Pixi Succulent Lip Twin 4 Poppy Red Swatch & Review


 Pixi Succulent Lip Twin in Poppy Red contains both a bright cherry red lip balm/gloss and cheek stain. I find this a great travel product, not only as it's a good multi tasker but because the blush is so dense and waxy that in hot climates it's one of the only things that will not sweat off or melt with the heat.

 You get a pretty decent amount of balm and it's lovely and hydrating too. The color is a warm red but on my lips it turns much pinker. It's translucent but still contains a lot of colour and has a very glossy finish. As it has plenty of slip the wear time isn't particularly long- about 2 hours. The blush is also a warm red tone but once blended out it turns more pink/coral depending on your skin tone. You can use it by itself or set with powder on top but it's pretty pigmented on its own.

PixiGlow Nail Polish 408 Pirouette Pink Swatch & Review

Pixi Pirouette Pink (flash)
This is from Pixi's Summer Collection. Pirouette Pink is a bright neon pink with a gold pearl. This is much paler than your standard neon pink nail colour, sort of a mix of cotton candy and neon pink- very pretty and I don't have anything quite like it. It goes on a bit sheer but I can get opaque coverage in 3 coats. As it's neon it dries to a matte finish so I've added a topcoat here but it dries very quickly so makes application a doddle.

You can't really see the gold pearl unless you look in bright sunlight. I found this lasts about 3 days on me before I get any tip wear.
