Both the Glowtion Day Dew and Beauty Sleep Cream come in a sleek and long tube packaging but has a nice, pump dispensor with a cap on top. I carried both of them when I was travelling and they are perfectly safe for travel and very handy.

I quite like the packaging, very convenient and easy to use.

Coming to the product, Glowtion Day Dew is a white colored cream with very fine shimmer particles in it and a lot of them! That is the reason it gives that day glow. I like using it under a makeup base though, when used on it’s own, it gives a shine to the entire face and it can look oily at times.

Even though the Day Dew has mica and kaolin which absorbs oil and it is on the drier side, i.e. the cream is not very rich and feels dry on the skin, the shimmer gives that shiny look. Dry skin girls will like using this because of the dewy finish it gives, might not work for oily skin on it’s own. But this is excellent as a makeup base and I am using it every single time!

The Beauty Sleep Cream on the other hand is very light weight and blends and absorbs in a jiffy. I love the mango butter feel and lavender oil scent, it smells really good and I love using this each night! It does moisturize but it is nothing like rich night creams, so if you are used to those, you might needed an added oil for extra hydration.

I sometimes just add the Glow Mist on top. It is one of the lightest night creams I have used.

Both have a different colored pump, so it is easy to identify as their body packaging is similar.

The only con for both of these would be the quantity, 35ml I feel is quite less for the price. Even though the brand is premium, a little extra quantity would have been great.

24K Eye Elixir

Claims: An anti-fatigue peptide serum that that massages away puffiness as it smooths and refreshes the eye area

• This multitasker is infused with powerful age-defying ingredients to refresh eyes & prevent signs of fatigue
Collagen helps to repair the delicate eye area, peptides plump fine lines, and raspberry tones skin
• Cooling rollerball applicator soothes & encourages circulation around the eye

How to Apply

Use: AM & PM
• Step 1: Gently roll applicator under eye, from inner to outer corner, 2 to 3 times
• Step 2: For extra de-puffing, chill before use

This is very handy and easy to use, I love these roller ball eye elixirs/pens. It has a steel roller ball and dispenses very little product, enough for one roll from left to right and then from right to left. There is no wastage of product.

Now this doesn’t claim anything related to dark circles, it is for puffiness and fine lines. So don’t expect it to work on dark circles, it won’t. I don’t have fine lines, so can’t talk about that. But I haven’t had puffiness under my eyes or under eye bags, since the time I am using it.

If you suffer from bloating or have excess salt at times, there would usually be puffy bags under your eyes. And if you have those often, I would suggest getting this and keeping it in your fridge and using it morning and night. You will notice an immediate difference.

I quite like it, works as per claims.

I think the Glow Mist is my most favourite out of all these four products and also something I have used the most.

I use it morning, night, after makeup, etc., and each time gives a nice, dewy, glowy finish to the skin. After my skincare routine and after my makeup too.

It takes away all the powdery-ness when used after makeup, and sets it in place. It can also be used mid time to refresh your makeup.

Since this is not just thermal spring water and has a blend of different essential oils in it, it hydrates and nourishes and that’s what helps in that glowing skin.

I absolutely love this and highly recommend this.

My favourites/must haves are the Glow Mist and the Beauty Sleep Cream, followed by the Eye Elixir and the Glowtion Day Dew.

Pixi Beauty products are available on their website pixibeauty.co.uk and pixibeauty.com, Target and they also have their own stand alone stores.

Kama Ayurveda Pure Lavender Water Review

Kama Ayurveda Pure Lavender Water Face & Body Mist Review

What the Company claims: Pure Lavender Water face & body mist

Handpicked from the wild in the Himalayas, this lavender water has unparalleled soothing properties that provides an instant boost to the skin and reduce stress. An excellent facial toner, it cools & refreshes in hot weather.  The steam distillation process used to create this wonderful water ensures a high level of hygiene and purity.

100% Natural

MRP: Rs.725/- for 200ml

It also comes in a smaller travel sized version I believe..

Kama Ayurveda already has a rose water which is like quiet famous and their one of the most selling products..so now they also came up with Lavender water..

I, personally love lavender more than rose..so if I have to choose, I would go with Lavender.

It comes in a brown tinted plastic bottle with a nozzle spray and a plastic cap..the packaging is quite sturdy, travel friendly and good..no issued with the spray.

Kama Ayurveda Waters i.e rose, lavender, vetiver, sandalwood and mogra all act as toners basically. And purest forms of toner..

Love the lavender smell. It soothes and refreshes instantly..and is a must have in my bag in this scorching heat.

Pros:

1. Love the lavender smell.

2. Soothing and refreshing.

3. Very convenient to use..and the travel sized bottle would be perfect for travel.

4. Good sturdy packaging and spray.

5. Must have for summers.

6. Lavender Essential Oil also helps in insomnia..and I also spray it every night, just before sleeping 🙂

Cons:

1. Little expensive..but I guess this 200 ml would last real long..coz I am using it everyday..and its not even 10% empty yet..so totally worth it.

Overall, I would say, it is not something that makes tall magical claims..it is meant to soothe and refresh the skin..and give the skin a boost in these horrible summers..and it does exactly that.

You can choose any Kama Ayurveda Water out of the five, depending on your choice. I love Lavender and I would be sticking to this 😀

Rating:

Quality: 4/5
Value for money: 4/5
Availability: 4/5

Overall Rating: 4/5

Would I buy it again: Yes
