Too Faced Sweet Peach Eyeshadow Palette - Review

Hey guys! How are you? First post of the new year! Today I am reviewing a palette that started the peach eyeshadow craze and trend and that is the Too Face Sweet Peach Eyeshadow Palette. As soon as this palette came out it was sold out within hours. At first the Too Faced Sweet Peach Palette was limited edition, but with growing demand of the palette, it is now permanent and Too Faced Cosmetics launched a whole sweet peach line! Who doesn't love peaches right? Let's get into the review shall we?

Too Faced Sweet Peach Eyeshadow Palette retails at $49.00 and contains 18 peach scented eyeshadows ranging in matte and shimmer shades.

The packaging is super cute with the peach logo and gold lettering.

I love when eyeshadow companies print the actual colors on the pack to give you a preview of what the colors are inside.

Awww cute! Peaches! This has the same tin packaging as their other eyeshadow palettes.

My favorite colors of the palette are Luscious, Summer Yum, Bellini and Puree.

Swatches!

Review!

White Peach - Light frosty white shade. Has nice pigmentation  and works nicely as a highlight for the eyes such as the brow bone or inner tear duct.

Luscious- Peach champagne color. Nice color for the lids.

Just Peachy- Pinky peach color. This is not at pigmented as it looks in the pan. I found when using it I had to pack on the color multiple times. My advice is apply a white base first to make the color more vibrant.

Bless Her Heart- An olive shimmer shade. It has wonderful pigmentation.

Tempting- is a very dark purple color. Blends nicely and is good for adding dimension to your eye looks.

Charmed I'm Sure- beautiful chocolate brown color to smoke out your eye makeup.

Nectar- light yellow peach color. Excellent for highlight on the eyes as well as the cheekbones.

   Cobbler- light copper color. This color did not show up on my skin. Using a white base helped the color show up more on my lid.

Canned Peach- beautiful orangey peach color. I found the texture on this shade to be dry. Also the pigmentation is lacking. It shows best over a white base.

Bellini- rose gold color. It is a beautiful color however when I applied in onto my lid it didn't show up very well. I applied a white base to make the color pop. the color is still gorgeous.

Peach Pit- Plum with dark undertones. Great pigmentation.

Delectable- Eggplant purple. I found this color difficult to blend. Still a beautiful color with nice pigmentation.

Peach Creme- is a cream peach color. Makes for a nice highlight shade.

Georgia- light peach shade. Does not show up on my skin. This is the least favorite color of the eyeshadow shades in the palette.

Puree- Warm light brown. God pigmentation and works as a nice transition shade.

Summer Yum- Red brown color. Such a beautiful crease and transition shade.

Talk Derby To Me-  is a purple with with a little blue undertone and purple micro glitter. This color didn't swatch well. This color can be used at a shade in the outer v of the eye to add depth to your look.

Final Thoughts

Overall, I really like the Too Faced Sweet Peach Eyeshadow Palette. For the most part the pigmentation is really nice. There are a few that are lacking good pigmentation and has dry texture that made it hard to blend. I wore the eyeshadows for about 7 hrs and there were no signs of creasing. In my opinion, I thought the palette could of had more peachy shades and less purple. The packaging is cute and very sturdy perfect for traveling. If you love peaches and peach scented eyeshadows as well as warm toned eyeshadow shades then the Too Faced Sweet Peach Eyeshadow Palette will be a nice addition to your collection.

You can find the Too Faced Sweet Peach Eyeshadow Palette as well as the whole sweet peach collection at Ulta and Sephora!

*Products were provide for review by Ba Star Pro Makeup through Brandbacker*

Hey Lovelies! Hope everyone is doing well. Today I will be reviewing BA Star Midnight Smokey Palette. I love smokey palettes and they are great colors to use for night time looks  whether you are attending a party, date night or a special event. Ba Star Makeup are geared toward performers, dancers and cheerleaders.You do not not have to be any of these to enjoy their makeup line. Hope you enjoy the review sweeties :)

BA Star Makeup Palette in Midnight Smokey retails at $8.95 and has five eyeshadows in their palette. It is long lasting high quality makeup. 

I was also given a BA Star Eye Shadow and Glitter Base along with the palette. This base helps gives the eyeshadows and glitter staying power, sweat resistant, adds metallic quality, and depth to eyeshadows.

Pros:

Great Pigmentation

Long Lasting

Cons:

None

Packaging is nice,sleek and sturdy.

Eye Shadow and glitter base.

The  eyeshadow colors are shimmery with the exception of the black eyeshadow color. The black eyeshadow color has tiny specks of glitter in, but the base color is matte.

Swatches:

These were swatched without a base. The pigmentation is really good even without an eyeshadow base.

These were swatched using the BA Star Eyeshadow and Glitter base. The eyeshadow base made the colors more pigmented and vibrant.

My Thoughts:

Over All, I am quite impressed with the quality of the BA Star Makeup Midnight Smokey Palette. The pigmentation is great and it blends nicely. The BA Star Eyeshadow and Glitter Base helps it last for a very long time. I wore the eyeshadows on top of the base for eight hours and there was no sign of fading or creasing. This palette is ideal for those who are performers,cheerleaders, and dancers, However, anyone can use it . If you want long lasting eyeshadow then the BA Star Makeup Palette in Midnight Smokey will also be perfect for anyone going out to a party, date or special event at night.

Charger for My Mac book Pro Doesn't Work :(

      As salaamu alaykum and hello lovelies, As you can see from the title of this blog post, my charger to my Macbook is broken. I have all my pending photos for future blogposts on my laptop,without the charger I can't use my lap top and continue with pending posts. All my photos are saved on my laptop and I forgot to drag the photos to my Dropbox. :( In case you are wondering what a dropbox is, it is a awesome app you can download on your devices and use to drop your photos in and access them from all devices even other people's computers by visiting the Dropbox website. You can also open an account online. I think it is an essential tool for bloggers in case you're in a situation like mine. Unfortunately, I didn't drop my photos there so I can't work on my other pending blog posts :( Lesson learned.

For those who have MacBooks,I am sure you can understand my frustration.Apple is all about being innovative when it it comes to technology,but as far as the hardware,it needs major improvement.Their headphones  are poorly made as well and they cost around $30.00. I had my laptop since 09 and I went through three chargers.The first charger that came with the laptop broke years ago.I then purchased another one.That lasted for little over a year.I was forced to buy another one and that lasted for little over a year as well. It recently broke. So now, I have a buy another one. This will be four chargers in four years. To my observation and experience, these chargers life span average between a year to year and a half.I am not happy at all. These chargers are expensive. They retail at $79.99. I read reviews on the Apple  website on the charger, and out of 1,626 reviews, they gave this product one and a half stars. Clearly these people have the same issue as I do. I think they are cheaply made and they do that on purpose.

Keep in mind I had this charger for a little over a year. Look at the condition. Poorly made. People on the Apple website complained about this fraying of the cord in the exact same spot.

  I am sorry for ranting and complaining.lol  In case you are wondering I am posting from my iPad. I prefer my laptop,so I guess this will do for now until my fourth charger arrives. I hope you are all having a better day than me.

   You can consider this post a review as well lol. I give this product a 3/10. 

Have a wonderful day my lovelies ox see you in my next blog post.
