I got another makeup tutorial look using Too Faced Chocolate Bar for you. These looks are so fun to make as I do very little planning ahead of time. I drum these looks either the night before or 5-10 minutes before I put on makeup. For this particular look, I only had one specific goal which was to use all the colors that are visibly more purple/red in the palette and my Dark Plum neutral look resulted. :)
Eyeshadows used for this look:
- Too Faced Chocolate Bar
- MAC Charcoal Eyeshadow
Step 1
After primer, apply Strawberry Bon Bon (light matte pink) all over lids including just under your brow bone.
Step 2
Using a different eyeshadow brush from Step 2, apply Cherry Cordial from lashline to center of your lids.
Step 3
Overlay some Amaretto (dark shimmery plum) ontop of Cherry Cordial from lashline to center of the lids.
Step 4
Use your favorite outer v forming brush and work Black Forest Truffle (dark glittery purple) onto your lids. For me it's either my trusty small dome-shaped soft brush or my smudge brush. I used the soft dome-shaped brush here. Work halfway from your lashline all the way into the corners of your outer v and all the way to about the middle of your crease.
Step 5
Run your crease brush across your crease until your top outer v is nicely blended with Cherry Cordial, Amaretto, and of course Black Forest Truffle.
Step 6
Using a regular eyeshadow brush, lightly dab some Marzipan (shimmery pink gold) onto the upper parts of your lid (avoid lashline and center of lids). The look was turning to be a little monotone from afar so I wanted to bring some more light to the eye using pretty Marzipan. Instantly, it made the look from kinda meh to sexy!
Tip: Mazipan is very soft and you get a lot on your brush by even dabbing it lightly onto the palette. Start with light touches and layer the product on as needed.
Step 7
Draw a medium-thickness eyeliner using gel or liquid onto your lashline and extend the line just a little bit past the corners of your eyes like you see above.
Step 8
I was going out with this look and wanted it to be a tad darker on the outer corners of my eye so I dabbed some MAC Carbon starting from my lower lashline and blending it into the inner part of my outer v area. I only applied a little bit of this because I wanted the overall look to be purply red-brown tone.
Step 9
Once again with my trusty smudge brush, I lined Cherry Cordial to about halfway on my lower lashline.
Throw on your favorite mascara and the look is complete.
So far, so fun with Too Faced Chocolate Bar. For the next look, I'll try one of the tutorials that came with the palette.
If you've missed it, you can find my first Too Faced Chocolate Bar look here. You will notice that the looks are somewhat similar and I have to admit, part of that is my camera. It's a decent point-and-shoot but it doesn't capture nearly all the color information we can see with our human eyes. That bums me out a bit. I am hoping to upgrade soon. The other part of the similarity comes from the palette itself. The palette has neutral colors in the range from light brown to dark brown, red-browns, gold and one-off colors like Strawberry Bon Bon and Candied Violet. When you work multiple colors into a look, you're going to run into similar color tones. This is both the strength and weakness of the palette. You won't run out of combinations and ways to put together the neutrals but the variations of very distinct looks are going to be limited if that makes sense.
Anyhow, I digress. Full review on the Choco Bar to follow so we'll talk about that there. In the meantime, enjoy Dark Plum!
