I'm Hooked on Manly Pro's GLOWING FINISHING POWDER - A Budget-Friendly Alternative to the Expensive Gerlene Meteorites

summarizeEditor's Summary

I've been on the hunt for a budget-friendly alternative to the pricey Gerlene Meteorites, and I think I've found it in Manly Pro's Glowing Finishing Powder. This stuff gives a gorgeous, radiant glow that's perfect for everyday use. I've been using it nonstop since I got it, and I'm really impressed by its value for money. The packaging is super recognizable, and the price is right - 1557 rubles with a small discount, or 1700 rubles full price. You can find it at the Golden Apple, Wildberries, or the brand's official website. One thing that's stood out to me is how well it lasts - I've been using it for a week now, and it still looks great. It's not perfect, but it's definitely a solid choice for anyone looking for a budget-friendly glow.

Hello!

I've been obsessed with tonal products that give a glowing finish, and I've been using the Clarins Skin Illusion instead of Manly Pro's GLOWING FINISHING POWDER during the summer. However, I've been eyeing the Gerlene meteorites for ages, but they're just too pricey. I was also keen on trying the Dasique highlighter, but it's nowhere to be found online or in-store. So, while I was on holiday in Sochi, I popped into the Golden Apple and stumbled upon the star of this review - the Manly Pro GLOWING FINISHING POWDER.

Where to buy, price

You can find it at the Golden Apple, Wildberries, or the brand's official website. I picked it up for 1557 rubles with a small discount, and the full price is 1700 rubles, which I think is a great value for money.

Appearance

Manly Pro decorative cosmetics reviewThe packaging is super recognizable in its white-purple color scheme. The design is simple, yet elegant and organic. The powder comes in a cardboard sleeve, which is a bit unusual, but it gets the job done.On the back, you'll find some info from the manufacturer and the ingredients.

Ingredients:

Mica, Talk, Bron nitride, 12 Nylon-12, Trimethylsiloxysilicate/Dimethicone crosspolymer, Diisostearyl malate,

Lauryl laurate, Ethylhexyl palmitat, Methylparaben, Propylparaben, Tocopheryl acetat, Tatanium Dioxide (CI77891), Black Iron Oxide (CI77499), Yellow Iron Oxide (CI77492), Red Iron Oxide (CI77491).

Yeah, it's got talc, but that's not a big deal. I'm a bit embarrassed to admit that when I was younger, I used to rate products that claimed to be mineral-based but actually contained talc. But in this case, it's not a problem, as long as it's well-formulated and gentle on the skin.

Weight: 8.5g. That's a decent size, by the way. But it feels a bit light due to the cardboard packaging.

Shade: #Inner light.

The cardboard sleeve with the powder looks like this:

I've got to say, the silver stripes on this thing are pretty shiny. Inside, there's a mirror that's covered with a protective sticker. It's actually pretty decent - you can use it to touch up your makeup when you need to.

Swatch

When you apply it with your finger, it looks like the powder has a color to it. But when you use a brush, you just get this gorgeous glow - the 'inner light' name isn't just a marketing gimmick.

Worn in shadows:

Worn in sunlight:

If you zoom in, you'll see just how pretty the swatch looks in the sun.The texture is seriously soft, the shimmer isn't prickly at all, and you can barely even feel it. There's a light powder scent.

My makeup experience

I've got to say, I'm not one to complain about my skin - it's pretty even and still relatively young, so I'm not worried about the shine accentuating any flaws.

So, the makeup's on, and now it's just a matter of adding the final touch - the powder.

Let me tell you, the effect is stunning!

The powder has a soft, diffused glow that instantly gives your skin a natural finish. It's perfect for everyday wear, and the subtle shimmer helps to blur out any imperfections. Before:

After:

I'm a big fan of cold-toned makeup, and I've tried pairing it with this powder before. However, I think it looks better with a gold finish. Maybe I'm just not used to the Chupa Chups shade I was hoping for - now I'm not sure what to do with it. As a finishing powder:

It's decent as a highlighter, but I prefer ones with a more dramatic, 'out-of-this-world' effect. If you prefer a more subtle texture, you'll love this one.

But what I really love about this powder is how well it lasts throughout the day - no cakey or heavy finish in sight! It's easy to remove with a micellar water or a hydrating product, and it doesn't clog my pores (although, let's be real, a good skincare routine can prevent that). I still haven't found the perfect shade of Dasique's cold-toned powder, but Manly Pro GLOWING FINISHING POWDER has won me over! I didn't expect to love it as much as I do. I'm giving it a solid 5 stars and highly recommend it!

Wishing you all beauty and happiness!

The Manly Pro 103 is, in a word, ideal.

The Manly Pro K14 is a masterfully designed brush that truly excels at every angle.

The Manly Pro K30, as always, stands tall.
