Pixi Haul from Target


As most of you know, all Target stores are closing up in Canada(saddest news as I love going to Target). A couple of weeks ago, they started their liquidation sale. But since we don't have a Target store at where we are, I have to wait until I go to the city. 

Everything is 40-60% off. Most of the popular drugstore brands cosmetics are pretty much all gone. The most they have got left is Pixi and Sonia Kashuk. I got a few things from Sonia Kashuk a while back when they announced their closing. I got a hair brush and a few of their concealer quads. So this time, I got a few things from Pixi.


Besides that, I also got another Aladdin mason jar mug for my morning smoothie. 


I also got a pair of espadrilles from Mossimo. Shoes are 50% off and these are only $12.99.

When I grabbed this at the store, I only took a quick glance of the package and read creme-gel base and I didn't realize it is a foundation until I read further. The texture is very interesting. It is not cream and it is not gel. It is somewhere in between. It says to give a light to medium natural flawless velvety skin finish. I just tried it the first time today and I am loving it so far. It gives my skin a dewy glow. I applied this with a beauty blender but I think you could get more coverage using a dry sponge. This is perfect for spring weather as I suspect when warmer weather arrives, it wouldn't stay on my oily combo skin for too long.


The other two Pixi products I got are: Natural Brow Duo in Deep Brunette(as that was the only shade available there) and Lid & Line.

The Lid & Line is a 3-in-1 product: eye pencil, eye shadow and a built-in smudger. The shade I got is No.5 Smokey Mink which is a soft brown.

I like the Natural Brow Duo as I like the slanted applicator which is similar to my favorite brow liner, Lioele Auto Brow. The other side is a gel.

I want to test these out soon because if I love the products, I would have to run back to get some more. As Target is leaving Canada, it would be hard to get Pixi products anywhere else here.

Have you used other products from Pixi? What are your favorites?
