I did a review for this palette yesterday. Here are some pics of a look created using the Too Faced Semi-Sweet Chocolate Bar Palette in addition to the video.
TOO FACED SEMI-SWEET CHOCOLATE BAR PALETTE REVIEW & SWATCHES
Last year around this time Too Faced Cosmetics released their Chocolate Bar palette to rave reviews and became one of the year's must have palettes. The original Chocolate bar palette not only came with 16 user friendly shades that was dominated by neutrals but also included some colours. I actually use the word colour very loosely here as we are referencing to the shades 'Strawberry Bon Bon,' 'Candied Violet' and 'Cherry Cordial.' But that is the thing that makes the Chocolate Bar palettes a bit different from all the other 'neutral' palettes on the market. Oh, that and the fact that the palettes actually do smell like chocolate (they're made with real cocoa powder) and the aroma is still present even after almost a year.
Now comes the new Too Faced Semi-Sweet Chocolate Bar palette and you can already see why the excitement would be present when word got out about its release. It takes many of the traits from the original Chocolate Bar palette as in:
- 7 Matte shades
- 7 Shimmery shades
- 2 Glitter shades
- 14 smaller shadows
- 2 larger shadows
- A dash of 'colour'
- The sweet aroma of chocolate

Notice the names written on the palette |
Top Row L-R: Licorice, Coconut Creme, Nougat, Truffled & Hot Fudge |
Middle Row L-R: Cocoa Chili, Pink Sugar, Pudding', Blueberry Swirl, Peanut Butter & Frosting |
Bottom RowL-R: Rum Rasin, Mousse, Caramel, Bon Bon and Butter Pecan |
I like that the shadows are not organized in any particular way so it gives the user freedom of creativity. However, if you require a little more guidance to create looks, a Glamour Guide booklet is provided.
The new packaging is much sleeker but contains roughly the same amount of product |

MAKEUP TUTORIAL| NEUTRAL SMOKEY EYES DARK LIPS
I wanted to create a look that was neutral yet can be worn all year round by just simply switching the lip colour. Since it is fall, I wanted to do something vampy and dark but in various degrees of vamp. The first shade is straight Motorhead from Kat Von D, the second is layered with Lovecraft on top, and the last layered with Agatha, all from the Kat Von D Studded Kiss Lipstick set.

KHLOE KARDASHIAN MAKEUP TUTORIAL
I saw a picture of Khloe Kardashian a few weeks ago and it was from a still of a episode of KUWTK. I fell in love with the look and had it on my desktop for quite a while. Without realizing it, the shadows I purchased from the MUFE Artist Shadow collection were just perfect to create this look. Even the MUFE lipstick in #23 was spot on for this look.
I hope you guys enjoy this recreation. Let me know your thoughts in the comment section down below.
Love you all,
Bridget
