Beautifully illuminating, Hourglass has devised an irresistible new way to bronze: Ambient Lighting Bronzer. This ground-breaking hybrid fuses the universally flattering glow offered by the brand’s beloved Ambient Lighting Powder with buildable bronze pigments to provide a seamlessly sun-kissed, soft-focus finish. The handmade, magnificently marbled pans are formulated using an advanced ‘miscelare’ technique (which means ‘to mix’ in Italian) creating the perfect balance of bronze pigment and powder, enhanced with ‘Photoluminescent Technology’ to maintain vibrancy, depth and dimension. Beautifully buildable, you’re sure to be seduced by at least one of the four sumptuous shades: Ideal for fair, light complexions, ‘Luminous Bronze Light’ is a medium tan shade fused with ‘Luminous Light’ Ambient Lighting Powder, a champagne pearl illuminator for a soft, candlelit finish; for medium-deep complexions, ‘Radiant Bronze Light’ is a warm bronze shade combined with ‘Radiant Light’, a golden beige glow-giving powder that mimics a summer glow; and, finally, for light-medium skin tones, ‘Diffused Bronze Light’ is a cool bronze merged with ‘Diffused Light’ Ambient Lighting Powder, a soft, pale yellow powder.

Love this bronzer
Love the Hourglass products and general and this bronzer is one of the best. Gives this satin finish, like after a couple of days suntanning.

Mediocre
I'm glad I only purchased the travel size of this because I just can't get to grips with it. I'm not a full MUA but I'm also not a novis. This just caked everywhere, it sat in the lines, is more shimmery on the skin than is advertised. I tried a few different methods but didn't like it, it doesn't blend very well so now we will just leave it for the odd eye shadow look. A shame really.

Nice but not great
Stunning bronzer which is super sparkly, but in terms of bronze I wouldn’t say it’s that intense and to be honest not that noticeable… it’s better as a highlighter! Still nice for a super subtle look

Ok
This is only an ok bronzer, it’s barely noticeable on the skin which is good for a subtle look but most times I use it I’m not even sure that any product has been picked up by the brush. The product I received had much more light pigment than streaks of bronzer and didn’t really look like the photo so I’m not sure if that’s the reason I don’t see any product on my face or if the bronzer is just too subtle for me (I have very fair skin so it’s not hard for a bronzer to be noticeable)

Beautiful
I have a light neutral complexion, this bronzer adds such a beautiful sheen and colour to the face. Even for a travel size I feel like it will last me a good while

Lovely bronzer but…
Lovely bronzer, as with all Hourglass products, the quality is lovely, and the colour “diffused bronzer light”, is lovely on fair skin. The only downside that I would say is that the size of the product in relation to the full size is absolutely ridiculous. I’ve ordered a travel size blush from Hourglass before, and the size was absolutely fine, just slightly smaller than full-size bronzer; but this one was TINY! It honestly seems more like an eyeshadow. I recommend buying it, but maybe the full-size product rather than this one.

Luxurious
Love this product totally worth the hype and price. It’s seamless and universal I use it for daily makeup to add little life/colour to my face and eyelids. I have the travel version but it looks like this will last a while so would definitely repurchase and planning to buy one of the travel size blushes too.

Very good
Great formula, I just expected it to be a bit cooler toned, but I can still work with it. Issue is I don’t think this pan-size can work with any bronzer brush.
