For those of you who are new to makeup, the Too Faced Naked Eye Shadow Collection is the perfect palette for you! It brings 9 shades that are coordinated in groups of 3 by row. Each group of 3 comes with a card with step by step instructions on how to use each color. The shadows are good quality and the colors are beautiful. Each look is targeted for a different purpose. The first look is a neutral day time look. The second is a more sophisticated, classical look for work or for a date. The third look is a daring smoking eye perfect for a wild night out. However, the colors all go well with each other, so you can mix and match however you like. I love coming up with new combinations; there are always more to discover!
"I first got this palette when I was entering the makeup world and it help me learn about different techniques and looks."
The only con to this palette is the formulation of the shadows; I was surprised of how powdery they were. There was a lot of fall-out as I applied my makeup (more fall-out than I was ever used to). My suggestion is always to tap the excess powder off your brush before you apply it to your lid. I don't always do this step with other eye shadows (MAC, Urban Decay, Covergirl) but I found it crucial when working with this palette.
You can purchase this palette at Sephora, Ulta, or www.toofaced.com for $36. It is a little pricey, but bear in mind that each individual Too Faced shadow costs $15-$18. If you do the math, this palette should come out to $135-$162, so you are saving around $99-$126!

Is is worth buying? Yes. In general, this is a good palette. It has great colors for many different uses. Plus, it is small and perfect for traveling. I would recommend it for beginners who are experimenting with makeup and would benefit from instruction cards. I first got this palette when I was entering the makeup world and it help me learn about different techniques and looks. I will definitely be re-purchasing this palette.
