The Too Faced Boudoir Eyes is in no way new but these tiny palettes have intrigued me for far too long for me to never try them. This is the first out of the tiny palettes that I tried and one of 4 palettes that I got recently. (Lorac Unzipped Palette review is already up and two are to come) That being said this is by far my favorite out of the lot.
All products are cruelty free.
The container is small but a metal material. Think something like the Naked 2 & 3 palettes from Urban Decay. However, this in no way feels as though it closes as secure as the others. It hasn't opened on me yet though.
The palette comes with 9 shadows and a mirror. The palette is fairly small so don't expect that big of a mirror. It also comes with a set of instructions on how to make a look using the three suggested color combinations.
Day:
In the Buff
In the buff is a matte white/slightly off white color. It's buttery and pigmented, and looks as though it contains a sheen/satin finish in the palette but comes off matte on my eyes.
Fuzzy Handcuffs
Fuzzy handcuffs comes off white a slight shimmer and is a champagne color. It's a very neutral light color that can be used for a simple nude look. Think my eyes but better.
Voulez-Vous
This is a lovely color, in fact it's my favorite color. It's a purple satin with a slight golden dou-chrome finish. It can be used as an all over lid color for a more smokey look or as a crease color for a soft definition that is really interesting considering it's not a brown but a purple.
Classic:
Satin Sheets
Satin sheets isn't shimmery but more of a pearl color in every sense of the word. It has a sheen that catches the light perfectly and came off a little more golden than it really is in person. In my opinion it's too shiny for a highlight but really nice for a simple all over lid color, that doesn't look simple at all.
Sugar Walls
Sugar walls is a complicated color, it looks exactly as it does in the swatch. It has a hint of lavender and gold pearly finish and is gorgeous.
Garter Belt
Garter belt is your final matte shade. It's a matte light grey color that blends like a dream. I recently got into the habit of blending out my smokey eye looks with a brown and a grey color and this shade is perfect. It doesn't take away from the intensity of colors and doesn't add too much more harshness to any look. It's amazing.
Fashion:
Birthday Suit
Birthday suit is a pearly champagne shade that is simple but I think is still too much for a highlight. ( I prefer matte shades for my brow bone)
Lap Dance
Lap dance is a grey-ish hint of lavender pearl finish.
French Tickler
French Tickler is a black with golden glitter. This is the only shade with glitter in it and if I had to make a bet I'm pretty sure it's really similar to the black shade in the Wet n Wild Color Icon Trio in Silent Treatment. It comes off as matte unless you pack it on intensely enough, which I don't. I use it in the corner of the crease and blend it to make a darker look. It's super blendable but pigmented so be careful.
Overall, I love this palette. It was my favorite that I bought/was given for valentines day. I'm super excited to try more of them if they are of the same quality as this tiny palette. If you are interested in any of these colors (I'd say multiple colors) then give it a go, the quality is fantastic.
