Get Flawless in Minutes with Pixi by Petra

November 17, 2016

I recently received a sampling of products from Pixi by Petra.  Pixi was developed and founded by Petra Strand and inspired by makeup-artistry products.  I’ve used a few products from this line through the years.  As a matter of fact, the Mattelustre Lipstick is an all time favorite of mine.  I’ve recently heard a lot of really good reviews from others and had been meaning to pick up some items.  I still need to try the Glow Tonic because I hear that it’s amazing for the skin and has won all kinds of awards.

Let’s talk about the products that I did receive…

  • The Endless Silky Eye Pen – I received the color called Graphic Greige.  I honestly never think to change up the color of my eye liner and was pleasantly surprised by this shade.  I use it to tight line as well as on the upper lash line.  It’s a nice neutral color that complements all of the neutral looks that I wear daily.  The eye liner stays in place all day until I remove it.  Retail $12
  • Next I tried the Endless Brow Gel Pen in Medium.  This formula works great for filling in my brows.  It’s a unique gel formula that easily glides on.  It’s waterproof too and stays put all day long on me.  Retail $11
  • The Ripe Raspberry Shea Butter Lip Balm is a gorgeous shade for adding a pop of color.  I love that I can wear this very light and sheer or add layers to build it up.  It’s very moisturizing and is a great option when you want a tinted balm that has good pigmentation.  Retail $8.
  • Lengthy Fiber Mascara – This mascara has fibers in it that attach to the lashes for a lash extension look.  I wanted this mascara to work for me so bad, but unfortunately it did nothing at all for my lashes in terms of appearance.  I actually had to use another mascara on top of it to achieve a nice look.  Retail $16

I’m wearing all four of the products shown for my everyday minimal makeup look.

Verdict:  I’m head over heels in love with the Endless Silky Eye Pen, Endless Brow Gel Pen and Shea Butter lip balm.  The Endless products really are endless, as the name implies.  They stuck with me all day and had to be intentionally removed with makeup remover.  I love that the tinted lip balm is highly pigmented and can be layered for times when that extra pop of color is wanted.  As I mentioned above, the mascara just didn’t give my lashes the wow factor that I was expecting with the fibers in the formula.

I recommend trying Pixi products when you have a chance, especially when you’re looking for eye and brow products that stay put all day.  Pixi products can be purchased at Target and other stores online.  They’re high quality, very affordable and out-perform many high end department store brands.

Have you tried Pixi by Petra products?  If so, which are your favorites?

    I use the Endless Brow Pencil all the time. It’s long lasting and so easy to use. I want to try the mascara so I’m glad you mentioned using it with another mascara.

If you’re looking for a simple haircare routine th If you’re looking for a simple haircare routine that helps keep your hair hydrated and healthy looking, then I’ve got you. #AussiePartner 

I use the @aussiehaircare Miracle Moist Shampoo and Conditioner Set and then follow with the 3 Minute Miracle Deep Conditioner with avocado oil. This helps to detangle my hair for easier styling.

I definitely push the limits by getting my hair colored every month to cover grays and even though I use multiple heat styling tools these products help to keep my hair soft, smooth and visibly hydrated. 

It’s lightweight, smells great with a citrus and floral scent and doesn’t weigh my hair down.

Click the link in my bio to get yours and then get ready for a hair reset with lots of compliments.

At a petite 5’1”, both pairs are a good length to wear with low heels, flats or sneakers. If you’re tall, they will definitely be cropped. Best of both worlds!🙌🏻

Everything is available in multiple color options. You can visit my LTK for details and exact links.😎

Happy Monday! Don’t mind me, I’m just showing off Happy Monday! Don’t mind me, I’m just showing off my new booties for a minute. They were great for my monochromatic casual dinner date outfit. Let me know if you want the details.

I’m thrilled to be nearly done with my holiday shopping. Next up is stocking stuffers for 7 adults, 4 children and 3 dogs and then I can wrap, rest and enjoy the season.

What I find to be the hardest part is getting things that are at least a little bit unique that I haven’t done in the past and that actually fit into Christmas stockings.🤶

Do you have any good ideas for me?😉
