TOO FACED CHOCOLATE BAR EYESHADOW PALETTE

14 Eyeshadows that smell like chocolate. Every eyeshadow name is chocolate related and the tin box palette looks like metal chocolate. If you don´t like scented makeup you will hate this, but if you love chocolate you are gonna love these beautiful shades.

The pigmentation is buttery, the colors are buildable, you can create neutral looks, smokey eyes, simple eye looks with pops of color, play with mattes, satins and shimmery eyeshadows. It has a decent mirror if you are planning to travel with it and the new and improved version is really slim, travel friendly.

Cons: it is a noisy palette and the names are displayed on a sheet something like the Sleek palettes, the difference is that this is a $50.oo dollars palette and nothing about it is suppose to be cheap looking.

The Swatches will be soft and heavy so that you can see how well pigmented they really are and what they will look like if you wish to pack them :

1. Gilded Ganache, Salted Caramel and Hazelnut.

2. White Chocolate, Marzipan, Creme Brûlée.

3. Semi-sweet, Haute Chocolate.

4. Milk Chocolate, Strawberry Bon Bon, Cherry cordial.

5. Black Forest Truffle, Candied Violet.

6. Triple fudge, Amaretto, Champagne truffle.

You can buy this palette at Ulta, Sephora and Amazon. Here are the links if you want to check it out for yourself.

SUMMER BEAUTY FAVORITES 2014

These few months the weather has been a warmer weather in New York, which means, not less makeup but more toned down makeup, bronzy nude eyeshadow looks with pops of colors, less foundation more tinted moisturizers, peachy pink blushes and waterproof mascara.... and bronzers always bronzers. 

1. NARS tinted moisturizer, I use the shade "ALASKA" when I'm fair and when I'm less fair "ST. MORITZ". 

This product is perfection, easy to blend, SPF 30, you can use your fingers to apply it and it does not leave matte nor oily, just that glow you want for a younger looking skin, the coverage is good for a tinted moisturizer light to medium, if you are extremely oily you can set it with powder and carry blotting sheets too for touch-ups on the go. 

2. NARS blushes in the colors : "Orgasm", "Love" from the Final Cut spring collection and "Madly" have been my favorites, the first one is a glow-y blush, if you don't like that shimmery finish try "Deep throat" but they both are peachy-pink, long lasting and look incredible in any skin tone, very pigmented. "Love" its a more pinky than peach, and madly is an all-year-round blush and its described as a warm soft-focus seashell pink.

3. BECCA Shimmering Skin Perfector in "Opal", everyone is raving about this highlighter because it is buttery, soft, glow-y and pigmented, they say its a dupe for "whisper of guilt" highlighter from MAC but I don't have that one. If you are into highlighters and if you're not you need this in your life. 

4. STILA in the light eyeshadow palette has been my go to, I always switch up my palettes but this one is the perfect one for the current trend. my favorite eyeshadows in there are "kitten", "bubbly" and "sunset". You can find this at the Sephora website but I bought mine almost half price on Amazon.

5. KEVYN AUCOIN The Celestial Bronzing Veil "Tropical nights", there's a reason these products  were named after the amazing makeup artist...They are amazing. Try it you won't regret it, great sheen, amazing quality and beautiful finish.

This is my top 5 products, used them a showed them a lot of love this summer. Let me know yours and if you have any requests for a product review. Comment down below, I will gladly do it.
