Today I want to show you two new products that I had recently added to my everyday makeup routine: Hourglass Veil Translucent Setting Powder and Hourglass Ambient Lighting Bronzer. Let me start from the setting powder.
Hourglass Veil Translucent Setting Powder
This Hourglass translucent setting powder is an ultra-refined powder formulated with light-reflecting particles to blur imperfections. As the brand describes, Hourglass Veil Translucent Setting powder blurs the appearance of pores, fine lines, and wrinkles for an airbrushed finish.

It features an innovative gold sifter and custom cap which allow for the perfect amount of product to be dispensed. I've never had any issue with it so far.

You will appreciate the fact that this translucent setting powder doesn't contain talk, so because of that , it leaves an absolutely invisible finish , making it perfect for all skin tones. This powder is also formulated without Parabens.
It's very finely milled so it doesn't leave powdery look on my dry skin. I apply this Hourglass Veil Translucent Setting Powder after my La Mer liquid foundation and it creates an amazing natural finish.
No let's move on to another product from Hourglass: Ambient Lighting Bronzer that I bought in travel size and I'm glad I did, because this bronzer will probably last me forever.
Hourglass Ambient Lighting Bronzer
This Hourglass Ambient Lighting Bronzer fuses the illuminating effects of Ambient Lighting Powder with bronze pigments to add depth and dimension for a sun-kissed glow.

| Hourglass Ambient Lighting Bronzer |
The hand-made powders are formulated using an advanced miscelare technique to create the perfect balance of pigment and powder, and no two look alike. This bronzer can be worn alone for subtle warmth and contouring or paired with a setting powder.
I use the darker part of this bronzer as a bronzer, but the lighter part for highlighting, but you can simply use it as a bronzer.
I like the fact that it's not too shimmery, even though it has some simmer to it, and just like Hourglass setting powder that I was talking about in this post, this bronzer is also free from Parabens.
These were definitely great addition to my makeup collection but will I repurchase them? __ probably not, because even though I really like both products, I also like to give a try to other products.
Thanks for reading!

I've always been Sephora gal from being Beauty Insider to VIB ROUGE over the years but I recently ended up shopping at Ulta store for the first time, for a particular sunscreen.
Even though I couldn't find that exact product, I purchased this UltaBeauty Mineral Matte Tinted Face Lotion SPF30, and signed up for Ulta Reward Program which is free.
As a welcome gift, I received this cute pink makeup bag, also, BareMinerals Prime Time Original foundation primer, Kate Somerville ExfoliKate Intensive Exfoliating Treatment, Philosophy Renewed Hope in a Jar Peeling mousse (which I yet to use) and these cute Invisi Bobble traceless hair rings.
I am going to do a quick review of this UltaBeauty Mineral Matte Tinted Face Lotion on Wednesday, so far it seems like a good sunscreen option for my skin. Have you used any of these products? Let me know in the commnets below.
Wish you all a wonderful first week of March.

There are beauty products that are must-haves for most of the people and a good, trusted concealer is one of them, especially if you've got dark circles under your eyes. Today I want to show you some of my favorite concealers I've used for years.
YSL All Hours Concealer:
This is a full coverage concealer that can instantly blur and erase imperfections and discoloration on face. As for formula, this is more liquid side then other concealers I'm talking about today, and it also feels more moisturizing then other ones.
 |
| YSL All Hours Concealer |
Make sure you apply your setting / finishing powder after this concealer so that it will not crease or fade throughout the day.
This YSL ultra-smooth, matt finish concealer comes in 16 different shades so you will definitely be able to find perfect match for your skin tone.
ALL Hours concealer is free from Parabens, Sulfates, and Phthalates.
Guerlain Multi-Perfecting concealer:
With this Guerlain Multi-Perfecting hydrating concealer you can hide dark circles and imperfections and create a natural-looking finish. It's a creamy concealer that comes in a little tube with a fine tip so you have great control over how much you squeeze out, that way, you don't waste too much product and also, it's hygienic.
 |
| Guerlain Multi-Perfecting concealer |
This creamy concealer comes in 6 shades from Light Warm to Very Deep Cool. Among the three concealers I'm talking about today, this has the most coverage and it's the best to cover any imperfections on face, but keep in mind that you will still need to apply a color corrector under your eyes prior to tis concealer, if you've got very dark circles.
 |
| Guerlain Multi-Perfecting concealer |
Guerlain Multi-Perfecting concealer has delicate floral scent of rose, raspberry, jasmine and white musk but as I said, it's very delicate scent , nothing annoying, and even though it's scented, it doesn't irritate my skin or eyes.
Guerlain Multi-Perfecting concealer is free from Parabens, Sulfates, and Phthalates.
This creamy, liquid concealer minimizes the look of flaws, blemishes and dark circles wtih full, natural looking coverage. As Lancome describes, this concealer is enriched with light-diverting agents and a hydrating botanical complex that supports antioxidant protection. It minimizes the appearance of under-eye circles while reducing environmental damage off your look with natural-looking coverage.
Even though Maquicomplet concealer is creamy and lightweight, it gives me full coverage and it never settles into fine lines. This concealer comes in 14 different shade so you can find the one that perfectly matches your skin tone.
Have you used any of these concealers yet? How you liked it? Let me know in the comments below.

Givenchy Poudre Premiere Mat & Translucent-finish loose powder and Givenchy Prisme Visage Perfecting Face Powder are my favorite makeup products from this brand. I'm not a person who loves loose powders because of their messiness and I was not sure it was a good decision to buy this Givenchy Poudre Premiere Mat & Translucent-finish loose powder but I'm so glad I did.

What is Givenchy Poudre Premiere Mat & Translucent-finish
loose powder and what it does:
This is a universal, transparent loose finishing powder for the face that imparts radiant complexion throughout the day.
This transparent, featherlike, superfine loose finishing powder applies completely sheer, and gives skin an even, matte, and naturally radiant complexion. It feels absolutely luxurious from the moment you open its gorgeous black enamel case to the minutes you apply it with its microfiber powder puff on your skin.

Givenchy Poudre Premiere Mat & Translucent-finish loose powder is really superfine that has a very pleasant smell. I usually apply it over my liquid foundation and it gives my skin natural, airbrushed finish. The only downside is that it's not the best option for traveling.
This takes me to my another favorite Givenchy powder that is great for travelling since it's a pressed powder and as a bonus, you can also color correct and highlight your skin.
This is a mattifying, ultra-fine, and smooth pressed powder that's formulated with silk proteins in a harmony of four complimentary shades to perfect the complexion.
Givenchy Prisme Visage Perfecting Face Powder comes in different shades for different skin tones that is great. Its pigments are blended with mica powder for added luminosity, and a blurring ingredient smooths the skin and reduces the look of blemishes. It also includes a beleved brush for a flawless application. I'm personally not a big fan of this brush, but the powder itself is great.
I bought it shade Satin Ivoire which suppose to create a luminous effect on light skin tones but you can get in a few shades, including Mousseline Pastel for color correction. You can use each shade of four-shade pressed powder separately or together.
