The Rose Infused Skintreats line by Pixi Beauty* includes 10 rose-scented facial products that are sure to delight! Combined, these products remove your makeup, cleanse your skin, tone, hydrate, and boost your skin’s natural glow. My jaw literally dropped when this package arrived on my doorstep, complete with a customized toiletries bag that is oh-so-perfect for travelling. Now that I’ve been using this skincare regimen almost exclusively for the past month, I want to share my results!
Pixi Beauty Rose Infused Skintreats
Makeup Melting Cleansing Cloths: I never use makeup removing cloths at home, but I love to pack them whenever I am traveling. They are so convenient to throw in a bag for the weekend. I did use one of these at home for review purposes and I thought it did a good job of removing my makeup. It was a little dryer than I prefer but was moist enough to remove most of my makeup. For heavy eye makeup, you would need more than one. Oddly enough, I cannot seem to find these on the Pixi website.
Rose Cream Cleanser: I am impressed with how gentle this cleanser it. It is a very lightweight cleanser, but it lathers sufficiently. It does a great job of removing my eye makeup and leaves my skin feeling clean but never tight or dry. It’s truly a fantastic every day cleanser.
Rose Tonic: This is a product that admittedly, I haven’t used a lot. I’m still using my Pixi Rose Glow Tonic at night so I’ve been trying to use this one after cleansing in the morning. The problem is that I keep forgetting to grab it before applying my moisturizer! The Rose Tonic is different from the Glow Tonic in that it’s meant to hydrate and neutralize pH levels of the skin, where the Glow Tonic exfoliates. I definitely need to try this one out more! It did seem very gentle and balancing when I tried it, and certainly less harsh than the Glow Tonic.
Rose Caviar Essence: Essences became all the rage in 2018, a trend that I expect to continue into 2019. This Rose Caviar Essence actually contains concentrated flower oils! After toning, it instructs you to gently press this essence on to the skin of your face, neck and décolletage. It claims to soften and tone the skin while the fresh botanicals hydrate and restore radiance. I haven’t been using this product daily, mainly because I’m always in a hurry in the morning and I don’t have time to press this into my skin and let it absorb. I’ve been trying to use it on the weekends when I am not so rushed! It is extremely lightweight and doesn’t feel clogging or heavy on the skin.
Rose Flash Balm: This is a multi-use product that works as a moisturizer, primer, or mask! I’ve used it a few times in place of my regular primer. This is a thick product that is more like a moisturizing primer than say, a silicone type of primer. I didn’t find it quite as effective as my regular primer but it wasn’t too bad! Because it’s a 3-in-1 product, it would be really convenient to pack for a short trip, as opposed to taking a moisturizer, primer, and mask. It says it’s suited for all skin types but I think it would be best for someone with dry skin like myself. I haven’t tried using this as a mask.
Rose Ceramide Cream: I’ve been using this cream daily in the AM ever since I received this package. First of all – I love the packaging. I’m not entirely sure how to describe it, but it’s like a hard squeeze tube? They always seem so regal to me for some reason! Anyway, back to the product itself. It’s a lightweight moisturizer that contains rose flower oil, ceramides and probiotics. Thanks to that, it packs a moisturizing punch, despite not being a heavy cream. It is very gentle and calming on the skin and I haven’t noticed any breakouts or clogging of my pores.
Rose Oil Blend: This is my favourite product in the whole line! I’ve been using this nearly every night at bedtime and I believe this is the reason why my face is the only hydrated part of my body this winter. It’s a thick oil in a dropper bottle. I definitely couldn’t use this in the morning as it is quite heavy on the skin. In fact, my skin remains oily and glowy when I wake up in the morning after applying it at night. This is the perfect product for my dry winter skin, though it may be too heavy for anyone with oily skin.
Makeup Fixing Mist: This product claims to prolong makeup wear, while hydrating and balancing the skin. You can spray this before and after applying makeup. I’ve used it both ways and while I haven’t noticed a difference in the longevity of my makeup, it does create a nice, hydrated base to work with. I also like to mist a little on my face after applying my makeup to create a more dewy, glowy look. This is also great if your face is feeling a little tight or dry after all day!
Rose Glow Mist: Of the two sprays, this is my favourite. While they work similarly, the Rose Glow mist contains acids and antioxidants including rose oil, argan oil, and avocado oil. It is meant to calm and soothe the skin, add moisture and set makeup. Oddly enough, the actual mist is must finer on this spray than the Makeup Fixing Mist, which I definitely prefer. I like to spray this in the morning before applying my makeup and at nighttime before applying oil. I think this will be great in the summertime as a mid-day pick-me-up.
Overall Impressions
Overall, I am loving the Pixi Rose Infused Skintreats line for my dry, dehydrated winter skin. Since implementing this skincare line, my face is no longer dry. It feels plump and hydrated 24/7, which is amazing considering how dry and cold this winter has been. The line has a very potent rose scent in all the products which is not my favourite, but isn’t a dealbreaker for me. I will say that it smells like actual roses and not a fake-rose scent. I had a small breakout during the first week I used this line, but I’m not sure if that’s due to hormones or the change in skincare. I’ve had no issues since and in fact, my skin is looking better than ever. If you have similar skin, I’d highly recommend checking out this line!
The Pixi Rose Infused Skincare line can be purchased on the Pixi website or at Shoppers Drug Mart in Canada.
