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.

Hourglass Veil Translucent Setting Powder |
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 |
Free, bold and connected young women were the ones that inspired creator of Twilly d'Hermes Eau de Parfum to create this fragrance, those "young women who turn expectation on its head, swim against the tide, impose their own rhythm, invert a brand new tempo."

Twilly d'Hermes Eau de Parfum |
I got this Twilly d'Hermes Eau de Parfum gift set as one of my birthday presents back in November and quite honestly, I was little disappointed with the strong old-fashion scent. Perhaps, I was expected something like my all-time paforite perfume _ Hermes Les Aux de Marveilles.

Twilly d'Hermes Eau de Parfum gift set |
Twilly d'Hermes is not a light, sophisticated everyday perfume you would wear in the office, it's a floral fragrance but it's also sweet and spicy with oriental notes. Speaking of notes, let's mention that main notes in this perfume are ginger, tuberose and sandalwood.
I, actually, like light floral scents but here _ floral tones are mixed with spiciness (ginger is one of the top notes in this fragrance, after all,) and sweetness that makes me feel like I can't tolerate this scent for too long.
Packaging is adorable, as you can see, the bowler hat lid with Hermes tiny scarf. As for staying power, it lasts almost all day.

2. YSL lipgloss (travel size)
3. Touch Eclat Blur Primer: _ I don't think I need to say anything about this primer other than almost everyone who has used it, loved it. I had this primer long time ago, but I was so busy using my other primers, particularly Guerlain D'Or primer that I never got to use it and after it expired, I ended up throwing away. This time, I'm going to use it.
Let's start from the fact that it doesn't have enough grain for my preference, I feel like it doesn't clean deeply. Even though it's not grain-y, it is harsher for my skin than my other exfoliators. Love the packaging and gentle scent of this exfoliator but I will probably return it or will give it to someone else who doesn't have dry sensitive skin.
