The hype around these powders when they were released was ridiculous, especially on blogs + YouTube. I have never been much of a setting powder girl, having dry skin, and favoring dewy foundation finishes. I have tried a few setting powders over the years, but I just found they would ruin the glow my foundation gave and leave me looking dull. So naturally these powders really really excited me. Hourglass claims 'Each powder captures, diffuses and softens surrounding light'. And if that means add a gorgeous glow and soft focus finish then right they are. I got my hands on the shade 'Diffused Light' back in November last year, and what can I say? Its the best setting powder ever. The powder itself is slightly yellow toned and fairly translucent, so I think it could be suitable for most skin tones. It just leaves your skin with the most beautiful glow, keeps your make up on all day (although I can't vouch for oily skins) and helps cancel out redness, without a hint of a powdery finish. I'm in love. Hourglass have just released a collection of 'Ambient Lighting Blushes' to accompany the powders, and I couldn't be more excited to get my hands on them. Go buy go buy go buy!
