Too Faced Everything Nice Set: Swatches and Comparisons

Howdy 

It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas, and it's just September! Plus we are in the middle of a heat wave here in California.

I got my hands on the Too Faced Everything Nice set exclusive at Sephora and wanted to share pictures and swatches right away. I will also be doing looks as soon as I can.

The set is $56 at sephora.com and should be available in stores soon :) 

The set: 



You get 20 eye shadows 2 blushes, 1 bronzer, and 1 highlighter 


Shadow names from left to right: 
Row 1: Turtle Dove, Dream On, After Hors, Fawned of You, Knockout
Row 2: Paper Roses, Kindness is Free, Mauvelous, Be you, Secret Lovers
Row 3: Heaven, Shiny Happy, Honey Pot, Don't Settle, Girly
Row 4: Totally Fetch, Live it Up, Too Glam, Head Over Heels, Chocolate Moon

Blushes: Aweet Pink, Papa Don't Peach
Bronzer: Chocolate Soleil 
Highlighter: Inner Light 
Plus a super cute brush set, a mascara, and a look book :) 

The swatches: 


The first row: 
Turtle Dove is very light, Dream On is peachy and more noticeable on my skin tone, After Hours which has some glitter but is not chunky, Fawned of You is a nice matte brown great for the crease, Knockout is a matte dark brown, perfect for outer corner work

Second row: 
Paper Roses is a light pink with a sheen, Kindness is a bit darker of a pink, Mauvelous has glitter on it and is a gorgeous lilac shade, Be You is my favorite looking shade, it is a matte lavender shade, and Secret Lovers is a satin deep purple with a sheen 

Third Row:
Heaven is a matte white, Shinny Happy is a gold glitter shade but does not feel to chunky, Honey Pot is a peachy, caramel color with glitter, Don't Settle does not seem to have glitter but it's definetly shinny and has a nice sheen, Girly is a beautiful dual chrome with green and brown, this one is available in the Pretty Rebel palette and I know first hand it is a great shadow

Fourth Row:
Totally Fetch is also in the Pretty Rebel palette and it is a vibrant pink, Live it Up is a gorgeous purple shadow, the swatch was a bit powdery but that does not mean it will be powdery when applied to the eye, Too Glam is a vivid green, it has a sheen but looks almost matte, Head Over Heals is a shinny blue, and Chocolate Moon is a black with glitter in it but the glitter is not too noticeable. 

Top to botton face products: 
Sweet Pink, Papa Don't Peach, Inner Light, Chocolate Soleil 

Comparisons: 

Girly and Totally Fetch are definite repeats so that is something to note. At first impression this palette also look very similar to last-year's palette. This was my main concern when trying to decide if I wanted to purchase it. I did find some very similar colors but it is different enough for me to justify the purchase :) 

Taffy (from last year's palette) is also a light pink and is actually quite similar to Paper Roses though here it looks like Paper Roses has more glitter in it. 

At first I thought that Don't Settle was most similar to Crisp Apple Struddle but as you can see it is actually very much like Buche de Noel. 


Honey Pot and Honey Honey (last year's palette) are also very similar, though Honey Pot appears to be just a tad deeper. 

Now for the shinny colors: Shinny Happy is closest to Tinsel (from last year) than to Snowflakes (from last year) though I have to say that both Snowflakes and Tinsel were a bit hard to work with while Shinny Happy appears to be less chunky and easier to work with and blend. 

Now for the mattes: Heaven and Turtle Dove are both from this palette and swatched look identical and not close to Cream Colored Ponies (from last year). 


Overall thoughts: 

- I really had to have this set so I did not mind the similarities to last year's palette but if you are on a budget and have that palette, I would definitely pass on this one. 

- I just saw that there will also be a palette exclusive to Ulta and that one seems to be very similar to this one but smaller and cheeper so that one might be a good alternative to this one.

-Let me know if you have any questions. 

-Did anyone else order the set? What did you think of it? Or are you planning on getting it?
