Founded in 2004 in San Francisco by Marissa Shipman—who famously bought makeup recipe books on Amazon to experiment in her kitchen—theBalm is a cosmetics brand built on a "beauty in five minutes" philosophy. The brand is instantly recognizable for its kitschy, 1950s pin-up girl packaging and clever, pun-heavy product names. Designed for quick, multi-use application, theBalm’s core lineup focuses on highly pigmented powder products, including the cult-favorite Mary-Lou Manizer highlighter and Bahama Mama bronzer, alongside long-wearing matte liquid lipsticks.
