Meet theBalm’s Cindy-Lou Manizer

January 8th, 2014 by Karen 30 Comments

It’s theBalm…

DUDE! That is so balm…

Get it? theBalm…?

LOL! Sorry. I never get tired of doing that. 🙂

What can I say? I love ’90s slang.

I also love highlighters, like this new one here, Cindy-Lou Manizer ($24), a beautiful opalescent peachy pink with a soft sheen finish.

You can wear it as a highlighter with your favorite corals, peaches or warmish pink blushes, or use it as an eyeshadow.

Today I wore it on the tops of my cheekbones and down the bridge of my nose. I like that it’s shiny, but not so shiny that my skin looks oily when I wear it.

Gonna try it in my inner corners next.

It’s available online now and coming this spring at theBalm counters.

    I think this would be a bit too colourful for me as a highlighter – I’m so pale I might have to use it as a blush!

    I own the Mary-Lou Manizer right now and love it, though now I’m wondering if this would look better on my skin tone. (olive-toned, NC25 – though leans more neutral) Any thoughts? Since I lean neutral I’m really terrible at determining what would look good on my skin haha.

    I adore theBalm. Betty and Mary are regulars in my rotation so naturally they’ve invited Cindy to party. Such a perfect glow without glitter from the others so I’m sure Cindy will be just as lovely.

    This may seem silly, but does anyone know(or could help) me find the box to put a coupon code on the balm website? I’m ready to checkout and I have a 10% off code, but I see no box to input it…. Thanks!

    Do you think it’s enough to make the Grinch’s heart grow three times? Get it? Cindy-Lou? Like Cindy Lou Who? 🙂 It’s seriously quite pretty, though.

    I’m not a huge Balm fan but love the kitschy name and the wear on this! Do you think skin tones lighter would still be ok with it?

About Makeup and Beauty Blog

Welcome to Makeup and Beauty Blog
Hi there! I’m Karen, your friendly neighborhood beauty addict, and I’m a Bay Area girl who hoards brown eyeshadow and covets coral lipstick. Every morning, I wake up and say, “I’m going to do something other than a smoky eye today.” Then…I end up doing a smoky eye anyway (most days). When I’m not putting on makeup, taking pictures of makeup or writing about makeup, which I’ve been doing daily since 2007 (!), you’ll find me hanging out with my hubby (“El Hub”), my four-year-old daughter (Connor Claire) and my torbie girl cat (Pretty Girl Rosie, a.k.a. PGR).
