An Honest Review of Follain Beauty

Sharing a review of a clean beauty brand and retailer, Follain.

Follain. Clean Beauty Brand

Last month, I noticed I needed to do some stocking up on some makeup that was running low and I was also itching to add in some new products into my routine, as I’ve been trying to “up my skincare game” if you will!

If you’ve been following along for some time, you know that clean/nontoxic beauty is very important to me. I wrote a post about how to make the switch to clean beauty a few years ago (you can read it here), if you’re looking to give nontoxic beauty a try but don’t know where to start.

Over the years, I’ve come across several different places to shop for clean beauty and one of my favorite places to shop is Follain.

I love that they have their own affordable line of clean beauty products along with other renowned clean beauty brands. I have sensitive skin and their products are free of harsh chemicals and fragrances which is AMAZING!

One of the brands I stocked up on was ILIA which is my absolute favorite makeup brand — plus the packaging is just lovely. I got the bronzing powder in the shade ‘Dawn’ and the eye tint in the color ‘Glaze’.

Follain was kind enough to share a special discount code with you all to try. You can use the code EMILYG15 for 15% off your purchase.

Within the last several months, I’ve gotten to try their moisturizer and eye cream and most recently added their facial toning mist, firming serum and hand cream to my routine. I also tried a new-to-me brand, Saie. Their Dew Balm in the color ‘Rosy Gold‘ is just lovely! A little bit goes a long way.

Follain Firming Serum | Hand Cream | Toning Mist

I’ve been using the newest additions consistently for about 3 weeks and I’ve already seen improvements on my skin’s texture. It’s much more hydrated and smooth — I especially love applying the toning mist mid-day when I need a boost, and doing a gentle massage with the eye cream along with brining the hand cream whever I go, ha!

Honestly, I only use the moisturizer once or twice a week, as I feel my skin responds better to facial oils. But it’s great when my skin needs that bit of extra hydration! Everyone’s skin is different though, so this may work better for your skin.

Another product I LOVE and recommend if you’re looking for a boost of hydration is OSEA Undaria Algae Body Oil — my gosh, it smells like a spa! Even my mom tried it and fell in love with it too. It’s hydrating, non-greasy and feels like a luxurious self care moment.

If you’re looking to try out clean beauty or explore some new brands, definitely check out Follain! Don’t forget, you can get 15% off your purchase with the code EMILYG15.

Trendy items aren’t my thing but there are ways Trendy items aren’t my thing but there are ways to have fun with trends of course!
