theBalm Mary-Lou Manizer

This product has a cult following in the beauty world. When you say highlighter, this one will definitely pop into mind if you have even remotely heard of it, and since becoming the proud owner of this gorgeous makeup product, I must say I agree with all the hype. It is also marketed as an eyeshadow and a blush, but it can't work as a blush I think, not even on a very fair skin tone. But it can make for a beautiful eyeshadow.



Price: Varies from 80-120 dhs.

Packaging: Its a cute packaging with a good sized mirror inside. I hear that the product itself pops due to lack of proper adhesive, but even though I did drop the pouch mines was in, it neither shattered nor popped out, phew!

The inside
Product: This product almost fooled me to be a cream, but it is a very buttery powder, blends beautifully, gives a brilliant champagne shine wherever it is applied. A little goes a long way, you just need to slightly touch the product, give is a tap and apply it on tops of your cheek bones to give a lovely sheen or amp it up a bit for a high shimmer finish. You can use it a brow bone highlight, on the tops of your cupids bow, along the bridge of your nose or inner corners of your eyes. It is very pigmented and long lasting. Definitely worth every penny.
