I know my review is a bit late in the beauty blogging world, but let me throw in my two cents! I bought these during the Sephora 15% off sale a couple of months ago, and I'd been enjoying them eversince. These are the immensely popular HOURGLASS Ambient Lighting blush. The reason they're so in-demand is that they give off a kiss of color and this ethereal glow on the cheeks that is neither too glitter nor shimmery. The radiant glow is just obvious to the observer without it looking too garish or obvious.

I got three of the Ambient Lighting Blushes, namely Radiant Magenta, Diffused Heat and Mood Exposure. Below are close-up shots and swatches of the HOURGLASS Ambient Lighting Blushes, as well as my thoughts on these.

Zoya Tickled Collection Swatches, Review



I just posted swatches of the beautiful Zoya Bubbly collection which is a glitter infused collection of nail polishes that Zoya offers for summer 2014. This time, I am showing the cream counterpart of Bubbly: Zoya Tickled. It's a group of six creamy, summery shades that herald the coming of warmer weather.

Here are my thoughts and swatches of the new Zoya Tickled collection and my thoughts on these.

Zoya Tilda

Zoya Tilda

Zoya Tilda is a gorgeous avocado cream. I love greens especially during spring and summer, so this color is definitely up my alley.



Zoya Kirtridge
Zoya Kirtridge
Zoya Kirtridge is a pretty light pink cream. I've always thought that very light pinks don't look well on my skintone, but I noticed that Kirtridge looked especially clean and feminine on the nails.


Zoya Rooney

Zoya Rooney

Zoya Rooney is a mid-tone pink cream. Not a favorite because I already have one too many shades of pink like this.

Zoya Rocha

Zoya Rocha is hands-down my number one favorite from this collection. Who wouldn't find this stunning bright coral breathtaking? I love how bright it looks. Corals and oranges don't usually flatter my skintone, but I love how gorgeous this looks.

Zoya Ling

Zoya Ling is a beautiful mid-tone Dodgers kind of blue cream. I love how creamy and shiny it looks.




Zoya Wendy is my second favorite from this collection next to Roshka. It's a lighter, less orange version of Roshk, but also beautiful. It's quite summery looking and I think is the perfect summer mani/pedi color.

All in all, I am loving the cream formula of the Zoya Tickled collection. They might be streaky on the first coat, but everthing evens out on the second or even third coat. These are also great with nail art. They work great under nail stamp art and glitter toppers. They also last a pretty long time on my nails compared to other nail lacquers I've tried (I do use an air-dry gel base coat, so I think that contributed to the long wear time).

What are your favorites from this collection?
