The brand Too Faced is starting to phase out their old packaging some a slimmer, more travel friendly version. It is an aluminum container and I think it is the perfect size complete with a magnetic closure. They have been releasing all of their new palettes in this form but now they are starting to re-release original versions which is so exciting! I have been talking myself out of some of their original palettes because of the packaging.

So here is their first re-release, the Natural Eye Neutral Palette.




This palette is so great for creating day to night looks and I have been especially loving it this week for a daytime smokey eye. The colors are so rich and buttery soft like you would expect from Too Faced.



The Shades:
Heaven - matte ivory cream
Cashmere Bunny - matte milk chocolate with an extra dash of milk
Sexpresso - matte dark chocolate
Silk Teddy - golden shimmery pink
Push-up - medium rose gold shimmer
Erotica - cool toned deep brown with golden glitter specks
Nudie - matte taupe
Honey Pot - coppery gold shimmer
Chocolate Martini - deep warm toned espresso with golden glitter specks

shades used: heaven, cashmere bunny, and erotica

Mac Cosmetics has released three sets of pigment for the holiday season. I have gotten the green and teal set. It looked like something that was different from anything in my collection already pigment wise. They retail at $32.50 on Mac's website. There is also the Black & Gold set (which I am eyeing) and the Silver & Violet set. I believe the Green & Teal set is sold out but I am almost positive you can grab this one off ebay.













For those of who don't know about pigments, they are really fun. They are loose shadows and mostly shimmery and glittery. You can do so many things with them, from a highlight on the cheeks, mixing with foundation for a glow, or mix with your lipstick for some added dimension. They also are one of those products that can work wonderful wet. Mac's Fix+ is a great product to use for that.

One of my favorite pigments from Mac is the shade Tan. It is a rose gold/bronze shade. You can mix this with foundation and it looks gorgeous! It is really great all year long but in the summer with a tan = golden goddess! For my fellow blue eyed lady's out there, it makes your eye color stand out so vividly.
