So here's a little story for you pretty people out there, this summer my family went to Europe for a vacation.. so what does this girl do? Of course she overpacks and brings ALL her FAVORITE makeup with her because who doesn't want to look their best when in Europe right?! So on our flight to Abu Dhabi for our layover.. I LEFT MY MAKEUP BAG IN THE PLANE hahaha i had no idea that that could possibly happen but it did so long story short i lost most of my makeup (let's say around 90%; I'm still not over it)
So here's the silver lining, I had a reason for a crazy makeup shopping session and my first stop was of course Sephora! So one thing's for sure, you guys have a lot of makeup reviews coming your way (and this girl won't leave anything on the plane next time.)
HOURGLASS AMBIENT LIGHTING POWDER REVIEW IN RADIANT MAGENTA
This was actually gifted to me by my boyfriend! I've been looking for a blush that's cool toned with a little hint of warm-ness in it to suit my pale-neutral complexion. My favorite blush would be Lancome's Blush Subtil in Aplum but I hit pan on it already so I was in search for a similar shade I could use for daytime so I could save the Lancome one for night time.. and here comes Hourglass!

Its a bright cool toned magenta baked with a warm toned beige-y peach with it which makes it a good balance of warm and cool tones. If you're familiar with the Ambient lighting powders, the beige-y color is actually Radiant light (guys its not a sprayover! yay!)
The color is perfect for daytime because it just brightens up the face and gives you that "lit from within" glow. The pigmentation is great but be a little gently when you dip your brush into it because it is a soft powder! Over all, I think this blush is totally worth its buck.
Til next time,
A
