Too Faced - A Few of My Favorite Things Palette



Too Faced has come out with three palettes for the Holiday season. The first of the palettes, and the priciest, is the A Few of My Favorite Things palette. Currently at Sephora it’s selling for $56 (an original $436 value). I think this is a great palette for any individual; there is a variety of products and I think it’ll be a good gift for someone who just wants an all in one palette. 

This palette includes 20 eyeshadows, 2 blushes, 2 bronzers, 1 Lip Injection Color Bomb, 1 mascara, a chevron clutch, and a how-to guide. Talk about a great value!

The 20 e/s colors are: 

- Snowflakes: shimmery beige
- Whiskers on Kittens: shimmery salmon
- Chocolate Milk: matte medium-dark brown
- Cream Colored Ponies: matte light tan
- Honey Honey: Shimmery gold
- Buche de Noel: Dark shimmery brown
- Coquet: Light pearlescent pink (slight orange undertone)
- Taffy: Matte medium pink
- Crisp Apple Strudel: Pearlescent medium brown

- Moon on Their Wings: Shimmery medium beige
- Dark Chocolate: Dark Matte Brown (this is one of the darkest browns I’ve ever seen!)
- Evergreen: Pearlescent forest green
- Blue Satin Sashes: Matte navy with silvery/golden specs
- Woolen Mittens: Matte brown (lighter than Chocolate Milk, but darker than Cream Colored Ponies)
- Soiree: Deep burgundy with golden specs
- Tinsel: Pearlescent taupe beige
- Bluff: Muted purple with slight shimmer
- Ooh la Orchid: Matte orchid (purple) 

- Party Time: Shimmery/glittery dark teal
- Pure Glam: Black/purple with a lot of silver/golden shimmer/glitter

2 Blushes:

- Raindrops on Roses: Rosey pink with golden shimmer
- Melt into Spring: Matte salmon/orange
2 Bronzers: 
- Chocolate Soleil: Matte brown (typical bronzer)
- Sun Bunny: Shimmery bronzer with 2 different shades - the darker of the shades isn’t as dark as Chocolate Sleil, but it’ll give a nice shimmer to a matte bronzer. The lighter of the shades can be a great highlighter if you’re on the tanner side, but can be versatile. 



1 Lip Color:
Lip Injection Color Bomb in Bee Sting: Rose pink 

1 Better Than Sex Mascara 

There’s a lot of great value in this set and I would definitely consider picking this up. The thing about Too Faced is that they don’t sell e/s individually. Their e/s are great quality, but a lot of the glittery ones tend to have a lot of fallout from the glitter/shimmer. If you want them to stick you’d need to use a tacky base, the usual base like Too Faced E/S Insurance and UD’s Primer Potion isn’t tacky enough to hang on to the glitter. 

The Chocolate Soleil is one of their best selling bronzers and is a great product. Their blushes are also pretty pigmented as well. 


If you want a palette that has a lot of bang for the buck, definitely consider picking up this palette.
