Pixi Flawless Beauty Stick

When it comes to base products, I feel like it can be very difficult to find a good match shade-wise from more affordable brands. Obviously this all depends on your skin tone, but if you have very fair skin like I do, you know the struggle. Pixi makes great makeup at great prices and their Flawless Beauty Stick is great for fair skinned girls.

This is basically a foundation stick that offers medium coverage and one of the most natural skin-like finishes I have ever tried. I was really impressed by how it manages to cover redness and small imperfection without looking like you have anything on. The finish is luminous without being shiny and it is quite long-lasting. Also, I love that this is fragrance-free and has an SPF 28, added sun protection is always a plus in my book.

blend it into your skin which makes color matching easier. I have the lightest shade and even though it looks a little dark a yellow in the swatch, it disappears into my skin. The yellow undertone is also great at covering up redness. I have shied away from foundation sticks in the past because they always looked so thick, but this one has definitely changed my mind. 

You can get the Pixi Flawless Beauty Stick from Target and the Pixi store in London. However, it is out of stock online and I think they might be discontinuing it so I would highly recommend you grab it if you see it somewhere.

Pixi H2O SkinTint

Hello everyone, I hope you’re all having a lovely Saturday. I’ve decided to take it easy today by doing fun stuff like catching up on my reading and maybe hitting the gym later. So, in the spirit of the weekend I thought it would be great to bring you a review of one of my favorite weekend products, the Pixi H2O SkinTint. 

This is my absolute favorite tinted moisturizer, it’s a water-based gel that feels light and hydrating on the skin all the while providing some coverage. The formula is lovely, the gel feels super refreshing and never makes me oily. You can see in the pictures that the color and texture look quite dark and thick, but as you apply it, it melts into your skin and the tint blends in seamlessly.

Color wise, there are three shades to choose from and I picked the lightest one, which looks quite dark when it first comes out. Luckily, this is actually quite sheer and easy to blend in. As far as tinted moisturizers go, the Pixi one performs really well, it covers up redness and small imperfections nicely, just don’t expect full coverage from it. It truly does look like skin and because it’s a bit darker than my natural skin tone, it gives a nice healthy glow.

For all these reasons, I love using this product on lazy weekends or when I’m going to the gym. It gives me a little confidence boost because my skin looks more even and no one can say no to a little glow. 

You can purchase the Pixi H2O Skintint at Target and online from the Pixi website.
