Pixi By Petra Glow Tonic
I received yet another beautiful package from Pixi, they really have an amazing PR team! This was packaged beautifully, in side was my own personalised bottle of their famous Glow Tonic!
The packaging itself is so pretty it came apart with this little ribbon on the top to reveal a huge bottle of Glow Tonic. Even with my name on it which defiantly made it that little bit more special.
This has to be the biggest size I have seen in this product, which is great as I really do use this pretty much daily at the moment it has really come part of my routine. This size also comes with a handy pump which will make it even easier to use. As it can be pumped straight into my cotton pads. I always love a product that comes with a pump it makes it that much easier to use and I think keeps the bottle cleaner to!!
I have already said it previous posts before how much I am in love with this product. You can see a full review on my blog. But this really does make such a difference to you skin it leaves it feeling so soft!
You can find this and more great products from Pixi here

Pixi by Petra Glow Tonic Challenge
This Delivery was something a little different from Pixi, It included some of my favorite items of theirs, the Glow Tonic. There was another bottle of this amazing liquid, which was much needed as mine was running low! Plus there was some of their pre-soaked pads which are great for on the go!
This package also included a cute t- shirt from the brand, which I thought was a really nice touch.
I have shared my thoughts on this product before, I have found that the toner works to exfoliate and even out skin tone. Since using this product, my skin has a more even look and feel. Not to mention that the Pixi glow is real – my skin has definitely gotten a glow since introducing the Glow Tonic into my daily routine.
The pads are also a great addition as they make the product even more convenient to use!

St. Moriz Advanced Pro Formula Fast Response Tanning Mist Review
I have been a fan of St Moriz fake tan for a while now, I have always used the mousse, So I was excited to try something different from the brand
The New St. Moriz Advanced Pro Formula collection brings you the most advanced range yet. Salon quality formulations, with advanced ingredients and proven results, it will revolutionise and lock down your perfect tan. Get ready to transform your tanning experience!
Ideal for those who like a quick fix tan, the St. Moriz Advanced Pro Fast Response tanning Mist allows you to control your shade. Achieve a light glow in 1 hour, a medium tan in 2 hours and a dark tan in 3 hours. For those who like a deeper tan, leave on for longer.
From looking at the packaging I was impressed, it looked really sturdy and I liked the shape of the spray nozzle, I thought that this would help create less mess.
I have tried this product a few times and though I am impressed with the end result, as I have been with the mousse version on this product. I found it to be so hard to apply. It doesn't dispense in the find spray that I was expecting, its a thicker line of products that then requires quite a lot of blending in with a mit. I found it particularly difficult to spray onto harder to reach places, so ended up just spraying it onto the mitt and applying it that way.
I washed off the top layer after sleeping in it over night, which is what I would usually do. I was impressed with the end result, it gave me a lovely even colour that lasted well. if I had a choice I find the mousse just easier to apply.
You can find there range HERE at Boots, they are currently on 3 for 2 as well!
Which formulation do you find works best for you?

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.
