FAQs

What type of coverage does this foundation provide?

The Hourglass Ambient Soft Glow Foundation provides medium, buildable coverage, allowing you to customize your desired level of perfection.

What kind of finish can I expect from this foundation?

This foundation delivers a natural, soft glow finish, creating a seamless and 'lit-from-within' look on your skin.

How long does the foundation last?

It offers 16-hour wear and is formulated to be transfer-resistant, humidity-resistant, and sweat-resistant.

Is this foundation suitable for sensitive skin?

Yes, it is non-acnegenic and non-comedogenic, which means it is formulated not to clog pores or cause breakouts, making it suitable for a variety of skin types.

Does it protect my skin from environmental factors?

Yes, it contains Light-Diffusing Pigments that help protect against blue light, and is infused with antioxidants like White Tea Extract and Vitamin E to help protect against free radicals.

Is the Hourglass Ambient Soft Glow Foundation vegan and cruelty-free?

Yes, this foundation is both vegan and cruelty-free.

What are the key ingredients that give it its 'soft glow' effect?

The foundation is infused with blurring spheres that minimize imperfections and provide a natural soft glow, alongside light-diffusing pigments that deliver a soft-focus finish.

Troubleshooting

Foundation looks cakey or uneven.

Ensure your skin is properly prepped with moisturizer and primer. Use a smaller amount of foundation and blend thoroughly, buffing it gently into the skin with a suitable brush. Less is often more with buildable formulas.

Coverage isn't sufficient for specific imperfections.

The foundation provides medium, buildable coverage. For areas requiring more intensity, apply a small additional layer by gently tapping the product in with a Nº 8 Large Concealer Brush or Vanish Seamless Finish Concealer Brush.

The foundation doesn't last for 16 hours.

Start with well-prepped skin (moisturizer and primer). Ensure you're not touching your face excessively throughout the day. For enhanced longevity, especially in oily areas, a light dusting of setting powder can be applied (though not explicitly mentioned for this product, it's a common technique).

The 'soft glow' looks too dewy for my preference.

While designed for a soft glow, you can lightly set targeted areas, particularly the T-zone, with a translucent setting powder if you prefer a more matte look in those zones. Avoid over-powdering to retain the foundation's natural finish.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Initial Setup (First Use):

Before your first application, gently shake the foundation bottle to ensure all ingredients are well mixed. Dispense a small amount to test the shade and consistency.

Compatibility:

  • Skin Prep: This foundation performs best when applied over a well-hydrated and primed skin surface. Use your preferred moisturizer and primer beforehand.
  • Application Tools: For seamless application and finish, Hourglass recommends using their Ambient Soft Glow Foundation Brush. For targeted spot concealing, the Nº 8 Large Concealer Brush or Vanish Seamless Finish Concealer Brush are ideal companions.
  • Other Products: This foundation is designed to layer well with other Hourglass products from the Ambient Lighting Collection, such as powders and blushes, to enhance the soft-focus glow.

Product Care:

  • Storage: Store the foundation in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to maintain its consistency and efficacy.
  • Hygiene: Always apply foundation with clean hands or clean brushes to prevent contamination. Regularly clean your makeup brushes with a gentle brush cleanser.
  • Bottle Care: Keep the cap tightly secured after each use to prevent the product from drying out or being exposed to air.
