Too Faced
Chocolate Bar Palette (review)
Who does not know about the original chocolate bar palette. A
very nice neutral palette by too faced for day to day use. It is a warm tone palette.
Price: It is available at Sephora or even online for Rs
6500/-
Packaging: Very elegant packaging, looking just like
chocolate bar and also inside it smells like chocolate. It comes with a paper which show three
different looks pulled of by this palette.Opens and inside there is a mirror which is use-able.
Product: This palette contains 16 eyeshadows. All sort
of neutrals are in here, metallic, mattes and shimmery shadows. Out of sixteen
shadows, two of them are bigger in size and one is matte and the other is
shimmery.
Gilded Ganache: It is sort of deep brown shade with
a hint of green mixed in it and contains golden shimmer inside. The colour payoff
is good but keep in mind.. Also it is quite buildable and easy to blend.
White Chocolate: This is one of the big eyeshadows
in the palette. One of my favorites from the palette reason being its matte and
gets on beautifully. Has very buttery consistency to it.
Milk
Chocolate: Another matte eyeshadow, a medium brown shadow, very
good transition shade also can be worn on the lid. Super soft and just lovely.
Black
Forest Truffle: This shadow is deep purple with lots of
sparkle to it. This shadow in my opinion is not so great reason being the
texture is not so good and it is not pigmented. Like when you apply with brush,
you have to do extra effort to build up and it does not show the sparkle a lot..
if you use this shadow wet it will work good. Otherwise there will be a lot fall
out also.
Triple
Fudge: The most darkest matte and pigmented deep brown shadow. It
blends easily and it builds up easily also can be used as a liner if used wet.

Salted
Caramel: okay, this shade is very pretty, orangey brown warm toned
colour with excellent colour payoff. What makes it pretty is that it is another
matte in the palette. The texture is very soft and I did not notice any fall
out also.
Marzipan: This shade is on the peachy side with metallic finish
to it. This shade is very pigmented and it has very good colour payoff.
Semi-sweet: another warm medium brown eyeshadow. Yes its
matte and its very soft and blends very nicely
Strawberry Bon Bon: This is a very beautiful colour. It
has good colour payoff and it is matte. It can be used for highlighting tear duct
area or your brow bone. For my skin tone it cannot be used as a lid colour
because it does not show on my skin.
Candied Violet: This
shadow has warm pinky sparkle to it and is very nice violet colour. I have used
this wet and on its own, both ways it looks decent.
Amaretto: This colour is medium brown and it has metallic
finish to it. Super soft and very pigmented and very good colour payoff.

Hazelnut: This
shade is medium brown colour with frosted golden sheen to it. Good colour
payoff and very pigmented.
Creme Brulee: Another favorite colour of mine in this
palette is this warm pure golden colour with a little metallic finish to it. Super
super pigmented very soft texture and smoothly applies.
Cherry Cordial: This is dark
plum yet wearable matte shade. Since it is a warm palette overall, so this
shade goes beautifully in the crease.
Champagne Truffle: This is the second big shade in the palette. A very
frosted pinky white metallic shade. It can also be used for highlighting you
face also. Now since I am reviewing this palette now, so let me tell you also
that this shade is also in nikkietutorails too faced palette( limited edition)
as a highlighter in her palette.
Hazelnut, Creme Brulee, Cherry cordial and champagne truffle
Over all: I feel this palette over all is
very good. You can go from neutral eye look to very smokey eye look.. I like
this palette. Will I recommend this palette to anyone? Yes I will.
Also FYI, I
like this palette better than the naked 1 palette because it has more variety
of colour as well as it has a lot of mattes which makes this palette more
useable than the naked 1 which has a lot of sparkle to it.
Score: 9/10
