Review: Too Faced Chocolate Bar Palette

Yes, its true. It does truly smell like chocolate. But that's just the underlying amazing plus to this palette. I have used this palette almost every single day since I got it. The shimmers are so pigmented that they last all day, and the mattes are smooth and they blend together perfectly. The palette contains 16 shadows, and 2 of those shadows are twice the size of the others. Those shadows are the basic matte highlight (White Chocolate) and a shimmer highlight (Champagne Truffle). This palette is a perfect mix of versatility and risk. If anything the only shadow that doesn't belong in the palette is the matte pink (Strawberry Bon Bon). Its barely pigmented but is very smooth. The shimmers are set up into different categories. 6 Soft, smooth & highly pigmented shimmers (Hazelnut, Crème Brulee, Haute Chocolate, Marzipan, Candied Violet, & Amaretto). Along with those are 2 ultra shimmers, with thicker glitter particles and more opaque pigments (Dilded Ganache & Black Forest Truffle). There's one shadow that is different than the others, Cherry Cordial, that is a mix of shimmer and matte. Weird. But its an amazing color without a doubt. As I mentioned before, the matte shades (Milk Chocolate, Triple Fudge, Semi-Sweet, Salted Caramel & Strawberry Bon Bon) mix together amazingly and are soft as butter. Overall this palette is an 9/10 on my Palette Rating Scale, the only fault being the Strawberry Bon Bon shade and the less pigmentation on Candied Violet.
