REVIEW: NUDE'tude "Nice" Palette from the Balm

Summer is one of my favorite times of the year to have fun with color!  Livening things up with the colors of the clothes I wear, bright colors in the shoes and accessories I adorn myself with, I even switch things up with my hair color!  But when it comes to makeup, lord knows I still need it, and want to wear it, but that is where I tend to hold back on color, or at the appearance of color.  I personally prefer a more natural look on myself when it comes to summer time makeup.  I work hard, play hard, and in the heat of the day, I don't want my makeup to melt off of me in a watercolor mess, hahaaa!  So it is with such excitement that I share with you an ideal eye shadow palette that was created so you can still have fun with color, but in perfectly formulated shades that will enhance your eyes, but maintain that youthful, natural look that will keep you looking your best all Spring and Summer long!  The  NUDE'tude "Nice" Palette from the Balm Cosmetics.  Here is my review:

REVIEW

I received from Birchbox the fabulous "Nice" Eyeshadow Palette called NUDE'tude created by the Balm.  It was one of the products Birchbox and US Weekly recommended during their Red Carpet Look promotion.  The colors in this eyeshadow palette are definitely award winning!  I am enjoying experimenting with them all.  Here the details about this splendid palette:

NUDE ‘tude® Nude Eyeshadow Palette

Price:  $36

You can choose from either the "Naughty" or "Nice" Palette, both contain the same exact colors, just the graphics are different!

DESCRIPTION:

This amazing palette consists of 12 beautiful shadows that make wearing nudes sexy! These satiny smooth colors can be applied naturally, i.e. “let me slip into something more comfortable” or beautifully layered. The wide range gives you light highlighters as well as brazen bold shades that work to add definition and emphasis to your lids. Nude`tude allows you to dramatically dress up your eyes—if nothing else!

MY THOUGHTS:

Aren't these colors divine?!  Aside from the absolutely darling packaging, that makes me smile every time I open it, the eye shadows are all equally impressive.  They are very pigmented so you only need a teeny tiny amount of shadow to add the color to your eye lids.  I love that there is a wide range of colors, from the whitest white to the darkest of brown.  This gives you lots and lots of endless options for mixing, blending and creating your own unique shades of color to enhance your most precious feature, your eyes!

By day I have been using only the lighter shades, and adding the darker shades to my eyes for a more dramatic look when I go out at night.  I also have been using the "Serious" dark brown shade to line my eyes, the color is perfect for lining!

The shimmery "Seductive", "Silly" and "Selfish" shades are what I am going to enjoy wearing the most when I get just that slight touch of sun glow tan this summer, those colors are my favorite.

I love using the "Sassy" white shade to dab in the corners of my eyes to brighten up my eyes and make the whites of my eyes appear whiter.  It works!

The "Snobby", "Stand-offish" and "Stubborn" shades are what I have been wearing everyday to work.  The colors are soft and subtle and oh so pretty!  

So whatever your mood is, or whatever plans you have on your agenda for the day or night, this eye shadow palette is going to help you achieve a stunning look for your eyes.  You will grow to adore the palette as much as I have once you try out all these delightful shades!
