If you want something done right, you have to do it yourself. That thought led theBalm's founder, Marissa Shipman, to buy 11 books on how to make makeup. She wanted products that not only made her look fabulous but also were fabulous for her. theBalm has come a long way since its birth in Marissa's kitchen, but the original commitment to excellence is still there.

TheBalm's packaging is clear because they believe that makeup should be about the quality of the ingredients and not what it comes in. All of the products feature beeswax, making them distinctly smooth and uniquely theBalm — simple, fun and good for a glamourous you!
