Too Faced A La Mode Eye Palette For Summer 2014

I was able to grab the new Too Faced A La Mode palette and just wanted to share some pictures and swatches!


I bought it at Ulta for $36, but they have it online as well HERE.

More photos after the break! Check it out!






It comes in the tin packaging they've been doing recently, similar size to their other eye palettes.





Top Row: St. Tropez, Cannes, and Soleil
Middle Row: Riviera, Jardin, and Côte d'Azur
Bottom Row: La Croisette, Monaco, and De La Mer


St. Tropez is a light beige with gold sparkles, it's a little chalky and tough to work with. Cannes is a coppery shimmer with copper sparkles, it's chalky as well and you have to be careful of sparkle fallout. Soleil is a warm shimmery brown, it's creamy and buttery and has great pigmentation.


Riviera is a shimmery peach-champagne color that's really easy to work with, pigmented and creamy. Jardin is a pink-coral with golden shimmer, it's a little chalky and took a few different swipes to get enough pigment. Côte d'Azur is a shimmery brown-taupe that has great pigment, creamy and buttery.


La Croisette is a shimmery light color that's great for highlighting, it's well pigmented and has a nice creamy texture. Monaco is a bright, shimmery and cool magenta that's super pigmented and creamy. De La Mer is a dark navy with navy sparkles, it was a little hard to work with and took a few swipes to get the pigment I wanted. 

The palette also comes with Get The Look cards, with three different looks.




All in all, I'm pleased with this palette and can't wait to make some new summery looks if it would ever stop snowing. The easiest colors to work with are Soleil, Riviera, Côte d'Azur, La Croissette and Monaco. I really love Monaco, it's so pretty! The more difficult colors are the ones with sparkle, which is pretty typical. Great overall, so glad I picked it up!
