I have been a big fan of The Balm since I first fell inlove with their Mary Lou Manizer. Since then, I tried a good few other bits from the brand. I have yet to find something from the brand that disappoints me as most of the things that I tried are just awesome. Whilst I was rearranging my beauty stash last weekend, I had a few good minutes of The Balm appreciation time. Since I was already mooning about the brand, here I am giving you a piece of my mind of what I think are the top three The Balm palettes.
Nude Tude Eyeshadow Palette- The Nude Palette is definitely one of my favourite nude eyeshadow palette. It has a good mixture of nude shades that has pinks, beige, mauve, browns, and black. Because of the mixture of the eyeshadow shades, you can easily make daytime looks and more dramatic looks from the palette making it very versatile. You can even go on holiday and just bring this eyeshadow palette with you and you can still create endless eyeshadow looks. It has eight shimmery eyeshadows and four matte ones. The eyeshadows in the palette are very soft and buttery. All eyeshadows except one which is Silly has no issues of fallouts. The eyeshadows has brilliant colour payoffs and blends really well.
How 'Bout Them Apples Cheek and Lip Cream Palette- If you are looking to try cream blushers or you are just a big fan of cream blushers, definitely get this palette. This has six cream blushes in different shades to choose from. It also has the biggest there is that you whole face will fit which I think is real amazing. Even though that it's claim to be a cheek and lip cream, I prefer to use it as a blush as it performs better. All blushes has really good payoffs and blends easily to the skin. The blushes can be easily built up as well and lasts for more than six hours. All blushes has dewy finish.
Balmsai Eyeshadow and Brow Palette- More than anything else, I love this palette because of its versatility. It has 18 eyeshadows in the palette with different finishes. Four of the eyeshadows are suitable to be used for the eyebrows. The eyeshadows have different qualities to it and the palette itself has a divided opinion. The main reason that I like about the palette is that eyeshadows are more in the muted side. None of the eyeshadows are really bold or bright which makes the palette more of a daily palette and that is why I love it. It is my go to daily palette as it never fails me down. With 18 shades to choose from, I can rely that I can make myself presentable even when I feel the laziest.
Have you tried any of these palettes?

DeleteI love the look of that The Balm palette, the perfect selection of shades in there! I'm looking for a new eye shadow palette, I'm stuck between this or maybe a Zoeva one!

To be honest, I can't choose between Zoeva or The Balm. I would get both if I were you Jas. Xx
DeleteI have the Balmsai palette and I really like it but I'm not blown away with the quality of the eyeshadows. But you can't argue that The Balm packaging is so much fun :) x

Between the Balmsai and Nude Tude, I would definitely go for the Nude Tude when it comes to eyeshadow quality. Xx
DeleteI've only been introduced to theBalm with their LouManizer highlight which I am just loving so I am definitely open to trying more from the brand. Loved reading all about your top palette recommendations from them & I can definitely see myself loving the Nude Tude palette x

DeleteThe second one reviewed, 'How 'Bout Them Apples Cheek and Lip Cream Palette' looks really gorgeous - both the packaging and product! I haven't tried a cream blusher in a very long time and like the idea of returning to one :)
