Girl Talk Day with Weylie!

It was a Pixi perfect day at our Pixi Boutique! We enjoyed spending the day with Weylie & some of the loyal lovelies that have followed her (and Pixi!) throughout the years! Weylie had some girl talk with all of them, which was fun and filled with wisdom. Highlight of the day was when Weylie sat down with the girls and had a more personal Q&A. Weylie talked about how she finds balance within her own life, how she has become more confident over the years (both on & off YouTube), as well as how she enjoys using the Dimensional...

Summer Smoky Eye - Copper!

    Smoky eyes are always stunning, but can be a bit harsh in the summer light. One of my favourite ways to lighten up a black or very dark eye is by using copper hues! The shade's warm undertones look great with glowing, tanned skin and can really make any eye colour pop!   Rosie Huntington-Whiteley looked gorgeous at the Cannes Film Festival with this coppery-bronze smoky eye and a touch of tan on her cheeks.       You just need a few tools to get the perfect copper smoky eye!     Find Mesmerizing Mineral Palette in...
