Flower cosmetics by Drew Barrymore

Lets be honest here, the main reason I got interested on these products is because I love Drew. I picked up some products from Flower cosmetics and I got them at Walmart. Flower cosmetics takes pride on their products containing luxury ingredients, being made in the US and not being tested on animals. The packaging is very cute. I love the white with rose gold details. Price is pretty average for a drug store makeup. Here are the products that I bought.
Face products:
I'm not really in to foundations. I mainly use powder (L'oreal True Match Mineral) but I'm always open to trying liquid foundation. I have never found a perfect match when it comes to the shade. I also don't need a lot of coverage anyways. This Flower foundation is actually a perfect match with my skin tone. It applies very smoothly and the coverage is about medium to full so I don't really have to apply too much. It also leaves an airbrush finish and the blush stayed on all day. The only con is that it makes my T zone a little bit oily. I tried both the Flower loose powder and the L'oreal True Match Mineral powder on top of it and still did the same thing. It just needs touching up on the T zone every few hours, not a big deal.
The blush/bronzer combo is one of my favorites. The one I got is called Shimmering Goddess. It's matte (no shimmer at all) and very pigmented. It will literally last you a life time.

Lip products:
As expected from Drew, who always have gorgeous lips, her lipsticks and lip crayons are amazing. I only got the matte ones. Even though they leave a true matte finish, they don't make your lips dry and they still feel creamy.

Nails:
Beige Beauty - I only bought 1 Flower nail polish. I wasn't going to get one because I don't really need anymore nail polish but I saw one that was a very uncommon shade. I don't have anything like it. Its not yellow, its not khaki, kind of in between sand and camel color. Sadly, the formula is really bad. I have tons of nail polish, even 50 cents ones and I have to say that this is one or the worse nail polish I have ever tried. I had to put on at least 5 coats to get a decent opacity and still was streaky. By the time I put my top coat, the polish was already too thick on my nails so it didn't really look great. Maybe its just the shade that I bought. Maybe the other shades have better formula.
