TOO FACED Palette Collection!


Hey Everyone!

So today I want to walk you through my Too Faced Eyeshadow Palette collection. I don't own them all but the ones I do I really love! All Too Faced shadows are pigmented and easy to blend, some are more powdery then others but nothing that can't be worked with. I recommend any of the ones I talk about below and if you have any others that are must haves for you let me know in the comments, I'd love to try them out! 




Let's start with the Country palette which has become one of my most used. The colours in this palette work beautifully together to create so many beautiful and fun eye looks. You can do everything with this palette from a complete everyday natural look to a fun pop of colour using the blue and purple shades. I also love the names of the shadows in this Palette, the larger three shades are named after amazing female country singers most famous songs and then you have the classic country names like Dolly, Y'all and of course the Bluebird.


The details on the front of this palette are so cute, from the rope in heart shapes to the pink colouring. 


The inside showing all the shades.


Swatches Right to Left: Cowboy Take Me Away (Matte), 
Famous in a Small Town (Shimmer), and
All American Girl (Metallic)


Swatches Top to Bottom: Paper Roses (Shimmer), 
Dolly (Glitter Flecks), and Y'all (Metallic)


Swatches Top to Bottom: Bluebird (Glitter Flecks), 
Nashville (Metallic), and Rhinestone (Shimmer)


Next up we have the A La Mode palette, which was a summer launch and the colours inside are summer favourites of mine for sure! This palette has a stunning Pink and Copper eyeshadow shade that are two of my must have eyeshadows of all time.


As always Too Faced delivered on the packaging. I love the blend of pink and orange, 
with the pop of blue. So Pretty! 


As you can see right off the top the inside of this palette really pops. So many bright colours to work with and so many beautiful colours stand out! 


Swatches Top to Bottom: St. Tropez (Glitter Flecks), 
Riviera (Satin), and La Croisette (Metallic)


Swatches Top to Bottom: Jardin (Shimmer),
Soleil (Shimmer), and Cannes (Shimmer).


Swatches Top to Bottom: De La Mer (Matte), 
Monaco (Satin), and Cote d'Azur (Metallic).


Onto the Boudoir Eyes palette, which is the perfect palette for anyone who likes sexy and smokey eyes! This palette has some gorgeous natural shades but throws in a amazing Taupe, a matte Grey and a beautiful almost Black with gold shimmer colour! 



The packaging literally looks like a tufted head board and I have always wanted one of those. 
This palettes packaging for me is the classiest of all the ones I own!


As you can see the Taupe colour, Lap Dance, is by far my favourite in this palette and has a nice sized dent in it. Did I also say that the names on all these colours are beyond amazing. Garter Belt, Lap Dance, Fuzzy Handcuffs........


Swatches Top to Bottom: Birthday Suit (Satin), 
Satin Sheets (Metallic), and In The Buff (Matte).


Swatches Top to Bottom: Sugar Walls (Satin), 
 Voulez-Vous (Satin), and Fuzzy Handcuffs (which is a very hard to see peachy Matte).


Swatches Top to Bottom: French Tickler (Glitter), 
Lap Dance (Metallic), and Garter Belt (Matte).

Onto the Natural Eyes palette, which is the most everyday wearable palette for the average person. I find the colours in this one to almost all be in the Brown toned family, don't get me wrong some of my most beautiful looks using this palette. I love the Gold and the Rose Gold, hands down my two favourite eyeshadows of all time. 


This packaging always makes me think Romance, from the soft colours to the roses! 


I love the layout of this palette, it has 4 matte shades and 5 shimmer/satin shades 
and all of them work really well together. 


Swatches Top to Bottom: Nudie (Matte),
Silk Teddy (Satin) and Heaven (Matte).


Swatches Top to Bottom: Push Up (Satin),
Honey Pot (Satin) and Cashmere Bunny (Matte).


Swatches Top to Bottom: Sexspresso (Matte)
Chocolate Martini (Glitter) and Erotica (Satin).

The Romantic Eye palette is the only original packaging Too Faced palette I have. It's not the tin, it's made of cardboard but it's held up over a long time. This one also has the most unique colours in it. 




Like I said, interesting colour mix right? The green gold, the deep purple, 
the matte grey. Separate they don't look like much, but create a look with 
them and you feel different!


Swatches Top to Bottom: Bouquet Toss (Matte),
Kiss the Bride (Matte) and Soulmates (Glitter).


Swatches Top to Bottom: Honeymoon (Glitter),
Un-Veil (Matte) and I Do (Matte).


Swatches Top to Bottom: Ever After (Satin), 
Honeymoon (Satin), and First Dance (Matte).


As you can see I have almost all the Too Faced palettes and I even have a few more then this but got them after I posted this. If you would like me to do full reviews and swatches of the other ones feel free to let me know in the comments. 

Too Faced palettes are some of the best quality eyeshadows you can get. They lay out great colour combinations and make it easy for the beginner in makeup but also give so many colour choices that even us makeup pros can have a lot of fun with their palettes. 

Final thoughts if you don't own at least one of these, you need to!

September Glossy Box


Hey Everyone!

So I was so in LOVE with my September Glossy Box! It had 2 amazing full sized products and then 2 awesome sized samples and 1 smaller sized sample. I love how for the most part Glossy Box always seems to get a makeup product in our boxes, which to me is the reason I get beauty boxes so I appreciate that! 



The first product we got was a full sized Wella Mirror Polish Shine Serum. This product can be used before you style or after to help smooth and also give your hair a nice high-gloss finish. I've used this product a few times and I love the way it gives my hair a shine without making it feel oily and it has an amazing scent!


Next we got two B. Kamins products but neither of them were full sized and that is probably my only complaint about my box this month. It would have been great to get a trail size of the body lotion and a full size of the lip balm. As far as the products go the body lotion takes to long to soak into the skin for me. The lip balm is nice but it leaves my lips feeling oily so I've started using this at night before bed and I like it! I can go to sleep and wake up and my lips still feel like there is balm on them.



Dove Cleartone is my new go to pitstick, this stuff is amazing! It smells really good and I've been using mine for about 3 weeks and I notice a real difference with the color in my underarm areas. It's like an exfoliator for your armpits, it's AMAZING!


The last thing the we got this month was the NYX The Crimson Amulet which was a Limited Edition product. In all honesty they could have just sent me this and that would have been enough.


This collection comes with so much stuff it's mind blowing! It has 24 eye shadows and for the most part they are all very pigmented and easy to blend. In this collection there are a good mix of mattes and shimmers. With this one box you can do so many eye looks I don't think you'll ever get tired of it!



And if the eye shadows weren't enough there are 5 blushes, 1 highlighter and 4 lip colors, WOW. It also has a HD eye primer and an eyeliner. There are 2 matte blushes and 3 shimmery blushes and the highlighter isn't over the top which is nice. It's adds a nice shimmer without being glittery. 




All in all this was once again an AMAZING box! I type that so much I kind of get sick reading it but in all honesty Glossy Box always seems to blow my mind. Month after month they keep things fresh, provide great smaples, and it's always worth the price we pay for it.
