This Pixi’s an Early Bird

November 27th, 2012 by Karen 17 Comments

Did I tell ya that I’m trying this new thing where I wake up at 4:30 in the morning?! I’m going to see if I can turn myself into an early bird. I’m definitely NOT a morning person, but I love the idea of getting lots of stuff done before sunrise. We’ll see how long it lasts…

Maybe I should wear the new Pixi Early Bird Kit ($34) to commemorate this new experiment. 🙂

You can find the Early Bird Kit at Target, target.com and pixibeauty.com.

    4.30, huh? What time do you go to bed? I am a night owl so when I have to get up at 4 am for work on the weekends it’s a huge struggle.

    Oh WOW, 4:30?! I can’t even wake up at 7:30! I admire your new strategie, sounds really good, getting things done before sunrise! At what time will you going to bed then? The Pixi palette looks beautiful 🙂

    I often wake up around 4 – 5am (not really on purpose, it’s just what my body wants to do). I really like it – the world is so quiet and you really can get a lot done!

    In my dream world, I wake up at 4.30, brew a pot of tea, read and respond to work e-mails, write for an hour, then go to gym at 6am, workout for an hour and get to work by 10am. In reality, I wake up at 6.30am and get to work by 9.30am with no gym in between 🙁

    You’re inspiring me to try the 4.30am route though 🙂

    Well I work full time – 9 to 6 so I wake up early. Max by 6:30 AM.

    The colors in this palette are lovely, I love subtle colors. Plus it has everything here. Eye shadows, bronzer, blush. I wonder what’s the size when it’s folded & held in hand. Can we have a picture of that too? 🙂

    I have this as I’m a big fan of Pixi for everyday wear (I am also pale as all get out, these two facts are correlated) – but for the life of me I still can’t figure out what the middle row of beige-colored matte shadows are for!

    I found the blushes and contour shades awesome for pale skin, the eyeshadows soso but good for work, and whatever those things are? No idea. 😛

    4:30! Wow! Maybe I should try that- there never seems to be enough time in the day. I really like that pixie pallet. Such pretty colors!

    I love waking up at 4:30 or 5:00- before anyone else in my house. So relaxing and it’s my favorite time of the day.

    I have a hard time getting up at 8! I can’t even imagine 4:30.

    As for the palette, one of my favorite things about it is that it’s all pressed powder. They didn’t sneak in any creams or glosses. I like that.

    EEK, that’s too early and I’m an early bird! I haven’t tried Pixi… is this the target line?

    That kit looks great for neutrals and reaching for something quick in the mornings. I wake up at 430am for work, my shifts currently are 7am to 7pm, though I have done every shift offered and did nights for several years before switching to days (night shift takes years off your life). I sleep in till about 8am, I’m not really much for early mornings unless I HAVE to be up. Kudos to you for trying to make it work, though!

    I’m still up at 4:30 most days!! 😛 But I REALLY need to fix my sleep schedule–it’s starting to get out of control! I need more sleep!!! This Pixi palette is pretty. I had never tried anything from Pixi before but I bought some shadows several months ago and the quality is definitely not bad! I might have to check this palette out!

    I considered picking this up today while in Target–I’m having to replace some of my eye makeup, moisturizers, and contact lens container because I wound up getting pinkeye from visiting nieces and nephews at Thanksgiving. It’s smaller than I expected for a palette, but the neutrals would replace what I am now short on.

    Oh, wow! Good for you on the early wake up. I just can’t get to bed early enough to feel good about getting up early. I’m a 5:50 AM (workday) rising gal and it’s painful. There’s not much I enjoy more than sleeping in. 🙂 I think it’s awesome if it works for you, though. I’m sure you’ll be amazed by how much you can get accomplished!

About Makeup and Beauty Blog

Welcome to Makeup and Beauty Blog
Hi there! I’m Karen, your friendly neighborhood beauty addict, and I’m a Bay Area girl who hoards brown eyeshadow and covets coral lipstick. Every morning, I wake up and say, “I’m going to do something other than a smoky eye today.” Then…I end up doing a smoky eye anyway (most days). When I’m not putting on makeup, taking pictures of makeup or writing about makeup, which I’ve been doing daily since 2007 (!), you’ll find me hanging out with my hubby (“El Hub”), my four-year-old daughter (Connor Claire) and my torbie girl cat (Pretty Girl Rosie, a.k.a. PGR).
