theBalm Mary-Lou Manizer Highlighter, Shadow & Shimmer - Gold
Assuming this industry favorite isn’t already in your vanity, we suggest you stock up ASAP. We’re obviously talking about the theBalm Mary-Lou Manizer Highlighter, Shadow & Shimmer-Gold. Popular amongst millennials, this honey-hued luminizer is an ideal middle-of-the-road hue that looks natural on just about everyone. Here’s the catch though. This subtle shimmer is densely pigmented so you won't have to worry about a meltdown should you choose to strobe to galactic levels. The only thing that’s gonna shine brighter than you on that dance floor, are your killer cheekbones.

Presenting none other than our very own inhouse starlet, the Nykaa Matte Nail Enamel - Ruby Blaze. This plush crimson polish turns nails into a jewel-toned accessory.
