Pixi Beauty H2O Skin Tint | Review



In my rabbit hole of skin tints, I tried last year, the Pixi Beauty H2O was on the list. I hadn't heard much about it and then stumbled across it while browsing in Target. I decided to give it a shot although the shade range was on the small side. It's the ordeal of the Target store just carrying a certain amount instead of caring to make sure they have the full range for everyone. But in total the shade range is 16 shades which isn't horrible for a skin tint but also means everyone probably has a one-shot to find your shade. You may end up having to go with a hair too light or a hair too dark, like myself. The lightest the Target had was the shade, Cream, which is the second to lightest. I later found they had a shade, Fair, that is a tad lighter but I'm sure would work much better for me since this current is just off by a little. 

The Deets: 

$24

16 shades, Paraben-free, cruelty-free, and suitable for all skin types. It is a water-based gel tint that evens out skin tone and gives a flawless, semi-matte finish. Hydrating, long-lasting, and water-resistant. Made with Green Tea (provides antioxidants), Rosewater (hydrates skin), and Lavender (soothes skin). 

Claims: Gives a healthy no-makeup look, innovative weightless gel texture, balances and refreshes instantly, and covers redness and uneven skin tone.

I have to say all the claims add up when using this product. The gel consistency feels nice being applied and lays on the skin beautifully. The product does dry down a bit but not in a matte way. Your skin feels light but it leaves you with a finish that feels secure in place. I still powder as I tend to go shiny with it, like other tinted products, throughout the day. It has laid nicely with any concealer and powders I have used. I'm also able to build up products (bronzer, blush, highlighter) without any disturbance. It wears nicely throughout the day and still looks fresh by the afternoon. It's comfortable on the skin and keeps it looking "skin-like," while covering redness. The coverage is light-medium. It isn't sheer, but I can't really build it up past medium. It does cover my redness without a color corrector though. My only con with this product is the shade I got. I can make it work with a little extra product going down my neck (but who wants that) so it'll do for now and will work much better in the summer with a little extra color to my skin. I enjoy this product so much I will pick up the lighter shade to test for better results in the shade area. 

It is a really nice tint and honestly one of my new favorites for when I want to stay on the light side with my makeup but when I also want it to last all day. Have you tried this skin tint yet? xx

Tower 28 Beauty | Makeup

 To the brand that has opened my eyes to a creative outlet while thinking of my skin all the time. Tower 28 Beauty has proved to me that you can have fun with makeup while taking your skin into consideration the entire time. While it's still fun to dip into all my other makeup I have found so much joy in my lightweight makeup ways. The shift happened after trying more cream products and Tower 28 has been one of them. I eyed the beauty of this brand for a while and then took the plunge with their cream bronzer, Bronzino in the shade Sun Coast (the lightest to go with my fair complexion), Beach Please Balm Blush in the shade Power Hour , and a couple of their ShineOn Lip Jellies (Almond & Cashew) .  Their creams are balms so you get a full shine to your look. They not only make your skin look glossy and healthy but also vibrant with the pigment. The blushes really pack a punch in pigment and can be worn as a flush of color or built-up. The bronzer is a little less pigmented th

Beauty Tuesday

For my first " Beauty Tuesday", I thought I would start it off with my May Ipsy bag. If you're not familiar with Ipsy, it's a monthly subscription bag with 4-5 full and/or sample size beauty products. This June marks two years that I've received a bag. Even though some bags are hit or miss, I've continued to be subscribed so I can try out new items. I feel like Ipsy has really upped their game this year and I've loved every bag I've gotten. I'll be sharing my bag with you every month with my own personal review of the bag itself, and each product in it. I'll also blog about how certain makeup wears, feels, and my own opinion of the product. The same for skincare products, and how they work with my skin type.  I hope you enjoy my May 2017 Glam Bag (If you're interested in subscribing to Ipsy's monthly Glam Bag, I'll post the link down below). I'm more into Ipsy for the actual products and not the bags, but I'll admit the ba

Alamar Cosmetics Spanglish | Makeup

I've been loving Alamar since it started and I love to see how far they have come. It's an indie brand I will always recommend so to then get their products in Boxycharm or Boxy Pop Up sales its a win win! That's how I got my Spanglish palette . You can already see this is an Ally palette by the purples! It's a gorgeous one with buttery mattes and stunning metallics. I also appreciate the subtle browns while also having the pops of color too. I found the color story pretty, but also odd. It's not one you see a lot but it does work. I have also found myself creating unique shades by mixing shades together. It's definitely a cute summer moment that you won't be disappointed with.  Swatches left to right: Pero Like, Eres Un Show, Tiene Swing, Guao, Ay Que Cute, Jajaja, Muy Excited, & Ponte Hyper.  Did you miss these blogs?  Lizzie McGuire x ColourPop | Makeup KVD Beauty Edge of Reality | Makeup Beautbean x Shroud It's Freakin' Bats | Makeup I als
