Hourglass - Mini Ambient Strobe Lighting Powder - Brilliant Strobe Light - 1.3g

This is the Hourglass euphoric strobe light ambient strobe lighting powder and it retails for roughly $40.00. This is definitely a low key highlighter that looks beautiful on mature skin. Doesn’t show texture or pores. The color is a peach with warm, yellow undertones and a luminous finish. Very finely milled, semi sheer - buildable to about a medium amount of coverage. Not intense at all. This lasts roughly 8 hours on me before it noticeably fades

I realized the beauty of an hourglass only when I applied one of the products to my face. Is it generally legal to do SO beautiful? I don’t get hung up on the cost and segments of cosmetics, but this is the case when you are painting and feel that it is expensive. Shining powder (aka highlighter) ambient lighting strobe in the shade of Incandescent Strobe Light is ideal for fair-skinned girls. I recommend that the rest not be upset and pay attention to other shades, which are still in the line 3. But I have not seen them in miniatures, so I have to fork out😅 I won’t write about packaging, everything is clear: expensive and stylish and high-quality. Only now it gets dirty constantly🙄 But this is all the little things compared to what kind of product in action!

But I have not seen them in miniatures, so I have to fork out😅 I won’t write about packaging, everything is clear: expensive and stylish and high-quality. Only now it gets dirty constantly🙄 But this is all the little things compared to what kind of product in action! This is Photoshop in life, not otherwise. I thought that I would see the sparkles on the face that clearly stand out in the package, but they disappear somewhere on the face and get a beautiful NATURAL radiance. The thing is that Ambient Strobe highlighters have a flickering base with a high concentration of pearl microparticles of different sizes, which refract light in different ways and make the skin so beautiful. I caught myself thinking that I don’t even see its texture, as is often the case with other products. Accordingly, the relief is not emphasized, so the skin looks sleek. This is not the case when the highlighter shines for a kilometer, there is a more delicate effect, but if desired, the powder can be layered or applied in a wet way and you will have sparkling happiness. Honestly, I don’t even know what to add. I fell in love and for the first time in a long time VERY surprised by the quality of cosmetics. Now I want to take the powder even more and start looking towards the palettes👀 The cost of the Ambient Strobe miniature is about two thousand rubles. Full size will cost you a little less than four. But this is the case when a product is worth every ruble. You can buy at beautylish, Sephora, cultbeauty. I’m waiting for someone else to write me what cool face pallets and I’ll fall on her😂 #hourglass #highlighter #sephora #cultbeauty Check my Instagram @pavyuli for more ♥️

First off it would be nice if the shade tones/undertones were described, relying on just photos and having to cross reference google images and reviews is a pain. I’m still not sure I got the best shade for my skin tone. Very fair, cool toned, I bought incandescent which looks light champagne yellow in the pan, I would’ve preferred something maybe lilac or leaning a little more cool anyways. As for the product itself, this is… subtle. I don’t want to look like a disco ball or have texture emphasized from 6 feet away, but for $58 I don’t want to have to use 3x the product just to receive a subtle look. I don’t have a highlighter right now and I got this in the Sephora sale, so for 20% off, I will probably keep it but it won’t be a repurchase. This is pretty, it’s ... MoreFirst off it would be nice if the shade tones/undertones were described, relying on just photos and having to cross reference google images and reviews is a pain.

This is pretty, it’s just very subtle, very low pigment pay off and the shades are a guess at best.

Angelic!!

Don’t buy this expecting a blinding wet-look highlighter because you’ll be disappointed - it gives much more of a soft “inner-glow”. It’s kind of powdery but in a way that looks blurring rather than cakey on me. Extremely beautiful and I imagine this would be so nice for bridal makeup as it looks angelic in photos. Whether it’s worth the excessive price is up to you but I have to say it’s unlike any other highlighter I’ve tried and believe me, I’ve tried a lot! I bought the shade incandescent

Euphoric Light - so pretty!

Hourglass powders are in a class of their own, and the Strobe Lighting Powders are no exception. I've just bought one in the shade Euphoric Light, which is described as a "pearlescent beige powder for a natural highlight". I'd describe it more as a peachy beige; the illustration here at SpaceNK is a pretty good representation. It's a lovely, flattering colour which suits my fair complexion.

Golden Fairy Dust, so pretty

I’ve bought this in the soft gold “brilliant” hue, and wow, it just gives you that special soft focus radiance- that haze of glamour without being too shimmery. I have found it finishes and highlights the face so well, I forget to bother with blush or bronzer. Lovely product and has that quality of making you feel pretty when you use it. Great for those days where your beauty regime needs a little fairy dust - because that’s what this is, it really is like golden fairy dust for your complexion.

I don't know what I did before these!

I have absolutely fallen in love with Hourglass products, and the strobes are no exception. Whilst at first I used these in place of highlighters for a very subtle effect, I've now totally changed my routine! After using the incredible Infinity Powder all over, I apply one of the Strobes (Incandescent and Iridescent remain my favourites) down the centre of my nose up to and along the top of my brow bone, the middle of my upper lip, and my chin. Then I apply blush/bronzer/highlighter as usual. This has made a MASSIVE difference to my finished look, now I just can't imagine not adding this as one of the last steps! I am so very glad I discovered these and how to use them properly (for me personally), it's yet another reason that I've become totally devoted to ... MoreI have absolutely fallen in love with Hourglass products, and the strobes are no exception.

Will definitely be buying again in future!

Incandescent Light

I got this shade in the holiday Butterfly palette. It wasn't the main draw of the palette for me, but now having tried it I'm so glad it's available as a single, because I'm going to need a replacement when I finish the palette! Incandescent Light has an amazing finish-very shiny but the particles are so small it gives sort of a hypnotizing shimmering finish, not glittery like I was afraid of! It's buildable so can be more subtle or more of an intense wet finish.

Incandescent Strobe = Perfect Champagne Pink

I've been using this shade for 6 years, it's the best pink champagne out there. Using a light touch, you can really give yourself an excellent glow on the cheekbones, browbone, and it's also perfect for the inner corner. It looks really natural and refined, no big chunks of glitter. This is an excellent, silvery-pink shimmer. I really love the formula, I just wish hourglass had more cool tones available in all their products.For fair skinned people, pink-leaning highlighters (like this one) look so much better than all the yellow-y champagne ones that everyone seems to use. For some reason, all the hourglass palettes use the same yellow-y highlighter. Can we get away from warm highlighters and try something different? What happened to more silver highlighters, or ... MoreI've been using this shade for 6 years, it's the best pink champagne out there.

What happened to more silver highlighters, or even a subtle lavender shade? The Ghost palette tried, but the highlighter they included was more like a finishing powder with some tiny flecks of glitter--they really should've popped Incandescent Strobe in there, and it would've been an absolute hit.

The one and only

I bought this highlighter a year ago and never looked back. It is a beautiful and bright highlighter without having just a cheek full of glitter, which keeps it natural looking. It is now my only highlighter in my collection and I have just about cleared the entire pan. I’ve just bought a new one so I won’t have to go without! Will repurchase forever until it is discontinued.
