Pixi Skintreats Rose Caviar Essence Review



Surprise surprise!  As you probably expected to have a lip product reviewed on a Monday, I'm moving it a bit on latter part of the week because I have been so busy last week testing out new products at the same time attending meetings, events and parties here and there I wasn't able to take photos for you!  

So today, on a Monday, I am still sharing a pick-me-upper I get to try in the name of PIXI!

Pixi may be known for their makeup line but they do have a couple of bestselling skincare products --- ONE BIG EXAMPLE is the success of the Pixi Glow Tonic!

Under the Pixi Skin Treats Skincare Collection, I got my hands (literally) on the Rose Caviar Essence.

AMW says --- 

Pros
  • Packaging.
  • The slight rose scent is wonderful.
  • Lightweight texture.
  • Non-greasy.
  • Works for all skin types.
  • Absorbs quickly.
  • Skin feels soft and smooth.
  • No allergic reactions.
  • No animal testing.
Cons

  • Since the name says Rose Caviar, please do not expect the product to have true caviar, I think the brand is calling it a caviar comparing the flower "eggs" to have a similar texture as that of a caviar.
  • Hydration will not be enough for those with dry skin condition.

Overall
A nice product to add to your skincare regimen but you don't see immediate result!  Have to use this together with other skincare products to maximize the benefits.

Tips

  • Best used after cleansing and toning.  
  • Use moisturizer to "seal in" the essence.
  • The product feels a bit tacky at first application, wait for a minute before the product gets completely absorbed before you apply the next skincare product.
  • Best used day and night.
  • Gently massage on skin and the "rose caviar" will disappear.  

Will I repurchase?
No.  I personally have a lot of other products to test but this is nice for those who really enjoy using Essences to boost up their other skincare products.

To whom do I recommend this to?
Works for all skin types and for those who like to have an extra boost of Hydration that keeps skin soft and smooth.

Where to purchase and how much?
Available at www.glamourbox.ph and select Watsons, SM and Landmark Department Stores priced at Php1,295.00.

Gel-type consistency with "Rose Caviar Eggs" that pops and disappears upon application.

Swatch:
The Rose Petal-like texture disappears without leaving a mark.

I like to apply product after cleansing and toning and gently massage on my face.  The rose scent will go away around a minute or so!  Very cooling and relaxing.

Before and After
You don't see much difference but in person, skin feels smoother, looks more hydrated and on days, my skin looks a bit brighter - could be my imagination but I'm loving it!

Overall, this is a great product to have but not necessarily needed.
I like how my skin glows on random days that I consistency use such product!
