What the gurus are saying
The Ambient Lighting Powders earn consistent praise for their versatile, natural glow that works across multiple areas of the face without looking overdone. One reviewer loves them as a 2024 favorite, and another raves about layering the three shades for a warm, luminous look using them as highlighter, blush, or bronzer across cheekbones, lids, and brow bone. The main caveat: the glass palette and powders are fragile, reviewers report cracking and even finding a bug in an opened compact, so handle with care.
