Too Faced Chocolate Bon Bon Palette + Theme Park make up look


Who doesn't enjoy sweet treats for the eye and on the eyes? I know that I do! The idea of infusing cocoa powder into eye shadows was intriguing when Too Faced launched its first Chocolate palette. It still is a novelty for makeup to smell deliciously like a chocolate bar and I'm happy to know that Too Faced has extended its Chocolate series palette with Chocolate Bon Bons.




The Chocolate Bon Bons continue with its chocolate bar packaging tradition just like its previous two palettes. The light pink casing reminded me of a strawberry chocolate bar and the most attractive feature were the eye shadow filled heart-shaped pots instead of the usual rectangular or squarish pots. 


14 Colors & 2 high lighting shades 

14 Colors:

- Almond Truffle
- Cashew Chew
- Black Truffle
- Peacan Praline
- Totally Fetch
- Cafe au Lait
- Cotton Candy
- Molasses Chip
- Mocha
- Malted
- Black Currant

Highlighting:

- Satin Sheets

- Divinity

The colors were highly pigmented, it took me two swirls on my fingers for it to transfer nicely onto my skin. However for better visibility of the colors on camera, I had to swatch twice for Almond Truffle and Divinity. All of the colors are smooth and is easy to apply on the eye and as for now I adore the combination of Mocha x Molasses Chip x Malted for a neutral look.

THOUGHTS

The Chocolate Bon Bons no doubt is the palette for Spring. The combination of neutral shades and pops of pink is like a dream come true for me since I've always wanted pink shades in my palette but not as a main color. In this one, the balance for neutrals and pink shades allows you space for creating new looks and functions as a switch up for your usual everyday look.

However, when we bring versatility into the topic I feel that Bon Bons would not make the cut for being the One that you stick throughout the year or seasons. For my ladies who find absolutely no connection with the color pink then this one would definitely not appeal to you.


Theme park Make Up Look 

Inspired by the cute girls I came across while I was in Disney Sea, the most common make up sighting were their star studded cheeks. 

 In this look I used the star gems (for nail art) for an extra twinkling effect. 

 Colors used: 
Sprinkles, Totally Fetch & Black Currant


1) Using Sprinkles as a base color and pat it all over your lids

 2) On your outer corners of your crease, pick up totally fetch and blend inwards.

3) Using black currant, gently pat a small amount closer to the lash line of the outer V of your eyes and blend. 

 4) Make sure that your shadows are blended in. (False eyelashes are optional) 

 5) Put on your star gems by dabbing a tiny amount of eyelash glue onto the star and place it on the high points of your cheeks. 



There you have it, a theme park make up look~ 

Comment below if you own this palette, let me know your thoughts!


Till next time,

My All Time Favourite.

There is something in my closet that I can't help but to keep repeating and I will never get tired of... And that is the light washed chambray top.  The light washed chambray top is my current favourite piece in my wardrobe because I feel that it is so versatile and it can go with almost any clothing. It could be used as a good layering piece or even worn on it's own~ Paired my chambray shirt with this oxblood skater skirt.  Chambray shirt (Cotton On)//Oxblodd skater skirt (Cotton On)//Suede Fringe Bag (GMarket)//Espirit Watch (Mom's)//Thin skinny belt (Dorothy Perkins)//Bracelets (Hand-made)//Leopard hair bow (Diva) Wore my chambray shirt over a pastel orange skirt.  Chambray shirt (Cotton On)//Pastel orange skirt (ASOS)//Pastel bow hair clip (BKK)//Bag(Charles & Keith)// Espirit watch (Mom's)//Bangles (Lovisa) This time, I wore my chambray shirt as an outer wear with my favourite leopard dress. This leopard dress is also one of my favourit...

Hello! I'm back again after a week of intense revision for mid-terms for law. How have everyone been? This week had been hectic because of all the revision that I had to do, I hardly have time to sleep or even watch my favourite T.V shows. :S But all was good this week.. This was what I've been up to for the week. So thankful that the test went pretty well and I'm so done with it! Nail of the Week! If you know me well enough you'd know that I do manicures and pedicures myself. My favourite brand of nail polish is O.P.I even though I do use nail polishes from other brands as well. O.P.I will always be my ultimate favourite. These two colours are my current favourites and I've used the pink one consecutively two weeks. Left: NL M14 (I'm All Ears) & NL Z19 (Glitzerland) Both the colors are so beautiful that I couldn't make up my mind which to use. So I used both colors on the hands. Outfit of the week! This was what I wore to school on M...

Inspirations Coming at the Weirdest Timing.

Yes, it is another Urban Decay product.  I guess I'm someone who likes a certain product from a brand, I would perceive that brand as  good and would wanna try the other products from the brand. That's the case for Urban Decay. After owning a few products by them, I tend to have the urge to wanna sweep everything off their shelf when I'm at Sephora.  This purchase was done a few months back, haven't got the chance to post a review on it because I was stuck and I didn't know how to continue writing my content. God knows how many drafts have I accumulated till now.  I always have inspiration and ideas on what to write but then, sometimes it just wouldn't spark.  This box of eyeliner is somewhat an impulse buy, I went into Sephora without any intention to buy but once the word 'Sales' hit me. Damn, that's the keyword that all I ever need.  But oh well, I still didn't get a discount in the end because I forgot to flash my e-mail to ...
