Does the Ambient Lighting Powder palette live up to the hype? I eye it every time but always pass because of the price.
I use Dim Light all over and to set my under eye concealer and Radiant Light lightly over my bronzer. If you've been on the fence about trying the Ambient Light Powders, this is a great introduction palette. I've had mine for a couple of months and it still looks brand new!


I think the only items I have in mind for the sale are a couple of Audacious lipsticks, maybe a MUFE Artist Shadow trio annnd the Bite Holiday set? I'm so indecisive before things go on sale/are released that I may say one thing and end up with something completely different. I blame MAC LE collections.

You need them! I only have 01 Always Red and 03 Strawberry Kissed and they're amazing.

I even bought the Hourglass brush that goes with the palette. It's a nice brush that picks up the right amount of product

I've been on a makeup cleanse for most of this year trying to use up my stash and hold off makeup purchases until this sale.
The problem is that my cart is big, I have $1100 worth of stuff in my cart I've been eyeing all year (there are some xmas gifts in there too)
I keep trying to cut it down but damn is it hard.
I have both of the Hourglass palettes in there, a couple perfumes, Glamglow, some of the Sephora favorites kits and a few things from the ABH line I've been waiting to try along with some other lipsticks/foundations and potentially some xmas gifts. I'm honestly wondering if I should bother requalifying for VIB Rouge though (Rouge is the only reason I consider getting xmas gifts from Sephora) because it hasn't seemed great this year.

I hit pan on my Mac Lightscapade and I'm wondering if any of y'all thought the Hourglass palette would be a suitable replacement, I'm NC15 so pale, any opinions?

The hourglass ambient lighting palette would be a great alternative. It is a great buy, for an even better price. You get to enjoy 3 diff shades over just one from MAC. Go for iy. As for cutting down your sephora list, try cutting out items you have any second thoughts about.

Hmm who here has dry skin? can anyone recommend a foundation to try?
What kindof coverage are you looking for? I usually mostly light/medium coverage foundations. My top three would be -Chanel Vita Lumiere Aqua (light coverage) -YSL Touche Eclat (light/medium) -NARS Sheer Glow (medium) Neutrogena healthy skin has a place in my heart as well. That was my first foundation and its still a good one IMO. Ive started using the Tarte powder foundation, the mineral one, and its AMAZING!! It looks so natural and the coverage is great. The staying power is awesome too. You dont need the brush, any smaller kabuki brush will work. HTH :heart:

Hey ladies, hope everyone is doing well. I know I haven't been around much lately just the occasional post once in a while. Truth is I've been dealing with some health issues. I haven't been feeling well and saw a few doctors. They think I might have Hodgkin's lymphoma. I've gone in for blood work, ct scan and other tests but still waiting on all the results. Just feeling really tired and run down. I enjoy reading all your posts. I just haven't been much into makeup lately. Well... I do want to get lime crimes wicked :) I guess you can't keep a true addict down forever right?
Thinking of you Melrose :heart: Really hope you feel better soon.

Light to Medium coverage, so the once you listed are perfect, thank you!
Really the Tarte powder foundation, hmm I will look into it. I always figured a powder foundation would look well dry.
But now I am looking forward to trying it.
I've used the Neutrogena Healthy skin in the past and love it. I should re-purchase it aswell.

Thank you so much mel!

V did you order yet? I keep going back & forth on stuff. Are you getting the hourglass blush palette? Should I get ted diffused light? I have dim, luminous and ethereal. What's good for medium skin tone
I did!! I got the blush palette!!
girlhaha.gif

I think both diffused & Radiant will look really pretty on medium skintones!! I got moodlight since i liked the idea of a lavender pink powder!!


Edit: This is a writeup on the shades for diff skintones. This is what I went by!
