Still being on the discovery of new brands and new products, I have come across some amazing new brands that I just want to know about. One of those brands is Lixir, one I was introduced to at a Liberty Press Day and something I am really thankful for.
Lixir was founded by Colette Haydon, a doctor in dermo-pharmacy who, until now I had never heard of like many of you who read this post. However, Colette is the kind of person I feel we probably know more about than we realise because she has formulated beauty products some incredible brands which include HealGel, REN and Jo Malone to name a few. Now we have Lixir, a brand which is incredibly instagrammable in which is referred as its Millennial Pink packaging which is every bit as plain as it is pretty. Made up of just 6 products, Lixir is designed to simply fit into your life, your routine and just maybe become your favourite product.
Universal Emulsion is a product which is made for using everywhere. As far as Lixir are concerned there is no such thing as a cream which is good for a bit of your skin and not the other РUniversal Emulsion is for the face, eye contour, lips, neck, d̩collet̩, arms and hands. Described as being a smart moisturiser, Universal Emulsion uses a unique emulsifying technique to deliver what is referred to as molecular water to the skin and boost its ability to retain it. We all know that one way to improve how your skin looks is to up the intake of water, something that is so simple, yet many of us just don't do it, well Universal Emulsion is not only water based, it also has something quite unique and that is the formulation which uses a unique emulsification technique to deliver an SPF of 10 without adding actual sunscreen so you can use it at night too and it also protects against pollution and other environmental aggressors.
On the skin, the texture is really light whilst being incredibly hydrating and admittedly with the term 'Emulsion' being used, I was expecting something a little thicker, that said it glides onto my skin and leaves it feeling both plump and soft. There is no greasiness but it does leave a dewy hue and although this cream can be used anywhere, I have stuck to using it on my face, neck and decolletage but when I am a little ambitious with squeezing too much out of the tube, it is good to know that it is not wasted because I can use it elsewhere. I love that there is a delicate rose scent to the cream which slowly disappears over time.
I have absolutely loved using this Universal Emulsion from Lixir and can fully understand the hype behind how it looks and what it does and now I feel I need to discover what else Lixir has to offer. Priced at £29 for 50ml and £40 for 100ml you can find Lixir and the rest of the Lixir products stocked in Victoria Health and Liberty.
