There are certain brands out there that I consider to be my holy grail of make up. Literally almost everything from these brands seem to suit me perfectly. They're affordable (or at least worth the money/time/effort), work well, last long, and are incredibly pigmented whilst being versatile.
TheBalm is one of these brands.
I am a massive TheBalm fan, everything that I have from the brand has been an massive success. That being said, there are still plenty of things from TheBalm which I haven't tried yet.
UPDATE: I have just discovered that TheBalm official website now ships internationally! International shipping is a flat rate of $40AUD which is pricey considering the large wishlist I have! My suggestion is to wait for the next Cyber Monday sale since they're often at 40% off RRP. I've already gotten everything I really wanted from the brand, I'm now just shopping for the sake of it. ;)
Anyways, onto my review, presenting the good-looking Matte
($38.40 AUD):
 |
| A small purse-friendly palette. |
 |
| Inside. |
 |
| The eyeshadows have the most quirkiest names! Matt Ramirez is a good neutral toned brow powder. |
 |
| The Back. |
 |
| The applicator that comes with it, I never use these since I prefer full-sized brushes. |
The shadows are - obviously - all matte textures, highly pigmented, easily blendable and very versatile with a variety of different looks. It's perfect for if you want a matte contouring of the eyes or a matte base for highlighting of the brow bone. I haven't found one bad thing about this palette, I'm sold! It's reassuring to have a palette that's full of matte shades considering there are mainly shimmers in most palettes now.
I bought most of my TheBalm products from
Bath&Unwind.
