Spotlight on Pop and Pixi Beauty & 30% Discount

About two years ago, we started hearing about a UK-based cosmetics company who was looking to expand in the US market. I had purchased a POP Beauty Eye Cake from Sephora a few years ago, but I didn’t know anything about them

Then I heard that Target was getting into Masstige cosmetics with their launch of Pixi by Petra, and someone told me that the company was based here in Los Angeles. Next thing I knew, Andrew Knox was recruited to join the company as their COO. It took diligence, a lot of patience, and over a year, but we have finally begun a great working relationship with this burgeoning company.

With two unique lines and a fresh view of where distribution in the cosmetics industry is headed, we’re really excited to see how successful this company becomes. Check out more information on POP and Pixi Beauty below along with a special 30% discount for our readers!!!

Profiles on Pop & Pixi …

Petra is Pixi.

The creative, unstoppable force behind Pixi, Petra Strand launched the company 10 years ago in London by opening the first Pixi boutique in SoHo.

With over 20 years of makeup artistry experience, Petra spends most of her time formulating products, hand mixing colours, and designing packaging. Her main mission is to make women look like themselves, only better! The passion is also to simplify women’s beauty routines with easy to use, multi-purpose products in highly effective formulas all infused with skin loving ingredients.

As a mother of 2 and a busy cosmetic empire to run, Petra is inspired to help working women and mothers to look awake, fresh and pulled together with quick and fun products to treat skin and provide that “just had a good night’s sleep” look.

Petra believes that Pixi is a style of beauty – providing beautiful, simple, and effective solutions for the busy woman over 30. The Pixi philosophy is to make you look drop dead gorgeous with little effort – sheer classic beauty with a Pixi twist!

Pop Beauty creator Sara Strand has never had a problem getting noticed. With a flair for the dramatic, this Swedish-born, “London grown”, makeup artist & performing artist and now cosmetic mogul found her passion for color on stage as a young performer and today, she brings you POP as art, fashion and music! Sara describes it as “bringing makeup artistry to the street!”

Through her experience behind the scenes at runway shows and photo shoots and after years of research Sara soon realized she wanted to create her own brand to fit her needs as an artist and performer. She says, “I wanted to do something unique and edgy, create a bit of pretty punk – something to take you from drab to fab – to make heads turn and to pump the volume up a notch!

Sara named the brand based on her industry experience and years as an artist. The word “pop”, in addition to its musical connotations, is a makeup artist term used to describe the colour that makes the face come alive, the ultimate finishing touch and the icing on the cake!
From skin perfecting flaw fixers like Face Magnet Primer, to tan poppers like Double Duty Bronzer, and colour coordinated “on the go” Clutch Collections, POP has something for everyone and can definitely add some “pop” to your makeup routine!
