundation. It says medium to buildable coverage, nice glass bottle. It was very runny, I used a microfiber sponge to apply it to one side and swiped it one with a flat foundation brush. It feels extremely weightless, very natural with good coverage. This would be perfect for those who struggle with cakey or flaky after foundation issues. It did exactly what it says.
