PIXI Beauty Review

Pixi Beauty Review




A little while ago now I was browsing through PIXI Beauty and found two products of interest.


This was my first PIXI purchase and I admit I was a little skeptical.

The products I ordered were 'Pixi Flawless and Poreless Primer' for £20.50, and 'PIXI Flawless Finishing Powder in Translucent' for £16.50.


When my PIXI package arrived I was a bit disappointed with the size of the primer tube, it was much teenier than I expected. HOWEVER! Because you only really need to use a small amount for each application, it lasts a hell of a long time!



As for the product itself, it's definitely a great primer. I was never really a fan of primers, although now I feel this was simply because I could never find a good primer for my skin type (combination).



The flawless finish powder works just as you would expect, and I do like it a lot. It's not thick or cakey and for a thin powder it leaves a nice matte finish. The problem for me is that for £16.50 there just isn't enough of it.  I suggest keeping this compact powder in your handbag for touch ups, and not for use as a daily powder if you want it to last.



Overall, great products but maybe a bit too pricey for their size.

Primark joins ASOS

Wow, I never thought I'd see the day!
It seemed Primark would never join the ever growing online retail community.

Perhaps we'll see an online store for their current Primark website.
Though, I must admit, selling products through ASOS is a smart move on their behalf.

Maybe I'm a little biased because I LOVE ASOS  :P

Primark have a launched a range of 20 pieces on the ASOS online store, click the link below to take a look.
