The best without doubt makeup item i have ever bought ! I simply love the color and the texture. ...I have been wearing it to school on my no-makeup make up days and I love the glow it gives.

What it is:
A groundbreaking hybrid that combines the customized lighting effects of Ambient Lighting Powder or Strobe Powder with a spectrum of breathtakingly modern hues.

What it does:
While traditional blush tends to be flat, the Ambient® Lighting Blush Collection uses Photoluminescent Technology to exhibit depth and dimension with seamless blending. The handmade powders are formulated using an advanced miscelare technique—which means "to mix" in Italian—creating the perfect balance of pigment and powder. No two look alike.

The Ambient® Lighting Blush Collection features airy, lightweight blushes to flatter a range of skin tones.

“Also go dark tone than you usually use. I have light to light-medium skin tone and had to use medium”
disco makeup
“My eyes are sparkling with the added glitter. I bought Disco Daydream because I felt it would go with the most colors - it's my neutral glitter”
glam makeup
“Love these products and ease of use especially for a beginner to makeup. Especially like the built in brush. Good job Glamzilla and Nudestix”
glow makeup
“It’s not too thick or heavy, and is buildable coverage depending on what I need for the day. I also love the glow and finish this foundation gives. I wanted to love this product”
high contrast makeup
“This is one of my go to lip liners for a browny lip or even for some contrast with a lighter lipstick/ gloss. It’s long wear and blends so effortlessly”
glam glitter makeup
“I actually prefer Urban Decay's Heavy Metal Glitter Eye Gel to this product for lining. while the Heavy Metal product is not positioned as a liner, it packs more of a glam glitter 'punch.' however, not everyone is wanting to pay homage David Bowie circa 1972, and this product gives a more subtle look. the glitter in this product is much more fine than in the Gel and gives more of a twinkle. it is a great little product, though the spindly brush can sometimes make it difficult to 'load' with the liner”

“love this palette. the colours are gorgeous. The shimmer shadows are so pretty and blend well”

glitter makeup
“Personally I have trouble recreating makeup looks with glitter whether it be because of the fallout or the thick glitters”
