Review: Flormar 2x DUO chrome nail enamel

I bought this nail polish while I was out shopping last week and as with most Flormar polishes it is great quality, dries quite fast and is opaque in 2 coats. It was more expensive at 4.90€ than their regular range which is 2.90€ but it is still cheaper than most drugstore polishes and the quality outweighs most other similar priced brands.

I have the colour DC06 which is a lovely purple that changes to a greyish colour with a hint of mossy green, the duo chrome isn't that dramatic but it does add another dimension to the nails. It is available in a few other colours but this was the only one that really took my fancy at the moment. I think it will probably look even better with a matte topcoat but I haven't tried it yet.

Review: Flormar x10 sculpting lengthening mascara Vs Loreal extra volume collagen

So.. another amazing beauty find from Flormar cosmetics. Usually i only pick mascara from brands that i know well or have been recommended by somebody. With flormar being a brand new to me i was a little apprehensive to try a mascara from them but as i was so impressed with the nail varnish and with the mascara only costing 4.99€ !!! i didn't have much to lose.


The first thing i noticed about this mascara was how similar the packaging was to the Loreal collagen mascara, in fact apart from the branding the packaging is identical. ( the camera angle makes the flormar mascara look bigger but it isn't)


And the brushes? yep identical, the loreal brush is slightly more tapered at the tip, the flormar brush has more product left on it making it look denser but to the naked eye they are the same.



So onto performance, my loreal mascara had run out so i could only photograph the new flormar mascara, here i am without any eye make up, i have not curled my lashes as i wanted true representation of the product.


With one coat


With 2 coats

I Love, Love, Love this mascara. For a measly 4.99€ it is probably the best value for money mascara i have ever used, it stays on all day, does not flake and holds a curl ( if you curl your lashes obviously).

I chose the regular lengthening formula but they also offer the same mascara in a waterproof version and a volumising ( opposed to lengthening).

To compare with the Loreal volume collagen mascara i would say they are very similar the loreal mascara tends to start flaking after about 6 hours wear though and for the price of 12.44€ i would rather by 3 of the Flormar mascara´s.

You can buy online from the flormar website here UK website or if you are in Spain you can buy from a flormar shop.
