Hello angels,

Ready to travel with Balm Voyage Passport palette hahaha. The most attractive packaging i must say balm cosmetics has always been my favorite when it comes to packaging and product quality. I just cant live without Mary Lou Manizer its like a true highlighter to me. This is a holiday palette now they have come up with vol.2 but I am reviewing the vol.1 this palette has this postcard print cardboard packaging it has a flip cover which is so easy to open. They have placed oval shaped mirror inside and having a passport details which is really cute. It has 16 eye shadow and 3 cheek or lip stains. A super attractive palette with awesome eyeshades. For lip creams there is bottom cover which also flips. So while using eyeshadows you can keep lip palette close to protect them.

I just did indian festive look using this palette. A perfect green and gold eye shadow. This eye shadows have medium pigmentation. Which you can build it by layering. You can use them dry as well as with wet brush. I used this eyeshadows after priming my eyes so it stayed for almost 7 hrs. There was no flaking or smudging. It didn’t even fade. The colors look pretty pigmented when swatched on hand. This eyeshades are in powder form and they blend in beautifully. This palette doesn't have matte eyeshadows most of them have shimmer and some are satin finish.

The formula is not drying but I felt like wet brush gave me more intensity.

This palette has some amazing colors like purple, green, gold, black& browns so you can create as many looks as you want. It’s a very easy to use palette when you just want 1 or 2 eyeshadows to be used. This palette can be carried while on your holiday. This eyeshadows don’t have name but there are codes given like A1, A2, A3,A4 .. they do give fallouts while applying dry.. So try and do eye makeup first then you can clean all the fallouts. I felt few eyeshadows are less powdery and more soft and buttery in texture. But they are not as dense as i expected it to be.

They have 3 cheek or lip creams. They are quite pigmented. Colors are bold and can be matched with any of this eye shadows. I prefer using them as lip cream rather than cheek cream. It goes patchy and creamy on cheeks which I didn't like.

They have this really funny names first officer, second officer and captain.

Overall recommended I loved using this palette it has got some amazing shades with high color pay off. And it’s a great palette for even beginners. I liked the texture and formulas of this palette there was no major issue.

It has this beautiful peacock blue kind of color which just made me want this palette more and more. Lovely palette to use for holidays.
