I’m so excited to share my no-nonsense review of Flamingo Estate. I tried their natural candles, body wash and hand wash in various scents. First off, I’m impressed by how clean and high-quality the ingredients are, the gooorgeous sustainable packaging and incredible scents.

Flamingo Estate is the slow living home of all of our dreams. It’s an orchard and pleasure garden on a California hillside overlooking Los Angeles where hundreds of plants are grown. If I didn’t have to do this thing called a career, this is the life I would live – the slow life.

I tried Flamingo Estate Manuka Rich Cream

As a skincare blogger, I was excited that Flaming Estate finally came out with their own cream. I wasn’t sure if this was a face cream or body lotion, but it seems like more of an all-purpose cream designed to be used anywhere that needs more moisture. At 2.5 oz only I would probably use it up handful of uses if I used it as a body moisturizer, so I like to use it as a spot treatment. I had a burn on my finger right where I put the cream in the photo above, so I used to help it heal faster. The Manuka Rich Cream is definitely rich, but it’s not heavy. It feels like rich whipped butter in my opinion and has the most luxurious creamy texture! There’s a slight floral herbal scent that’s super unique and I can’t quite put my finger on it (turns out the scent comes from Australian Wattle Flowers and Manuka). The Manuka honey is sourced from Australia and New Zealand and there’s also hemp, lanolin, shea butter and calendula that makes it a super soothing and calming cream.

Price: $48 for 2.5 oz

I tried Flamingo Estate Candles

I love that every Flamingo Estate candle I’ve tried takes me on a unique olfactory journey! If you’re looking for a well-made candle with a unique, atypical scent, the Roma Tomato Heirloom Candle is a must try.

Their non-toxic candles are made of:

• Non-GMO soy wax
• cotton wicks
• essential oils + fragrance oils

The candles do smell more natural than they do synthetic, so I would guess that there is more usage of essential oils than fragrance oils.

The Roma Heirloom Tomato Candle is meant to transport you to Sicilian evenings.

I just happened to visit Sicily for the first time this year for a spontaneous couple’s weekend, so I am thoroughly savoring this now nostalgic candle.

This is not a sweet tomato at all. I find it gives an herbaceous, dark scent that makes it entirely unisex if not masculine. It has notes of:

• Tomato Vine
• Black Pepper
• Holy Basil

I love their beautiful deep green glass vessels that are thick-rimmed and fully recyclable.

Flamingo Estate candles also seem to burn slower and last a little longer.

I also tried their Adriatic Muscatel Sage candle which is a deeply camphorous scent that I find very strong. It’s a super dark sage in my opinion and leans very masculine! I love that it has four kinds of sage grown in their very own garden – Hummingbird Sage, Pitcher Sage, Black Sage, Purple Sage, and White Sage.

I tried Flamingo Estate Body Wash

This all-natural body wash has no harsh cleansing or foaming agents and is filled with six times more essential oils than a typical body wash! I love that the ingredients are super clean and many are organic. It’s made only of oils, like Olive, Meadowfoam and Babassu, thickened with natural Sea Salt, and pure essential oils of Rosemary, Sage, Lavender, and Eucalyptus. It still has a thick honey-like consistency and feels so moisturizing on my skin while giving a soft, gentle lather to cleanse properly. The aroma is just incredible — soooo fragrant and immersive! I feel like I’m bathing in an herbal garden! The aluminum packaging is eco-friendly, sturdy and I don’t have to worry about it breaking if I accidentally drop the bottle in shower. The only downside is the high-end pricing, BUT you do get a whopping 17 oz.

I tried Flamingo Estate Hand Soap

This is one of my all time favorite natural hand washes! Their hand soap is very similar to their body wash and has the same consistency and texture. It’s a Castile hand soap with a honey-like gel texture that feels amazing when I wash my hands. The smell is super fragrant and lingers even after I’ve dried my hands. I also tried their Roma Heirloom Tomato Hand Soap and it smells just like a tomato garden! The packing is entirely different in that it comes in a dark amber glass bottle.
