Before we begin, I must state that I received these palettes courtesy of Pixi Beauty. That being said, as always, the below opinions are entirely unbiased and my own!
I’m pretty stoked to write this review because I have truly fallen in love with the Pixi brand in the past couple of years. I swear by their Glow Tonic and the highlights they released with Aspyn Ovard were UNREAL. Soooo smooth! I knew I was in for a treat when I got these palettes in the mail.
They sent me their two newest Eye Reflections eyeshadow palettes in ‘Reflex Light’ and ‘Natural Beauty’. ‘Reflex Light’ is made up entirely of shimmers while ‘Natural Beauty’ has five shimmers and seven mattes. Pixi really knows how to do shimmer powder products and the formula of every shimmer shade here is on point. They blend beautifully, apply well wet and most importantly don’t blend or fall away throughout wear. The matte powders were a new experience for me, though. They are just as good. They blend well and hold pigment through blending and don’t apply patchily. Even the darker shades!
There is one other Eye Reflections palette called ‘Mixed Metals’ that I have yet to try but it leans berry and is mostly shimmers with two or three matte shades. After loving these two palettes, I’m certain I’d like that one as well.
Each Eye Reflections eyeshadow palette is $24 and you can buy Pixi products on their website, www.pixibeauty.com or at Target.

Happy Tuesday guys!
Today I’m sharing another outfit from South Moon Under featuring this sick belt bag by Jules Kae. With the bag, I paired one of the best lippies on the market, Bite Beauty’s Amuse Bouche lipstick in ‘Kale’.
I’ve also got some pretty shadow on my lids that I will be sharing with you all tomorrow!
This look was so comfy, while also maintaining its edge. I can totally see myself wearing it a lot as it gets warmer here in Raleigh!
Hey there! Hope all is well.
Over the past month, I have been trying out a new shampoo/conditioning combination. My hair seemed to be begging for a change-up after using my fave combo for over three years.
When I walked through the hair care aisle at Target, my millennial instinct kicked in– I saw these perfectly blush-toned, squeezy tube products featuring a name I’ve been familiar with for a long time: Kristin Ess!
Yes, that’s right. Lauren Conrad’s longtime hairstylist has released a hair care and style line at Target. The packaging is minimal and the hype is REAL.
At $10 a pop, they are not the cheapest option out there but if you prioritize your hair care like me, they’re not too bad a deal. I want to be sure that the money I’m spending on my hair color isn’t wasted with cheap products that I apply 2-3 times a week.
Initially, I was turned off by the strong floral scent that was more apparent with the conditioner. I’m sensitive to scents and don’t use anything with a heavy scent and this was indeed heavy. By the second wash, though, I was over it. I don’t even smell these on my head anymore!
There are a couple of options of washing products in this line but I went for the Signature line because it’s slightly clarifying and I wanted assistance clearing away any gunk in my hair. My hair feels bouncy and lifted whenever I use this stuff.
If you want to try it out before taking the plunge on the full sizes, there are travel-sized bottles you can pick up for a couple of bucks.
Next on my list is a styling product from Kristin’s line. Guys. There are SO MANY products in this line. From purple and dry shampoos to pomades, salt sprays, scalp products, leave-in conditioners, serums, mousses and glosses. There are also combs, blow dryers and other heat styling tools. Seriously. SO MANY products. I started off well with this shampoo and conditioner and I’m excited to try things out from all stretches of the line.
