Cartoon Cat-Themed Cosmetics

The Pixi + Hello Kitty Collaboration Celebrates a Global Icon

The Pixi + Hello Kitty Collaboration is the newest launch from Pixi Beauty and this limited-edition collection features the familiar face of a global icon. The nine-piece collection adorns some of the best-selling products from Pixi Beauty with the cartoon cat's iconic bow and some of her favorite ingredients—like apples—have been added to the formulas. A for Apples, for example, is a pack of multi-vitamin infusion sheet masks for a dose of Vitamin A.

Some of the other standouts from the Pixi + Hello Kitty collection include the brand's award-winning Glow Tonic, which is now packaged with a cap in the shape of the 3D cat. Inspired by Hello Kitty's aesthetic, the collab also includes color products like the multi-use Chrome Glow Palette, pigmented Eye Effects and the pH-reactive, moisturizing Lip Tone tint.
