i didn't know about hourglass until recently. i read a lot of beauty blogs since i've given birth to my daughter, or a little bit before that since i have lots of time to kill, so.. many bloggers that i read mentioned hourglass. several of them. so i became curious.. especially about their ambient lighting powder. i believe the lighting powders are the breakthrough product that make hourglass famous. the founder claimed that the powder infused with active ingredients to create unbelievably surreal skin. while traditional powder mattifies skin and sometimes make you look dull, this lighting powder won't. it will catch lighting in wherever you are and somehow conceal the imperfection on your face and make you look radiant. sounds too good to be true, eh?
well.. many bloggers claim that the product works, that it will make your face not dull at all, glowing but not too shiny. right lighting in perfect place. like highlighter but a subtle one. not too shimmery, just like powder but more than usual powder. though it's supposed to work as powder, they have several variations in tones and highlighting effects. since they are so popular, they recently release a trio of highlighting powder for last year holiday season. which i hope i can get my hands on it, but i can't since it's too expensive.
their other products that i also interested in are their blushes. they look like usual compact powder blush, but with abstract picture on them. i don't know if the abstract pattern give color impact as blush. mostly i only saw hand or arm swatch, but i once saw what it will look like on face and it's pretty. very subtle in color and just look like the person is flushing.
recently they release bronzer to their collection. the pattern on the bronzer is same as the blush one. and they only have two types, one suitable for light skin, and the other one for darker skin. well, i only hope that someone will give me one of these as present or someday i'll be able to purchase it myself, before they're out of my reach.
