They seem to keep limited stock on hand. I know that mine has sold out of Dim twice and Diffused once, but it usually reappears pretty quickly... I'm guessing an order must be coming in soon, since the Sephora web site is sold out of almost all the colours.
When I bought my first ambient powder, I wanted two of them (Luminous and Dim) but they were sold out of one, so I ordered it online. Waited until the 15% off to order my third one (Diffused) which btw I am in love with. It's my new favorite powder for all-over my face
If you want a straightforward highlighter, ethereal. If you want something for a healthy glow that's a bit short of a bronzer, Mood or Dim. Dim is a little more golden-toned, while Mood is neutral pink toned. Mood is a bit similar to Chanel's Joues Contraste in Rose Ecrin, and could probably function as a very light-natural blush. Dim doesn't look like a bronzer on me, but it definitely has some warmth to it. It's ideal for someone who has a more delicate skin tone and who can look muddied by bronzers.
Thanks! You make them all sound good and I still can't chose
Have you come across this video? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jtsfnGUGba4Thanks! You make them all sound good and I still can't choseI was thinking Mood could be a blush, Ethereal a highlight and Dim more of an allover powder, but I just don't know with which function the effect of these would be complimented the best.
Hi Pinkdollface,
This is perfect! Thanks so so much! Porcelain is definitely too yellow. It seems like Pearl is a touch darker than MUFE 20, but I'm going for it. If it doesn't work I think I can get Vanilla and mix the two to get a perfect shade, because Vanilla is a hint lighter, but too pink on its own.Hi Pinkdollface,
I have the swatches for you!
Please excuse my scribble! If you look at the photographs with the writing facing the proper way, the upper left is Make Up For Ever Matte Velvet+ in #20. The upper right is Hourglass in Pearl. The lower left is Porcelain. The lower right is Vanilla.
IMHO, I think Pearl would be the best match. Porcelain is too yellow & Vanilla has too much pink.
I hope that helps!
Yep, that should work out fine!Yes thanks I saw it and of course it also enabled me to get moreI'm trying to to get 3 the first time, because I haven't seen them in real life and if they dissapoint (which I don't expect but you never know) than I don't want to feel like I waisted money on 3. Maybe I can get 2 the first time Dim and Mood?

Not to make things worse, but with your complexion, you should also consider Diffused Light. It really does look like your face is bathed in morning rays of sun and it's probably my very favourite. It's bright enough to be a highlighter, but it's got just a little yellow to it. As contradictory as it seems, I'd call it a very light cool yellow.Thanks!

Ow wait I think I confused Ethereal Light and Diffused Light. I understood that one has a bit of yellow and the other is whiter. I was interested in the yellowtoned one, so I guess Diffused Light. Should I get Diffused Light the first time or Dim Light? I'm quite sure I'll go for Mood Light too.
Diffused Light is my favourite and, I think, the most unique, because of that kiss of yellow.
Thanks it sounds gorgeous! I'll go with Mood Light and Diffused Light then
I would try either Ethereal or Diffused. Both will brighten but won't add a lot of warmth.
Depends on the effect you're going for! If you want something for the entire face, I would probably go with Dim Light. It'll give your skin that soft-focused look that other powders can also give, but with a bit of warmth I haven't seen from other products. If you want a highlight, go with Luminous for a light champagne/hint of silver glow, or get Radiant if you want more of a sun-kissed golden look. All are beautiful choices!
Luminous & Dim were the ones I had narrowed it down to in my mind... just wanted to hear if I was on the right track. Your post confirms it! I think I'll start with one or both of those. Thanks so much!
