Pixi Beauty Summer Must-Haves

October 19, 2020 | Beauty, Pixi Beauty | 7 Comments »

I know that it’s no longer Summer, but I’m still wearing these products regularly and just had to share them. Funny story. When I first received this palette I initially thought it was an eyeshadow palette. I remember thinking that these were some huge pans. Then I thought it would make a nice face palette too. Turns out that it is a face palette. But I went ahead and used it on my eyes too because I thought it made for a nice subtle yet glowy look.

The Pixi Beauty Summer Must-Haves include the Summer Glow Palette which contains some really pretty bronze shades and some gorgeous highlighters. The Large Lash Mascara has been my go-to mascara lately. The wand is a little chunky, but it wasn’t messy or difficult to work with. It did help my lashes appear fuller and longer and didn’t smudge. The LipLift Max is a nice nude gloss that did plump up my lips a bit. At least the bottom lip looks a bit fuller. I liked the cooling sensation too. This is a huge plus during the Summer. The Endless Shade Sticks are creamy and nicely pigmented. These are so convenient and also work nicely as a base.

You can see the Summer Glow Palette, Large Lash Mascara, and LipLift Max in action below.

Overall, I’m loving everything! You will definitely see some of these on my yearly favorites post. I haven’t put the palette and mascara down since I received them. Seriously, look at that glow! Sometimes when I’m in a rush I just use this one palette for everything. It makes for a nice wearable look.

Have you tried any of these products? What are your Summer must-haves?

Pixi Beauty 20 Years Of Glow

January 27, 2020 | Beauty, Pixi Beauty | 20 Comments »

Pixi Beauty recently celebrated 20 years and kindly sent over some of their best selling products to help celebrate. I’ll list each product below complete with direct links, pricing, and swatches.

Glow Mist $15.00

The Glow Mist is a nifty all in one product. You can use it to hydrate your skin, set your makeup, or to refresh throughout the day.

Glow Tonic $4.00 – $29.00

I’m not surprised to see the Glow Tonic included with the best sellers. It’s easily the first item to come to mind when I think of Pixi Beauty. For those who don’t know, the Glow Tonic is a toner to be used after cleansing. It exfoliates and purifies the skin with glycolic acid. I apply this only once a week for a light exfoliation. I’m guessing if you don’t have rosacea or sensitive skin you might be able to use it more often.

Rose Ceramide Cream $24.00

The Rose Ceramide Cream is an ultra-rich cream infused with ceramides and rose oil. It’s a really nice moisturizer and the packaging is just too pretty!

MatteLast Liquid Lip $14.00

This is the MatteLast Liquid Lip in the shade Berry Beauty. I’ve tried a few of their MatteLast Liquid Lip products and love them. They apply nicely and are fairly comfortable. I love the citrus scent. The Berry Beauty appears to have a more purplish/mauve hue on their website, but as you can tell from my swatches it’s actually more of a deep red. I’m not mad at it, but I can see how that might be misleading.

LipLift Max $14.00

The LipLift Max is a product I haven’t tried yet. It’s a peptide infused lip plumper that claims to nourish as it enhances. This is the shade Petal Ice. I didn’t bother to swatch it because it didn’t really show up on camera. It’s a pretty sheer pink gloss that has a minty scent.

Endless Silky Eye Pen $12.00

The Endless Silky Eye Pen is indeed silky! It glided onto my skin effortlessly. This is the shade BlackNoir, but they have many more to choose from. Including a gold shade! And they’re waterproof!

Eye Reflections Shadow Palette $24.00

The Eye Reflections Shadow Palette shown here is Reflex Light. It contains 12 metallic eyeshadows. They are nicely pigmented and apply and blend beautifully!

You can see the MatteLast Liquid Lip in Berry Beauty and the Endless Silky Eye Pen in BlackNoir in action below. I’ve already swatched the Eye Reflections Shadow Palette in Reflex Light a few months back. You can probably find a photo on my Instagram stories highlights.

Pixi Beauty Pretties

December 5, 2019 | Beauty, Pixi Beauty | 21 Comments »

I’ve had this collection of goodies for a while now. I just really wanted to take my time with it. I wanted to do it justice. That and there were so many products that I didn’t know where to start. I even messed up during the photoshoot and paired up two products that didn’t go together. That’s how excited I was. Oops!

The Pixi Beauty Pretties is a collaboration between Pixi Beauty and various influencers. I will list each collab complete with photos, swatches, pricing, and a description.

Pixi + Rachh Loves | The Layers Highlighting Palette $24.00

Pixi + Racch Loves The Layers Highlighting Palette contains 5 highlighters. You can use these individually or layer them on your eyelids or cheeks. They’re nicely pigmented and offer a really nice glow. I’m especially loving the shade Zipper.

Pixi + Heart Defensor | Eye Heart Palette $20.00

Pixi + Heart Defensor Eye Heart Palette contains 8 eyeshadows in both matte and metallic finishes. The shadows are very large and very pigmented. It’s a very eye-catching palette. I thought some of the shades would make for a beautiful blush and I was right. I use Feb 4th and Always Dancing for blush from time to time. They all applied and blended beautifully. Even on the face. This is a really cute multi-tasking palette.

Pixi + Maryam Maquillage | Lip Kit (Night/Day) $18.00

Pixi + Maryam Maquillage Lip Kit in Night/Day each contain one Liquid Fairy Lights Liquid Eyeshadow and one MatteLast Liquid Lip. I absolutely love the packaging, but I wasn’t so sure I’d love the Liquid Eyeshadow. I have a few I like and use once in a while, but I mostly avoid others. I’m just not a fan. However these are so cute and add that little extra something to your eye look. I like to dip my brush on the wand and gently pat the shadow over my base. I didn’t experience too much fallout and my eyes looked all kinds of glamorous. The matching Liquid Lip is also a winner. They remind me of Sugarpill’s with the creamsicle scent. The wand was pillowy soft and the lipstick applied perfectly. It made for a nice comfortable wear, but could be drying at times. Then again it is cold and my lips are really feeling it.

Pixi + From Head To Toe | Glow-Y Powder $16.00, Endless Shade Stick $14.00

Pixi + From Head To Toe Glow-Y Powder and Endless Shade Stick is where I messed up. The Shade Stick was paired with one of the Lip Icings so when you get to them you’ll have to scroll back up. The Glow-Y powders are nicely pigmented. They’re so soft and creamy. They just glide onto the skin. Wednesdays is my favorite since it’s unique in my collection. The Shade Stick is the prettiest gold shade. It’s nice and creamy and really pops.

Pixi + Chloe Morello | Lip Icing $14.00

Pixi + Chloe Morello Lip Icing comes in 3 beautiful shades. Bonbon, Parfait, and Sorbet. The Lip Icing adds 3D glimmer that can be used alone or layered on top of your favorite lipstick. These also smell like a delicious creamsicle.

You can see the Pixi + Heart Defensor Eye Heart Palette, Pixi + Maryam Maquillage Lip Kit in Day, and the Pixi + Racch Loves The Layers Highlighting Palette in action below. I used the shades Oh He Got Money, Feb 4th, and Always Dancing on my eyes. I layered Mirage on top of my lid. I also used Feb 4th as my blush and Clutch as my highlighter.

Overall, I’d have to say this was a very exciting collection. The products all pair together beautifully. Even the products I didn’t expect to like really surprised me. I ended up loving them. If I had to pick a favorite of the bunch it would be the Pixi + Maryam Maquillage Lip Kits. They’re super cute and would make the best stocking stuffers.

Have you tried any of these products? Which collab catches your eye more?
