The palette initially looks quite plain until you find the two sheets of stickers inside the box and realise YOU GET TO DECORATE IT YOURSELF. Yup, it's definitely one for the big kids out there, but I challenge you not to have some serious fun deciding what to use to style yours up.
Inside the pink metal tin, you'll find 9 eye shadow shades, three are more nude and come in larger pan sizes, along with 6 smaller, slightly bolder shades. Most of the shadows have a shimmery finish to it, with two that are matte, but I think it's a really versatile selection of colors that can work for day to night.
Storm Cloud is the most beautiful teal shimmer - not something I usually wear, but I have some serious plans for this for an upcoming night out. Shooting Star and Unicorn are great base colours and the larger pan sizes mean you won't run out of your favourites while you still have tons of the contrast colours left.
I've previously been a bit disappointed with the pigmentation of some Too Faced eye shadows, but I'm pleased to say that each and every one of these is a winner. The swatches are all taken with a single swipe; even the pink shade, which is a notoriously hard one to get right, has impressive amounts of pigment.
To minimise any fallout, I'd stick to a dense, flat headed brush to apply to colour initially and then blend out with something fluffier. The bolder shades work best when patted on rather than swiped around a lot, but it all depends on the depth of colour you're after.
All in all, I think this is my favourite Too Faced palette for ages and one I'd highly recommend buying, even if you're normally a neutrals girl like me.
It's priced at £32/$36 and can be found at Debenhams and Sephora.
