Too Faced 2016 Holiday Gift Sets and Look/Lip Swatches*


Sorry I've been MIA - I've wanted to get this post up for a few days now, but my food poisoning has really set me back this weekend. 

It's no surprise that Too Faced is known for their extremely cute packaging that satisfies every make-up lover's desires. Therefore, it is no surprise that their Holiday 2016 collection is equally as cute! I was sent three items to review:
1. The Grand Hotel Cafe ($62 cad) 
2. Merry Kissmas ($32 cad)
...so keep on reading below to see my thoughts, lip swatches and a make-up look I created with these products.

The Grand Hotel Cafe features 3 eyeshadow/cheek palettes that are uniquely scented and a Better Than Sex mascara. In total there are 18 shadows and 3 cheek products - 2 blushes and a bronzer. As noted on the palette covers, it is scented with Peppermint Mocha, Eggnog Latte and Gingerbread Cookie. Each of the palettes are ultra pigmented, blendable and buttery smooth. I used the Peppermint Mocha (a bit out of my comfort zone) to create a look for all of you below. 

  
 
  

Below is the Let it Glow set that featured the deluxe size of the Candlelight Glow Highlighting Powder Duo in Rosy Glow, deluxe Love Flush 16-hour Blush in Love Hangover, deluxe Snow Bunny Luminous Bronzer and the ever so cute and super girly heart-shaped flatbuki brush. 

This set is perfect for those of you who travel alot or would like something less bulky to carry on-the-go. 



The Merry Kissmas set contains four travel-size containers of their best-selling Melted Liquified Long-Wear lipstick in its three different formulas - original, chocolate and matte. They are all really pigmented and one swipe is all it takes. It includes two of their bestselling shades in Chihuahua and Fig plus a new Melted Chocolate shade in Honey. I've always wanted to buy their Melted Matte in Lady Balls and well guess what, there's a travel size in it here. All of them are glossy in finish (obviously except for Lady Balls - which is the Melted Matte). The Melted Chocolate (Honey) is infused with antioxidant-rich cocoa powder and smells like chocolate. All of the Too Faced products that I love are scented with something delicious - it's so dangerous!

Until next time, XO - M.
