Over the last few months, I've had a handful of new product launches to play with, and these have just slipped their way in there so hot on the tails of my post -
12 NEW Products from Pixi Beauty to Try I bring you a little bit of makeup fun with their oh-so-pretty On The Glow Blush Sticks.
I personally think Pixi do makeup really well - all their products are fun, colourful and innovative and there are plenty of fuss-free favourites to add to your everyday makeup bag. I swear by their highlighters, eyeshadows and mascaras but I've never tried the blush sticks until now.
Spoiler - I loveeeeee them!
I've really simplified my makeup bag over the last year, staying home meant I wasn't wearing makeup like I always have done and so easy to use tools have fast become my go-to. I'm a bit slapdash with blush, I've always loved powder for ease so I can quickly twirl in a brush, apply and be on my way but the Pixi On-The-Glow Blush Sticks make it even easier to add colour especially if you're in a rush.
The glow-inducing cheek colours deliver high-pigment colour payoff as well as long-lasting wear. The formula is smooth, glides onto the skin, and feels completely weightless - it blends like a complete dream on the skin when using a buffing brush.
The formula is enriched with Ginseng, Aloe Vera, and Fruit Extracts which release soothing and calming properties to ensure skin remains supple and hydrated throughout wear time.
Buildable and blendable, the cheek colour works to enliven the complexion with a soft, natural-looking flush, and can also be used as a subtle lip tint - it gives such a hydrating and dewy look to the skin.
The packaging is a little different to blush sticks I've seen and used in the past which are usually round. Pixi's are housed in a stick-like applicator that is twistable with a solid balm that you can swipe directly onto the skin and then blend allowing for precise and controlled application every time.
Overall, I'm a big fan and more so than I thought I would be! I've always been wary of how intense the shades look but they're so easily blendable my fear of looking like a clown has never happened.
The Pixi On-The-Glow Blush Sticks are available to buy via Pixi, Boots or Look Fantastic. You just need to try and decide what shade is more perfect for you - Fleur is what I've been reaching for the most!
