Too Faced Chocolate Bar Palette Review


I'm sure you've seen tons of pictures and reviews on this palette and I honestly feel like I'm the last one to do a review on it but I really wanted to share my thoughts. Purchasing this palette was on a complete whim. I had been interested in it but I tried to avoid it because I really don't need it. However, one day as I was walking around Sephora I ended up randomly grabbing it and purchasing it.

I had already seen and read plenty of reviews on it so I didn't think I'd be disappointed. I just didn't know if I'd be super impressed either since I have tons of neutral shades. I went home and decided to immediately try an eye look just so I could play with the colors and see how the pigment transferred to my skin. Luckily, I fell in love!


The palette comes with a total of 16 shades ranging from light to dark, shimmery and matte. That also includes the two bigger shades that are highlights. I feel like this palette has a great range of colors that you can do countless looks with. It's not very often that I feel 100% confident using one palette to create a look but whenever I reach for this it ends up being the only one I use that day.

Here are some swatches of all the colors included in the palette!


Top Row: Gilded Ganache, White Chocolate, Milk Chocolate, Black Forest Truffle, and Triple Fudge.


Middle Row: Salted Caramel, Marzipan, Semi-Sweet, Strawberry Bon Bon, Candied Violet, and Amaretto.


Bottom Row: Hazelnut, Creme Brulee, Haute Chocolate, Cherry Codial, and Champagne Truffle.

(Champagne truffle is such a beautiful highlight color!)


As you can see, all of the colors pigment is magnificent. All of the colors are so creamy and they aren't patchy at all.  They apply very smoothly and you don't need to really layer it on to create a pigmented color/swatch.

Also, this whole palette smells like chocolate just like the rest of the Too Faced products in the "Chocolate" line. Not a super important point but definitely a pleasant one! 


Overall, I really really love this palette. It's definitely one of my new favorites and I am so happy I picked it up. I would definitely recommend it to anyone that's a fan of beautiful neutral shades, or just someone who loves makeup in general. I really think it's one of the best palettes I own, which is saying something because I own a LOT. I love how versatile it is, you can create a simple eye look or a dramatic one. If you have had your eye on this palette I definitely suggest picking it up!

  5. I love that palette! Been seeing at Sephora lately and I wonder how long it'll take me to accidentally get my hands on it... haha I love that it smells like chocolate - actually, while talking to one of the girls at the counter the other day, she said it also TASTED like chocolate. I obviously thought it was a joke so I said, "Yeah, I wonder who's been the smart soul who's licked it" and the poor girl was like "...I have" It was sooo awkward haha but yeah apparently it tastes like chocolate too if you wanna try that! ;)
