Hourglass Holiday Ambient Lighting Edit Unlock Palette It was released this year in 2025 and is beautiful! I got 3 out of 4 and have already put it in my test using the demo on Instagram. I think there are similar shades as many repetitions, but I think these are great. Due to popular requests, I compared the reviews alongside the previous year’s palette.
All pallets are now officially available Nordstrom, Sephora, Bluemercury, The beauty of Ulta and hourglass ($94 each). Each palette has a matching dual end Ambient Lighting Editing Brush II ($52 each). Horse Palette It’s exclusively for Sephora.
moreover, Face and eye travel brush set, Bestseller Set and Sculpt Gloss Duo. I’m looking at the brush set, but it looks like a mini or short handle from stock photos. I still have and own Vegan Travel Brush Set (All of this is in full size) I love and use it every week, but this year’s new one is perfect for a more compact option.
Deer palette
Deer palette It is the lightest option and I think it is beautiful for a more natural look. You can see it It’s working here. On my tan skin, the colour is pulled even more on the side that is barely there, but when I first apply a cream or liquid blush, the powder is applied with a little more pigment when it layers.
- Finish the powder dream light
- Finishing Powder Aura Light (New)
- Bronzer diffused bronze light
- Highlighter Rainbow Strobe Light
- Blushing Radiation (New)
- Blushing bright pink (new)

I pulled to compare last year’s Dragon Palette from last year’s 2024 sample.
Swan Palette
Swan Palette It’s a medium tone option and I love it. I think all the shades look very similar to the previous year’s options (even newer shades), but that Mauve Purple is so beautiful that I think this is worth watching. If you had to choose one to travel using this, it seems you’ll get the most visual options with three different blush tones. You can see it It’s working here.
- Finishes powder twilight
- Highlighter Pen Golden Hour (New)
- Bronzer Natural Bronze
- Blushing emitting coral (new)
- Blushing Sunset Flash (New)
- Blushing Maube Fusion (New)

I pulled and compared last year’s Evil Eye Palette 2024. I think I like the look from last year, especially with the pink highlighter, but both are very beautiful.
Horse Palette
Horse Palette and Brush Both are exclusively for Sephora and come in all repetitive shades. I think this is my favorite of all three, but there are all iterations, so if you already own a palette from the previous year, you might want to shop for a stash. You can see it It’s working here.
- Powder soft light finish
- Blushing mood exposure
- Highlighter Supernatural Strobe Light
- Blushing rainbow coral
- Blushing rainbow rose
- Bronzer makes the shining bronze light shine
The worn makeup is the same as above, but the lip color is Unlocked lipstick With Dahlia. Mood exposure below + shining bronze light.

I had a bit of a struggle to choose which one to compare this, but I decided to draw a sample from Leopard 2023, and I think the Horse 2025 palette is similar given the repetition.
Overall love. The brushes are beautiful and I think they are very well made. The consensus is mixed based on the feedback I have given me so far. Some of you are in love with the release, but others still feel that there are too many repetitive and similar shades. At this point, I have gathered holiday launches over the years so I definitely don’t need another one. I’m still really looking forward to launch and have gotten a lot of use from these. Usually, there are one or two shades I’m not into, so palettes can be hard to love, but in these, all shades are wearable. You too love being able to mix and layer. They are really perfect for travel, or if you need to throw something into your wallet, you need to put your makeup out.
I skipped the darkest palette fox, as the deepest ones are usually too dark for me. I’ve seen lots of great tutorials that will make you want to check it out. If I pick it up, I’ll do another review.
All new hourglass palettes are available. You can find it at Nordstrom, Sephora, Bluemercury, The beauty of Ulta and hourglass.
