Lush’s Charisma and Feeling Younger Skin Tints, priced at $18.95 each, are a game-changer for anyone looking to enhance their makeup routine without the hassle. Personally, I tend to keep my makeup simple—just a tinted moisturizer with SPF, some eyeliner, eyeshadow, mascara, and maybe a bit of ChapStick. Contouring, bronzing, and highlighting have always felt a bit overwhelming to me.
That’s why I decided to give Lush’s Feeling Younger Tint/Primer (a highlighter) and Charisma Tint/Primer (a bronzer) a try after hearing so many great things about them. And honestly? They lived up to the hype. Not only are they incredibly easy to apply, but they also blend beautifully into the skin.
### Application
These tints are so lightweight and blendable that you don’t even need a brush or sponge to apply them. Unlike some bronzers and highlighters that just sit on the skin, these melt in seamlessly, giving a natural, radiant finish without feeling heavy or cakey.
### Price
At under $20 each, they’re a great deal. Each tub contains 0.7 oz. of product, which lasts for months, making them a worthwhile investment.
### Packaging
Lush keeps things simple with its packaging. While you might eventually need a brush or sponge to scoop out the last bit of product, the tub design ensures you can use every drop—much better than dealing with a tricky pump or tube.
### How to Use
You can apply these tints all over your face before foundation or tinted moisturizer, depending on the look you’re going for. The Feeling Younger highlighter gives a fresh, dewy glow, making your skin look radiant—like you just got back from a luxurious vacation. The Charisma bronzer adds a warm, sun-kissed glow with just a hint of shimmer, perfect for both day and night without looking overly glittery.
If you prefer a more sculpted look, you can use them for contouring. A simple rule: apply highlighter to areas that naturally catch the light, like cheekbones, collarbones, the center of your forehead, down the nose, and under the brow bone. Use the bronzer to add depth by applying it along the sides of your nose, around the hairline, and just under the cheekbones.
Overall, these tints are a fantastic addition to any makeup routine, whether you’re a beginner or a pro. They’re easy to use, affordable, and deliver a beautiful, natural finish.
