Drew Barrymore's lashes look long and lush, thanks to this $12 mascara from her Flower Beauty brand
Drew Barrymore is everywhere you look. She's hosting The Drew Barrymore Show, she's creating hilarious videos on TikTok, she's in a bunch of our favorite movies and she's in our makeup bags by way of her beauty brand, Flower Beauty.
If you haven't tried Drew's approachable, cruelty-free brand, around since 2013, you're missing out. Not only has it won multiple awards, but it prides itself on fun and inclusivity — one of the brand's main messages is that "beauty is for everybody." Want to try it out? Barrymore herself uses Flower Beauty's Dream Warrior Volumizing Mascara, and at $12, it's a lot easier on the budget than other celeb-backed beauty faves.
Lengthen and define in just a few swipes with this long-wearing mascara.
Barrymore recently shared an Instagram video of herself applying the mascara while she's a passenger in a car. She called this impressive act "an art form," and we'd have to agree. She expertly applies the mascara, navigating literal bumps in the road, and ends up with enviably full, long lashes.
Nothing makes your eyes pop quite like a good mascara (though we'll always recommend a good eye cream and brow gel too). Dream Warrior Volumizing Mascara is formulated to give lashes weightless volume and length that's free of clumps. According to a Flower Beauty study, 94% of users saw instantly lifted lashes after applying the mascara — not too shabby.
Barrymore isn't the only one who loves this mascara. More than 300 Amazon shoppers have given the formula a five-star rating.
One happy shopper called it a "winner" and shared: "This has a great brush — it coats and separates lashes like mascara is supposed to! I'm a bit of a mascara connoisseur — this is one of the best I've found recently."
"My new favorite mascara!" raved another. "I love that I can put on multiple coats without getting too clumpy. This is the first product I've purchased from this line of makeup and it inspired me to try other Flower products."
A third fan explained: "Nearly all of the Flower Beauty products are fantastic, but I especially love this mascara. [It] makes my lashes look incredibly full and lasts throughout my day. I used to get black smudges under my eyes with my old mascara as the day wore on, but not with this product!"
"Best mascara I have ever used," said a final five-star reviewer. They added, "I bought seven of the most popular mascaras, and this is the No. 1 best ever."
While some reviewers called the formula "nothing special," few had major complaints. "This is very good for a drugstore mascara," said one thoughtful fan. "It gives great volume and length with just one swipe. However ... the brush is large. So it might not be the best mascara for someone like me, i.e. a Southeast Asian with very fine lashes and eyes that are a little on the smaller side."
"Chemotherapy left me with very thin lashes," said a grateful shopper. "This mascara is a game-changer. Thickens and elongates without clumping."
