Pixi Beauty Skincare Favorites

I am lucky enough to be on Pixi’s PR list so periodically I get sent new and old products as they launch and promote them. Thank you Pixi Beauty. I like to integrate the skincare items into my routine and test them out, so today I’m sharing some of the products that I enjoyed the most from the lines I’ve received recently. Stay tuned for a bonus flop at the end that wasn’t my favorite.

Hydrating Milky Cleanser

I have kept this cleanser in the shower since I received it and I would say that this is a great cleanser for two specific types of people; someone who has sensitive skin and needs a basic cleanser, or anyone who does most of their treating with the rest of their skincare routine (i.e. serums, masks, oils, etc). I don’t use this on days I’ve worn makeup (after I’ve removed my makeup first) or when my skin is really struggling because I don’t think it does a good enough job of deep cleansing. However, everyone should have a simple basic cleanser on hand for when you just need a gentle cleanse. This would be great as an AM cleanser if you don’t need much treatment.

Retinol Jasmine Cleanser

I love this cleanser for days when I’m feeling drier than normal. For reference, I’m usually normal to oily in the warmer months and normal to dry in the winter months. I think this would be a great for someone who is on the drier side and looking for anti-aging products in their routine. It definitely leaves my skin feeling hydrated and nourished. The thing I love most about this Retinol line from Pixi Beauty is that none of the Retinol products are extremely concentrated so the will not leave you feeling dry and peel-y like some retinoids. They are a great intro to Retinol line.

Glow Tonic

I don’t think this needs another ‘glowing’ review because it definitely is a cult favorite (pun intended). If you’re looking for a good daily Glycolic Acid toner, check this one out. Remember, whenever using exfoliating products it’s important that you are wearing your SPF daily, even if you won’t be in the sun for long periods of time.

Rose Ceramide Cream

I can’t remember which collection this moisturizer came in, but I love it. Another basic that I think is important for every woman’s skincare routine, a good ceramide moisturizer is great for nights when you feel dry. I like the light refreshing rose scent.

Peel & Polish Resurfacing Concentrate

I love this exfoliating product because it’s great for days when you don’t have the time or energy for waiting for an exfoliating mask to sit. It is kind of a 2-in-1 physical and chemical exfoliation, but is still gentle. You simply apply it (avoiding your eye area), let it sit for a couple minutes, and then either wash it off or massive it in for a bonus physical exfoliation. I would do it 2 times max a week, unless you are doing more exfoliation throughout the week.

Glow Mud Mask

This is one of my favorite types of masks because it feels like a science experiment on your face haha. You apply it like a typical charcoal mask and as it dries, it dries darker in areas where you have trouble spots. I think this is great if you are newer to skincare and don’t necessarily know how to distinguish this yourself. I love to add my hydrocolloid zit patches after using this mask so I know which areas need extra help after the mask.

DeroxifEYE Facial Treatment

I love a good eye patch but am really specific about which ones I use since I often give these to clients before makeup applications if they are puffy in the undereye area. While I still prefer my Peter Thomas Roth Cucumber De-Tox Hydra-Gel Eye Patches these are definitely a close second and much more affordable option. They are great at depuffing and smoothing out the undereye area if you struggle with fine lines, allergies, puffiness, etc.

Overnight Retinol Oil

This is probably my most used product from Pixi so far and I love it. It is a simple retinol oil that you apply as your last step at night. I love how hydrating it is, but really feel like it helps keep the texture of my skin smoother. Again, as I mentioned earlier in this post, I love how this oil is a great every day retinol product and highly recommend it for someone who is looking to add a simple retinoid into their routine.

Bonus Flop: Hydrating Milky Makeup Remover

I have tried so hard to love this product for months but I just can’t get behind it. In order for me to really love a makeup remover, it needs to be able to remove all eye makeup easily without me having to use much pressure on the eye area. This is a delicate space that needs to be taken care of, especially if you are someone who wears makeup regularly. This one claims to remove even waterproof makeup, but I find it has issues removing even my regular non-waterproof mascara. I find that I still gravitate towards oil cleansers for this first step of a makeup removing double cleanse. If you do not wear much eye makeup or want a makeup remover for just your face, this might be a good option for you, as I love the pump dispenser and smell.
