What it is:A collection of 100% pure mineral
pigments in loose powder format and wearable colors.What
it is formulated to do: Overshadow was created to add a
luxe look to the lid, taking the most subtle daytime
shadow and amping it up for nighttime fun. Apply over
your favorite shadow to give a fresh look to your staple
shadows colors. Dust the lighter shades on shoulders,
cheeks - anywhere - for a sexy shimmer.What it is
formulated WITHOUT:- Parabens- Sulfates- Synthetic
Fragrances- Synthetic Dyes- Petro-Chemicals-
PhthalatesWhat else you need to know:They are free of
talc, preservatives, oil, and fragrance. Layering has
always been a fashion "do", and now, the trend
finds its way into cosmetics, allowing beauty junkies to
give new life to the old favorites already in their
makeup bag.
So this was apparently intended to be a shadow to put OVER other shadows. Well, I use No Money, No Honey by itself on a daily basis. It is my go-to eyeshadow. It's soft, pretty, and goes on smooth. And unlike most shimmery loose shadows, it doesn't migrate. You won't end up with a face full of shimmer or shadow all over your clothes. It's very high-pigment and lasts all day without primer (aside from the tiniest dab of foundation). After an 8 hour workday, it's still there.
I love TheBalm, but I find that their shadows tend to be a little too dramatic for day-to-day wear. However, these eyeshadows are great way to add a little bit of sparkly glam to your daytime look. I can't recommend No Money, No Honey enough!
this shadow is very pretty, SHIMMERY. the packaging is so adorable. I got no money no honey and it's a pretty light gold. great for adding a little or a lot of shimmer to you look. very high quality and blendable.

I use this as a highlighter in the corner of my eyes. It goes with virtually any color, wears well, and has a beautiful effect. For this use, the one pot has lasted me a long time.

No Money, No Honey is wonderful- 12.16.09
Quick Take: blends easily
This is a wonderful product. I was not familar with the idea of an overshadow, but it looks wonderful over my regular look. You can definitely add more or less to suit your look. I really like it for work with soft/neutral tones, since it spices it up. I haven't used for an evening look, but I can only imagine how great this stuff will be.
No Money, No Honey is the best color--light enough to work with anything and very flattering.
I LOVE this stuff. I wear it alone during the day, or over a taupe shade for night. I've gotten tons of compliments from complete strangers about it. Its a beautiful multi dimensional gold color - natural, yet eye catching. Lasts forever, since you only need a little amount. Will repurchase again and again!

extra oomph- 12.08.09
Quick Take: highly pigmented, blends easily
Overshadow does what it says it does: it amps up your existing shadow with a a beautiful shimmer. It's glamorous, natural, and you get a good amount of product for the price relative to competitors. I got work is overrated and I used it over warm shadows for an icy effect. It's gorgeous - even thought it's on the cool side and I have olive skin.
I have been using 'no honey no money'. It is a beautiful shade and goes on better than any other loose shimmer powder I have ever used. It doesn't fall onto my cheeks and is a wonderful compliment to day or night looks. LOVE IT!

Love it !- 11.28.09
Quick Take: highly pigmented
Goes on wonderful, can be used over lots of different colours. Gives a great look when used in the inside corner of the eye !
This overshadow is fantastic. It is just the right sparkle without being glittery. It's great for day, or if you apply it a little heavier, a wow for evening.
I use this stuff on the edges of my eyelids over my copper eyeshadow (the color I got was "No Money, No Honey"), and my eyes just get kicked up about five notches in intensity with their blueness. I just dip a little smudge brush into the pigment and swipe the tiniest bit onto the brush, since so much goes a long way, and it works wonders on my eyes. Will get it again, and in more colors, too!

Love!- 11.11.09

No Money, No Honey is gorgeous! This shadow will go with anything and would be great to blend with other colors. I love the shimmer and the color is just golden enough without being too yellow, and on the flip side it isn't too white.

Another excellent product from TheBalm! I purchased "You Buy, I'll Fly" and the copper sparkle adds a nice little pop and makes my eyes really stand out. The amount you get in the pot really goes a long way, too!

Great Highlight- 10.18.09
Quick Take: blends easily
This is a great highlight that can be used in the inside corner of your eye, under your eyebrow, and on your cheek bones. It gives you a glow that just can't be beat!
I bought this eyeshadow after I ran out of another beige/nude colored shadow I had before. Remembering how beautiful the colors of The Balm's mineral eyeshadow's were, I decided to check it out. After seeing the full-pigmented, shimmering color, I was hooked! I wear this glamorous shadow almost everyday for a sexy, glamorous look!
