the Balm Nude 'tude Eyeshadow Palette

20:15







I've never tried anything from the Balm before, although I always read such good reviews about their most popular products, one of which being this eyeshadow palette that I had to cave in and buy it eventually. You may have seen this on my blog before because I featured it in my ASOS Haul when I had a 25% off discount code for students, so I thought why not treat myself after a long, hard year of being a student. *cough*
As the name suggests, this palette contains 12 utterly gorgeous nude shades, 4 matte and 8 shimmer shades. There's not one bad shade in this palette, I've used every single shade now and they are all just as highly pigmented and blendable as the next one. The quality and colour payoff of these eyeshadows are insane, so a little goes a long way as too much can cause some fallout, especially with the shimmer shades.
I've just been loving using this palette along with my Urban Decay Naked 3 Palette every day since I got it. Some of the shades in this palette are actually so similar to some of the shades in the Naked 3 palette and I'm really enjoying using the two palettes together. It also reminds me of the Too Faced Natural Eyes palette, which is next on my hit-list as I've been wanting it for ages now.
My personal favourites from this palette are 'Stand-offish', 'Selfish' and 'Seductive'. I also think that 'Sassy' is great for an inner corner and brow-bone highlight.
The packaging is among some of my favourites as well, funny without being crude. At £26.50, it's also fairly cheaper than the Urban Decay or Too Faced palettes and I get the most use out of this palette more than any others I own. I just can't wait to try out more from the Balm now!

 What do you think of the Balm? Have you tried any of their products? Let me know in the comments!
