Not only does The Balm have amazing packaging that’s a throwback to the days of squeaky clean beach fun but their products are excellent quality. I have to admit I was drawn to the colorful and creative packaging of this all-in-one-palette, but I was pleasantly surprised when I realized how amazing the makeup really is.

Let’s all welcome 2016 and hope it brings us nothing but health, happiness, and innovative makeup products!
