JOURNEY TO VEGAN
Our compassion for animals has always been at the heart of Hourglass, and in 2017, we began to re-examine what it meant to be truly cruelty-free. We decided that in order for us to move forward with integrity, we had to push not only for ingredients that haven't been tested on animals but also for ingredients that aren’t derived from them.

While the majority of our collection was already vegan, we committed ourselves to replace a few animal byproducts in select formulations, pledging to become 100% vegan by 2020. Leveraging our passion for innovation and ingredient technology, we got to work on creating cutting-edge vegan replacements.

By December 2020, we successfully reformulated our remaining products to be fully vegan and are celebrating this milestone with the launch of Confession™ Red 0. Our biggest innovation to date, Red 0 is a 100% vegan red lipstick formulated with our patent-pending replacement for carmine—the industry’s standard red pigment produced from crushed female insects. Red 0 symbolizes our commitment to animal welfare and marks a new chapter in our ongoing commitment to cruelty-free beauty.

Should you splurge or save? Hourglass Veil Primer for $54 or Elf Body Primer for $9. So Hourglass actually did a good job concealing some of my redness and it has a bit of white cast. Also it feels like silicone. Now let's test it with a foundation. They actually both look good in person and in camera. But all I can say is that Elfside actually did a bad job hiding my redness or maybe it's because of the foundation too. If you zoom in, you can see that my dry patches are so obvious. If you have oily skin, then this will work for you. On the other hand, my combination skin looks good in this sun. Even my dry patches are so silky and smooth. Plus it has SPF too. So I would say, splurge.

Hi guys, okay so today I'm going to be reviewing the Veil Mineral Primer by Hourglass. This product is bomb. It allowed me to create a great base for my foundation. The first thing that I noticed was how silky and smooth it was just applying it in to the touch. This product, oh my god, when I tell you that it is amazing, it's amazing. It minimizes pores, it minimizes fine lines, and when I was applying my foundation I was very very shocked just how great it was. I didn't even need to apply my setting spray immediately after. That's just how bomb this product is. 10 out of 10, highly recommend.

Hey everyone, so this is my face without any makeup on. As you can see it's quite shiny, my pores are quite large and it's definitely acne prone. When I found out that Flip app is carrying hourglass mineral oil, I flipped and I love it. It's actually one of the best mineral primers for skin like mine to actually wear foundation and not be shiny 30 minutes later because that's what I would always get. I would just get this dryness and then ultimate shine and oily face the moment I would put foundation. So I wanted to show you what it looks like. So I just washed my face and put some moisturizing oil maybe. Then before makeup I put just a little bit on and just look how different. The shine just goes away.

I'm gonna be talking about the hourglass mineral primer. I'm literally gonna squeeze like half a Squeeze and like it just covers my entire face the coverage is insane and It smooths out so well Better than the Tatcha primer better than the touch and soul It allows the makeup to grip onto the skin very well it just absorbs immediately It'll last me at least like till the end of the year so a couple more months first I just wanted to show you how my skin looked like before my makeup. It's really smooth You can see it's not super oily ever since I put the primer on hopefully it'll stay on in the heat So I'm gonna play my makeup and come back omg. Can we just take a minute because no pores no acne I'm literally glowing and thank you to this primer

It's a nice glass packaging and it has a pump. The primer is white and honestly it does leave a little bit of a white cast on me because of the sunscreen. But I'm gonna put foundation over it anyway so it doesn't bother me. It doesn't have much of a scent. It does smell a tiny bit like sunscreen but it does feel very moisturizing on the skin. And it works very well with the foundation that I'm gonna use after. So, next video.

This is the first time I've ever gotten it 30% off which is on the flip app. But the cool thing about this is once you run out of the pump you can still scrape the bottle for all that's left in it.

So yeah, that was my makeup today. I'm about to go to bed so I already took it off. But I wanted to tell y'all that Hourglass Velvet Primer was step one to that look. It's worth it. It's so soft. It feels like velvet. It held all day. And that kills me. I love it. You should get it.

about to get personal because I am reviewing the Veil Mineral Primer and I used to use this forever ago like when I was a teenager. I don't know why because I had like no pores back then and now I have terrible pores. It's actually like the one thing I'm trying to fix right now because it is so bad but look at my skin. That looks pretty good. Like I have not been digging the pore primer that I was using before. Like I feel like it did nothing and it was so thick and heavy and when I put my makeup on it was like nothing happened. This when you I put one pump in my hand and I rubbed it together and it felt like there was nothing in my hands. When you put on your face it feels like there's nothing on your face. It's like soft silky and you would think it would not be that great but I'm digging it.

Hey guys, coming at you today with Hourglass Veil Mineral Primer. This is the first part of your skincare routine, so after you wash your face, put it on under your foundation and it's supposed to make all of your makeup go on smooth and be long lasting. It is oil free. I felt that there was a little bit of stickiness or heaviness in certain parts of my face, noticeably my forehead, but after wearing my makeup for about an hour, it seems to be pretty bright, staying on well. It actually went on smoothly when I was doing my full face. So we'll see how it holds up the rest of the day. We'll report back after some wear and tear, but overall, so far so good.

This Hourglass primer feels so silky smooth And it has 15 SPF My foundation never looks this smooth

Hey guys, so I am getting ready for a rare night out, and so I figured as I'm using Flip Products, I'd kind of take you along with me. So the first thing I'm going to do is this Hourglass Veil. This is a primer, and honestly not a step I do often, only kind of when I'm trying to do more of like a look. But it is kind of like a smoothing and perfecting primer. You want to be sure that you're really well moisturized before you use this one because it can be a little bit drying, and I don't know that it would work so well on deeper skin tones because I do feel like it does have a little bit of a white cast because it does have an SPF of 15 in it.

So I tried out the Hourglass Veil Mineral Primer SPF 15 today, and I have some thoughts. The first thought is that it comes out very white, and it takes quite a bit of effort to blend out that white. Now, it did eventually blend out on me, but as you can see, I am very fair, so I cannot speak to deeper skin tones if you would ever be able to blend out that white entirely. My other thought was that while it did give a very airbrushed and blurred effect to my skin, it did cause my very dewy foundation to set down more than usual. So my dry skin folks, this might not be for you. However, I do typically like most of what Hourglass puts out, so I am excited to keep trying this one.

This is the Hourglass Veil Mineral Primer and I'm really really liking it so far. I like the texture of it, that it's kind of like a thin lotion-y texture. It doesn't feel really thick, but it does really blur and smooth lines, which I love.

This is the Veil Mineral Primer by Hourglass. Comes in an oil-free cream formula that blends into the skin in a silk-like texture. Leaves a slight white cast, but it disappears underneath your makeup. It also has SPF 15, and it is great for all.

Trying out for the first time, always wanted to try it, the Hourglass Veil Primer. There you go, it's a really beautiful bottle. Always wanted to try it, just never have, don't even know why. But, let's go ahead and... I always smell things. I don't really like strong scents. This is a very nice smooth scent. Very silky, feels like butter. I really like that. That's light, I like that. It'll be interesting to see if it blends well with my foundation and doesn't rub off. I typically don't do an SPF because sometimes there's that white light in the background, but we'll see how this one goes. So far, it feels great.

Okay guys, so I wanted to talk to you about the Veil Soft Focus Setting Spray by Hourglass. This is by far and away the most amazing setting spray that I have ever used in my entire life. You have to shake it up really well before you use it, and then you just spray it on like any other setting spray I suppose, but it dries down like almost instantly, and then I set it with a setting powder. But my makeup does not budge. I did my makeup this morning and it is still completely intact after using it. I can't recommend it enough. It is kind of expensive, but I will say that a bottle of this lasts me a good couple of months, and I am using it every single day, legit. For sure, I would recommend it, and then you get it 30% off on Flip, so can't beat that. Yeah, so I would...

I'm gonna show you this hack that will keep your makeup long-lasting and transfer-proof. After you apply sunscreen, spray the first layer. While you wait for that to dry, add setting spray to your foundation and mix it in. You wanna apply that evenly to your face and press it in with a beauty sponge. Then spray a second layer and wait for it to set. Apply setting powder if you like a matte finish. Lastly, spray again to set everything.

The Veil Mineral Primer by Hourglass was reviewed by Aimee in a video comparing it to the Elf Body Primer. Aimee mentioned that the Hourglass primer effectively concealed redness and provided a smooth finish, although it did have a slight white cast and silicone-like feel. When tested with foundation, both primers looked good in person and on camera. However, the Elf primer did not effectively hide redness and emphasized dry patches when zoomed in. Aimee noted that the Hourglass primer worked well for oily skin and left a silky and smooth finish, while also offering SPF protection. Overall, Aimee recommended splurging on the Veil Mineral Primer by Hourglass.
