Too faced 'a few of my favorite things' palette

Too faced a few of my favorite things palette. (Limited edition)
20 eyeshadows, 2 blushes, 2 bronzers
Price: $56 

This is the limited edition Too Faced palette "a few of my favorite things".  This palette comes with a cute box that it pretty big with pink and gold designs on it.  It comes with 20 eyeshadows, 2 blush's, 2 bronzers, a mascara and a lip plumping balm all in a compact little bag. This palette can be found at sephora for $56.  

My Review:
When I first saw this, it caught my eye and just had to buy it!  When you look at the palette itself it is intimidating with all the shadows and extras that it comes with.  And for the price, it comes with alot  of products!  It looks super pretty and a huge palette to work with.  

So, when I got this palette the first thing was to try this palette out as I got home.  I was thinking "hey where's the little bag that it comes with?"  I thought I got jipped><  Anyways I opened the box and I was surprised to see the little bag inside that box!  The bag is very sleek and it would be great for traveling since the palette, mascara and lip plumper fits all in that little bag.  

I honestly love this palette and the shadows are very fun and also very neutral for everyday looks.  I also love the shadow names since they are so festive! This palette is pigmented and fun to wear(:
*front view of box*

The box is a little big and I thought the palette was going to be huge!  But it is a sleek palette.  Very thin and compact.

*back view of box*

The back of the box shows the eyeshadows, blushs and bronzers along with the 2 products.

*The bag that the palette came in*

I was amazed that everything fit into this small bag(:  Cute bag; matches the box and packaging.

*The palette*

All the packaging has the same print.  This is the palette.  It has a magnetic closer which I really like.  The palette is sleek and fits in the little bag.  

*20 eyeshadows*

Here are the 20 eyeshadows that it came with!

*swatch row 1*

(left to right) snowflakes, whiskers on kittens, chocolate milk, moon on their wings, dark chocolate

Moon on their wings has a lot of sparkle and large glitters that makes it hard to apply since you can feel all the glitter particles.  But it is a nice color.

*swatch 2nd row*

(left to right)  cream colored ponies, honey honey, buche de noel, evergreen, blue satin sashes

*swatch 3rd row*

(left to right)  coquet, taffy, crisp apple strudel, woolen mittens, soiree

*swatch 4th row*

(left to right)  tinsel, bluff, ooh la orchid, party time, pure glam

I really like how the shadows have a irridescent look to them with gold specks which shine in the light very nicely.  For example 'party time' would have to be my ultimate favorite in this palette because it gives off this sheer yet powerful bright purple that reflects in the light.

*2 blush, 2 bronzer)

The 2 blush's are both pinks.  The first blush has some gold specks in it while the 2nd blush is more matte and a coral pink.

The 2 bronzers are like any brown bronzer.  The 1st one is matte and a chocolatey brown while the 2nd bronzer has a mix of 2 shades.  It is shimmery  and has this gold look to it.

*swatch 2 blush, 2 bronzer*

(left to right)  raindrops on roses blush, chocolate soleil bronzer, melt into spring blush, sun bunny bronzer

*measurement*

This palette is around 8 1/2in. It could totally fit into your carry on or suitcase for traveling since it is very sleek(:

*2 products the palette came with*

Along with the palette, it also came with 2 extra products.  The lip injection color bomb! in bee sting.  And better than sex mascara.

*Mascara*

This is the 'better than sex' mascara.  It comes with 4.8g/0.16oz. or product.  It is in black and I am not sure if this is water proof.  Im pretty sure it isnt since it doesnt say.  But I like this mascara because it doesnt clump nor does it tend to have fallout throughout the day.  It holds up my curl pretty good, but not through the entire day.

*close up* 

This mascara wand looks like any mascara wand and is not special in any way.

*measurement*

It is around 3 1/2in. Fairly small; like a sample sized product.

*lip injection*

This is the lip injection color bomb!  in bee sting.  It has 3.0g/0.10oz. of product which is pretty big.  It is a lip balm stain which has a lip plumping product inside.  I don't like lip plumpers since I hate the tingly feeling on my lips.  So, I tried it a few times in hopes of liking it but I don't like that feeling...  I guess I wont be using this.  

*close up*

The product looks nice and cute.  It matches the whole pink and gold theme too.

*measurement*

Around 4 1/2in.  A pretty good sized product.

Overall, I love the palette since the colors are very neutral and wearable.  The names of each shadow is perfect for the holidays and packaging is cute.  For the mascara, I also like alot.  It doesn't smear and have any fallout.  But, it could hold a curl longer.  The lip injection balm, I have to say I don't like at all.  I wish it was just a lip balm stain instead of a plumper.

Rate palette: 5/5
Rate mascara: 4/5
Rate lip injection: 1.5/5
