Today, we are covering what is probably my favorite makeup product of all time. As many in this community have probably heard, the Hourglass powders are incredible. With a formula so finely milled it is nearly impossible for these powders to come across as anything but natural.
It helps that I am a fan of blush in general, so applying these two facts, it is easy to understand why I love this product. The pigmentation is perfect, not too bright.
The color that I have is Luminous Flush, which may come across as extremely intimidating. It’s a bright pink, but with a soft, luminous, beige powder marbled into the pan. I believe that this marbling helps to tone down the brightness and is what causes this blush to look so natural.
My favorite way to apply this blush is on the apples of the cheeks and then sweep is back towards the temple. Then I also apply a bit over the top of my nose to give a “sun-kissed” look. Most will apply a bronzer for this technique but as someone with a ton of redness to their skin who burns easily under the sun, a blush gives me a more natural “sun-kissed” look.
