#Ambient light palette review skin

I think this palette is the first with the marbleized look. The front of the palette has the Hourglass logo in silver. The back of the Hourglass Ambient Lighting Edit – Surreal Light Palette has an schematic overview with all the shades. It has some weight but still is compact and feels sturdy enough to travel. The size of the palette of similar to an A6 paper, which is fits four times in a regular A4 paper. The palette has a matte marble look and is made of durable, high quality plastic. I love the simplicity and it already looks luxurious. All Hourglass products that I own so far came in the same type of packaging. The Hourglass Ambient Lighting Edit – Surreal Light Palette comes in a simple, champagne gold packaging that has information regarding the content. I’m going to review this palette and show you before and after pictures in this post. Hourglass, one of my favorite brands has released the Limited Edition Ambient Lighting Edit – Surreal Light Palette for the holidays, which includes never-before-released shades of powder, bronzer, blushes, and highlighter. However, if you’re an Hourglass lover and already have lots of their blushes and powders then you’ll find that this could be a repetitive purchase for you, and might not be worth the $80 investment.The holiday season is the perfect season for make-up, because there are many brands who release palettes and sets with a variety of their products with a great value.

It’s essentially a travel friendly taste testing palette. If you’re an Hourglass newbie or desire to try out their different powders, blushes, etc, then I do suggest purchasing the Hourglass Ambient Lighting Edit palette because you’ll be able to try out lots of different products.

I have the Radiant Bronze Light bronzer, which is for medium to darker skin tones, so I was glad to see that both shades add warmth and radiance. The Luminous Bronze Light bronzer, which is supposed to be for light to medium skin tones, also shows up on my skin, which I was happily surprised about. Hourglass Ambient Lighting Edit palette comparisonīefore I tried any Hourglass products I was wary about whether or not they would show up on my nc40 skin tone, but I’m happy to say that they do. The powders themselves are of the same quality, which is nice because sometimes brands release limited edition collections or products that are of sub par quality, but these uphold that Hourglass quality you expect.

$80, which isn’t exactly budget friendlyĪ lot of people have been complaining about the size of the products themselves because they’re so tiny, and I have to admit that when I first received it I was a bit bummed because I was expecting each product to be the size of the powders that are in the Ambient Lighting Palette.

Variety of products you receive– 3 highlighters/powders, 2 blushes, 1 bronzer.

Allows you to achieve a “lit from within” look.

You get to try out lots of different permanent products from their line.

So, overall I thought the $80 price tag would be a good investment. Plus, it contains Diffused Light, which is one of their permanent powders I’ve wanted for a while now, but never purchased. Personally, I was super bummed that I missed out on the limited edition blush palette they released last year (I thought it was permanent like the Ambient Lighting Palette, but it wasn’t *insert tears*) so I knew I had to have this palette because FOMO is a real thing when you’re a makeup junkie.
