❓ Frequently Asked Questions

What does "Imperfect Box" mean?
The foundation stick inside is 100% full-quality, unused, and intact — the outer packaging may have minor cosmetic flaws like creasing or scuffs. The product itself is completely unaffected.

What coverage level does this provide?
The On-the-Glow BASE offers sheer, buildable coverage. One swipe gives a natural, skin-like finish. Layer it in specific areas or blend a second pass all over for more coverage — it never looks heavy or cakey.

How does Espresso compare to similar deep shades?
Espresso is a rich, deep neutral — sitting between Mahogany (deep brown, warm) and Chestnut (rich, deep cool). It’s ideal for deep complexions that lean neutral and want a true-to-skin finish without warmth or coolness pulling too strongly.

Can I blend two shades together?
Yes! Pixi designed this range so you can mix two shades directly on your skin for a perfectly bespoke match. Simply swipe both and blend together with fingertips or a brush.

Do I need a primer underneath?
Not necessarily — it works beautifully on moisturized skin alone. However, applying over a primer can extend wear and enhance the finish, especially for oily skin types.

Is this suitable for dry or oily skin?
Yes — it’s formulated for all skin types. The nourishing formula is comfortable on dry skin, while the lightweight, breathable texture prevents heaviness on oily skin. Those with oily skin may want to set with a light powder for longer wear.
