The one eyeshadow I feel deserve a big shout out is this Chocolate Bar palette. I am just so in love with it. Not only it is the palette I used the most, it is also the one thing I buy without waiting for a sale. Usually when I shop, I buy things on impulse. If not, it will be a sale that drives me to purchase the stuff. So this is not an impulse purchase, that's why I treasured it so much.
I do wish the palette is a bit thinner, but that is my only complain about it.
Just look at the design - a chocolate bar - you'll love it already. Next, the scent. Mama Mia, it smells like chocolate. Well like cocoa powder, but it smells so yummy. The colors are neutral with a couple shades for a pop of color. There are a blend of matte and shimmer. Pigmentation is good. Shadows smooth to the touch, easy to blend and overall a good quality product.
I bought this for $69 at Sephora. I like the outer packaging, which is the only cardboard box I kept ever. It also comes with 3 how-to which is nice. The palette itself has a magnetic closure. There are 16 eyeshadows that are good for daily or smokey eyes. The names of each shadow correspond with chocolate, so adorable.
Gilded Ganache - dark khaki with gold glitters
White Chocolate - matte light skin tone color, like a powder
Milk Chocolate - matte light brown, like a bronzer shade
Black Forest truffle - dark brown with a hint of lilac pink and magenta and glitters.
Triple Fudge - matte dark brown
Salted Caramel - matte tan color
Marzipan - shimmery metallic creamy neutral slight pinkish thingy (my fav all over lid color)
Semi-Sweet - matte mid tone brown
Strawberry Bon Bon - matte soft pink (love it, but can't see the pink on my lid)
Candied Violet - purple with magenta glitter
Amaretto - metallic reddish golden bronze
Hazelnut - shimmery dark brown (my daily outer v color)
Creme Brûlée - metallic gold
Haute Chocolate - shimmery redder tone brown
Cherry Cordial - dark, purple, red tone brown tone, burgundy, slight glitter
Champagne Truffle - shimmery light pinkish color
Those are how I would describe each shade once swatch on my hand. I don't think it is right, but that's how it appear to me.
If I break this or it got stolen, I wouldn't repurchase it again. Yes I love it, but I wouldn't buy it as there are just so many palettes in the market. I will want to try others. However I will gladly take it if it is gifted to me.
