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

Skincare & Makeup Haul

Skincare & Makeup Haul I've never done a "haul" on my blog before, but I thought it would be a cool idea plus it would be a sneak peak of things that I'll be trying out for future reviews.  Skincare: I have been loving trying out new skincare items and although my skincare bin is a little full at the moment there was a few things I was running low on and a few things that I couldn't pass on!  I was running low on both makeup removing wipes and micellar water, so I picked these up at Target. I often use a moisturizer from the Simple brand, but I've never tried their wipes or micellar water before. It's cheaper in the long run buying the two pack of wipes, but I do hope these work good!  My nose has once again started getting clogged with blackheads. I've been trying out a few different foundations and wearing makeup just about everyday and my skin just isn't use to that. After taking a two week break from makeup a...

July Monthly Beauty Favorites

  July Monthly Beauty Favorites  I've been keeping my fingernails pretty naturally and trying to get them more healthier and longer looking, but I got this Kokie nail polish in an Ipsy bag a couple months ago and I've been using it a lot this summer on my toes. It's a really pretty periwinkle color. This is in the shade Heavenly. I actually bought this awhile back and used it (at least the body mist, as you can tell) so much. I've recently started using them again and have fallen in love with the scent once again. It's a mixture of vanilla and coconut. Those are my favorites!   FACE: For face care, I've still been using this  tarte Rainforest of the Sea Deep Dive Gel Cleanser . I absolutely  love this stuff! This is a "must have" and "holy grail" for me! It has helped my face problems (I still have some issues of course, but it's improved since using this religiously) so much and doesn't dry my skin out too much a...

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...
