![]() It’s way too sparkly to be an all-over face powder. Incandescent Light is definitely a highlight shade. I wore all three in tandem here, and I’m not sure if I’m a fan of how they play together. Me, wearing Dim Light, Incandescent Light, and Radiant Light alone: It’s a product that’s easy to over-apply, in my opinion. A lot of people favor Dim Light, but I feel like it should be used sparingly for it to give you optimal results. It is quite satin-y and deposits just a bit of a sheen to your face that, when applied lightly, can make one look quite healthy. To reiterate, Dim Light is “a neutral peach beige powder that blurs imperfections and highlights the complexion.” I think that’s pretty accurate. ![]() I apply these with my new Hakuhodo powder brush, by just pressing it lightly on the powders then gently sweeping over my skin. In any case, I still like what’s on the inside, lol. This is brand new, okay? My 7-month old powders look much newer than this. Look at how scratched my new item came from Hourglass/Space.NK USA (which is where my brother bought this from). I made a remark about them being super lightweight (though they do actually look luxe) when I first got them, but wow. I’m guessing that’s why they threw in the Veil Mineral Primer, which is priced at about $8.32 for 0.16oz, compared to the cost of the full size at $52 for 1.0 fl oz. Someone did the math~ and found out that you actually pay more per g. The powders in this palette are way smaller than the original powders. L-R, swatched: Dim Light, Incandescent Light, Radiant Light Radiant Light - a sun-kissed golden beige powder that enhances the complexion with believable subtle warmth.Incandescent Light (Limited Edition) - an opalescent pearl powder that brightens the complexion with a celestial glow.Dim Light - a neutral peach beige powder that blurs imperfections and highlights the complexion.This is a holiday release by Hourglass, and has three shades and a travel-sized Veil Mineral Primer, which is my HG Primer and costs an arm and a leg, so YAY. ![]() I’m still a firm believer in these, though, if that’s any indication (to you) of how awesome these are. (Diffused Light, if you’re wondering.) If you are looking for an in-depth review of what exactly these powders are, I wrote one quite a while back, which you can read here. I am one of the crazy people that are absolutely in love with these, and I actually only have one other shade left to try, thanks to this palette. ![]() This is my brother’s Christmas and late birthday gift to me-the Hourglass Ambient Lighting Powder Palette. ![]()
