Hourglass Ambient Strobe Lighting Blush Palette
If there’s one brand that leaves broken hearts in the wake of sell-outs and limited-edition releases, it’s L.A.’s Hourglass. Every release seems to be accompanied by pandemonium and broken dreams for those who just can’t get their mitts on the latest and greatest. With a focus on high performance, the latest tech, and to-die-for packaging, it’s no surprise. The brand’s latest release? The one compact you need to replace all of blushes in your (always-growing) collection. It might be tough to imagine tossing everything you’ve worked so hard to collect, but with the Hourglass Ambient Strobe Lighting Blush Palette ($62), you’ll find that everything else is left in the dust.
“Blush is an important part of any makeup routine—it’s one of the easiest ways to instantly look more awake and refresh the complexion by adding depth and dimension,” says Carisa Janes, Hourglass founder. “Accentuating the cheekbones with Ambient Strobe Lighting Blush adds a glowing touch of color that looks lit from within.”
The three shades, Electra, Brilliant Nude, and Euphoric Fusion, are all you need for glowing, sculpted cheeks. Designed to work on just about every skin tone, this expertly curated set also features Hourglass’ Photoluminescent Technology — optically transparent ingredients that pump up shades so that they’re almost 3-D, offering a smooth, skinlike appearance that’s never cakey or heavy. Use the shades alone as a blush, bronzer, and highlight or blend them as you with for a real-life custom compact that’ll have you eschewing everything else. Plus, the formula isn’t matte and definitely not shimmery, it’s the perfect fit for any girl, any look, and any occasion. Run, don’t walk — this one won’t last.
