I love that you used the powders on your eyelids. You look stunning! When I saw the palette with the lotus design, I was immediately drawn to it! This is my first Hourglass palette, even though most of my makeup since 2016 has been from Hourglass Cosmetics-none of their previous palettes ever spoke to me until now. I signed up for early access, and when I received the sneak peek and saw Red 0 included, I was so excited. This year, I decided to change my lipstick shade, having always stuck to their "I'll Never Stop" (Beige Nude) Confession Ultra Slim High Intensity Lipstick. Feeling daring, I tried Red 0 in the Confession Ultra Slim High Intensity Lipstick and instantly fell in love with its stunning red shade. For reference, my foundation is Laura Mercier's Real Flawless Weightless Perfecting Foundation in 4N2 Tea (medium with neutral undertones). My perfect shades are the Ambient Lighting Bronzer in Nude Bronze Light, Ambient Lighting Blush in Mood Exposure (soft plum), and Ambient Strobe Lighting Powder in Euphoric. I justified purchasing the palette mainly for the Red 0 blush, knowing that even if the bronzer, finishing powder, and highlighters in the Lotus palette were too deep, they could still work as eyeshadows. When my first Hourglass palette arrived, it confirmed my suspicions: aside from the two blushes, and the bronzer (which I use as a contour powder) the other shades were indeed too deep for my complexion. However, they make amazing eyeshadows! I really hope Hourglass makes Red 0 a permanent shade in their range and starts offering more neutral shades. It would be even better if they introduced the option to customise the shades within their palettes.
Finally a review by someone with a skin tone close to mine 🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾. Thanks for Sharing. I customize this palette with the dragon design. Wasn’t a fan of this year’s designs to be honest. I’m about a shade darker than you so I’m definitely gonna do a video on this when I get it. Just so people have a bigger range of complexion to compare too. Love the softness of these looks. So beautiful
Great review of the Hourglass ambient lighting palette. It’s absolutely stunning I agreed with all that you stated and review. Great product great packaging too!
This palette was made for you omg! All of the shades work so well on your skin tone. I was a bit doubtful when you swatched the bronzer but 1 layer of it gives you the perfect sun-kissed soft glow.
So so sooo happy I have this palette. Everything just works 😍 I was too!!! 😂 so nervous but thankfully it applies beautifully and couldn’t agree more 1 layer gives just enough 💕 Thank you so much for watching 🩷 and your comment 🤗
I love the hourglass powders. When I saw this I knew I’d love it. Tried doing a same day delivery and it was not available. Went in store and when I saw it I had a little tear. It’s sooooo pretty in person. Gorgeous!!
I’ve been waiting on your review Mo. Thank you! As usual very informative and very sophisticated beautiful looks. 🌹❤️I plan to pick this one up. I have two previous ones (Tiger and Snake) but this one looks even better. I’ve seen two other reviews with much deeper complexions and the bronzer worked. So yes HG improving but could go a bit deeper so that EVERYONE can enjoy these wonderful products. Xx❤️🥰
I was so excited to see you apply the hourglass pallets. I’m most definitely heading to purchase this pallet and possibly the evil eye as well. The lotus pallet is just beautiful on your skin tone and I just loved how everything just meld into your skin so beautifully, this will be my first so I’m excited.
Absolutely gorgeous! I love. This palette so much but was undeside because I have one that I love and the colors look good on me but beautiful Mo the packaging and shades are a go for me 😂 Thank you for always share the best with us. I also didn’t know it wasn’t safe to use this palette on the eyes 😅😊
💕 Y E S ! I think of all I’ve tried over the years this is by far the best ONE! Every single shade and so everyday easy! Best value for the money indeed!! The color selection and arrangement is just chefs kiss 🙌🏽
The only review I was waiting for. Thank you Mo! Very excited to see how this looks on you. Edit: I really love both blushes on you and they are quite flattering. This might be the year I pick up an Hourglass palette thanks to your review!
Wouldn’t recommend using it to set or go too much on the under eye. But using it to finish everything is okay. Fluffy not to dense brush absolute perfection 🩷✨
For the price I would want a better bronzer shade than what's provided. I could use all of the colors but I also tan very easily come summer and I don't even think the darkest bronzer would work well when I tan. You can always use less of a bronzer that's deeper to sheer it down so it isn't too much but you cant do anything to make a bronzer deeper. Anyone darker would be wasting money buying this.
I love that you used the powders on your eyelids. You look stunning!

Hi Mo
My skin tone is very similar to your’s. Isn’t eternal light too dark for under eyes?
Wouldn’t recommend using it to set or go too much on the under eye. But using it to finish everything is okay. Fluffy not to dense brush absolute perfection 🩷✨
@@MoMakeupMoBeauty awesome 🤩
