Too-Faced Peanut Butter & Honey Eyeshadow Palette: Honey Buns Look

Hey Gorgeous People,

Finished Look

It's the final one! Well ... probably not, but this is the last post on the suggested eyeshadow looks in the Too-Faced Peanut Butter & Honey palette. I'll play around with this palette a little more hopefully, but you can see those photos on my Instagram at @immyminette. So let's get on with it shall we.

Firstly, I press Creamed Honey from lashes to brow bone and blend Honey Buns into my crease.



Next, I smoke Going Nuts into the inner and outer lid. I think if I re-do this look, I need to be a bit more careful in this step because it does look a bit messy.



Lastly, it says to press Bee's Knees into the centre of the eyelid and the lower lash line.



And that's the last one! I feel like my lashes got completely lost in this look so maybe I need to invest in some false lashes. If you have any good recommendations for false lashes, please comment below!

What's your opinion on this look? xx

Too-Faced Peanut Butter & Honey Eyeshadow Palette: PB & H Look

Hey Gorgeous People,

Finished Look

The other day I posted the first suggested look from the Too-Faced PB & H palette, so today I thought I would show you the second! I'm still tossing up which one of the looks is my favourite because the more I look at them, the more I like them.

To begin, I press Queen Bee from my brown bone to my crease and then blend Honey Brittle into the crease.

I then press Honey Buns onto the inner lid. I really wish that this yellow shade was more pigmented because I am currently obsessed with orange and yellow eyeshadows!


Next, I smoke Peanut Butter into the outer crease and outer lid. I am obsessed with this shade! It is probably my favourite shade from this palette and I can't wait to try it out with a bunch of other shades.




















Lastly, it says to create a winged liner using Going Nuts and an eyeliner brush. I didn't like this step at all. If I'm going to do a winged liner for an makeup look, I like it to be very crisp and sharp. Using a powder and eyeliner brush made it look really smoky. In the future, if I was going to do a look like this, I would just use a small fluffy brush and smoke Going Nuts into the outer V of my eyes and into the lower lash line.



If the leaflet in the palette didn't say to do a winged liner with Going Nuts, this would be my favourite suggested look from the palette. It is easily adapted for day and night!

Too-Faced Peanut Butter & Honey Palette: Feeling Nutty Look

Hey Gorgeous People,

Finished Look

The other week I wrote a review on the Peanut Butter & Honey eyeshadow palette by Too-Faced and I mentioned that the palette came with three suggested eyeshadow looks. The first one is called Feeling Nutty and I thought I would show you how it looks!

I start of with just a little bit of base makeup on and my eyebrows filled in.

Firstly, I appled Bee Sweet from my lash line to my brow for a base to make blending the shadows easier.


Secondly, I blend Feelin' Nutty into the crease and blend it into my lower lash line for a smokier effect. Feelin' Nutty is probably one of my favourite shades from this palette mainly because it is really easy to work with and has great pigment.




















Lastly, I press Honey Brittle onto my lid. This shade isn't one of my favourites because it just lacks the pigment that some of the others do. I didn't mind it too much in this look but I didn't think it was the right colour for this eyeshadow look.



I swiped on some Maybelline Great Lash mascara and it made the eyeshadow look more polished and finished.


I think what I love about this suggested eyeshadow look from the palette is that it is really simple and easy. You don't have to use a million different eyeshadows and brushes! Also, with spring coming, I think it is a really nice, bright look to just throw on in the morning. And you can even make it more dramatic by adding winged eyeliner or smoking Going nuts out into the outer V of your eyelid and down into the lower lash line.

BH Cosmetics Palette Review

Hey Gorgeous People,

So, the other week I was shopping on Beauty Bay and came across this really beautiful, natural eyeshadow palette by BH Cosmetics. I thought I would give it a go, because it was on sale, and I went ahead and bought it. So I thought I would review it for you.

So, firstly I must talk about the shipping. Now I am not entirely sure where it came from but I am pretty sure it was from the UK and I chose the 7-10 day shipping. Now this didn't matter too much because it wasn't like I was on a time crunch and needed the palette in 10 days but it was 5 days late and that was a little bit annoying just because I was stressing about buying online and then it was late and I just went into full anxious mode. But it did arrive on the 15th day and I can understand why. The size of the box was huge compared to the size of the palette. Thank you Beauty Bay for using some much bubble wrap and cushioning to make sure the palette got to me safe!

So the first photo is the palette in its own little box/sleeve/thing. I think it's pretty ordinary packaging but, again, it didn't really phase me because it's just packaging. The palette is made out of plastic with an opaque plastic lid so you can see the palette itself. Now onto the actual product.

For $20, I wasn't expecting anything too crazy but I wasn't expecting this. When I tried swatching the colours on my wrist with a brush, the colours seemed not very pigmented and I must say I was a little disappointed. But when I swatched them using a finger, the colours were quite pigmented. I don't really enjoy using my finger to do my eyeshadow but I will keep trying different methods to see which works best.

Now I really like the colours in this palette. I've been looking for a natural eyeshadow palette for quite a while now and I'm glad I stumbled across this one. The product, I have found, is also more pigmented if you use it on top of foundation or concealer so I couldn't use it on just a powdered face, which is a bit of a let down because I like to enhance the crease of my eye  and have a bit of eyeliner on but not wear foundation.

Another let down is that some of the colours are quite hard to blend and do take a lot of time. But I don't mind too much because I usually spend quite a while doing my makeup that a little bit more time blending won't matter too much.

Even though there are some let downs with the product, I think it is a good price and I am quite happy with it. I would recommend it.

If you have bought anything by BH Cosmetics, I would love to hear about it!
I also will post some photos soon with some eyeshadow looks using this palette if you would like them.
