Tasteful in Toronto: Review and Swatches: Too Faced “The Return of Sexy” Palette ♥

Hey everyone!!

Today I’m going to be reviewing the Too Faced “The Return of Sexy” palette. There is somewhat of controversy around this palette but I personally love it. Some people think it fades easily and it all blends together throughout the day but I don’t agree AT ALL. You can get it at Sephora stores for $54 CAD (+tax).

Unlike some palettes the Too Faced “The Return of Sexy” palette is super sturdy.
It’s made out of black plastic and once you pick it up you can immediately feel the quality because of its weight.
It’s not too big or too small, which makes it the ideal size for travelling.

Once you open the palette, the top section is a huge mirror that can easily be used to complete an eye look.
Behind the mirror are three cards for the three different colour schemes in the palette.
For each scheme they have a day time and a night time look, which I thought can be super helpful for beginners to makeup.

Now for the fun part! The inside bottom part of the palette is where the eyeshadows are.
Like I mentioned before, there are three different sections of eyeshadows based on their colour scheme.
Each scheme has a combination of five different cool and warm colours.
There is a neutral section called “The Ingénue”, a purple section called “The Icon” and a super smoky section called “The Bombshell” –which one are you lol-.
The eyeshadows themselves aren’t like other Too Faced eyeshadows.
They aren’t as velvety or buttery.
Although you can noticeably see that the formula is different the quality however is still amazing. They are super pigmented and last really long.
When you apply them they may feel a little dry but I haven’t noticed any falling or blending.

The palette also comes with a baby Too Faced “Shadow Insurance” (which I personally prefer to the Urban Decay “Primer Potion”) and a Too Faced “Perfect Eyes Waterproof Eyeliner”.

Can I just take a minute to rant about the amazingness of this eyeliner!
Its honestly one of the creamiest eyeliners on the market AND its actually waterproof! Texture-wise it’s exactly like the Urban Decay “24/7 Glide on Eye Pencil” and staying-wise it’s like the Makeup Forever “Aqua Eyes” without the tugging!
The more and more i use it the more its becoming one of my favourite eyeliners!
