They had the blushes up for preorder on Space NK - $35 and £28. They're gone now though but they looked beautiful. I managed to preorder Dim Infusion last night. Luminous Flush also looked very pretty on the site.

Dim Infusion: A subdued coral blush fused with Dim Light to add warmth.
Diffused Heat: A vibrant poppy blush combined with Diffused Light for a subtle halo effect.
Luminous Flush: A champagne rose blush fused with Luminous Light to evoke a candlelit glimmer.
Radiant Magenta: A golden fuchsia blush combined with Radiant Light for a summer glow.
Mood Exposure: A soft plum blush fused with Mood Light to brighten the complexion.
Ethereal Glow: A cool pink blush fused with Ethereal Light for a moonlit luminosity.
They sound so good! I like Mood Exposure best from the descriptions. I checked SpaceNK the other day hoping they already had them. Too bad I didn't see them.

I am super excited about these! Sephora online is not familiar about this launch however will call my local store when they open . I think this is brilliant and interesting. I only own Radiant light so would take great pleasure seeing the potentional transformation of all of them

Do we think the pic above is Radiant Magenta? If so, I think that one will follow me home.

I'm wondering if the finish of these will be a bit like the MAC Pearlmattes; I have both Flower Fantasy and Flatter Me and I like both as sheer glowy blush (mostly in the summer).
I think it could be Ethereal Glow or Diffused Heat. For Dim and Diffused they had the same pic but it was more coral looking to me so I assumed it was the Dim one. Radiant Magenta was definitely more purple from what I remember and also a little cooler looking.

Unless there's a filter on the pic, i don't think it's Ethereal Glow because Ethereal Light is very white. Maybe Diffused Heat then - whatever it is, it's tempting.

Thank you so much for posting this! I love that these are like the "next level" of Ambient Lighting Powders, a combination of colour with the existing shades.

That was exactly what I thought, although part of me wonders how different they would be than just taking a blush in the suggested colour and combining it with the corresponding powder... I'm still probably going to end up with all of them...

My friend took a screenshot of one of them, on her blog she has the pic for what I am fairly sure is Luminous Flush.

Yup, that one is Luminous Flush! Based on the images they had on SpaceNK, I don't think the one in the teaser is Radiant, Ethereal or Mood. Maybe Luminous or Dim/Diffused. I wish SpaceNK hadn't used the same image for Dim & Diffused - I'm afraid I'll get something that's a little more orange than I planned for :)

If that's Luminous Flush, that's the one I'm getting. It's beautiful. I'll have to check out Dim Infusion as well, although I'm more likely to have dupes of that.

Diffused & Ethereal are the 2 powders I don't have... So maybe those are the blush colors I'll try! Just trying to rationalize a purchase. Like AudreyC said, if these are the original powders swirled w a blush... I'm guessing I could dupe that color w my powder mixed w a similar blush shade! So I think I'll spring for the 2 colors that I don't have the powder match first!! In excited to try these as much as I love my powders!!

I guess I won't be getting these blushes though they sound beautiful.. I already own all of the AL powders.. oh well, more money to go towards something else :)

Diffused is a gorgeous powder; I'd been using NARS Light Reflecting loose powder until I got this, but this one has quickly become my favourite. If you choose this one, I don't think you'd be disappointed (assuming you like the blush colour as well).

^ I second this. I have four of the six full size powders, plus the ambient lighting palette and I think Diffused is my favourite of all of them. I haven't tried it with the sort of blush they're suggesting... Will have to give it a try.

I was still able to find this although the blushes are gone from the SpaceNK site.



I have no idea which one to get. And how to afford it, lol. I don't think I have the patience to wait if there ever will be a voucher again to at least save the shipping costs.
