Hourglass ambient light review2/20/2023 ![]() ![]() If you own the previous two palettes there are some repeats in this palette, Dim Light is in the Ambient Lighting Palette and Mood Exposure was in the Ambient Lighting Blush palette. ![]() Swatches of the Ambient Lighting Edit L to R: Dim Ligh, Iridescent Strobe Light, Diffused Light, Mood Exposure, Luminous Flush, Luminous Bronze Light ![]() You can’t really use a big powder brush with this palette or an oversized blush brush, I use the Nars Yachiyo brush for both the powders and blushes and bronzer and it works really well. Now for the size comparison, you can see by the photo above that the pans of the Ambient Lighting Edit are smaller than the previous palettes. The bronzer also gives that glowy look like the blushes without any shimmer. I have the darker version of the bronzer and I love both. Luminous Bronze Light is a great summer bronzer because it gives a sun kissed look to the skin. The bottom row of the palette has: Mood Exposure (soft plum blush fused with mood light to brighten the complexion), Luminous Flush (champagne rose blush fused with luminous light to evoke a candlelit glimmer) and Luminous Bronze Light (medium tan shade fused with luminous light for a softer, candlelit warmth).īoth Mood Exposure and Luminous Flush are beautiful! The Hourglass blush formula is pretty unique to me, they’re one of the only blushes that give a glowy look to your cheeks without any shimmer. I use it to set my under eye concealer and brighten that area but also on my chin and forehead if I like to bring light to that area. When swatches on the hand you can see some shimmer particles but they don’t transfer on the skin.ĭiffused Lightwill probably be a favorite to a lot of people because it’s an awesome brightening powder. It’s a nice switch from your regular gold highlighter and I think will suit most skin tones. Iridescent Strobe Light is a nice pinky subtle highlighter. It just gives a soft look to your face and a subtle glow. I use it as a finishing powder over my setting powder but sometimes I even use it to set my makeup since my skin has been on the normal side. The top row shades are: Dim Light ( neutral peach beige powder that blurs imperfections and highlights the complexion), Strobe Lighting Powder in Iridescent Strobe Light (rose pearl powder that gives a refined glow to the complexion) and Diffused Light (soft, warm, pale yellow powder that conceals redness and gives skin clarity).ĭim Light is a great all over the face powder for my light to medium skin tone. The Ambient Lighting Edit has three Ambient Lighting Powders, two Ambient Lighting Blushes and one Ambient Lighting Bronzer. The two palettes from previous years were only with three, the first one, the Ambient Lighting Palette (which is now part of the permanent line) contains three shades of the Ambient Lighting Powders and the second one was a blush palette with three shades. This year they did something different, they came out with the Ambient Lighting Edit palette which contains six powders. They release the palette before the Holidays so you can either treat yourself or buy it as a gift. Every year Hourglass Cosmetics comes out with a limited edition palette with their best selling powders. ![]()
