Review: Too Faced Pretty Rebel Palette




The Too Faced Pretty Rebel palette, part of the Fall 2013 collection has the most sexiest packaging I've ever seen. It caught my eye as soon as i walked in Mecca and once i picked it up it's like BAM. nuff said, it's coming home with me ;) It looks so punk yet girly at the same time cos of the pink. It has a magnetic closure which is my personal favourite and feels sturdy.

It contains 10 shades which include matte, satin, metallic and shimmer. It comes with a large mirror also YAYYY! The texture of the shadows are smooth but nothing to die for. The names of these shadows are pretty cool though, it makes me feel like such a badasss. Just me? 


It feels like too faced has added a little something to their ingredients for eyeshadows or some shit. These are like smoother, more opaque and feel/look too good for them (no offense here). THIS IS A COMPLIMENT OKAY.

Moving on...

The shades are extremely EXTREMELY pigmented. i was actually intimidated a bit when i swatched them because they were THAT rich in colour. On the left there is a quad of neutrals that i always end up using, and the rest of the 6 are WOW in your face colours. It's defenitely a good palette for peeps that want to start experimenting with colour. There really is nothing negative about this palette, besides the fact that the matte brown feels sorta dry and chalky when swatched, but all matte's are like that so it doesn't count?

The palette also comes with a usual guide thing for ideas and inspiration :)


Swatches hereeee



Review of the shades:

Dainty - a matte pale pink beige that's used for highlight/blending/taking down excess shimmer. Not a bad shade to have around. It feels extremely buttery and smooth when swatched

Charming - The darkest brown of the palette. It's warm and also has a matte finish. Wouldn't recommend picking up a lot of product at once with this as it seems to have fallout.

Girly - OHMYFKENGOD. The most BEAUTIFULL duo chrome shade. It's so fantastic. Feels so smoooth and silky. It's a warm brownish metallic satin shade with a green duo chrome and a hint of copper. A dupe for MAC's club.

Totally Fetch - An intense bright fuchsia that has cool undertones. There is a satin finish to this and the colour payoff isn't as intense as the rest of the shadows but still nice :3

Miss Sparkles - an epic shimmery black. When i saw this i was like 'this better not be chunky' ANDD its not. It looks so beautiful when you move but i realised that the silver 'sparkle' fades after a while. The texture is slightly powdery which isn't completely a bad thing since it'll be easier to blend out and GIRLL, blacks need to be blended ok.

Ringleader - A warm medium peach shade. Super buttery and smooth with a pearly finish. Needless to say, the colour payoff is fantastic.

Gangsta - My favourite out of the neutrals in this palette. its a warm bronze with copper undertones and is absolutely beautiful for a neutral. It's buttery and pigmented and I wear it alone even cos its that nice.

Instigator - Do you have a favourite gold shadow already? Well, if you do, that's about to change. When i swatched this it was like I've never seen a gold shadow in my whole life. ITS FRIGGEN AMAZING. It swatches the most smoothest and most even and most prettiest. It's more of a yellow-y gold that's so shiny and has a metallic finish.

Badass - I LOVE THIS. It's a medium navy colour blue that's so shimmery. To add to the shimmery-ness it has a metallic finish giving extra shine. It's a build-able colour with silver sparkles.

Jailbird - I've never seen such a metallic silver in my whole life. It's a cool tone shade that's epic pigmented. One word. Incredible.

This palette is a must have for EVERYONE. The shadows are all breathtaking and feel so smooth. If your a noob, pro, hoarder, don't really give two shits bout makeup. STILL GEDDIT K?! can thank me later ;) xoxoxoxoxoxo
