Hourglass Ambient Lighting Powder

I’m all about Hourglass Cosmetics these days. What I like about it is that they take out a lot of the ingredients that bother me sometime in cosmetics, such as: oil, parabens, petroleum lanolin, etc. They are innovative and of course fashion forward. Here’s their latest: the Hourglass Ambient Lighting Powder.

Hourglass Ambient Lighting Powder

Ambient Lighting Powder, a groundbreaking collection of finishing powders that emulate different lighting effects, from ethereal moonlight to luminous candlelight. This is not your mother’s finishing powder. Unlike traditional powders that merely sit on the skin, Ambient uses “photoluminescent technology” that refracts light, creates transparent coverage and renders the skin gorgeously radiant. There are six universal powders available and each has a corresponding lighting effect. Choose one or more and then step into the light. It’s the equivalent of having a personal lighting technician at your disposal. Paraben, talc, fragrance, nano-particles and gluten free.
