Flower Beauty E.E Erase Everything Foundation

Flower Beauty calls their new foundation Ultimate and they aren't wrong. The new E.E Erase Everything Ultimate Foundation is so good.

Erase Everything smooth and fills in pores and  has a soft focus look thanks to light diffusing pigments. The   coverage  is semi sheer and buildable with a  non dry , soft matte finish.  I loved how well it sank into pores especially. I've been having issues with that lately. My large pores seem bigger than ever ( possibly thanks to my new magnifying mirror, yikes) and this filled them in right off and stayed that way.

The wear time was fabulous. Applied at 8AM by 5PM it still looked  good. A couple hours later, it was still pretty good, far better than most foundations I use and love. I did do a touch up with powder at the T Zone at lunchtime and a little under eye work but that was it. The nose had some breakdown thanks to all the oil. Nothing new there.

Flower says it's lightly hydrating and I can say it isn't a chalky or dry matte . It feels light and easy on skin.

 The foundation comes in a tube with an attached brush for application. The formula is on the thicker side but is very creamy and blends. I still used my fingers mostly but the brush works well too. It's preference.

Flower Beauty  E.E Erase Everything Foundation comes in four shades  Sheer Tint, Porcelain Tint, Ivory Tint, Buff Tint, Honey Tint ( Ivory Tint shown)
and is $ 12.98 at Walmart and Walmart.com

Flower Beauty Makeup Cases & Brushes

 Do you love a good train case ? Crazy question ? Not if you're a beauty gal. I love them and have several, more than I need most likely but new , nice ones are always popping up.

For  gifting or getting, Flower has a new line of makeup cases out including a  train case.  All are done in a bold flower print in either pink tones or blue tones.

The case has slots at the top for makeup brushes and a full open bottom for everything else. There is a rose goldtone logo plaque and zipper pull.  Measurements are 5.75 H x10.25 W x 5.5 D.

If you do happen to be thinking of gifting this , you might want to tuck some new brushes into those slots too. Flower has you covered there as well with five brushes for face , eye and lips .  The brushes are synthetic and I have to say seem to be good quality. Not easy to find at the mass market level. A good brush is a must, and if you can grab them well priced, even  better. Flower brushes range from 6.98 to 12.98 .

Flower is exclusive to Wal Mart and the Train Case is $18.98 , Ultimate Lip & Concealer Brush is 6.98

Flower Beauty- Skincognito Stick Foundation & BB Cream

^{Yesterday was Flower Beauty's Lip Service Lip Butter. Today it's the Stick Foundation and BB Cream.} 

^{One of the exciting finds was that they have a stick foundation.  I love stick foundations and they can be hard to find.}

One of my holy grail foundations used to be L'Oreal Quick Stick. Man, that was good and I stockpiled when they dc'd it. Of course in the intervening years I've found many more great foundations but not many sticks. And can I say how much I miss Max Factor's Pan Stick ? But I have a supply of that too.

^{There are a few out there , Tom Ford makes an amazing one, but at $ 78 it's not within easy reach . Bobbi Brown's is great and a bit better priced.} 
 

 
^{As far as I know, though, there are no mass markets ones out there . Until now.} 

^{Flower's stick foundation  offers medium,  buildable coverage. It has a  soft  feel on skin but is also feels emollient.  Due to the oil ingredients that make it emollient,  it unfortunately won't work for my skin.  Ingredients include corn , cottonseed and castor oils as well as shea butter.} 
However, it is nice and if you have normal to dry skin then it might work for you. Sticks like these make great take alongs for easy touch ups in addition to all over use.

The BB Cream  is a nice  addition to the BB scene as it gives good coverage, something often missing in drugstore brands.  It covers flaws, evens tone and is lightly moisturizing but not heavy .   It is missing SPF but other than that  performs as well as some of my higher end brands.

 Bonus points too, for the  upmarket looking packaging on the BB. 
 
My shade is BB2 in the BB Cream( $ 12.98) , SF2 in the Foundation( $ 6.98).
