Too Faced: Chocolate Bar Eye Shadow Collection


I know Sephora Singapore will be having lots of newly launched products coming in soon and my intentions going was obviously to get some of of them. But oh boy I was in for a big surprise and was extremely happy and excited when I saw the Too Faced: Chocolate Bar Palette, I knew i got to have it.

In Singapore you will not know which new products will be coming in and usually in Asia we have very limited range of products that is in each and every brands here. I estimate less then 10/20 percent of different range per brand, sometimes it is completely not available here or the brand is not available at all. Due to the exposure of the internet, blogs, vloggers from U Tube things are getting better and a lot of brands are coming in to Singapore and we have better selections now.

Anyway lets get back to Too Faced. They have been coming out with a lot of great palettes recently, I got their limited edition christmas holiday palette A Few Of My Favorite Things 2013 and I was very impressed and love the quality of that palette and have always love and used mostly neutral palettes.

Look at that cute packaging! A sturdy tin that looks like a huge bar of chocolate bar (it smells and is made with cocoa powder) that comes with a magnetic closure and a full sized mirror. Too Faced also includes get the look cards with step by step instructions to create a few different looks using the palette. 





Too Faced: Chocolate Bar Eye Shadow Collection (SGD $69) contains 16 eyeshadows from matte to frost. The smaller eyeshadows are 0.95g/ 0.03 oz each, while the 2 larger ones are 2.8g/ 0.10 oz each . But the quality of the shadows varies from shades to shades with some being pigmented and soft, buttery and then a few missies that are powdery, sheer, chalky or combination of the three as you will be able to tell from the swatches below. Overall the palette is more of a darker, smokier neutrals with a pale pink and a deep purple.

The Too Faced Chocolate Bar Eye Shadow Palette is a treat for both makeup lovers and makeup collectors. The great selection of shades which most people will be likely to use daily and goes well together without taking too much effort to work with. You may want to head down to the nearest Sephora to get yours now or do you have other palettes in mind?
