Being neither a blush nor Hourglass fan, I was surprised when the announcement of the Hourglass Ambient Lighting Blush’s release had me heart eye’d and drooling. It took me so long to decide on a shade, but last week I bit the bullet and ended up following my gut and going with Diffused Heat – my original choice – DOH.
The beautiful golden casing carries a swirl of blush and highlighting powder, giving a lit from within finish to the skin. The blush’s are far more pigmented than I imagined, so my shade in Diffused Heat (a strong peachy-pink/red colour with a luminous cool toned highlight), will be sticking with me for a while. I don’t think I’ve ever really felt the need to tap off some of the product on the back of my hand before! I’m currently applying it with a small brush I had lying around, but I have a feeling that a duo fibre brush would work amazingly with this shade as it’s so pigmented.
And now for the little details… You can order them online in the UK from Space NK (who might currently be doing free delivery?) for £28. Pricey, yes. But they will last. Do I want more shades? Naturally. Dim Infusion, I’m coming for you…
I got mine yesterday, and they are so beautiful! I have Dim Infusion and I posted about it, maybe you'd like to have a look 😉
Love, Marie

This looks so beautiful. The colours remind me of rhubarb & custard sweets; which is reason enough to buy it!
I don't think this colour would necessarily be for me, although maybe with a tan! But it looks so beautiful in the packaging!

To be perfectly honest, I'm not a big blush fan either but the more reviews I read (and swatches I see) of these the more I want one! Thanks for your review Suzie, the shade looks gorgeous on you.

Although I was swooning when these hit blogs, I was still unsure whether I wanted to pick one up. After seeing it on your cheeks, I'm drooling. I know where I'll be this weekend….

I have Luminous Flush and Mood Exposure. Luminous Flush is a gorgeous soft pink while Mood Exposure is more of a muted colour. If you want to check out the colour of these pans check out lovelanaxx.blogspot.com my little blog hun. I really like the colours I have been wearing both and think they are so pretty both in the pan and on.
