Anyone use Thrive Cosmetics

SurferWife · ‎12-12-2010

Their ads are splashed all over my Instagram so I'm curious to know if any of you QVC beauties use any of the products? If so, which ones are your favorites? Which ones weren't so great. I'd love to hear your opinions! Off to work I go...I'll read everyone's responses this evening as I enjoy my Aloha Friday evening glass of Pinot Noir.

I love Thrive cosmetics in spite of the fact that you can only order them from their website. I am a frugal but I do splurge on their makeup because it is that superior. I buy their mascara, eyeliner, eye shadow/brightener and foundation regularly.

Their mascara (liquid lash extensions) is hands-down the best I have every tried and I have paid a fortune trying every brand know to man (and even sold on QVC). I have eyes where makeup tends to wear off fast, so I could use even the most expensive waterproof mascara but within an hour or two it was all flaked off. Same with eyeliner, no matter what I used (including liquid waterproof liner with primers ) I'd have racoon eyes within an hour. Their eye brightener shadow pencils are creamy and go on so smoothly that there's no tugging.

But Thrive mascara truly lasts all day for me which is a first. Same with their eyeliner. I know I sound like a commercial but I am that big of a fan.

@busymom22 isn't their mascara what is termed a tubing mascara? I think I saw that somewhere.

I have used several of their products and have been pleased with most of them. I like their mascara but right now I'm using something different. I also have used their eye brightening sticks and color sticks. I found the lipsticks to be just okay.

I have been using a color stick in Tessa which is a deep berry for blush for the last year or so. I have an olive complexion and the color works great with my skin tone....looks like a very natural blush on me.

Yes it is a tubing mascara. I've tried other tubing mascaras but they flaked unlike Thrive's.

I love their mascara (Liquid Lash Extension). It is the best! I also really like their semipermanent brow gel for my graying brows. It lasts well and helps tame them. I just ordered their waterproof eyeliner pen since there is free shipping today only and a coupon code (BESTMASCARA). I'm excited to try it.

Oh, I'm so glad I opened this thread. I, too, have been curious about their make-up. I'm going to try some!

I have the Thrive mascara but I what I use it for is a top coat, over other mascaras. My lashes are rather thin and Thrive is what I'd call a wet mascara and doesn't do much for me. As a top coat, however, it is great. When I layer it over other, non waterproof mascara, it seals them and they never flake, staying put until I wash them off. I also use it on my bottom lashes since it never smudges.

I tried their retractable eye pencils, not impressed, one broke as soon as I opened it and they had little staying power. I have a friend who was not impressed with their mascara. Their CS was very nice and sent me a new pencil to replace the broken one.

@SurferWife My #1 GD uses Thrive products. She's an RN and she and several of her nurse friends swear by the Liquid Lash and Lash Lengthener. You know the long hours they work (usually with masks) yet she still looks beautiful at the end of the day. She bought me a mascara and I like it a lot and will buy it for myself.
