theBalm Meet Matte Trimony Eye Shadow Palette

i received a sample of one of these colors (the purple) through ipsy, geez, probably at least seven years ago, perhaps eight. i only know it was that long ago because i fell so in love with that tiny sample that i immediately tried to find the full palette, and when i failed, a friend found it for me - however, our friendship ended in summer 2017, so that's how i know how freaking old it is. i wouldn't be surprised if she sent it to me in 2016. it was a rough year for me and she was very kind throughout that period of time, so it would make sense that was the year she found it and purchased it for me. anyway, it quickly became the only palette i used, with maybe only two colors i didn't often wear. i love the matte finish, i love the colors, and i love that i can apply it at 7a and it still looks good ten hours later. so i've eked that palette along all this time - not using it much at all during covid, for probably obvious reasons - but now that i'm leaving the house again, i've been reluctant to go back to it because i know it cannot possibly be good for my eyes. i've tried so many other colors and brands in the interim - most of which are massive disappointments - while looking longingly at that old dusty matt trimony. finally, the other day when cleaning out my makeup, i made the decision to FINALLY throw it out, but thought 'what the hell' and did a google, figuring this palette was LONG gone. but no! ordered it immediately and finally tossed the one from the last decade. you better believe i've been using it daily since, even though i can't really get away with these colors anymore. :) so anyway, yay!

I use this pallete almost daily. The lightest shade is almost a perfect skin tone match, making it perfect for covering dark circles under eyes and brightening up the corners. The black, when used with a liner brush and smudged into the lash line is perfect for us gals with hooded eyes that get overwhelmed by using eyeliner on the upper lid. It gives a much more subtle look. I will continue to buy this specific pallete as long as they keep producing it!

I bought this after trying the red shade from an Ipsy bag.. and so GLAD I did! These shadows are highly pigmented, and blend amazingly Well! Beautiful shades... I use them all. I will definitely purchase this again!

I looooove this eyeshadow. Package came in perfect condition, really quickly after ordering. It's my favorite matte eyeshadow, and I recommend it to everyone.

OMG! I'm new to mattes and did a lot of searching before deciding on this pallette. Best decision ever. The colors are creamy and rich. So easy to blend and cater to my sensitive eyes. This is a must have!

The colors in this palette are beautiful. My only concern is that the colors are very powdery and don't seem as highly pigmented to me as other reviewers have stated. It took several coats and blending to get the color I wanted, and it still wasn't very noticeable. I'm going to try them with a better primer to see if that makes a difference.

Love this palette! The perfect neutrals to go with anything and the pans are so big you'll never have to worry about it

This is my first matte palette and it did not disappoint! I was worried some of the colors would be way too dark, but once applied they are beautiful.

A paleta é boa, o que esperava, só não esperava que viesse com vencimento para janeiro de 2021

this is really good highly pigmented and easy to use very creamy or whatever

I have only used glitter eye shadows until I got this palette. The red/purple colors are what I really wanted and they are great. Easy to apply, you can build color easily and all the colors work together. I do get creasing like any other eye shadow for me but if you use a primer under you don't crease at all.

Colori pigmentati, il makeup dura nel tempo. The Balm è una garanzia

By far the best makeup palette i have ever used. it lasts very long time on the eyes. You can do a variety of outlooks with these colors. I strongly recommend.
