The balm


Recently i have been absolutely loving 'The Balm' makeup range.. (as is everyone else on the planet)

They remind me of benefit the Kitch packaging, the vintage feel and super funny names of the products>

My two most favourites from their range are the brand new 'nude dude' palette which i was luckily able to get my hands on it! thankyou covet cosmetics  ! and the 'instain' blush in 'Argyle' which is a really pretty peachy/petal shade.

The Nude dude palette is a fab palette for everyday use, i have actually stopped using my Urban Decay make palettes as i have been loving these shades so so much..
It has 12 shades mostly shimmers with 3 mattes, a eyeshadow brush comes with it, its double ended with a angle brush at one end which is super handy for sing the darker shades as liners.. which i have been doing lots!
the packeting is sleek and thin, yet it has a massive mirror, which is always a bonus..

There is a great range of light, medium and darker shades, but instead of plain white/black shades there is 'fearless' which is a pale gold with iridescent under tones.. which is simply beautiful.. and can easily be used as a highlight and 'fierce' is a black with both gold and silver shimmer added to it which is subtle yet adds a little extra glam..

My favourite look i have been wearing includes, 'fearless' all over, using a fluffy brush and then 'fit' all over the lid.. then just add firm in the crease to add dimension ..

Something else that i have noticed is that the instain blush in Argyle  is incredibly similar to NARS orgasm which is a cult blusher so a good dupe for that product. It is the most beautiful shade of blusher,  its a super wearable peachy/pink shade that you can wear everyday!

Have you tried any The Balm products? What are you favourites?

Until next time.... Lauren Bea
