Pixi's Glow Range

The lovely people at Pixi sent me another box of goodies! I am always so grateful to receive new products to try, and Pixi always have such lovely items.

These were from their skincare range, which I think at this time of year is much needed, with the cold weather it makes my skin very dry and dull looking, so these beauties were definitely welcome!

I received these a few weeks ago but with skincare I like to be able to try them out for a while so that I can really get a feel for the products and then give my honest opinion.


The first item i'm going to talk about is the Glow Mist:

What Pixi say: 

• All-over glow mist for a radiant, dewy effect
• Gives a glowing, luminous and smooth complexion
• Enriched with 13 natural oils plus propolis, aloe vera and fruit extracts
• Hydrates, protects and nourishes
• Sets makeup, adds a dewy finish and protects skin
• Refreshes makeup, hydrates and adds glow
• Suits all skin types
• Not tested on animals

My Opinion: 

The first thing I noticed with this product that it had separated in the bottle like some cleansers and makeup removers that I have used in the past. Once this has been shook up it goes cloudy. It says that it can be used after makeup to give  a dewy finish which i tried and it does what it says, I also tried to apply it before my foundation, I found for me this worked better for me it seemed to make the foundation go on smoother and it still left a nice finish without making it look too shiny.


The next item in the box is the 24 k Eye Elixir:

What Pixi say: 

• This multitasker is infused with powerful age-defying ingredients to refresh eyes & prevent signs of fatigue
• Collagen helps to repair the delicate eye area, peptides plump fine lines, and raspberry tones skin
• Cooling rollerball applicator soothes & encourages circulation around the eye

My Opinion: 

This feels lovely and cooling on the eyes, I normally end up with tired looking eyes (generally though lack of sleep!!) but I have found that this does make them look more awake. I generally don't have an issue with wrinkles just yet, but I am happy to use products that will help to moisturise the area and make it generally look more healthy, and I think that this does help to achieve that. I have been applying it under my foundation in a morning


Next up is the Glowtion Day Dew:

What Pixi say: 

• Advanced illuminating skin-perfector nourishes & soothes while giving a boost to dull skin
• Featherlight and hydrating, this moisturizer imparts a natural-looking radiance to skin tone
• Makes skin look healthier & more even
• Lavender oil calms, kaolin purifies, and mica brightens
• Not tested on animals

My Opinion: 

I always apply moisturiser to my face, as it it is prone to eczema, but at the same time I don't want anything that is too strong especially with strong scents that will make the skin more irritated. This cream was fine, it is a lovely consistency and has a lovely present scent nothing too overpowering, again this worked as a great base for my makeup. It didn't make it too greasy so that the foundation slid off, it generally made my skin look great


The final item is the Beauty Sleep Cream:

What Pixi say:

• This fast-absorbing, nutrient-rich nighttime essential helps to protect, nourish, and hydrate skin while you sleep
• With 100% natural mango butter
• Oils of lavender, lemon & bergamot
• Cream calms and balances skintone
• Not tested on animals

My Opinion: 

I have tried applying this a few evenings after I have removed my makeup, and left it on overnight. The next morning I woke up with lovely smooth skin. Again this was fine with my sensitive skin, it really made it feel nice and hydrated. There is nothing worse for me than going to bed with tight dry skin!

I love that all of these products are cruelty free, and they are all working wonderfully on my skin.
