Too Faced Chocolate Gold Eyeshadow Palette | Review & Swatches

Hey everyone! I have honestly been eyeing the Too Faced Chocolate Gold Eyeshadow Palette before it even launched and removed it once out of my cart. After doing some research on my own, I just had to purchase it because the shades will look stunning on my hazel eyes and there are so many fabulous possible colour combinations! I haven't been this excited about an eyeshadow palette in awhile and the packaging is right up my alley!

The Palette, Shade Names & Packaging

The names of the shadows are words and phrases that I actually use in my every day life. This palette honestly couldn't have been any better or any more fitting for me! My personal favourites are: Decadent, So Boujee, Holla For A Dolla and Money Bags. The packaging screamed my name and the dripping gold is everything! The gold part of the palette will get finger prints on it and you can easily wipe them away which isn't a deal breaker in my opinion as it is easy to clean. The packaging is sturdy and I would take them traveling with me because it won't occupy much space. Some shades can be doubled as a highlighter and I love a great multi-use palette!

Just like their Chocolate Soleil Bronzers and their previous Chocolate Bar Palettes, this one is no exception: they smell like chocolate! 

The palette does come with a Glamour Guide and gives you step-by-step instructions on how to recreate 3 gorgeous eye looks using this palette.

Shade Range, Swatches & Formula

I do like the layout of these shadows and you can create so many different looks from an every day wearable look to a more night time, going out on the town look! You can use just this palette to create an entire look of you can use other palettes along with this one. You are getting 16 shades in total, 2 are in larger rectangular pans and 14 are smaller in size. These shadows are infused with real gold as well as cocoa powder and they claim to deliver pigmentation with one-swipe, full-coverage payoff. 

I want to mention that for the swatches, I went over the finger swatches a maximum of 2 times and the shade Chocolate Gold was so pigmented that I only went over it while swatching it, once on my arm. Not only the metallic shades but also the matte shades were very creamy, soft and swatched like a dream! I had been hearing many people comment that this is one of Too Faced's better formulas as it is creamy, buttery, soft and blendable on the eyes. Just by finger swatching them initially, I agree with those claims and the formula did impress me! It is formulated without: parabens, sulfates, phthalates, gluten and it claims to be cruelty-free.

Size, Price & Where To Buy

14 of the shadows weigh 0.03 oz/0.85 grams and the 2 larger pans weigh in at 0.07 oz/2 grams. I purchased mine on the Sephora website for $59 but you can also find it on the Too Faced website and at Ulta.

Update: It's now selling for $65 at Sephora.

Final Thoughts & Is It Worth The Money?

This is obviously a more high end palette and something that you may be thinking of splurging on. It may be early to say but I do think that this eyeshadow palette will be amongst my favourites of this year and I will be getting a lot of use out of it! It is definitely worth the splurge and it is perfect for those with hazel or green eyes to really get them to pop! This is getting displayed front and centre on my makeup vanity!

Until next time,

STAY CLASSY
