The Too Faced Chocolate Bar palette is one of the first palettes from Too Faced I've been excited about since I don't know when. It's a palette that's very warm, rich, and chocolatey with a few colors thrown in. I could see this being a great everyday palette that you could have a soft daytime look to a sultry smokey look.
Too Faced obviously gets an A+ for packaging and theme. From the box the palette comes in, the palette itself, the smell, to the names you see exactly what Too Faced was trying to do.
The colors are stunning! And this is a complete palette. You have your mattes, shimmer, metallics, and a few glitters, which is typically not my favorite. But you came to see some swatches and colors!
From left to right
Gilded Ganache is a deep olive khaki color. Colors like this look amazing on hazel and brown eyes. This is one of the four shades that has the glitter in it. All of which don't have the soft texture of the other shadows
White Chocolate is a matte cream shade. This is not the most unique shade but can be one of the more used shades. Even though I would have preferred two more shades in this palette (instead of two shades that are twice the size) I appreciate this shade being larger because I go through these colors quickly.
Milk Chocolate is one of my favorite shades in the palette and favorite shades to wear. It's a warm camel brown. This is a perfect shade for a soft crease or a transition color.
Black Forest Truffle is another sparkle frenzy shade. It's a deep cherry plum shade. Again the texture isn't as soft and buttery as some of the others, but considering some of Too Faced older glitter shades this is definitely a step in the right direction.
Triple Fudge is a deep chocolate matte brown. This is the worse matte in the palette. It's not a horrible matte but considering the texture of Milk Chocolate and Salted Caramel I would expect more. It is a but difficult to blend and build up. Not impossible to use, you just have to baby it a bit more.
Salted Caramel is similar to Milk Chocolate in depth but this is a bit more orange and easier to build up. The texture of this is amazing. Especially for it being a matte shade.
Marzipan is some what of a golden peach. This is a perfect lid shade for day to day and this shade is so pigmented and buttery.
Semi-Sweet is the last matte in the palette. This is lighter and more red toned than Triple Fudge.
Strawberry Bon Bon is a satin milky light pink. This is not my favorite shade and this one seems to be a bit more chalky than the rest of the shades.
Candied Violet is just that a violet shade with some glitter. The name is perfect but I don't typically reach for shades like this, but for purple lovers I could see this being a favorite.
Amaretto is a sparkly warm taupe. This shade is very pigmented and another shade I could see being a favorite everyday color.
Hazelnut is a very warm orange shimmery brown. I love shades like this. This shade would make hazel and blue eyes pop!
Creme Brûlée is a shade I would have assumed would be more beige than the gold it is. This is a very soft gold and not a harsh yellow gold or harsh brass gold.
Haute Chocolate has a tiny bit of olive undertones. This shade just makes me think of fall haha. It is a pigmented and smooth shade.
Cherry Cordial is a reddened dark brown with some shimmer. The texture is a little bit dry so I could see this one being a bit harder to blend out.
Champagne Truffle is the second and last double sized shade. Again this isn't the most unique shade but every palette needs a good highlighting shade for the inner corner and brow bone.
All in all I am a big fan of this palette. I'm sad to say this is a limited edition palette because I'm sure most people will want this and could use it daily. So whether you like the theme of the palette and collection or not this is still a useless palette for anyone's collection!
