Happy (wet and windy) Friday friends! Starting at 2 am last night we started getting squalls from Hurricane Matthew so by the time everyone wakes up and reads this I have no idea whether I'll have internet, power, etc so please excuse my absence today. Matthew is still a category 4 storm so we're all on pins and needles here waiting to see how it will affect us throughout the day and the aftermath, not to mention whether the predictions are right and it comes back around to hit us for round 2. But I wasn't going to let a little (ok, make that a huge) hurricane stop me from posting today. Especially not to tell you about some of my newest favorite beauty products! You've already heard bloggers rave about the Holy Grail that is the Pixi Glow Tonic but recently I got to try out a few of their other beauty products and I have to say, I'm definitely impressed!
Pixi Glow Tonic $15 - I'll get the Glow Tonic out of the way first since by now almost everyone has already heard about how amazing it is and I definitely have to agree! Despite being an exfoliating cleanser, it's very light and moisturizing on your skin. I've been using it during the morning and at night and I've definitely noticed my complexion becoming less red and more even and glowy.
Nourishing Cleansing Balm $22 - So at first I was kinda "eh" about this product but it's definitely grown on me. I don't use it every night but a few times a week has been perfect. It reminds me a lot of washing your face with coconut oil (probably because it's got almond oil and shea butter) and really does a great job of getting all the dirt, oil and makeup out of your skin. I usually have to use an eye makeup remover to get my mascara off but this gets it off easily. I love how soft and silky my skin feels after using it too.
Rose Oil Blend $24 - I've expressed multiple times how much I love a good rose oil so I was excited to receive this one. While I still don't love it as much as my everyday go-to, this one is considerably cheaper and still leaves your skin glowing. This oil is a little thicker than the ones I'm used to but it still seems to sink in well!
Liplift Max $14 - I was super excited about this as lately I've been trying new lip plumpers but sadly I didn't really notice much of a change with this one. It barely tingled and didn't give any noticeable changes to my lips but it did smell good and the color was pretty. Since I'm not a huge lip gloss fan I'd probably skip this one in the future.
Beauty Blush Duo & Kabuki $18 - I got this in the Peach Honey color and while it isn't very pigmented, it is great for a natural look. I love this for the weekends when I don't want a fully made up look, just a light flush with a bit of glow. I've heard that the Rose Gold color is more pigmented but like I said, if you're just looking to give yourself a bit of a healthy glow, this works perfect!
Hope everyone has a fabulous weekend. Again, I'll be on social media when/if I can but don't expect too much. Really hoping this storm moves out in time for Saturday since it already ruined my Friday plans! Also, sending all my thoughts and prayers to my friends in my old hometown of Melbourne who are getting this storm WAY worse than I am and my friends in Charleston who had to evacuate ahead of the storm.
Linking up with Amanda for Friday Favorites!
