Too Faced Cosmetics Shadow Bon Bons Palette

Today I have a beautiful treat to show you, the Too Faced Cosmetics Holiday 2012, Limited Edition: Shadow Bon Bons! Do you know what  bon-bons are? They are small candies covered in chocolate. No chocolate candy for you today, but something even better…makeup!

The photo below, taken with a flash, was swatted with a primer of the Shadow Insurance Candlelight, a sheer gold color.

Included is one full size mascara, lashGASM, and a 0.17 oz. size of Shadow Insurance in Candlelight:

Shadow Insurance Candlelight: 0.17 Oz. (Metric: 5g) Color: Sheer Gold. A primer and also can be used as a sheer illuminating eye shadow.

The Too Faced lashGASM:

0.4 Fl. Oz. (12 mL) This is a full size mascara!

Color: Black

This is advertised as being a “defining and volumizing mascara…to create dramatically long lashes with intense color.

Totally agree!! The brush on the mascara “flexi-firm”, enabled me to get each individual lash coated with mascara without clumping.

There are illustrations of three possible looks to create with each row in the Shadow Bon Bons. I have based mine off of one called, “Toasty Caramel” (using row 3 colors), and also included two shadows from row 2 that I blended: Lovey Dovey and Hot Cocoa.

Thoughts About the Too Faced Shadow Bon Bons:

If you’re looking for an organic product, this is not for you. However, of course, Too Faced is cruelty free—it has been since the company began fourteen years ago! I agree with Too Faced that Shadow Bon Bons does, “make it easy to create bountiful looks. Go from sweet and sassy to subtle to dramatic with this one versatile set.” Make sure to use a primer, and you’ll find all the shadows are pigmented. The only shadow that I had a bit of fallout from was Peach Fuzz.

I like that there are three illustrated looks that you can create. I used it as a basis for the above photo. Shadow Bon Bons is a great value in that you’re not only getting twelve eye shadows, but you’re also able to sample the Shadow Insurance in Candlelight, and you receive a great, full size mascara!
