What It Is / Concept

This is a multi-product face palette combining finishing / ambient powders, blush(es), bronzer, and highlighter in one compact for a full radiant look.

The palette is part of Hourglass’s Ambient Lighting Edit line (holiday / limited editions) and in recent versions is titled “Unlocked” or “Universe / Universe Unlocked” depending on shade mix.

Each palette contains six shades (blend of new + bestselling) that can be used singly or layered for dimension and glow.
✅ Key Features & Technology
| Feature | Description / Benefit |
|---|---|
| Photoluminescent Technology | Powder formula engineered to diffuse harsh light and softly filter it, giving skin a “lit-from-within” glow and minimizing harshness or flashback. |
| Finishing / Ambient Powders | Blurring / diffuse powders that help smooth texture, even skin tone, and unify the finish (i.e. act like a finishing or setting powder) |
| Blush / Bronzer / Highlighter Mix | The palette includes color products (blush, bronzer, and strobe/highlighting powders) so you don’t need to carry separate compacts. |
| Layering / Buildable Use | Shades are designed to work alone or layered for multidimensional effect (for customizing the glow / tone) |
| Limited-Edition Packaging & Artwork | Many editions come in collectible packaging (e.g. tin compacts, special artwork by artists like Sasha) |
| Philanthropic Angle | Hourglass pledges 5% of profits from these limited palette collections to the Nonhuman Rights Project (animal rights organization). |
