Hi everyone! I didn't actually plan on getting this post up today but I had a little bit of time left over after revision (last exam on Tuesday, actually getting giddy to finish it but I've also been hit by full on exam stress!) so I thought I'd just put it up today while I have a bit of time. It actually makes me so sad how little I've been posting recently but after Tuesday I'm finally free and I can start posting as much as I want again. I really really love Pixi, all the products I have tried of theirs I've really enjoyed using and they've made a difference to my skin. I have the Glow Tonic and loved that, I was after the Glow Mud Cleanser for a while but it was out of stock a lot on Cult Beauty, so when I saw it in Marks & Spencers I picked it up to try.
I've never actually tried a cleanser that is a bit thicker in consistency like this one, but I feel like that is one of the reasons why I actually like it so much. It's described to be a 'brightening and cleansing mud' that 'works to melt the "glue" that binds dulling dead skin cells and debris to skin's surface, revealing the healthy new cells underneath'. Anything that claims to brighten skin I go for because I have such problematic dull tired skin that I will always gravitate more to products that claim to get rid of dead skin and brighten the face.
The consistency definitely isn't like anything I've tried before, it's like a mud when you squeeze it out the tube but once applied to the face I feel like it's more of a gel, and it feels really hydrating, something which I didn't expect from a mud product. I like to use this when I get out the bath and after I've used my Clarisonic. It actually says on the website that you might experience a tingling sensation when you try it, and I can fully say that you definitely do feel this, it was really strange when I first tried it, it's not too full on or uncomfortable though just feels a bit tingly that't all. I quite like this though it makes me feel like it's actually working and doing something! You're supposed to apply it and massage it into the skin for 30 seconds then remove it, I absolutely love this right now, I feel like my skin feels so much more refreshed after using it. When it comes to actually adding radiance I haven't noticed a massive difference yet, my skin definitely feels a lot fresher but I feel like I haven't been using it long enough to see a big difference appearance wise but I do really feel like it's working.
At £18 it definitely isn't cheap, but I really do like it and feel like it is making a difference, I pair it with the Glow Tonic and I really hope that my skin does start to look a lot less dull soon, but it definitely does feel a lot fresher. I absolutely love Pixi, I really want to try more of their products but it's definitely not cheap which is what puts me off though. I've tried a few things though and if you are thinking about buying something from them and trying it out I'd definitely recommend this along with the Glow Tonic, they're a must! Let me know in the comments if you've tried any Pixi products and what you think!
Ohhh I've never tried any of the Pixi products but heard great things about them, especially about the tonic which you mentioned. x Sounds like the consistency is very unusual and interesting, but I'm glad to hear that it's effective, also. Thanks for sharing! Kisses. <3

DeleteI've been dying to get my hands on this but it's been out of stock everywhere online for ages! It sounds lovely and if I like it half as much as Glow Tonic I'll be happy!

It's so good!xx
DeleteAhh dammit, someone in a FB beauty swap group was selling a sample size of this the other day and I decided not to purchase it because I didn't read any reviews for it. Now I regret not picking it up. It's so hard to get Pixi in Canada. :-(

If you get the chance you should definitely try it!x
DeleteI love the glow tonic, I'll need to try this out!

They're so nice paired together!x
DeleteI'm desperate to try Pixi Glow Tonic but still not got round to it. I'd not heard of the mud cleanser until now but it sounds great. My skin often looks dull and lacklustre, especially if I'm tired so this definitely sounds like it's worth giving it a try!
ReplyDeleteKatya | The Beauty Harbour
Both of them are so good!x
DeleteI love mud masks so I bet I'd like a mud cleanser, as well! I haven't tried any Pixi skin care but I've heard its really good, I'll keep my eye out for this! x
ReplyDeletewww.beautyfromkatie.blogspot.com
It's such an interesting product!x
DeleteThis looks so gel like and hydrating from where you've put it on your arm! £18 is a lot of money especially as the bottle looks quite small but if its working for you then it's worth it!

It's actually a really big bottle, you can't really tell in the picture so you get a lot for your money x
DeleteI love the glow tonic too!
ReplyDeleteThe mud cleanser sounds pretty good, I wasn't overly impressed with the cleansing balm, so that put me off this a bit!
It's really good!x
DeleteOhh this sounds divine! I love the Pixi Glow Tonic and never even heard of this before! I'll be picking this up next month as I love anything that removes dead skin cells to reveal fresher, brighter skin x

DeletePixi are so well known for the tonic that it's easy forget about all their other products! It sounds like you are getting on well with this product, hopefully it produces the results you are after!
