How to check who sells Hourglass on Amazon
- Browsing from outside the US, set a US delivery address first; any ZIP will do, 10001 works. Without one Amazon fills the buy box with import and reseller offers. That is how Charlotte Tilbury, Dyson and Clinique once looked unstocked to us, when Amazon.com sold all three.
- Read the two lines beside Add to Cart, “Ships from” and “Sold by”. For Hourglass you want Hourglass's own store (“Hourglass Cosmetics”).
- If another name is there, open “Other sellers on Amazon”. Amazon.com or the brand sometimes sells the same listing one row down, at the same price or close to it.
Cheaper matches for Hourglass, sold by Amazon.com or their brand
e.l.f. Cosmetics Halo Glow Soft Focus Setting Powder
for Hourglass Ambient Lighting Finishing Powder
$8 against $58, 80% less per ounce ($33.35 / oz versus $164.43 / oz).
Both are finishing powders meant to soften texture while leaving the skin lit rather than matte.
What it does worse: e.l.f.'s is loose and lightly luminous, so it blurs less firmly than a pressed powder and travels worse in a bag.
L'Oréal Paris Infallible Full Wear Waterproof Concealer
for Hourglass Vanish Airbrush Concealer
$16 against $39, 75% less per ounce ($47.32 / fl oz versus $192.23 / fl oz).
Both are waterproof, full-coverage liquid concealers held in a silicone emulsion with the same emulsifier, cetyl PEG/PPG-10/1 dimethicone, and hectorite to keep the pigment suspended.
What it does worse: Hourglass sets softer and more skin-like, with green tea and centella extracts, while L'Oréal dries to a flat matte and comes with an oversized applicator made to cover dark circles and scars in one stroke.
Milani Highly Rated Lash Extensions Tubing Mascara – Black
for Hourglass Unlocked Instant Extensions Tubing Mascara
$13.97 against $34, 59% less per ounce ($39.73 / fl oz versus $96.68 / fl oz). Both list Carnauba wax and Castor oil and Shea butter.
The same tubing formula with a few lines swapped: water, the acrylates/ethylhexyl acrylate copolymer that sets into tubes around each lash, glyceryl stearate, glycerin, alcohol, dimethicone, VP/eicosene copolymer, carnauba wax and stearic acid make up nine of the first ten ingredients on both lists, with castor oil and shea butter further down.
What it does worse: Hourglass uses a molded brush, and Milani adds jojoba esters, sunflower and acacia waxes and niacinamide.
