I wanted to share my experience with thrive makeup when I was asked to do my cousins hair and makeup at her death. I chose to use my thrive even though they suggested I use theirs because others seem to run. I used thrive eye makeup and face cream. It looked perfect the next day and afterwards without any touch ups. Covered black bruises and heavy wrinkles. I will never use any other product.

I use Thrive’s liquid lash extensions mascara and I must say I love it. I’m 69 and have used many mascaras but in my experience none can compare to this one. It separates and lengthens my lashes to their max. No clumps or smudges. I have dry eyes and this mascara doesn’t burn my eyes like others and is easy to remove with just my facial cleanser. I highly recommend this mascara.

New customer here, as I’m drawn to clean makeup these days and I love that the company gives back.
Approaching 60, I look for make up that doesn’t settle into my laugh lines :) and the eye brightening sticks and concealer work for me. I’ve seen negative comments about the mascara flaking, but Thrive responded with how to apply it - which is a learning curve - and it works. So, I just ordered more.
The only reason I didn’t give five stars is because of affordability - I will order from them again, but wait for their sales and discounts.

I purchased the Thrive lip gloss and it has a very bad smell. I tried it on and it wasn’t even glossy it was Matt. It smelled liked a 10 year old dried out lipstick. It actually made me want to vomit.

I have the eyebrow liner and the waterproof eyewear liner I got them today and I was so excited and I’m trying to use them and neither one of them has any color to it at all the eyeliner it’s supposed to be green and there’s nothing there’s just a piece of rubber on the end of the tip, and there’s no power to the eyebrow either I want my money back.

I'm curious why the blush size changed. It's so small now. I love their mascara.

I absolutely love the mascara and eyebrow gel. I also have several of the brightening colors which I also just love! Thanks for such a great product.
Every purchase I have made has performed exactly as advertised. I love these products: lip balm, all manner of eyeliner pencils, mascaras, cover sticks and brow fixes. A bonus, the inclusivity embedded in their business model...welcoming and serving the beauty needs and wishes of everyone!
For the past several years, I have been using the headliner lipstick. Recently, when I went to place an order, I was surprised to find out that they have changed the lipstick all together. The headliner lipstick was perfect. It stayed on. It did not bleed. This new formula called, semi permanent smoothing lipstick with a hydrating complex may go on very smoothly, but that also means that it comes off a lot faster. It is not near the quality that the headliner line was. I am voting that you bring back that headliner line. The other issue is that not only was there a change to the consistency of the lipstick but all the colors were changed as well. There is one color that I use consistently because I could count on it never changing colors on my lips. I just can’t figure out why companies have to change some of the most basic things in their products. That is what gets customers to stick with you knowing that you can count on a brand.

I have used Thrive products for years...they are quality, and the brand has a good corporate philosophy. I don't care who models the stuff....so silly to care! As for delivery issues, I have a hard time faulting any business that mails things on time but due to shipper, are delayed.
I love thrive cosmetics!! the eye brightening sticks are a staple of mine. seems a lot of extreme conservatives who pretend to hate cancel culture are trying to cancel them for being inclusive. I am an ACTUAL customer and their products are great!
I never write negative reviews, but i don't want anyone getting sucked in like i did. After seeing tons of ads on Instagram for their mascara i decided to purchase. I also purchased an eye brightening stick and CC cream. First problem is i paid for priority shipping and it still took 8 days to get here. After trying the cosmetics this morning i was SORELY disappointed. Especially with the mascara. Save your money and get Maybelline's Sky High mascara for half the price. The eye brightener creased after just a couple hours. And the CC cream was just a disaster. I will never be taken in by an Instagram ad again.

I’ve used this brand for many years and recommended to many others. Mascara, eye liner, eye brow fix, as well as creams etc. Something has changed drastically?! My eyes are swollen and itchy every time I use their products. I’m very unhappy and now find they’re also another “woke” company. Ladies … what?!!!

I almost purchased products from Thrive until I read the negative comments. The one that solidified it for me was that this is a Left company using men to put on Thrive makeup in their marketing ads. I also read where they have told customers that if they don't like this push to shop elsewhere. I don't understand why companies are doing this. I really wanted to try their products as a woman but I just cannot contribute to their cause. Their response to me below is the very reason why I cannot support them.

Thrives giving partners only donates to the larger non for profit. We have tried for 5 years always getting turned down as we are a smaller non for profit. Not sure why they waste our time when they give to the same people.

Long time customer. I’ve always been pleased but not anymore. My order has been over a week late and going between two ups facilities in a different state. I will no longer use this company.

I have loved Thrive Cosmetics' Defying Gravity line for years. What I loved about the DG Transforming Moisturizer was the beautiful silky texture of the lotion, light golden color and the pleasant citrus smell. The website states that the replacement product or equivalent now is the DG Deep Hydration Moisturizer. Unfortunately, the new rebranded formula is NOT comparable to the old formula. It is thicker, a white opaque cream, a completely different texture and lacks the pleasant aroma that drew me to the old formula. I'm a label reader and it SEEMS the new product is pretty close in ingredients; however, these are two completely different products speaking from a customer's perspective. I cannot express enough how disappointed I am in the company for changing the previously flawless formula. I will not continue buying the new products. I can only hope the company gets enough feedback that they change back to the old formula.

Having spent a fortune on expensive skincare and makeup for over 30 years, I am thrilled with all my purchases from Thrive. My favorites are the mascara, the pressed powder and the eye cream ( which is the best I’ve ever used- immediately took a decade off the appearance of my undereye area) . Can’t wait to try other products from the skincare line.

I ordered the Infinity Waterproof Eyeliner for the first time to see if it really performs as well as the ads indicate. And it does. It lasts really well, goes on smoothly, much better than the ones I usually use. Also I made an error in my order and customer service dealt with it promptly and with no hassles. Very good experience all in all.
