Pixi by Petra - New Beauty

Everyone will have heard of Pixi who are quite famous for their Glow Tonic, a cult product for many and one which is on my wish list as I still haven't tried it. Until a few weeks ago, I had no idea how wide and varied the entire skincare range was and what's more, their Autumn launch, which I am sharing with you today is pretty fantastic.

The two skincare products that I have are the H20 Skindrink (£24.00) and Beauty Sleep Cream (£24.00). The H20 Skindrink I loved from the moment I tried it. Containing Aloe Vera, Green Tea, Rosemary and Glycerin it claims to refresh, cool, stimulate, rejuvenate and help trap moisture into your skin. 

When you use it, the first thing I noticed was how wet it was, odd to say but it is the best way I can think to describe the texture. On a hot summers day, it is an absolute delight to apply especially if it has been stored in the fridge a few hours before you use it and my skin absolutely loves it.

The Beauty Sleep Cream is a soothing and nourishing night treatment, with uses 100% natural mango butter, plus oils of lavender, lemon & bergamot to protect, nourish, and hydrate skin while you sleep.  

This cream is really light-weight on the skin and it sinks in so quickly you don't even know it is there and it is a product I definitely love and want to try, as suggested, with Overnight Glow Serum which also sounds delightful.

The final skincare product I have is the 24K Eye Elixir (£22.00) which is an anti-fatigue peptide serum that massages away puffiness as it smoothes and refreshes the eye area. The formula contains actual gold, to stimulate circulation, peptides to plump fine lines, and raspberry to tone the skin. The metal rollerball gives a fantastic cooling feeling on application, which really does refresh instantly.

As well as skincare, also in the box was three makeup products and this is another first for me because ive never tried the makeup range, which again is quite extensive and looks amazing.

First up we have the Lengthy Fibre Mascara (£16.00) which is filled with really tiny fibres to help thicken and bulk up your lashes.  I really like the wand, it is lightweight to hold and really easy to work between your lashes. It doesn't clump and it doesn't produce spider lashes, I think this is going to be one of those mascaras that I absolutely love and always need to have.

Staying with the eye, we have the Endless Silky Eye Pen (£12.00). The pencil is waterproof, smudge proof and incredibly long-wearing. There are around 14 different shades and they all have a super smooth and silky formula which glides on beautifully. 

Impressively they are all paraben-free, mineral oil-free, preservative-free and hypoallergenic. Slate Grey is a brand new shade to the already large collection, and I love it! If you’re not a fan of black eyeliners, this colour is a fantastic alternative.

Finally within this little bundle of joy is the Endless Matte Lipstick in shade Rose Naturelle (£14.00). I absolutely love this lipstick and have worn it everyday since it came into my being. This shade is described as being a ‘vintage lip tone rose’. The Endless Matte Lipsticks offer a demi-matte finish and they also contain peptides, hyaluronic acid, and vitamins C & E help to create fuller, smoother looking lips. 

I find this really moisturising and hydrating on my lips and it is long lasting. Once applied I get good 4-5 hours wear out of it and for me it is shade perfect. This iwill definitely be a repurchase time and time again, plus there are a few other shades I am looking forward to trying.
