PIXI GLOW TONIC

I think it's fair to say that Pixi Glow Tonic has become quite an iconic product. So many bloggers, vloggers and skincare experts seem to use it and rave about it. I knew about this product before I even knew about the brand, so here's a snippet about them. Pixi was created by Petra Strand over ten years ago and is a London based skin and cosmetic company born out of her passion to bring out the natural beauty in all women in a flawless, fuss-free few minutes.
I was really intrigued about this product so I thought I'd give it a go!

It is designed to be used instead of, or as well as, your normal toning product after cleansing. It contains glycolic acid, a naturally derived ingredient from sugar cane, which exfoliates and tones the skin. This is a great ingredient for those skin types which suffer from acne breakouts, pigmentation, open pores and blackheads. It safely and gently removes the outer layer of dead skin cells and contains Aloe Vera to soothe and Ginseng to boost the skin and make it more energized and healthy looking. Sounds good right?


I've been using the natural tonic for a few months now and I alternate it with my usual Liz Earle go to toner a few nights a week and I LOVE it! It makes my skin feel revived and looking far healthier than it used to. I was initially unsure about the aroma but I've got used to it now. I initially used it twice a day morning and night but for me it felt too much so I've reduced it to every few days and I prefer to use it in the evenings so that I get rid of the dead skin cells and allow my skin to renew itelf overnight. By morning, my skin is brighter and so soft.
I like the nature of acid toning and if your not a fan of a beaded, gritty exfoliator, this product does the job without upsetting sensitive skins. I suffer from the dreaded hormonal breakouts and I'm a very good student of Caroline Hirons and she always advises using an acid toner. It gives my skin more of a fresh, healthy appearance and during the colder Winter months, I'm all up for any products that help my skin look like it did go on holiday. Once.

You can buy this product from them directly Pixi and from Cult Beauty.
 
This really is a lovely product and it does deliver. Have you tried it? What did you think?

Until next time, Steph x
