   I have this in nr 1. I really like it. I would like the colour to be a bit pinker, but it blends well with my skin and looks great. It is buildable, and still manages to look natural. Set it with powder abnd it lasts well. I really recommend it.

   I have the Flawless Beauty Fluid in No. 1 Cream. It feels thick out of the pump but dries down nicely. It has medium coverage but treads lightly on the skin. Scentless and mildly moisturizing, the formulation looks yellower in the bottle than it looks on the skin.

   The bottle is substantial frosted glass and feels sturdy. I’m not a fan of the plastic green cap and pump, aesthetically it could be better. I think the green plastic is targetting a younger market.

   The foundation is a good formula but not something I’d go out of my way to find. If it were more nicely packaged I would change my mind on this because it would feel like a treat rather than something utilitarian.

   Edit 2/26/2015: I bumped this up a lippy because after alternating between this foundation and my KGD Aqua, the Pixi hands down has longer staying power without getting uncomfortable on the skin.

   I have this in No. 1 as well, although it’s not light enough for me. I use MAC Face & Body foundation in White to lighten it up. I have used it alone though so I could see the true wear of this product.
   This product is very light coverage, but you can build it up. It almost reminds me of a tinted moisturizer. I find myself getting very oily with this so I do have to blot or powder throughout the day. I don’t think it lasts very well throughout the day. I do like that there’s a pump.
   I got this on sale as I believe they discontinued this at Target, not sure about in general.
   I wouldn’t repurchase this simply because I’m a foundation hopper and I know there are better products out there.

   I actually have this product in No 1 (Cream). This is a great foundation for combination skin. It has a matte finish and is thin enough to be breathable but also buildable. For example, it evens out the redness around my mouth and jaw area completely but isn’t overwhelming on my oily t-zone. The color is nice and neutral and doesn’t make my skin look too yellow like many others tend to but it also isn’t overly pink. It provides a fresh, airbrushed look without looking like you’re wearing a mask. It is so easy to use. Most of the time time I just put on moisturizer then this on top and blend in with my beauty blender and my skin is ready to go. I got this product for $9 on clearance at Target but would definitely be tempted to pay full price. Pixi products are so high quality and, in my opinion, highly underrated. The entire line and this product in particular is fresh and easy.

   I have tried the cream compact in the lightest shade and the stick form as well. I was very surprised when both of them were extremely light, almost neutral porcelain in color and had to retort to mixing in mediums to make it fit for my complexion or use them as concealers. Whats odd is that the lightest color is this line is light but fits my warm tone NC15-20 skin perfectly which goes to show that not all formulations are in the same shade. I love this one the most because its not creamy like the other foundations but gives a matte appearance to the skin. I thought the coverage would be light but it covers enough to even out my skin tone and blurs imperfections without making it mask-like. The price kills me. Its like a drop of this is worth a dollar, at least they could of increase the weight in content. Would I buy it? Yes, although there are better and cheaper foundations than this but the color, the texture and its non-sparkly luminosity makes me buy it again.

   I have never been a foundation user, as I always felt most formulations were way too heavy and mask-like for my taste, however, over the course of the past few years I have relented somewhat and began wearing tinted moisturizer. We all know with age unfortunately comes some discoloration, as in my case a few broken capillaries in the check area and a bit of redness around the nose. I absolutely LOVE Pixi products, especially during the spring/ summer seasons, due to the sheerness and brightness that these cosmetics impart. They truly do wake up your face! I decided to try the Flawless Beauty Fluid No. 2 Nude, as the No. 1 looked way too light and the No. 3 looked way too dark. This foundation is very fluid, so if you’re looking for a creamy texture you’re not going to get it with this formulation. The No. 2 still looks very light when pumped out, even for my fair complexion, however, it blended very nicely into the skin and really did blur out any imperfections/redness without heaviness. At $30 bucks a pop I cringed and I’m always saying a silent prayer that Pixi will come down on the prices – yeah right – wishful thinking…I buy a lot of the products, because quite frankly they perform even though they can pinch the pocket book. I diligently try to look for the Pixi clearance items. This is sheer coverage similiar to a tinted moisturizer, sans the moisturizing properties, but it does blur out imperfections nicely. This imparts a matte look, but isn’t drying. I would not recommend most Pixi products for people darker than a medium complexion. They are really designed for fair people. Hopefully this will last me a long time as I only need a small pump of the product. Then perhaps I will not cringe so much at the high price.
