Sheer magic!

Hourglass Ambient Lighting Powder is a true game-changer, and I can't stop raving about it to all my friends. This product is sheer magic in a compact, and it's not just a part of my daily routine; it's a staple in my makeup collection. The finely milled powder imparts a soft-focus, luminous glow that blurs imperfections and adds an airbrushed finish to my skin. It's the secret to that lit-from-within radiance. The best part? My friends have all hopped on the bandwagon, and we can't get enough of this radiant, complexion-enhancing powder. If you want to experience a truly transformative makeup product, look no further than Hourglass Ambient Lighting Powder. It's a must-try and a must-share with your beauty-savvy friends!

Glowy and dewy from within

Wow. I was so excited to finally purchase this product, as Hourglass is a pricey brand. I did only manage to purchase the mini size, however I would recommend doing this with more expensive brands, to test the product before committing to the full size. I purchased the shade Dim Light. This works well when I have fake tan on, however it's too dark and warm toned for when I'm not tan. The range only has a couple of other shades, which is not a large selection.

Other than that this product is amazing. All it takes is a light dusting to provide your skin with a luminous glow. Although this skin provides a glowing and dewy finish, it does not emphasise pores or texture. If anything it minimises pores. It makes your skin look healthy, which pairs great with a foundation that may have mattified your skin and made it look too flat and one dimensional.

Good for dry skin

Love this for setting my makeup. I have dry / combo skin and this gives my makeup such a natural radiant finish without looking cakey or oily.

Tips: I dont use it to set under the eyes, but it is beautiful around the perimeters of the face.

One of the best powders to exist??

I love setting powder so much, it blurs yours pores evens out. I got the travel size of this not so long ago and I have just recently bought my second one of these. This has to be one of my favourite powders and I do recommend this as it is my fav makeup piece in my makeup routine!!

Pretty

its gives your skin a beautiful glow from within look and does not cling to any dry patches, I would probably not purchase again as the price seems too high in my opinion for something that does not really show up well but i will continue to use it.

Tips: buy the mini version it is much more worth it.

Beautiful effect on skin!

I had a wee splurge and purchased some hourglass products that I have been wanting to try for years because they are huge favorites of many people on social media you tube however because of the price of these stunning products I held off purchasing but I'm so excited to have them in my collection now! Hourglass products are very much a luxurious brand and cost a pretty penny. The packaging of these powders are amazing very sturdy and look stunning. I have the shades Dim Light (Neutral Beige) and Soft Light (Pale Peach) both look stunning on I wish they had a tad more pigmentation for a bit more coverage but they are finishing powders so not made for alot of coverage, this would be my only reason for not repurchasing once I have finished them just because I do like a wee bit of coverage with my powders and like them to set my cream products, finishing powders don't set cream products the best but again they are not really intended for that purpose they are just to diffuse the skin for a beautiful light finish, none the less these are still stunning. These powders have a really interesting formula they feel very light and airy and glide over the skin. I would only recommend these powders if you use finishing powders alot in your routine and have the cash to splash.

Tips: These powders are perfect for using when you have used a very pigmented blush and want to buff it out to to diffuse the blush, also great for blending eye shadows with to get that seemless blend below your brow.

I've tried two shades...

I got these in shades Dim Light and Diffused light. Dim Light left a stunning smooth finish to the skin however on me the colour would show up. I am quite pale (Mac NC15, Sheer glow Gobi, Revlon colourstay Buff, Estee Lauder double wear in bone.) so could use this as a subtle bronzer/contour powder but not all over. Diffused Light, was more up my alley as a finishing powder and it does really do a great job at diffusing fines lines and making them less noticeable, it has a slight sparkle in the pan that doesn't not visibly transfer to the skin but just helps to reflect the light a little.

Tips: Love it but not a must have

Review

This powder was light on the skin and didn't make my face feel heavy even when atop a cream/liquid base. It also adds the most amazing shine - although for a good glow, quite a bit of product needs to be applied as the pigmentation is the best.

Looked dusty on my skintone

I have a warm based, medium skin tone and whenever I use this product, it instantly turns my cheeks ashy and have to restart my makeup. The finish is really lovely and I really would love to buy this in another colour

Tips: Strongly suggest trying it in store before purchasing to make sure it suits your colouring
