In reply to Laura Faye Berry. Hi Laura, Thank you so much for sharing this! This reply is concerning to me and, like you, I am now even more confused about their use of animal ingredients.

I emailed Flower Beauty to ask if any shades of the Zoom In mascara are vegan, as the ingredients list says that it may contain carmine. Their response was really short: “Hi Laura,

Our products are not vegan.

Thank you for your interest in FLOWER.

Best,
THE FLOWER TEAM”
So now they won’t say that any of their products are vegan? I’m so confused!

I agree. I’m just going to avoid flower beauty. Seems shady and I won’t be buying unless they agree to help make a list of their vegan options. Now I have to go to Sprouts to buy Gabriel’s cosmetics to try them out. Thank you Logical Harmony!!

Thanks for the update! To be honest, I will avoid the brand until this gets totally straightened out. I really don’t want to go to Walmart anyway and i’m tired ot brands sending out false info to the vegan community and seeming not to care.

It’s 2014, anyone who works in customer service or social media for beauty brands should be well versed in the company’s policies and whatever info they have on animal ingredients so it’s all consistent. I don’t care if a brand has three vegan options or thirty, if we can’t get straight or true answers out of them, i’m going to go with another brand.
