Pixi Beauty Retinol Skintreats review (gifted with no obligation)

I’ve been using this skincare line for several weeks now and I can say with confidence that I love it 👌

  • The Overnight Retinol oil quenches my dry skin nicely after I wash it with the Retinol Jasmine cleanser (you can use any cleanser you love though). It smells beautifully soothing, and releases retinol over time as you sleep (anti-aging benefits). It also has peptides & ceramide – which firm and lock in moisture. If you have dry skin, this is heavenly!
  • The Retinol eye cream comes next in my routine. It’s very lightweight and absorbs quickly so you don’t have it running around your eyes. It has caffeine (which helps depuff) in addition to the retinol and peptides as well.
  • After I let those sit on my face and watch TV, I top it with a light layer of the Retinol Jasmine lotion, and it melds really well together.
  • The jasmine in this line is so relaxing and it really helps me feel ready for bedtime.

This is one of my favourite skincare sets I’ve ever used. For realz! 😂💯

Pat McGrath Eye Ecstasy “Sublime” eyeshadow palette review, texture, swatches

This is my latest addition from this brand, and I like it much better than the other two palettes I previously bought (subliminal platinum & sublime bronze). Scroll all the way down for texture shots!

  • There are four metallic shimmers and one matte with glitter.
  • I hate mattes with glitter, but I’m able to use it as a matte if I tap my brush off (all the glitter comes off that way)
  • The shimmers are pigmented and beautiful, not to mention wearable colours.
  • The reddish brown (swatched at the top) shifts from brown to a dark pink and is super fun!
  • The green shade is my favourite in this palette and makes my brown eyes look slightly hazel when applied as the main colour on my eyes.
  • The shimmer formula feels smooth, buttery and pigmented.

Here are some swatches on very light skin:

❤️I’m super happy that I bought this palette! It retails for $28 but you can catch it on sale often (like I did).
