It felt surreal when I had the chance to meet Judy Travis of ItsJudyTime and her adorable family back in January. Sheβs one of the OG beauty gurus in YouTube and she also has a daily vlog channel that I follow every morning since roughly before the twins can stitch three words together. Remember βYou want palo?β LOL Iβm a fangirl and I love the baby bears way too much, okay Judy and Benji are not far behindβ¦ So when Pixi Philippines invited me to the launch of Pixi + ItsJudyTime palettes (with a meet & greet!), I almost replied βYes, mommy!β to the email. Almost. Whew!
Anyway, Iβd leave these photos from that special day here so that we can go on with the true purpose of this post β the palettes, silly, donβt let Julianna, Miya and Keiraβs cuteness distract you further.
With the guidance of Petra and Pixi Beauty, Judy and the other #PixiPretties collaborators have created their βdreamβ beauty products that not only represent their individual points of view but parallel Pixiβs philosophy of fuss-free in a few minutes. Judy transitioned to a mom on-the-go (which she does gracefully) who loves glamming herself up from time to time over the years. So I expected her product to be practical, no-nonsense and efficient. And we got it; actually, we got two! A 12-shade eyeshadow palette called ItsEyeTime and its lipstick counterpart called ItsLipTime.
ItsEyeTime β Retailing at Php1,495 at Glamourbox, this eyeshadow palette is very Judy. Do you see it, too? You get equal amounts of matte and shimmer neutral shades, which lean on the warmer side. The colors are pretty true to what is in the pan, and the actual formula is pretty hard to beat β Iβm talking about nice pigment, very blendable and long lasting. The dark shades have better texture compared to some of the light mattes, but all they ever need is a slight boost of an eyeshadow primer.
Order of swatches is from bottom to top, left picture first then right. Sorry, I kinda messed it up.
Snowflake β Light champagne color thatβs really creamy.
Bubbly β Another beautiful shimmery color in gold.
itsmommyslife β My go-to soft, warm brown shade.
Good Morning β Good transitional peach color as itβs sheer enough for that purpose.
Brick β True βbrickβ shade and very pigmented. One of my favorites!
Honey Bear β Typical matte light brown. Good coverage for a matte finish.
Tu Tu β Another favorite! Reddish brown that looks great on brown eyes. Take note!
Getaway β Ahh, look at that rich pigment! Itβs a copper shade with loads of shimmers.
Ping β Deep brown complement of Getaway. Shimmer-wise.
Dark Chocolate β Chocolate brown. βNuff said.
Aww Snap β Brown with slight red undertones. Quite patchy but doable.
Night Night β Black with bluish silver sparkles. I wish itβs more intense and not βsoftβ because blacks are not soft!
ItsLipTime β To start, Iβm a big lipstick girl but not a fan of it in a pan. My old all-in-one palettes have lipsticks still untouched. Maybe I never got into using my fingers to apply, and Iβm all like βwho has time for that?β to look for a lip brush when Iβm rushing in the morning. However, I find that Judyβs take on lip palette is actually good. The colors, albeit not created equal, are beautiful and creamy. The lighter shades require at least two layers using your finger (yes, itβs better than a brush with this palette) for the full opaqueness to show. They are lightweight and with decent wear time. If nude and berry lipsticks are your jam, you get a color for Php125 as this retails for Php1,495 at Glamourbox.
Again, order of swatches is from bottom to top, left picture first then right.
Ta-da β A very sheer, very pale nude. I cannot wear this on its own unfortunately; I think its better to pair with another color to create an ombre look.
Peaches β A peachy kind of nude with a good color payoff.
Julianna Bear β JB! LOL Itβs a pinkier nude, very versatile and everybody can wear it.
Milk Chocolate β This one looks soft brown on my arm yet sheer dusty pink on my lips.
Kiera Bear β The rosy peach twin. It looks similar to Ate JB. LOL
Miya Bear β The muted rose bordering brown twin.
B Did It β Barbie pink with just enough brightness.
Falling Leaves β My favorite! Like the warmness Autumn color on my lips.
Chewy β Describing shades is tough! Does this look like reddish Miya Bear to you? It does to me.
Fierce β A deep berry. Perfect for night outs, but then again I donβt do night outs. Haha
Sweet Cherry β Classic red shade. Because itβs not a lipstick palette without it.
Sultry β Intense wine red. Another favorite because it has the most perfect formula from the bunch.
Wearing Pixi + itsjudytime ItsLipTime Get The Look Palette in Fierce
While I think they are good travel palettes, the Pixi-signature light green packaging has a flimsy clear cover. It feels like a toy, which was the first thing that came into my mind. I appreciate the mirror you can stick on though, thatβs a lovely bonus.

Overall, Iβd bring these when I go on vacations because itβs practical, I cannot complain that I cannot find a suitable eyeshadow or lipstick shade. But not when Iβm going to have a long day here in the city, because imagine if I need to retouch my lipstick and a whip out a palette β a bullet is just easier, right? Get them because the darker shades (in both palettes) pack quite a punch, or if you need new colors to play around with, or if like me, you feel the need to get every makeup with Judyβs approval. Haha!
