Hello again! Today I'm reviewing two of the "Lumanizers" from The Balm.
The Lumanizers retail for $24 on https://www.thebalm.com/.
Just look at how absolutely adorable that packaging is.. if that isn't a selling point, then I don't know what is!

On the left is The Balms "Cindy-Lou Manizer" it's not super shimmery, but it is very pigmented. I like to use this one as a blush topper over my matte blushes to give my cheeks a nice glow without being too much.
On the right we have The Balms "Mary-Lou Manizer" this one is my holy grail highlight. It's pigmentation is amazing. It's a very shimmery, intense champagne color. You have to use a very light hand with this one or else you will without a doubt look like a disco ball, but it gives me the most amazing highlight on my cheekbones!
You can tell from the swatches above that "Cindy-Lou Manizer" (on the left) isn't as shimmery as "Mary-Lou Manizer" (on the right) but they both have great pigmentation. I use them both equally for different reasons. If you are looking for a super intense highlight, I'd choose "Mary-Lou Manizer" over the other one any day of the week. Do I think they are worth $24? Yes, and no. I would pay $24 to get "Mary-Lou Manizer" again in a heartbeat! I absolutely love the intense highlight it gives and I will repurchase it if I ever run out. (Although, I don't see that happening anytime soon because you only need the tiniest bit of product!) But honestly, there are other pink toned highlights out there that I like better than "Cindy-Lou Manazer", however, I will continue to use it until it's gone.
I hope you found this review helpful, and I'll see you in the next one!
