Too Faced's No Makeup Makeup Face Palette - Currently on sale at $41.80
oh my goodness gracious, look at all that pink + shimmer. i bought this because i wanted a cheek palette with cooler tones than my naked flushed palette which is barely used. i can't stand when my blush or bronzer is super obvious (i mean ive got pink hair + a strong pink cheek makes me look like a strawberry) so the idea of a 'no makeup' look appealed to me. plus the packaging is so pretty i could cry.
I will be honest in saying that although the colours are quite pigmented they are still quite light when applied hence the no makeup look. perfect for day time but maybe not at night. it is the perfect size for in your purse and comes in a metal tin so its fine to travel with. the palette also includes a little 'how to' pull out which i didnt really bother with but again was very pink + pretty + covered in little hearts.
the bronzer is very light with a golden shimmer which i love but you do have to work to build up the colour. this was a bonus for me because i like to keep my bronzer as minimal as possible. both blushes are very pink (my favourite!) but the creme blush has slightly warmer and more natural tones.
all the reviews for this palette i read prior to purchasing it had the same complaint: the concealer is too dark. and oh my god it is. its stupidly dark for a palette that is targeted towards fairer and cooler skin (too faced do a similar palette for warmer skin tones) and is the one major let down. luminize gives a really pretty sheer pink glow, that sort of slightly sweaty + blushing look that im all about in summer. brighten is perfect for on your brow bone, its definitely brightens up your eyes but also has surprising coverage with will make your brows look super strong + perfect. all three have a very creamy consistency.
overall i really like this little palette. it's very easy to use, the colours arent so pigmented that you can really over do it + the shades are some of the best cooler tones ive used. it definitely delivers that effortless "no makeup" look where you've actually spent like 40 minutes on your face but i love that look for warmer weather. a definite recommendation for any of you little petals with fairer skin.
