Hi makeup lovers! If you're looking to take your makeup game to the next level, then you're in for a treat. In this review, I'll be sharing my experience and swatches of the Hourglass Ambient Lighting Powders that have completely won me over.

Selecting the Perfect Finishing Powder

Choosing the right finishing powder is just as crucial as finding the perfect foundation. It sets the base for the rest of your makeup, ensuring a flawless and radiant finish. As someone with dry skin, I've always struggled to find a powder that doesn't accentuate my dry spots. But these Hourglass Ambient Lighting Powders have completely transformed my makeup routine.

The Magic of Hourglass Ambient Lighting Powders

These powders not only provide a luminous finish but also beautifully blur imperfections and give your skin a natural-looking glow. The Hourglass Ambient Lighting Powders come in a variety of shades, each designed to complement different skin tones and undertones.

The Palette: A Gateway to Radiant Skin

If you're new to the Hourglass range or unsure which powder to try first, the palette is an excellent starting point. It includes three shades: Dim Light, Incandescent Light, and Radiant Light. These versatile powders can be used as finishing powders, highlighters, or even bronzers, depending on your complexion and desired look.

Personally, as someone with a collection of highlighters, I found that the palette shade wasn't my go-to. So if you're like me, I'd suggest investing in the full-size powders to ensure you have the shade that suits you best. But for those new to highlighters or looking to experiment, the palette is a fantastic option.

Clearing Up a Common Misconception

Before we dive into the swatches and my favorite application technique, I want to clarify a misconception that I've noticed a lot lately. These powders are not just highlighters; they are true multitaskers. While they can certainly be used as highlighters, their main purpose is to be lightly dusted all over the face or specific areas after applying foundation. Some shades can even double as bronzers. The versatility of these powders is impressive, and it's all about finding what works best for your complexion and undertones.
