Let’s Talk Too Faced!

Let’s talk Too Faced! Oh course I am talking about the
makeup brand silly. Recently Too Faced launched their summer 2014 line, which I
picked up about 2 weeks ago. Due to the gorgeous packaging, I knew I had to
have these in my collection.

Within this collection, 2 unique palettes were released,
consisting of an eye shadow palette and the Bonjour Soleil palette. I will split this
into two posts, starting with the eye shadow palette called the à la mode eyes
Sexy St. Tropez collection. Later this week I will review the Bonjour Soleil palette. As you can see, the packaging alone is so cute and
consists of the same magnetic closure as the Too Faced Chocolate bar palette.

However, the layout of the palette is unique as well. It
consists of a Day, Classic, and Fashion eye look set. There are 3 rows that
create 3 different looks. I find that you can mix and match these to create many
stunning looks. Most of these shadows are highly pigment, creamy and blend easily. There
is also a How-to Glamour Guide that pops in the inside of the palette, in front
of the mirror, that lists 3 looks, 3 steps, in 3 minutes.

This palette is not one that I would recommend for a
beginner due to the lack of many shadows that a beginner would need to start
with. Thought this palette claims to contain shimmering, matte, and pearl
shades, I do not see any truly matte shades. I don’t believe this is a truly
“stand alone palette” due to not having any matte shades. Note that the first shade is barely visible, mainly I use this to lay top of other shadows to give them gold glitter. It truly is a gorgeous way to create even more looks.

However, if you are one that is looking to add to your
already existent collection or looking for a palette with cute packaging then
this may be the one for you. I will say as someone that has a rather large
collection of eye shadow this palette contains truly unique shades that can
make any beauty lover swoon. Overall, I highly recommend the à la mode eyes
palette and I love it. 

Have you tried this? Make sure you check back later this week for part 2 of this post which will contain the Bonjour Soleil  palette.
