Swatches: GildedBare Glow, PinkChampagne Glow

I haven’t tried much from Pixi Beauty. I have a few eyeshadow duos that I received from monthly subscription boxes stored in my tool box. I remember them being nicely pigmented. Other than that I haven’t tried anything else from the brand. And I seriously must be one of the only people in the beauty community who hasn’t tried their popular Glow Tonic yet. I keep meaning to, but whenever I’m at Target I forget why I’m there. I end up leaving with a ton of stuff none of which is the reason I stopped there in the first place. One day…

To say that I was surprised to see this beautiful package on my doorstep would be a huge understatement. I may have jumped up and down a bit. I love blush and highlighters. And these ombre type palettes are my absolute favorite! The PixiGlow Cake is a 3-in-1 cheek palette containing contour, blush and highlighter all in one. You can use the shades individually or swirl them together for a beautiful natural glow. They contain ceramides to help restore skin’s moisture barrier, peptides to plump and firm, and grape seed extract to improve skin’s elasticity.

The PixiGlow Cake comes in the shades GildedBare Glow and PinkChampagne Glow. Today I will be talking about PinkChampagne Glow. In the swatches I swirled the 3 shades together. You can see what I mean about the beautiful natural glow. It’s so soft that it just melts onto my skin. It’s nicely pigmented and can easily be built up. I was really worried about overdoing it with this shade, but it surprisingly looked very natural. It ended up being my favorite of the two.

In my look below I used the two darker shades for my cheek color. I used the lighter shade for my highlight. I actually went in with a slightly heavy hand so that you could see how nicely it layers. I got compliments on this look all day long! It really is gorgeous and all kinds of glowy.

Overall, I’d have to say that the PixiGlow Cake in PinkChampagne Glow is a winner! I was excepting to like the GildedBare Glow more because it was more neutral, but PinkChampagne Glow really impressed me. Not only is it gorgeous, but these types of palettes are so handy for taking on the go. No need to pack up 3 separate items. Just pack this baby up and you’re good to go. I’ve already moved it into my most used drawer. I love it that much!

The selfie light was a nice bonus. You can see a photo I snapped with my iPhone using the selfie light on my Instagram stories highlight. It should be in the PR Unboxing section. I’m not sure if the light will be available for purchase or if it was just something they included in their PR boxes. I would definitely buy one though. I never thought to try one because I have my own lighting. But it’s pretty handy if you don’t have other lighting or if you want to take selfies on the go.
