Mary-Lou Manizer By The Balm|More Than 1 Way

 

Here’s the outer packaging of Mary-Lou Manizer:

Now this is not the new line from the Balm Cosmetics, you can actually buy ’em online or at Sephora, so I’m excited to want to give you a closer look at what is a major contender for Cutest Beauty Product in my Beauty World. You probably have this product or seen many youtubers raving and talking about this luminizer but did you know that it can also work on as a highlighter, shimmer and shadow? I’m very curious so, I got one to try it out myself for you here in my post.

Does it actually live up to the hype? Let’s see!

It gets even better when you open up the box, because this is what you get:

Mary-Lou Manizer, a seemingly innocent honey-hued luminizer that catches everybody’s eye in a metal tin compact packaging. Oh yes, whoever works at theBalm knows exactly how to get to us.

I should mention, the selling point with these isn’t just the pretty packaging. This is a powder luminizer that is supposed to have lasting power without fading.

It has a good size round mirror in this compact disc which is brilliant to bring in your purse. I love this packaging inside out.

Obviously, you’re going to blend it out more than this, but I have to say—this highlighter is SUPER-pigmented. Even though it has a tiny bit of shimmer through it, you don’t notice it on the skin.

And here’s what they look like on the skin:

As for the wear time, I noticed some fade after about five hours or so, but that could just be because they are so pigmented, I only applied a small amount.

I have several ways to wear this luminizer so leave your eyes peeled: lol! This method I called it strobing. To place highlighter where the light hits for a natural looking finish.

The standard area to put the luminizer is as a highlighter on top of the cheek bones but you can also apply them on several other areas for definition.

On the high point of my forehead, the tip of the nose, on the cupid’s bow and on the high point where the light hits for extra bang!

I also wear it on top of my brow bone, on top of my brow bone, on the tear duct  on for more definition.
