Review summary

Created with AI, based on recent reviews

Evaluating 61 reviews, most reviewers were somewhat happy with their experience overall. Many customers are highly satisfied with the quality of the products, particularly the mascara, which is frequently praised for its lengthening and volumizing effects without clumping or smudging. People appreciate that the mascara is long-lasting, easy to remove with water, and gentle on sensitive eyes. Reviewers also express satisfaction with other products like eyeshadows, blush sticks, and eyebrow pencils, noting their natural look and ease of application. The company's mission and use of clean, vegan products are also frequently highlighted as positive aspects. However, some customers experienced significant issues with order fulfillment, including long shipping times, missing items, and orders not being shipped at all. There is also considerable dissatisfaction with customer service, with many reporting unresponsiveness to emails and chat inquiries, and difficulties in resolving issues like refunds or replacements. A few people also mentioned concerns about product quality, such as eyeliner smudging, lipstick being waxy, and packaging breaking.

I have used their products and was satisfied. Ordered new products. Never came. I reached out - and they tell you they will reply in 24 houses. It took more than 48. They offered to reship - which was fine - but when I confirmed all information - they miraculously ran out of the product. A SCAM. Buy another product.

Actual Customer

I’ve tried their foundation, coverup, mascara and lip products. All have been high quality.

Looks like folks are trying to punish Thrive for including men in their ads. I guess these haters don’t’ remember guys wearing makeup in the 70s and 80s? Get a life!

I won't support woke liberal crazy…

I won't support woke liberal crazy people who use men putting on makeup in their marketing campaigns, they even posted a man on FB for Mother's Day! We know it's liberal propaganda and a depopulation plan, who wants to mate with some freak who doesn't know what gender he wants to be, and Thrive is alienating women to follow this disturbing agenda. I returned my recent purchase after they told everyone on facebook who was upset to kick rocks! They accuse of being bigots, but really, we just want to be celebrated for being women, not homogenized into queer, sexless freaks. Get woke, go broke! You keep saying you're going to delete comments, are you so dumb to think you actually have control over this website??

This company went woke & is having MEN put on makeup for their marketing. Talk about a slap in the face to women. DO NOT BUY THEIR PRODUCTS. They clearly don't respect or value real biological females. And then they block you/delete your comments. They can have free speech, but we cant apparently. Welcome to clown world 2023.

I ordered my first order on 04/13/2023 and purchased 2 hydrating tint balms. It offered lip balm treatment and when I clicked on decline this offer it added it on and I had no way to remove it. I spent $20 extra that I did not plan on spending. I am not happy. I don't want the lip treatment. I only want the 2 tints and a refund for the extra $20.

I purchased Thrive eye shadow pencil

I purchased Thrive eye shadow pencil, a liner , and falsie mascara. What a waiste of my hard earned money.
The black liner is not well pigmented and black is a deep gray. The eyeshadow pencil is OK. I could have got the same quality and color at Walmart
.what concernes me is the mascara. Both if my eyes have sowlen after using this flakey . I have used Benefits brand for years, but have received samples with the purchase of different foundations and none have given me any type of reaction. I am not one to have breakout of any kind.. Thrive mascara has caused swelling and blurred vision in both eyes. I am trying to see if the swelling will go down as an emergency outpatient visit will cost me $500.00
Thrive you have to do better..
I tossed my money into the trash and I am not pleased at all.

I made a first purchase

I made a first purchase, signed up for emails in order to save 10 percent BUT fine print only allows it with 50.00 purchase. So customers are basically forced to spend 50 for any small purchase when just wanting to try out product. That’s just wrong and bad marketing for consumers. Plus their products are exclusive to them so we have no choice but to buy from them directly. Will not purchase again. I didn’t need two mascaras,

Hi Zeida! Thank you so much for this feedback. We're sorry to hear that the 10% off $50+ welcome code is not a satisfying offer. This is definitely something we can revisit or reconsider for other options in the future! Please know that we do offer FULL refunds within 60-days of purchase as well if you did not need two mascaras. In addition, we have promotions and sales each month that may be of better value to you. You can always reach out to us at help@thrivecausemetics.com if you need any help or more info.

Not worth the price!

The price you pay for these products are not worth it. The mascara made me look like I had spider lashes. Shipping times are too long as well. Won’t be purchasing again.

My blood is boiling

My blood is boiling! I had to send back an order and was in touch with "Zoe" from Thrive. She told me to "email her when the order is received and she will send me a return label". I did as she asked and got an automated response from "Zoe's" email. I emailed again the next day, still the generic response!!!! THESE PEOPLE ARE CROOKS!!

Credit card thief at Thrive!!!

Someone from this company in Bellevue, WA used my card to order food at Wingstop in Tukwila, WA. I ordered product yesterday and got a notice from my bank today. I am in California and the only place I used my card in Washington was to order from Thrive. I will NEVER order from them again and advise you all to never order from them either unless you want to go through the hassle of canceling a card. I hate thieves.

Cheap products

I really wanted to support this company and their mission, however their products are similar to any cheap drugstore product but three times the price. I emailed customer service regarding the quality and never heard back, they didnt allow me to leave a review on their website regarding my purchase either.

Would give zero if it would let me! Customer shipping and Thrives is just a stupid brand!!!!
I've tried to place orders several times but they've all been cancelled for no apparent reason; if you're not selling your stuff, shut your brand and go to hell.
