theBalm How 'bout Them Apples? in Pie

They sell the palette of lip stain/blush with the colors pictured on the packaging. But as a sample piece, they only give you one color to try. When Bellabox showed us what we would be getting months ago, I was extremely excited as I though for sure they will be giving us the whole mini sized palette. As like the Meet Matt palette comes in the original size and the half size one. But come on, it was wishful thinking. There is just no way that they will ever give us good sample, so, oh well.

Thankfully I like the mini samples from theBalm. The packaging is cute. As for the product, I really do like it. (But I really wish I could have tried all the shades, hah!) I like it more as a blush than as a lip stain. I find that it doesn't stain my lips as much as I thought it would. Maybe it is just the color Pie that is not that strong.
So overall it is a good product and I really do want a full size. But we just have to see.

I got this in my birchbox a few months ago and expected the same thing! I like it as a cheek stain but I find that it doesn't actually last that long so have to reapply

Yes, thankfully the packaging is small and cute, so it is easy to bring anywhere for touch up. Still a bump though that it doesn't last.

Givenchy Le Rose Perfecto Lip Balm

This is in the shade 201, creamy and a hint of light milky pink. I like that it is pretty, but the shade doesn't really suit me. What I like best is that they can engrave your name on the packaging. So it is pretty.

Beauty Uk Baked Blush

A red blush looks really intimidating on the box but I picked this up cause I want something different for my collection. It's just a cardboard box kind of packaging, secured with magnet, so it's really simple. It's quite big and like all baked product, it's dome in shape. So it's actually quite bulky. I wouldn't bring it for travel that's for sure. The color payoff is good, but instead of red it's more pink. You can use it sparingly and it will be lighter or you can pack on the color which will gives you a really bright pink. In fact, if lightly dust over your cheek it is more coral than pink. It has tiny specks of shimmer, but it doesn't show. I can't remember how much I bought this for but it wasn't expensive. It's not my favorite blush, but I find myself reaching for it a lot. So that's something isn't?
