Winter Skincare: Day 1 – The Pixi Skintreats
If you haven't yet heard of Pixi, where have you been? Their Glow Tonic (included in your Beauty Secrets Advent Calendar) has cult status, and they have very recently announced a skincare line collaboration with one of the world's most iconic facialists and bloggers, Caroline Hirons.
Their Skintreats line contains all the products you need in your skincare routine to help give you a glowing and gorgeous complexion. Formulated with only the finest ingredients and designed with your healthiest skin in mind, each one works in synergy with your skin's needs to deliver exactly what it needs.
5 Cult Pixi Products Your Skin Needs
With winter temperatures well and truly setting in, your skincare routine needs an overhaul. More hydrating products coupled with regular exfoliation will ensure your complexion stays looking its best throughout the colder months.
Pixi Glow Tonic
Known as THE cult product, the Pixi Glow Tonic is everything you need for a glowing and healthy complexion. You can read about it in detail here, but as a snapshot, it contains a blend of botanical extracts including Red Ginseng and Aloe Vera, alongside Glycolic Acid to renew your skin, remove dead skin cells and perfect your complexion.

Pixi Rose Oil Blend
During the winter months, adding in a lightweight oil, especially when its Rosehip will work wonders on your complexion. This one from Pixi also contains Sweet Almond and Jojoba Oils, which are incredibly rich in Vitamin E to help condition and protect your skin against environmental aggressors.
Add a couple of drops into your regular moisturiser (or the Pixi Glowtion Day Dew for a glowing complexion, but more on that later...), and your skin will thank you.
Pixi Glow Mud Mask
You might think that in the winter months, all your skin needs is hydration, hydration, hydration. The reality is somewhat a little different. Your skin also needs a level of gentle exfoliation to help buff away dead skin cells and the accumulation of more moisturising products. The Pixi Glow Mud Mask is great for this as it can be used as a 2-in-1 skin treatment.
A blend of Kaolin Clay and Sea Salt help to draw impurities out of the skin and fight breakouts at their source to leave your complexion feeling renewed and luminous.
Pixi Glowtion Day Dew
In winter, we tend to apply a lot more products than usual as we try and compensate for the lost moisture and hydration. Finding a product therefore that has a multi-functional purpose of giving your skin a healthy glow and infusing it with moisture is a dream come true.
The Pixi Glowtion Day Dew is great to be used as both a primer and lightweight day cream, as it contains the healing extract of Lavender to soothe the skin, and Mica to illuminate and brighten your complexion.
Pixi 24K Eye Elixir
Keeping your skin healthy in winter is important, especially the delicate skin underneath your eyes. That skin is usually the first to show signs of fatigue, dehydration and stress, so upping your routine will keep your eyes looking bright and gorgeous.
The Pixi 24K Eye Elixir contains Gold Extract, Collagen and Raspberry to boost the elasticity of the skin and soothe stressed-out and tired eyes so you look more like yourself. Plus, the cooling rollerball feels calming against the skin and will instantly awaken and revive you.
