I gotta say, Jerrod Blandino Too Faced founder has outdone himself with the Summer Eye Palette! I am head over heels in love with this collection. The textures of the shadows are buttery, soft, and just plain wonderful. Fallout is not an issue. The colors are shimmery to complement bronzed skin, and just plain gorgeous, well thought out and executed. My hands down favorite is the Day look out of all three tutorial cards. Beautiful golds, gorgeous browns, summer appropriate coral and an aqua/teal. This palette is a must. Apparently I'm not the only one smitten with this collection as these babies are flying off the shelves. Valued at $121.00 this baby is priced at $36.00 As described on Too Faced's website this is a limited edition, tropical-inspired eye shadow palette which captures the fun colors of long summer days and sultry summer nights and they couldn't be more right. If you can only afford one collection for this summer this would be it. Grab it while you can! Xoxo

Too Faced Romantic Eye Palette
As you may have read in my last blog post, I wasn't too impressed with the Naked Eye Palette. Well, Too Faced has redeemed themselves with the Romantic Eye Palette. The colors are more pigmented and the looks created by the 3 instructional card are quite lovely. With wedding season approaching, this palette is something every bride should get their hands on. All three looks are very pretty. The shadows themselves are buttery and of good quality. I would have to say the Classic look is my favorite. All 3 looks are soft and feminine. This palette is definitely a winner. I'll keep this short and sweet and let the pictures do the talking. Xoxo

Too Faced Naked Eye Palette
I've been a fan of Too Faced since I was in my late teens. It seems that Too Faced as of late has become the authority of eyeshadow palettes. If I'm correct there are 8 in all. For the past year I have been revisiting the makeup brands of my youth.....Urban Decay, Stila, Too Faced, etc. Since hearing much hype about these adorable little palettes, I decided to purchase a few. The Naked Eye palette which I will be reviewing right now, the Romantic eye palette, and the newly released Summer eye palette. I have to say I'm really on the fence over the Naked Eye palette. Don't get me wrong, this would be a great palette for makeup newbies, or if you're going to wear a bright lip color because the colors are really subdued and really not pigmented enough. It's a great concept however the 3 cards with the suggested looks just emphasizes how bland the colors can be. The upside is the texture is nice and there is very minimal fallout. The three instructional/suggested look cards that come with the palette to create certain looks are one for day, one for classic, and one for fashion. When Too Faced named this palette naked they weren't kidding. Some of the colors just disappear upon application. I demonstrated all 3 suggested looks which I enclosed pictures of. I just wish the colors were more pigmented. Perhaps then I would like it better but I'll let you be the judge from the pictures I've taken. The first two pictures are the day look, the second set is the classic, and the last two the fashion look. The upside is if you disregard the cards and play around and create your own looks the palette isn't all too bad. Enjoy darlings! Xoxo

The day look was so bland I intensified the crease |
