Beauty In The Blazer

On Sundays, we cook, clean and replenish our groceries! Annddd today I had to re-up on my Cove Soda the first-ever zero-sugar, organic, full-flavor soda packed with prebiotics that’s as functional as it is nostalgic. Tired of sugary drinks, I craved something better—so we trusted our gut, delivering the classic flavors you love, without the sugar.

If you have the chance to visit the Pixi by Petra store on Century City Mall LA, it’s a must see!!! 💚🩷💚

The store is so beautifully organized and clean and Clarissa Camacho the store manager has the best top-tier customer service you could ask for!

This is 1 of the only 2 Pixi Beauty store locations in the entire world 😱 the products performed so amazing and I’m always mind blown about the price points!!!

If you love, beautiful and healthy, glowing skin, you have to grab some of these products immediately!

Thank you so much to pixie Beauty and Clarissa for the best shopping experience & kindness 🫶🏽

I adore NYX Professional Makeup I believe they make high-quality products for an incredible and affordable price point. However, certain setting sprays that have a sticky finish, in my opinion, should be for skin prep and not setting.

This is a maple syrup based setting spray that has to be shaken up aggressively for ingredients to melt together prior to use. It leaves a very sticky finish on the skin, I do think that in combination with the primer that this product will make your makeup last long. However, the sticky finish attracts pollutants and other things to the skin that I would prefer not to have.

Any spray that makes my skin sticky, is something that I used to prep under the makeup and not on top.

Retailing for only $10, cruelty-free, and vegan. I think this is an amazing product however, I strongly suggest using it for skin prep prior to Makeup and not after to set.



Have you tried this setting spray, what do you think?

Although the day was amazing, I definitely have some notes…..

CONS:
🖤The swag bag was missing a lot of of the items that were promoted to be included.
🖤The GA ticket was $50 vs VIP $250 (plus taxes and fees) they promoted that the VIP would have access to master classes, but upon arrival we learned that not everyone that paid for a VIP ticket would have access to those VIP master classes. We in fact did not get selected for any of the VIP master classes after paying so much, but many GA folks did…. One of the event staff members took pity on us and allowed us to sit in the John class & we were so grateful we could cry (SHOUT OUT TO HER)!!! But didn’t get any of the other classes.
🖤We stood in line for other master classes in hopes to get standby seats, which ate up a lot of the time that we would’ve had exploring the remaining parts of the event. We didn’t get into any of the other classes.
🖤 there was food in the VIP lounge, but we didn’t get any of that either because of the lines and amount of people, the food was gone before we even got to the front.
🖤IT issues with the way that they had people apply for the Keke Pilates class. I clicked the link almost instantly after getting the email and it did not work for me. Same for a few other classes.
🖤Audio issues during the event made the classes a bit hard
