Hourglass Ambient Blush SWATCHES and REVIEW!

It's no secret I'm a bit obsessed with the Hourglass Ambient Lighting Powders... When I heard they were releasing 6 shades of Ambient Blush- an entirely new product that mixes beautiful and bright shades of blush with a swirl of the Ambient Lighting Powders- I got super excited, as you can probably imagine.
*To see swatches and my thoughts on the regular Ambient Lighting Powders, check out the posts here and here.


Now that they are readily available and have released fully at Sephora.com, I wanted to share these new pretties with you all!  They apply so smoothly and really do create sort of a soft focus, 3D effect on the skin, rather than a flat finish.  I could go on and on, but I'll let the photos speak for themselves!

Here's what the packaging looks like. They're about half the size of the Ambient Lighting Powders.



Each shade has a unique "swirl".   No two are alike...



Ambient Lighting Blush, $35 each (.15 oz)
available now at sephora.com


Diffused Heat
"Vibrant poppy blush combined with Diffused Light for a subtle halo effect"


Dim Infusion
"Subdued coral blush fused with Dim Light to add warmth"


Ethereal Glow
"Cool pink blush fused with Ethereal Light for a moonlit luminosity"


Luminous Flush
"Champagne rose blush fused with Luminous Light to evoke a candlelit glimmer"


Mood Exposure
"Soft plum blush fused with Mood Light to brighten the complexion"


Radiant Magenta
"Golden fuchsia blush combined with Radiant Light for a summer glow"



swatched, left to right: Diffused Heat, Dim Infusion, Ethereal Glow, Luminous Flush, Mood Exposure, Radiant Magenta

So what do you guys think of these? Will you be picking them up? What shade stands out most to you??

  7. They are all so lovely! I think I like the radiant flush based on the swatch. Thanks for the video and review!

    Am wondering, if you could only choose one setting powder, to build a beginning makeup collection, would you get a Mac Mineralize Skinfinish Natural, a Nars setting powder, or one of the Hourglass Ambient powders? Loaded question I think but I've seen you use all of them and simply can't decide which one to get! Thanks for any advice you may have!

  13. Dim infusion looks amazing on you! It's also the one I have my eye on with summer coming up (well, I'm deluding myself some, but I want summer. Lol)

  14. diffused heat and radiant magenta look great! I had no clue that they were infused with the ambient lighting powders, but the names make a lot of sense now that I know!

  19. Love the bag. I am a purse freak myself. My collection is an embarassment! No judgement here. :) I got a new CC for spring. So, I would love to see a video of your latest wonderful addition. I just picked up two of the blushes too. Awaiting their arrival. You did a great job describing them. Best...

  20. These blushes look really nice and I would want to get one if the weren't so darn expensive. Are they really worth the huge price tag?
