The Balm: Holiday In Balm Beach

Another one of those great Marshall's finds! I can't remember how much I snagged this for, but definitely not the full retail price of $21! Of course I grabbed one for Ms. B too! A little staycation adventure in make up.

Here's what is included

Shadow, blush, bronzer & lipgloss tucked into this cute "book" that has a mirror on one side.

Clever how they incorporated the names of the shadow, blush & bronzer in the text of the "book.

Swatches of the gloss and shadow. I love how vibrant the gloss is. The shadow, blush and bronzer are quite sheer which is great for summer looks.


I have seen these palettes, but never had the desire to pick one up mainly because of the price. I don't think I would purchase any other the Balm palettes because #1 the cost and #2 I don't see a lot of practicality in such a small amount of product. While it is cute and possibly handy to have in a travel make up bag, there is a bit of bulk with the packaging. If this palette is something you would be interested in, I found it on Nonpareil Boutique for $17. I have seen some mini series of these palettes that came out in a set at Costco last year. That's something I would look into purchasing for Christmas prezzies!
