EOTD:- My everyday look

Using too faced natural eye palette


Products used 
Too faced natural eye eyeshadow palette 
Rubenesque paintpot 
Mac black track fluid line gel liner 
Mac lash primer
Mac zoom lask mascara 
mac feline khol power eye liner pencil



I have been doing this look almost everyday throughout the summer holidays 
I find that it is very complimentary to my skintone since its gold, bronze and rose gold 

Im using every colour in the palette except for one -because its glitter-mania!
Although i could realistically incorporate it into the look as inner corner and under eyebrow highlight 

Im thinking about doing a tutorial on this 
let me know your thoughts 

I had to share this with you as im still using this same look 

Is there a single palette that you are really loving or that really works for you ??

Too Faced Glamour gloss lipgloss review and swatches

They Say 
A super shine lip gloss collection with a natural plumping and cooling action. Twelve richly pigmented shades offer a chic range of choices for todays glam girl.
I say -
If you are a really girly girl and you love really girly things then you might want to check out these lipglosses. 
The packaging is not only a pretty metallic pink but there is a crystal in the end of the lid that gives this lipgloss a very glamorous look.

I thought this product was only goog for the packaging so when I swatched them i was very pleasantly surprised by the actual product.

My Favourite shades from the too faced Glamour gloss collection are the ones featured in the swatches.

The formula is very nice and not too stickey and it has a very pleasant minty taste 

If you have loved the too faced lip injections lip glosses then I definitely recommend that you check these out. 

These are available in most places that stock too faced products
In the Uk this includes boots and more recently debenhams



Shade descriptions as described on the too faced website 

Barely Legal -Marshmallow pink
First time - Perfect nude
Pillow talk - Mauve shimmer
Plush - Candied coral

Although there are no real rules but just as a tip
try barely legal for pale to light skin
Pillow talk is probably the most universal my lips but better shade 
First time is nice for light to medium skin tones
and plush would look gorgeous on any skin tones especially darker skintones 
plush is a similar colour to the famous Nars orgasm blush 

Let me know if you already have any of these or if you pick one up then Id love to know which ones you get. 

Leave a comment and Ill get back to you 

XOXO

REVIEW:- Too faced naked eye palette v too faced natural eye palette

I bought the natural eye palette less than a week before the naked eye palette was released
the naked eye palette on the right, is more warmer shades such as golds and bronzes
where as the naked palette on the left is more neutrals and taupes
the natural eye palette is for people who love their sparkly or bling looks where as the naked is more for people who prefer smokey looks

although any person can use any palette for their own personal preference and tastes just as a guide

for those of you who like things in MAC terms -
Naked is best for skin tones nw/nc upto nc35
Natural is best for skin tones nw/nc from nc35 and above

and in general skin tone terms
Naked is best for the fairest skin tones to medium skin tones
Natural is best for medium to deepest darkest skin tones

and celebrity examples
naked would be keira knightley, anne hathaway, emily blunt to cheryl cole
natural would be aishwariya rai, jennifer lopez, kim kardashian, tyra banks, to Iman.

I think shimmer eye colours such as golds and metallics look amazing on deep brown asian and black  afro caribbean skin tones just because of the way darker skins absorb light.

I suggest nude pinky beige lips and pinky and neutral based blush with the naked palette

I suggest bronze and peach toned blush and lips and you can really go out on the lips with this palette, red lips look amazing with gold eyes especially for the christmas season and asian festivals such as eid, diwali and weddings.

The palettes are great for those starting in makeup as well because there are three look-cards in each palette, hidden in the lid -although I would have preferred a mirror!
Urban Decay are really good at providing mirrors in their palettes and I feel that this is one place where too faced is really slacking

'to too faced if you are reading this I strongly suggest mirrors in your compacts it really makes life easier for us busy girls always on the go!'

ofcourse you dont have to follow the looks you can make your own combo's which I always do!

I hope you found this review helpful
