I've been using Diffused Light for the past month, and I can safely say that this has made a huge difference to the look of my skin. It looks radiant and fresh and has a beautiful brightness about it that I've never achieved with a product before.
The Packaging: It comes packaged in a weighty case which is a bronzy colour. It's pretty and shiny and has the Hourglass logo on the bottom right hand corner. It has a mirror inside which is handy, and the powder looks absolutely stunning - like a soft pillow of delight! What I love the most about the packaging is how it has a 'tab' on the bottom right hand corner to make it so easy to open. Oh, and when you close it, I'm sure it whispers the words 'luxury'...
The Product: The powder to begin with has a slight curve to it, and looks oh so soft to touch. You get a lot of product for your money, and after the first use, it's obvious that it will last you a LONG time, even if you're like me and plan on using it every day. You get 10 grams of product, which again I think is very good value for the results it gives.
On The Skin: Diffused Light works perfectly on my light skin tone. It brightens my face and helps to smooth out the couple of patches of pigmentation I have on my cheeks. It doesn't settle into any lines which means that it works really well under the eyes if you need to set concealer or corrector. The pores around my nose area are maybe a bit larger than the norm? but I don't notice that this makes them look any more noticeable. I also have combination skin, and find that this powder - even though it is radiant, doesn't make me look shiny. Instead it leaves a beautiful soft radiance. It feels very light, and always amazes me when I put it on as my last step because it really is like adding a filter to your face!
I'm definitely going to be checking out the 'Wardrobe' next, then it'll be onto the blusher and concealer...
If you've been trying to decide on one of these powders, I seriously can't recommend it enough! Just do your research properly so that you pick the absolute best fit for your skin tone / type.
Ive owned Dim Light for about 5 months now and I must say it was so worth the splurge. I used this everyday and it doesn't even look like I made any dent in the pan since I need is a small amount. I use Dim Light as my finishing powder and apply it lightly with a tulip brush all over my face. I also use this on days that I have little to know makeup on. I always put a pore filling primer on with or with out makeup so applying this on top adds the extra touch to blurring my pores and fine lines. I dont ever want to go with out this powder.
Tips: Buy it!
