I was on twitter a few weeks ago asking my fellow Twittorians if anyone could recommend something that would transform my dull, blemished skin into a more radiant, glowing canvas, and of course twitter always delivers due to the absolutely amazing bloggers, youtubers, beauty babes etc. that are out there and willing to share their tips and secrets.
I hear you all asking ‘so what was the verdict?’ well … after a few suggestions the Pixi Glow Tonic led the race by a mile, quite a few people advised me to use it and that it works miracles especially on acne prone skin which is actually something i’ve been lucky enough not to have to deal with but just like everyone else I do get break outs so if it helps tackle those spots, i’m there!
So bless my wonderful mam after taking me shopping for my birthday gifts she kindly bought me the Glow Tonic, even though she had no clue what it was or what it did, even after I explained how I was gonna use it … so cute. Ooo I thought I would mention that we actually got mine at Marks & Spencers of all places, who knew they had an amazing selection of skin care brands? Not to sound narrow minded or anything but I kinda thought M&S was just food and clothes for the older generations but hey i’ll be the first to put my hands up and say that I was wrong.
As soon as it was time for my night time skin regime I whipped that bad boy out and put it to work, one thing I actually didn’t know about the tonic was that it gets rid of all the dead skin cells on your face which I was so excited to read because that just sounds amazing doesn’t it, like all that crap on your face is just destroyed, yes please. After using the Glow Tonic for a few weeks now (I like to test this kinda stuff out for a while before giving you guys my thoughts) let me just tell you it’s amazing, remember when I said it’s suppose to work miracles, well it does just that. My skin has actually never felt so soft without having to apply a moisturiser at the end of my routine but here I am, no moisturiser in sight but with skin that feels like a cloud … okay slight exaggeration but you feel me right?
I find it so weird if i’m honest, I apply the tonic to a cotton pad and go over my face in circular motions but at the end the pad isn’t actually dirty or full of crap like you would think if your dead skin is coming off but just by touching my face I can tell the difference and that it’s working, so strange. It also smells really nice too, it has like a fresh, floral scent which isn’t overpowering which is great for me ‘cos i’m not really a big fan of those type of fragrances but I quite like it so thumbs up from me.
Now i’m gonna be honest it’s not the cheapest product, I mean some of you may think it’s not expensive if you’re used to splurging on skin care but £18 is a little bit extra than what I would usually pay and I know I didn’t actually buy it but let me tell you once this bottle has finished I 100% will be getting it again, from my own money.
This is a great product, but if you want a good lower cost alternative, Freedom do a dupe for this and it’s only £6.00. I’ve been testing it out and having really good results so far xx
Ooo really I’ll definitely have to have a look for that and see what it’s like! Thank you so much 😊 xx
You’re welcome, I’m quite a bargain hunter haha. I’m surprised it’s not talked about much in the blogging world, because it’s a really good product. It’s their Pro Studio Glycolic Radiance Tonic. You can buy it in Superdrug xx
I love a good bargain haha so I thank you for finding this! I’m 100% going to be on the look out xx
Ooh, I’ve heard awesome things about this product! So cool to hear that it worked for you! I will have to check it out!!
XOXO,

Thanks for this. I’m usually hearing about toners but never tried them but I think I might give it a shot! Seems to really work and that’s awesome, just what I need!
Your welcome and I always include a toner in my routine especially if I’ve been wearing make up 😊 hope you love them as much as I do!
This is the glycolic toner that set everyone off on glycolic toners! I need to try it out at some point, clearly.

Haha I’d definitely recommend you try it 😊 thank you for your lovely comment! X
I have seen so many people using this! Great review! I definitely want to try some new products for my skincare routine! Thank you for sharing! X
Thank you so much and if you manage to try it let me know what you think 😊 xx
I’ve never heard it this but I’ll have to look into it. I’ve been wanting to work on my skincare so this is really helpful.
I’m so glad I could introduce you to it 😊 thank you so much for your comment!
I eye this product every time I am in Target and I can’t decide if I want it. I keep hearing it’s pretty good, but words like “glow” put me off because my skin is so oily.
Great post! x

I don’t think you should be put off by it lovely, the product has a drying effect too so I think it could probably help with your oily skin 🤞🏻 let me know if you do end up trying it 😊 thank you so much for your comment x
Great product review. How long would you say it took until you noticed a difference?
Thank you so much and probably about 3 weeks it took for me to notice 😊
I cannot live without this stuff!! Really notice a difference (not in a good way) if I stop using it x
Ahh I’m so glad you like it too! Have you tried any other Pixi products? X
Yes I also use the Glow Mud Mask regularly. Ive tried a fair few other Pixi products but the tonic and the mask work the best with my skin. The rose oil blend is beautiful but just a bit heavy for my skin. The glycolic Serum seems to strong for me but applied nicely. X
Oh wow you’ve tried quite a few, I’ve only tried the glow tonic so think I might take a look at the mask 😊 thank you 💙 x
You’re welcome! I want to try some of the hydrating products next I think x
Ooo if you do let me know how they are 😊 x
