Pixi Palettes are Exceptionally Pretty!

I don't think that there is one of these sleek palettes which I don't own. They were available at a discount on another site, and I bought them all after the first one. The colors are perfectly complementary to each other, and the finishes vary from matte to shimmer. I am amazed at some the unique and deep hues this company has developed! The colors are finely-milled and blend well (the little...read more brush applicator included is quite nice, but I suggest you work with your own tools for best results). You can go from a neutral to a smoky eye easily, and they last a long, long time, especially when applied over the base some palettes contain or a primer. They are hardly thicker than a credit card, but there is a lot of product in each pod. If you have a hard time finding them at Target, you can still get them for a good price at Amazon or eBay.

PIXI EYE BEAUTY KIT

I have this and really really like it. In fact I don't think I've brought anything Pixi that I've not liked. I use these dark colours in place of eyeliner, apply with a thin brush and then blend, got some cracking looks with them. They also work well with the smokey eye look that I think they were intended for. I find that I get tons of colour, they blend beautifully and really last. It is a tad o...read moren the pricey side, but then I really really don't think that MAC or NARS is all that, I think they are overpriced having tried their products. I'd spend my money on Pixi before either of those, but I guess it's down to personal taste. I have several of the Pixi eye kits, I love the lavender kit, and I also have the nude shade kit which for me teams great with this as I use the natural shades as a base and blend the smokey colours in. This palette costs more than I would typically spend on eyeshadow, but it comes with many beautiful colors, so I don't mind quite so much. the colors are very vibrant. It is easy to create a dramatic look. A couple of them are shimmery (brown, green, & taupe), a couple are matte ( blue & black), and there are a few satin colors (purple& grey). I use a lid primer before eyeshadow, unless I'm in a hurry. These colors have good payoff. If I want to deepen the colors for evening wear, I use a black creamy base like the black gel liner by Pixi. I pat the eyeshadow onto my lid using a dense eyeshadow brush, then blend with a fluffier blush or crease brush. When used with a primer or base, the eyeshadow has great staying power. 1. I purchased two of these at Target at 75% off. 2. These aren't bad at all. I got a good color payoff even without my usual primer. 3. It says on the packaging that these shadows are sheer and if you want more color to apply wet. 4. The packaging is slim purposely- so that it is easier to tote about.

Pixi Eye Beauty Kit

I was really disappointed that Sephora stopped carrying this line, but now that Target carries the Pixi line, I am really happy. I have 2 of these palettes, Mango and Magic and I love them. They have such beautiful coordinated colors as well as a really nice concealer and eye shadow primer. The brushes are fantastic, unlike many other palettes that include some really crummy little brush that is...read moren't really good. The size is wonderful too, they are a little bigger than a credit card, and fit nicely in any hand bag even the smallest evening bag. The shadows are very nicely pigmented, they are very workable, blendable, and buidable. They wear very well, after hours of wear, I had no creasing, smudging, or fading. I also experience very little to no fallout, they load nicely on a brush. I like these two I already own, I plan on picking up one or two more, I like them that well.
