The Honest Beauty blushes are very strongly pigmented, but I found the formula to be overly creamy. While this can have moisturization benefits, I prefer a cream blush that is just a normal amount of creamy or on the drier side. This one feels a little bit greasy for me personally. Honest Beauty Magic Beauty Balm is a moisturizing balm housed in a portable compact for when you need to alleviate dry skin on the go. It’s designed to keep you moisturized from head to toe, and can be used on lips, cuticles, hair, elbows, or anywhere that feels dry.

I’m very much digging the Honest Liquid Eyeliner. I haven’t had any issue with the applicator – it’s pointed and allows for precision application. The pigment is intense and the lasting power is strong. It has a very wet formula so you need to allow it to dry fully before you move in with your eye makeup otherwise you risk smudging it. If you’re not careful when applying it can bleed. Like we mentioned above, formulating non-toxic products is a top priority for Honest Beauty, which is why the brand has created a NO List™ — a list of over 2,500 chemicals/materials they choose not to use in their products. The NO List™ is made up of category-specific lists because what causes a chemical/material to pose a risk is dependent on how and where it’s used. In a study published by the manufacturer, it was found that using 2% Brightenyl for 12 weeks controlled skin tone via the inhibition of melanin synthesis as well as the modulation of skin brightness, yellowness, and redness. The Honest Beauty Mascara was rated a 3 on the Think Dirty app, if that is something important to you. So on the clean side for sure, with some room for improvement. But definitely a cleaner mascara. Before that though, I really really liked how this looked on my lashes. Bummed it flaked on me. But I don’t think that will automatically be the case for everyone. I think how your lashes “grip” onto mascara, varies from person to person. No mascara – Primer – One coat mascara – Two coats mascara

I did notice a little bit of smudging on my lower lash line at the end of the day. If you’re someone who needs a smudge-proof mascara, this might not be the one for you. I don’t typically have this issue with a lot of mascaras, but this one did it to me. Applying a setting power underneath my lash line fixed this for me though!

They do not test on animals during product development or production — or allow any third parties to do so with their products. Is Honest Beauty Vegan?

The formula includes plenty of silky emollients and silicones, as well as synthetic mica to diffuse the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, blemishes, pores, and uneven skin tone for a smooth, radiant complexion. Honest Beauty Gel Cleanser feels like thin jelly, which I have nothing against, but combined with the fact that there is not much cleansing action and mine had a slightly off-putting scent, I did not enjoy the Honest Beauty cleanser. This is coming from a beauty aficionado who can be very forgiving of gentle cleansers that don’t even have any cleansing agents in the ingredients, as they tend to be filled with lots of great plant herbs and extracts that are skin-beneficial. But the Honest Beauty one is not a product I’d personally buy again. There’s just a lot of other cleansers out there at the same price point that I’d prefer to get over Honest Beauty’s. Diglucosyl gallic acid is a synthetic molecule that’s activated by the skin’s microbiome and functions as an antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and tyrosinase inhibitor. Tyrosinase is the key enzyme involved in the production of melanin (skin pigment). So by inhibiting this enzyme, diglucosyl gallic acid can help to reduce dark spots and promote a more even skin tone.

Honest Beauty Vitamin C Radiance Serum Lastly, this balm features Mondo grass, which has been shown to strengthen the skin barrier and increase skin hydration. There’s no such thing as a miracle treatment when it comes to combating age, though vitamin C comes pretty close. It’s a powerful antioxidant that protects your skin from environmental free radical damage. Unfortunately, as the day went on, I did experience some serious flaking with this mascara. It didn’t happen every single time I wore it, but it did happen. I find that cheaper mascaras tend to flake on me more often than higher end, not sure why.

However, what may trigger a bit of concern and make some users shy away from this product line, is the fact that the brand has had its fair share of court cases and allegations that it gives fake ingredients promises. But still, seems like they managed to resolve most of their legal complaints from their clients.
