I decide to use my Sephora $15 gift card to purchase this awesome Too Faced Enchanted Glamourland Palette. It's been on my wish list for awhile but I hesitated thinking it was compact like the other Too Faced Palettes I collected over the years,I'm sure I posted the collection I have somewhere on the blog. This palette actually surprised me,it's almost as big as the Urban Decay Book Of Shadows and I'm 100% thrilled I picked it up before it sells out. Let me start out with some details about the size which is a generous 5 x 7 inches such as that of a thick journal and it has a 1.5 inch thickness. I think it's the first time Too Faced has made a big gorgeous pop up book style palette in this size. You get 15 eye shadows of which five are matte the rest are shimmer. They added some exclusives but gave them no names, the other shades are permanent in the Too Faced shadow family.You also get their best selling Le Vie En Rose Blush which I never tried because I'm not a pink powder blush fan but it's absolutely fresh rose shade and pretty that I may purchase the full size. You also get the best selling Snow Bunny bronzer/highlighter which I have tried and it's perfect for giving your skin an illuminating glow. The size of the blushes which are part of the palette and can't be removed is about an inch in size, it's not huge but it's bigger than Too Faced previous palette size blushes. What I'm really ecstatic about is that the lip gloss is a full size tube you can actually remove from the kit and take with you! It beats the typical palette gloss because they become totally useless and such a waste. It's the most beautiful nude shade with a hint of caramel taste on your lips and adds some plumping effect and a tingling sensation. It lasts a couple of hours so use a lip primer first. I will also be getting this product separately in the future. Another great value is a full size Shadow Insurance which costs under $30 on it's own so you get your money's worth with this kit. They could have added an eyeliner as well but you can use some of the shadows for that with a liner brush. The pigments are really rich and you pick up a lot of color with your brush and they have great staying power. I have been wearing Velvet Revolver with Stiletto smudged in the crease since this morning and it's still on. My absolute fave shade has got to be Label Whore which is a gorgeous green with a reddish holographic silvery shift to it, beautiful! I also love that they put three little look cards on the side envelope of the pop up fairy city, which by the way is so pretty with glitter all over the book. You can create three different looks with those cards if you need some ideas. The drawer of the palette itself is a pain to pull out though, you have to wiggle it a bit and be careful not to smudge the shadows. This is a limited edition Sephora exclusive so grab one before it's gone, you wont be disappointed! It's definitely worth the money because of the two full size pull out products which cost more than the price of the palette on it's own. It's not really a portable kit because it might get ruined but one you can stand up on your dresser to show off. This would be a great gift for girls of all ages because of the cute fairy factor but the shadows are subtle and mature enough for all women, there not loaded with tacky glitter at all. Also the colors should work well with most skin tones as well as the lip gloss shade because of it's flesh tone base. Urban Decay Shadow Books are still my fave but Too Faced palettes have always come in second place for me and Urban Decay take note and add some big full size pull out products as well in your next kit! Stay beautiful! XOXO
