Good news for us all! The festive season has arrived and I could practically pinch myself with excitement. To kick-start all the fun, I thought we could look over the lineup for Hourglass’s Holiday 2020 collection. More specifically? The limited edition 6-pan Ambient Lighting Sculpture palette (what a mouthful!) that is sure to be one of the most coveted beauty items of the season.

Hourglass Holiday 2020 Collection

For the holidays this year, Hourglass has released a small but mighty collection of golden goodies that are sure to please even in the most pick beauty lover on your gift list. The items, if I must say so, also make for a terrific little gift for yourself. In a year such as this one, we all deserve to treat ourselves to something special that we will continue to enjoy in the much anticipated New Year.

The Hourglass 2020 Hourglass collection is now available and includes a Confession Refillable Lipstick Duo ($48) and TWO palettes with their much-beloved Ambient Lighting powders. The mini quad is priced $58 and includes a blush, bronzer and two highlighter options to glisten-up your cheeks. Then, *drumroll* the stunning larger 9-pan palette ($80) you see photographed here comes into play. It has a duo of face powders, two blushes, a marbled bronzer and frosty highlighter tucked inside one beautiful package.

I truly feel any of the limited edition items from the Hourglass Holiday 2020 collection will make for the perfect token of appreciation for someone you love this holiday season. These gifts are ones your mom or a close friend will enjoy as they ready themselves for the day, thinking of you as they rosy up their cheeks and impressing the world with their radiant glow.

Hourglass Holiday 2020 Ambient Lighting Palette

Surely we all agree, the Hourglass Holiday 2020 Ambient Lighting palette is undeniably gorgeous! Every time one of these beautiful treasures are released I have my eye on it and this year I simply couldn’t resist. Hourglasses’s beloved Ambient Lighting powders have garnered a cult following around the globe and I’ve immensely enjoyed using them individually through the years. They deliver a soft, romantic glow to the skin that’s beautiful at any time of the year – but especially during the festive season.

Tucked inside the 6-pan Ambient Lighting Sculpture Edit palette are three best-selling shades from the Ambient collection as well as a limited edition blush, bronzer and highlighter. It’s so handy to have so many complexion favorites together!

Perfect for Travel or Quick Makeup

Palettes like these are the ones I reach for the most when packing for any travels away from my home vanity or those mornings when I’m spent to much time lingering around coffee hour and need to get out the door. Having the powders, bronzer, blush and highlight nicely together in a beautiful compact is so useful as is the full-sized mirror.

Great Gift for Beginners and Beauty Mavens Alike

The luxurious quality of Hourglass’s ambient powders is unmatched and to have them beautifully tucked inside a compact as one very happy family makes for the perfect gift for someone special in your life. Beauty lovers are sure to know about these game-changing powders and how highly sought after any limited edition palette Hourglass releases is. To find this under a Christmas tree will make for a perfect treat and spark joy when unwrapped.

Likewise, the user friendliness of a well-rounded palette such as this one perfect for those who are just started out on their makeup journey and looking to build a collection of great basics. I don’t think you could get off on a much better foot than with this palette!

For Light to Medium Skintones

While I treasure my Holiday 2020 Ambient Lighting palette and am so pleased that it works well for my complexion, I do want to caution that sadly I don’t think the bronzer is suited for darker skintones. It would’ve been so nice if there were to shade options available and hopefully that is feedback Hourglass will hear and take into thoughtful consideration when designing future palettes we can all thoroughly love.
