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

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...

Ricky's Cult Crushes // May 2018

Ricky's Cult Crushes // May 2018  You may already know, but I moved all of my subscriptions to my beauty channel: AllyBrianne   You can check out my unboxings there of all of my monthly and seasonal subscriptions.  The reason I'm posting this blog today is because I just got this months Ricky's Cult Crushes in the mail last week. I planned on filming a quick unboxing to post Sunday, but my weekend got away from me so here we are. This is only my second month receiving this subscription. I'm up in the air about it honestly. Last months ( Ricky's Cult Crushes // April 2018 ) was a good box, but sadly the pans in the eyeshadow palette kept falling out! You can see all that business in the video! I was disappointed because the shadows were great.. The packaging not so much.  If you don't know what  Ricky's Cult Crushes is... It is a $11 (now $14, I'll explain) monthly subscription that has mainly beauty items. This is a subscription throug...

Testing Out Skincare: Tarte, Skin Food, & The Organic Pharmacy

Testing Out Skincare: Tarte, Skin Food, & The Organic Pharmacy I've been trying out skincare just as much as makeup lately! You can follow me on Instagram to see my #maskofthenight instastories (@allisonhunt_2) and you can see some future blogs of me reviewing those masks. Todays skincare is my holy grails and/or daily used items.   Tarte Rainforest of the Sea Deep Dive Cleansing Gel This has been my go-to cleanser for awhile now. I've actually mentioned it before in blogs. This is such a nice cleanser. It comes out in a light gel form and leaves my skin soft, clean, and refreshed! This isn't a harsh cleanser. It doesn't strip my face or irritate it at all! I was using this day and night. I use one pump in the morning (since I'm bare face) and two pumps at night (right after removing my makeup), but since I'm branching out and trying new things I've been using this just in the mornings. I feel like this is a cleanser I can't take...
