I know what you're thinking.... Wait... don't I already own that palette? Actually, I'm on my second one?? (Wait, I might be the only one that is wondering that last question. And yes, I'm on my second one.)
Boudoir Eye Palette
In the Buff, Fuzzy Handcuffs, Voulez-Vous
Satin Sheets, Sugar Walls, Garter Belt
Birthday Suit, Lap Dance, French Tickler
Naked Eye Palette
In the Buff, Pillow Talk, Like a Virgin
Birthday Suit, Satin Sheets, Unmentionables
Pink Cheeks, Lap Dance, Stilleto
So, looking at the shadow swatches from the Boudoir Palette, I think you'll see it's definitely neutral, but easily a bit sultry. It includes one of my favorite shadows of all time (Birthday Suit. See how I've hit pan on it in the Naked Palette? That's the reason I'm on Naked Palette #2). But, I also really love a few of the other shades here. Lap Dance is amazing (it's in both), Sugar Walls and Garter Belt are super pretty together as a duo, and I think the change from Stilleto to French Tickler is a big upgrade. (I didn't really ever use the matte black of Stilleto. French Tickler is really nice to add over a black liner for some fun and depth.)
If I was going to pick one of the palettes I'd go with Boudoir, but I think enough of my staples appear in both palettes that I am really loving having the options of both.

So pretty! I'm a sucker for these palettes. An ulta trip is definitely in order.
ReplyDeleteI love Too Faced! I wish I could wear more of their products.. Anything that touches skin that isn't my eyelids gets red and itchy. Does anyone else have this problem or is it just me?
ReplyDeleteI have this palette as well. I've only used it once though. Sometimes eye palettes overwhelm me! I know I will warm up to it, just like I did with my Naked palettes!
ReplyDeleteLove the eye you did. I might try that first.
Beautiful review and palette. I get a lot of use out of my Boudoir Eye palette.
ReplyDeleteI haven't had that issue with them, it sounds like an allergy to me. :(
ReplyDeleteFirst, you look AMAZING, your eyes are beautiful. I agree with Heather, Too Faced is goood. I have already ordered it :)
ReplyDeleteThanks Jenn! I'm blessed with big giant eyes, but the lashes (thanks to Revitalash) help a lot!
ReplyDeleteThanks Christine, I've never had a problem with any other makeup before except them. I guess I need to research what is in their products my skin hates. So sad because I love the whole face palettes to. I have the nearly naked one I can't even wear :(
ReplyDeleteI have a question! Is it really OK to put eyeliner on the inner rim of the lower lid? it just seems not safe to me for some reason...
ReplyDeleteYou look like Tina Fey on a great day!! Just darling- thanks for this post as I am a fan of Too Faced and have been curious about this palette. Love it!! No surprise ... xoxo Beth in Pgh ;-)
ReplyDelete@Heather That definitely sucks. :( There must be something in there that your skin hates, I hope you figure it out!!
ReplyDelete@Lori- As far as I know it's fine, with a few things kept in mind:
1) Make sure if you have any sort of infection brewing that you throw out all of your eye makeup (liners!! Don't just sharpen them, you'll get that crap in your sharpener too)
2) Make sure you completely remove it at night. The liners obviously have waxes and such in them that can clog pores and cause issues. Good remover is essential.
@lizzy- I've been getting the Tina Fey comment a LOT since going darker with my hair! I'm definitely taking it as a compliment, thanks!
I LOVE my Boudoir pallet. I use Sugar walls on the lid,lap dance on the outer corner of the lid, voulez-vous in the crease, fuzzy handcuffs to blend out the crease and transition up to the brow, then add some satin sheets to the tear duct and brow bone areas. Finish off with lining the lash line with french tickler and smudge some voulez vouz on the lower lash line... beautiful!
ReplyDeletethanks for this great review..i couldn't make up my mind of which palette to buy and now i know. :)
