![]() ![]() I have been using this powder everyday, and it’s a great work-friendly palette since all of the shades are natural looking and they enhance your beauty. I use Diffused Light to set my dark circles, but it does tend to accentuate the dryness if you overdo it (for concealer, I use Tarte Shape Tape, which already super matte). I especially love the blush, Surreal Halo and the highlighter, Dim Light. I guess I am too used to the “in-your-face” pigmented blushes and highlighters from BECCA or NARS, which can also be really hard to blend if you accidentally put too much. The blushes are also buildable, which is great because you can choose how much (or little) amount of pigmentation you want. This bronzer is not used for a sharp, Kim K-contoured look. The bronzer, Luminous Bronze Light, is slightly light for my skin tone but buildable and gives me a warm natural glow. I read the reviews and saw that this palette is much more friendly for tan skin, compared to the Ambient Lighting Edit Palettes vol. I was drawn to this palette because on the screen, Surreal Halo and Pure Effect appeared darker. Pure Effect (new): medium warm pink blush.Īt first, I was slightly disappointed with how the colors were so much different in person than online. Surreal Halo (new): medium berry blush infused with champgne. Luminous Bronze Light (existing): medium bronze infused with one of their lighting powders (Luminous Light). I set my foundation with this with a big, fluffy powder brush. It reminds me of BECCA’s Opal.ĭim Light (existing): peach beige finishing powder. Hypnotic Strobe Light (new): warm, pale pearl highlighter with finely milled shimmer. I set my concealer on my dark circles with this. It consists of six shades, three of which are already existing and three which are new:ĭiffused Light (existing): soft, warm, ivory finishing powder. The Ambient Lighting Edit Volume 3 palette is encased in a rose gold, mirror-esque case, which is sleek and stunning but it also leaves smudges. It may seem steep spending $80, until you see how each Ambient Lighting powder/blush/bronzer runs in between $22–$50, so you’re getting a great deal getting multiple shades in this little palette. Luckily, my mom and stepdad gifted me with a $50 Sephora gift card for my birthday, and I waited until the VIB sale to take the plunge and purchase it, and I ended up spending only $19. It was on my radar for weeks, but I couldn’t justify spending $80 on a single palette. When I saw the Ambient Lighting Edit Volume 3 palette though…I needed to have it. ![]() My first and only Hourglass product is their Mineral Veil Primer which I absolutely adore because even though it’s mattifying (and I have dry skin), it gives me a soft glow. ![]() I’ve always loved Hourglass’ palettes and blushes, and I’ve heard nothing but great reviews about them. ![]()
