Oh stop, you’re making me blush…
But really, thank you for all the tweets and comments that you’ve all been leaving me regarding my recent nail polish posts. I originally started pandamoniumpink.com (about) three years ago to share my love of nail polish with the online beauty community, so it makes me happy when I go back to my blog’s “roots” and receive positive feedback on my nail polish content.
As I mentioned in my NARS Narcissist Eyeshadow Palette post, I’ve been keeping an eye on all of the Spring 2014 makeup releases and I’m going to be updating the blog as regularly as possible with the products that I’m most excited about. After the success of the Ambient Lighting Powder Palette back in the Fall, I had a suspicion that Hourglass would be following up with more Ambient Lighting products (specifically blushes since it’s a relative of the highlighter and pressed powder family) and hey, I was right! Hourglass says that these blushes have Photoluminescent Technology to exhibit depth and dimension, which to me means that they will each have their own unique glow and will create different lighting effects, similar to the Hourglass Ambient Lighting powders.
There will be 6 Ambient Lighting blushes added to the Hourglass permanent collection and they will each retail for $36, which is definitely on the pricy side, BUT they will all be free of parabens, talc, fragrance, nano particles, and gluten. Hourglass claims that these blushes will feel airy and lightweight on the skin, have build-able color, and will be balanced so that there’s the perfect combination of powder and pigment. According to Hourglass, these blushes will reinvent the way we wear blush.
Here’s a description of each of the blushes that was released by Hourglass:
Dim Infusion: A subdued coral blush fused with Dim Light to add warmth
Diffused Heat: A vibrant poppy blush combined with Diffused Light for a subtle halo effect
Luminous Flush: A champagne rose blush fused with Luminous Light to evoke a candlelit glimmer
Radiant Magenta: A golden fuchsia blush combined with Radiant Light for a summer glow
Mood Exposure: A soft plum blush fused with Mood Light to brighten the complexion
Ethereal Glow: A cool pink blush fused with Ethereal Light for a moonlit luminosity
These blushes are currently for sale at hourglass.com and they will be available at Sephora on February 2.
I’m excited about this blush line, especially the peachy- pink one, because Hourglass products always deliver what they promise, they are packaged beautifully, and they feel luxurious on the skin; however, because of the price, I’m definitely going to put a lot of thought into which blush I’ll be investing in because there’s no way I can justify buying two or three blushes at once!
Will you be buying the Hourglass Ambient Lighting blushes despite the high price? Do you think they’ll be as popular as the Hourglass Ambient Lighting face powders? Let me know in the comments below or tweet me @pandamoniumpink!
Cheers,
Kels
