EOTN: Too Faced Chocolate Bar

About a month ago I got my hands on the Too Faced Chocolate Bar since I had a 20% off coupon. Knowing how expensive they are, I did my research to find a good palette I wouldn't regret. Even though I had a coupon, it would still be expensive compared to what I'm used to paying, so I really took my time reading through every bit I could find on it. The Chocolate Bar had soo many great reviews, I knew this was it. This was going to be my first Too Faced purchase! So I was really excited to see that it was still in stock.  


I've played around with this a few times, but so far I came up with one look I really liked. Over the weekend my boyfriend, daughter, and I went to UNO's in Providence, so I wanted something nice and classic, but a bit sultry at the same time. 



This really is such a gorgeous palette, I wish this phone took as good of pictures as my old one (I'm sorry you guys :( ). I promise these colors are so much prettier in person, this picture does them no justice. But they smell amazing! These shadows are made with 100% cocoa, and they seriously smell of just that!



And this is the look I came up! 



How I got this look:

I used E.l.f smudge pot in Back to Basics as my base.

Top Row:
 I used the 1st Star (White Chocolate) all over my lid up to my brow bone, and in the corners of my eyes and the inner part of my lower lash line.

Middle Row:
 I used the 1st Star (Salted Caramel) in my crease.
I used the 2nd Star (Marzipan) all over my lid.
I used the 3rd Star (Amaretto) on my upper lash line (to complete the look once the rest of the eye was done).

Bottom Row:
 I used the 1st Star (Hazelnut) and blended it out in my crease and up and the outer part of my lower lash line.
I used the 2nd Star (Creme Brulee) and tapped it lightly on my lid over Marzipan.

For my lashes I had used my L'Oreal Voluminous Million Lashes Excess. 

So that's it for today's post, I hope you all enjoyed and thank you for reading!(:

Have you tried the Chocolate Bar yet?
If so, tell me how you liked it,
I would love to know!

FOTN: Featuring Maybelline's The NUDES Palette

So I was going to wait till tomorrow to try out the new Maybelline palette, but I was too anxious I couldn't wait. 



First, let me apologize for the horrible quality of these pictures. Unfortunately, my phone finally had enough, and was forced to buy a cheap one until I can afford the one I really want. (No, I do not own a camera).

But anywho, this is the look I came up. And I have to say, I was really happy with this palette. Now I can't wait to find Maybelline's other new palettes, The SMOKES and The BRIGHTS. Have any of you seen or tried them yet?!


This is everything I used to create this look.

For the face:


 Rimmel's Stay Matte Primer.
L'Oreal Paris True Match Lumi Healthy Luminous Healthy Makeup.
 L'Oreal True Match Super-blendable Concealer.
(to conceal and highlight).
 Covergirl Tru Blend Pressed Powder in Translucent Honey
(to contour).
 Maybelline Fit Me Blush in Light Nude.

For the lips:


 Nyx Butter gloss in Creme Brulee.
Revlon Super Lustrous Lipstick in Violet Frenzy.

First I coated my lips with Revlon's Violet Frenzy. I let it sit fot a few minutes before wiping it off to leave a stain behind. Then I topped it off with the Creme Brulee Butter gloss.

For the eyes:


Rimmel Scandaleyes Retro Glam Mascara.
E.l.f Eyelid Primer in Pearl.
E.l.f Eyebrow kit.
Curling wand.
 Maybelline's The NUDES Palette.


Even though the Maybelline's NUDE Palette comes with pre-set looks with directions on the back on the packaging, I decided to be creative and do my own look. Well, this is what I came up with! 



Top Row:

⚫ The 1st X I used all over my lid, up to the brow bone as the transition color.
The 2nd X I used all over my lid.
The 3rd X I used in my crease and blended it out.

Bottom Row:

The 1st X I used in the inner corners of my eyes.
The 2nd X I used in my outer crease and blended it out. I also used this to line my bottom lashline.
The 3rd X I used also in my outer crease and blended out to add definition.

Like I had said before, I don't wear eyeshadow much, so I am an amateur in training! But I hope you all enjoyed this post and liked the overall look. Have a fun and safe holiday weekend everyone!
