Too Faced Natural Radiance Face Palette

I'm so excited to share this product with you just because it's amazing. I received a press release for this a month or so ago, maybe longer, and waited waited waited for the release date and then bought it the second it came out. That's how keen I was to get it.
I've never tried Too Faced cosmetics before, well not as far as I can recall, but something about this really captured me as soon as I saw the press release. Perhaps I was imagining a sculpted face, supermodel stylee, either way. I bought it. The packaging is lovely. Up there is the lovely outer packaging. You open that to reveal this box:
 Obviously, it's what's inside that's important though.
 Okay, so what you have is a box that closes magnetically, with a mirror in the lid. Then six products, two powder and four cream as follows. Powder Bronzing Veil, Creme Blush, Powder Blush, Concealer, Luminizer and Brightener.

You may be forgiven for thinking that the Brightener and Luminizer sound like they are probably the same but they are not. Take a little look at the swatches of all of the above.
All lovely soft natural shades, with the luminizer definitely shimmery whereas the brightener isn't. The main reason I really wanted this kit though was the idiot's guides that come with it. I LOVE a guide because quite frankly, I'm a cosmetics dunce, the more guidelines the better. These are FAB!
Of course you can use the products however you wish to, but should you want a bit of help, these are invaluable and they really work.

I wanted to take photographs of these products in use but of course because they are subtle, its hard to make them show up on photographs! I've taken some pics anyway to show you, using the "Classic Radiance" card, and I have to say, I really think I look radiant! The last picture in particular shows the light bouncing off the areas with the brightener and I just love the look of these products.
 Other than the Natural Radiance Face Palette, I'm wearing Clarins Skin Illusion Foundation (104), Clarins Pink Coral Joli Rouge Sheer Lipstick, MeMeMe FatCat Mascara and Mac Mega Metal Shadow in Dalliance.

I do have one reservation about this product though I have to say and that is that I do as a rule tend to avoid creme products in pans. They never seem to last long as there never seems to be much product there so I'm anxious that I may not get my money's worth out of this. If this lasts me a good while it will be £31 well spent but, well, we'll see.  I do love this SO much I'm half tempted to buy a back up... I have no idea if this is a limited edition item or not so I don't know what to do!

I love this palette more than I can say! I paid £31 and bought it from Beautybay, who I highly recommend. The order included some fantastic free samples and delivery was speedy.

  1. I agree, you do look radiant, more so in the 2nd and 3rd pic. Your face has a glow and it looks really natural.
