Right in time for the spring blooms and warmer weather, Too Faced has a stunning 30-shade neutral eyeshadow collection called the Natural Love Ultimate Neutral Eye Palette ($69 CAD). With 13 iconic shades and 17 never-before-seen neutrals, the palette is an absolute dream for any makeup lover. To see some swatches and read my review of the formulation, click......
Packaging:
Housed in a large but slim cardboard packaging printed with gorgeous hand-drawn illustrations of flowers, bunnies, and birds, the Natural Love Ultimate Neutral Eye Palette includes 30 eyeshadow shades weighing at 0.8g each. The palette includes a large mirror and the lid features some fuzzy flocking details that add a little extra cuteness to the packaging. I would have preferred a metal or plastic compact but I can see how that can get quite bulky for a 30-shade palette.
Formulation:
With 13 pre-existing shades from previous Too Faced palettes and 17 brand new colors, the Natural Love Ultimate Neutral Eye Palette offers up a very nice range of pinks, peaches, and browns. In terms of the overall quality, the palette is pretty nice! The majority of the mattes is soft and creamy while the shimmers are pigmented and buttery smooth. However, a few of the sparkles and darker colors are a bit chalky or fallout-prone. See below for a full breakdown.
If you already own a lot of Too Faced palettes or neutral palettes from other brands, then the Natural Love Palette is probably not a necessity. Also, a few of the shades (the browns, in particular), are quite repetitive, making me wish that Too Faced was a bit more creative with the colors. However, if you like the color selection like I do, then this palette is still a worthy investment!
Heaven: From the original 2009 Natural Eye Palette and also released as part of the 2013 Natural Eyes Palette and the 2015 Natural Matte Eye Palette (reviewed here), Heaven is a matte soft cream that's perfect for prepping the lid for additional colors. The pigmentation is semi-sheer but the texture is creamy and silky.
Lace Teddy: Originally released as part of the Natural Matte Eye Palette, Lace Teddy is a pretty cream peach nude. The formulation is well pigmented and silky smooth.
Pink Cheeks: This is a soft satin ivory pink. The formulation is semi-sheer but creamy.
Poodle: A shimmery bright white with a hint of pink, Poodle is very pigmented and buttery.
Spotlight: From the 2011 Natural at Night Eye Palette, Spotlight is a soft banana yellow cream with a matte finish. The pigmentation is okay but the color works great as a blending shade.
Fairy Tale: A soft pale gold champagne sparkle, Fairy Tale is quite chunky and fallout-prone.
Satin Sheets: A classic from the Chocolate Bon Bon Palette (reviewed here) and the Holiday 2015 Le Grand Palais Palette (reviewed here), Satin Sheets is a soft pink shimmer with a pale gold sheen. The formulation is very buttery and pigmented.
Kittens: This is a soft lavender-pink shimmer. The formulation is pigmented and creamy.
Cutie Patootie: This is a warm rose-peach shimmer. The formulation is pigmented and buttery but there is a bit of fallout.
Honey Butter: A gorgeous matte originally released in the Natural Matte Eye Palette from 2015, Honey Butter is a matte peachy tan. Although the shade isn't super pigmented, the formulation is smooth, creamy, and even.
Nudie: Also part of the Natural Matte Eye Palette, Nudie is a soft taupe chocolate brown matte with a pigmented and smooth formulation.
Push-Up: From the original Natural Eye Palette and the Natural Eyes Palette, Push-Up is a creamy and rich soft brown.
Bunny Nose: This is a soft cool pink with a shimmery finish. The formulation is pigmented and smooth.
Dear Diary: Pigmented and buttery, Dear Diary is a medium brown with a pretty golden sheen.
Honeymoon: A golden peach shimmer, Honeymoon is another rich and pigmented shade.
Tickle Me: A pale champagne brown, Tickle me is semi-sheer but nicely formulated.
Honey Pot: Another shade from the original Natural Eye Palette released in 2009, Honey Pot is a pale gold shimmer. The formulation is smooth and decently pigmented.
Moonbeam: This is a pale taupe champagne. The pigmentation is great and the texture is rich and buttery.
Coffee Date: This is a classic medium brown shimmer with a rich pigmentation and a smooth formulation.
Hot & Bothered: One of my faves out of the palette, Hot & Bothered is a burnt copper shimmer with a dash of soft golden sparkles. The formulation is rich, pigmented, and oh-so-creamy!
Don't Settle: A sparkly golden taupe, Don't Settle is very pigmented and smooth.
Chocolate Martini: From the Natural Eyes Palette from 2013, Chocolate Martini is a satin chocolate brown with sparse golden sparkles. The formulation feels slightly dry but the pigmentation is buildable.
Love Bug: Another fave of mine, Love Bug is a unique mauve-taupe with a rich and pigmented formulation.
Spoiled: A creamy milk chocolate, Spoiled is another lovely shimmer. The formulation is nice and buttery.
Makeup & Chill: This is a simple matte medium brown. The formulation feels a bit dry and patchy.
Fingers Crossed: This is a deep brown with sparse golden sparkles. The formulation is not very creamy and smooth but the pigmentation is okay.
Undercover: A dark plum brown, Undercover is sprinkled with a dash of purple sparkles. Again, the formulation is not as buttery as I'd like but the pigmentation is decent.
Smokin': A gorgeous pale taupe-gold, Smokin' swatches a lot lighter than it appears in the pan. Nevertheless, the formulation is buttery smooth and very pigmented.
Night Fever: Also from the 2011 Natural at Night Eye Palette, this is a medium brown with an intense mix of gold sparkles. The formulation is a little chalky but the color is buildable.
Stiletto: This is a classic matte black. It's not the best matte black I've tried but it's pretty smooth and pigmented.
