Temptalia’s Christine, a makeup reviewing queen, gave The Manizer Sisters an A rating. She reflects on their quality, application, and finishes : “ The quality is the same as the full-sized versions I have: rich, smooth, and buttery textured combined with the great color payoff and luminous finishes.” According to dermatologists, ingredients such as vitamin C, retinol, and peptides may all boost your skin's anti-aging abilities, so those are a bonus to find in any cosmetic product. Additionally, a bronzer that contains ingredients that hydrate, such as hyaluronic acid or glycerin, will not only keep skin in better shape while you're wearing it, it'll help prevent your makeup from looking overly dry on your face.

Hoola is known for its ability to bronze and contour the skin without looking orangey or cakey. Now that you know a bit about the brand and its roots, this theBalm cosmetics review will go over the pros and cons. Pros

The Balm’s Bahama Mama bronzer is another great dupe for the Hoola bronzer. Although it’s slightly pricey for a dupe, it’ll still cost you less than the original Hoola bronzer. Marissa and the rest of theBalm team are passionate about creating high-performing products at an affordable price point. Today, theBalm’s richly pigmented, triple-milled products are available in pharmacies and beauty stores across the USA, as well as around the world. The texture of the Bahama Mama bronzer is fine and smooth. It is really easy to blend it into the skin. I’m using my Real techniques expert face brush these days for contouring and it works just fine with this product (because let me admit it, I do like to go a little overboard with my contouring, after all being a Kim K fan, can you really blame me? Haha) The balm bronzer stays on me for a really long time. I’d say it definitely lasts 6+ hours because that’s the longest I’ve worn it for. It doesn’t fade or smudge. It doesn’t make my skin oily either. Overall, I’m really enjoying using tha balm bronzing powder for contouring and I’m almost on the verge of being obsessed with it. I’d definitely call it my Holy Grail bronzer. Pros of TheBalm Cosmetics Bahama Mama Bronzer: On the other hand, some people may say the fact that they sell in mainland China contradicts this statement as they are still allowing their products to be tested on animals, despite not doing it themselves. So, the bronzer itself is Vegan friendly (although not explicitly stated anywhere), but the fact that it is not Cruelty-Free may be a problem for many vegans.

The colour difference between these two products is almost unnoticeable, the only slight change is that Rimmel’s product has a slight sheen to it. The formula itself isn’t too dissimilar, Rimmel’s bronzer is buildable and blendable, leaving you with a chiselled and sunkissed look. Not only is this product a lot cheaper, with this bronzer you get 14g of product, compared to 8g of Hoola. The formula itself is also waterproof, so you don’t have to worry about getting caught in the rain without an umbrella, or heading for a day at the beach. One thing to note is that similar to the original Hoola bronzer, this shade is not suitable for deep or darker skin tones. Pros: If you’re searching for an alternative to Benefit’s Hoola Lite bronzer, look no further. Physicians Formula Butter Bronzer in the shade Light is a great dupe! Physicians Formula is a brand that has been raved about by YouTubers and influencers for years, even before the Hoola Lite came out.
