Housed in the same type of sleek, swiveling compact as Hourglass mineral foundation, Hourglass’ new Illume Creme-to-Powder Bronzer Duo features an elegant cream bronzer along with a subtle highlighting cream.
Because the bronzer is fairly sheer, it’s likely to work beautifully with most skin tones. If your skin tone is fair to medium, you’ll find that the bronzer is suitable for gentle contouring or for creating the illusion of being believably sun-kissed.
For darker skin tones, this bronzer will obviously have a much more subtle effect. In fact, now that my normally medium-olive skin tone has been diligently fake-baked, I’ve taken to applying Illume bronzer to my whole face.
The effect is an even skin tone with minimized imperfections and a natural glowy-warm finish that’s perfect for summer.
Highly recommended, the Hourglass Illume Creme-to-Powder Bronzer Duo is available for $40 from Sephora
or from Hourglass Cosmetics.
Has anyone tried this bronzer/highlighter duo from Hourglass? What do you think of it?
