| Houglass Ambient Lighting Powder in 'Luminous Light' |
Last Christmas I sold my soul
life savings away for this gorgeous looking face powder. When I walked out of
Mecca Maxima with this in hand and a gaping hole in my wallet I had a little
internal meltdown. What have I done? Who
spends $60 on a shimmery face powder? Well, I did, and so do a lot of other
people, but for me it’s a rare occurrence. But as soon as I got home and
unwrapped it all my regrets flew out the window.
I had been craving an Hourglass
product for a while now. I love the look of their products, and this powder is
no exception. The packaging is divine. The powder looks as soft as a pillow in
its casing, and the product itself is quite smooth and picks up easily. The
shimmer is very fine and, as the beautician at Mecca Maxima mentioned to me, it
can be used all over the face for a natural glow. I've been treating this like
a highlighter, so I've been concentrating this product over my cheekbones and
t-zone, and I think it gives a really nice glow on top of my regular foundation.
Have you tried any hourglass products before? Have any on your wishlist?
Ahhh I wish I could spend my life savings on all these beautiful high-end products!! Been eyeing this up too, you can't ignore the hype. I usually treat myself on my birthday each year to 2-3 major products. I should really add this as a possibility.

I have a little high-end wishlist as well. It's definitely nice to treat yourself once in a while :)
DeleteIt looks sooo pretty!
ReplyDeleteI can understand your initial panic - it's hard to to not feel a little guilty about a high end treat, but well money is meant to be spent, right? Hehe, and it seems it was worth it - the powder sounds lovely!
Well, it's definitely been worth it for me. I've used this highlighter almost everyday since I bought it.
DeleteGosh, it is pretty. But the price isn't my cup of tea...no matter how much it's calling my name...I hope! x
