Pixi Sheer Beauty


I have had some lovely products from Pixi this month, they are their Gel tint and Silk gloss lip products, these are a duo of a stain and then a gloss over the top, these are available in 3 colours. The second lot of items were their cheek stains, these are a sheer gel that comes in 3 shades to.


Sheer Cheek Gel:


I normally use a dry powdered blush that I apply with a brush, so this cheek gel was definitely outside of my normal makeup routine.I applied a small amount of the cheek gel after I applied my foundation and rubbed it in using my fingers. I was surprised how well the gel blended into my foundation giving me a natural looking flush. I found that the moist gel texture gave skin a dewy glow and natural flush more than your typical blush. It lasted on my cheeks all day giving my skin a fresh summer glow. I am so excited to try this gel out some more and possibly layer the different colors. I was then able to apply my powder to set my makeup as normally.

Product Details


This sheer, translucent gel creates a super natural flush of colour – the key to a youthful face. Applies easily with fingers for a fresh & healthy burst of colour on cheeks and lips. Keeps cheeks looking fresh and healthy all day long without the need for any touch ups. Oil free, fragrance free and hypoallergenic. Hydrating, moisturizing and skin-conditioning.

How To-Apply


Blend a small amount into the apples of the cheeks – use a sweeping movement rather than rubbing. Layer under cheek powder or bronzer to extend wear without having to touch up.

 I was expecting the color to be very bright on my lips because it looked so bold in the bottle especially the bright pink gloss. I was actually kind of relieved when I applied the lip stain because the colours are so natural and perfect for an everyday look. When it comes to my everyday makeup look, I like to keep it simple especially my lips. I usually wear a bright red lipstick when I am taking photos or going to an event. I love these lip sets because you can layer the silk gloss with the lip tint or wear it on its own for a subtle effect. I was surprised how moisturizing the lip gloss was on my lips, and it worked perfectly as a moisturiser with added shine.

Apply tint or gloss onto lips for a quick pick me up or layer first with the tint then top off with the gloss for added dimension

I love these! Especially the gel tint! Plus, it has a subtle peppermint scent to it that is a big yes for me! Since it’s quite on the sheer side, all the available shades suit every type of skin tone. It’s down to how much pop of color you’d like to wear. The most natural/nude shade has to be the Berry Tint and Sweet Gloss combo. For a darker mood, opt for the Beach Tint and Fresh Gloss! But if you’re looking for that pretty pink flush, you definitely have to go for the Pink Tint and Pretty Gloss one.
