Radiant Glow or Edward Cullen Sparkle?

Generally I'm a huge fan of Too Faced as a brand. They always seem to provide beautiful products with gorgeous packaging that I'm always happy to see sitting on my vanity.

This particular product comes in a thick, cardboard tin which doesn't bother me, it looks appealing and protects the contents but sat on top on the inside is a plain white piece of foam which isn't pretty at all. (for the cost I'd expect at least a print of the logo or something on it, even a simple little ribbon bow)

The product itself is very disappointing, I don't expect the container to be overflowing but one measly layer of beads/40 tiny hearts just doesn't cut it for $40+. I truly expected there to be more product, you can see the bottom of the container clearly through the layer and the foam slip in the top to protect them takes up more space!

The beads themselves are pigmented but it takes a bit of work to pick up the product without just leaving a big mess in the container and little on the brush. I'm not too keen on the size of the shimmer particles either, there is a fair bit that is just too big and leaves me feeling Edward Cullen-esque which isn't a good look.

Would I use it again? yes, I will use it as a highlight but only because I paid so much for it. I wouldn't purchase it again though!

Great honest review! I'm not a fan of over the top sparkle, so will give this one a miss I think.

I don't heart the beads!

I brought this as a website was having a sale on a Too Faced products. This looked interesting! It was summer coming up and some bronzer sounded perfect.

The round box is kinda cute. It's thick cardboard with a metal edge. It's hard to open the lid off which is good for travel.

Inside is a foam space filler sponge thing. Take that out and there is a layer of heart beads. They look super cute. 3 different colours of them. You can see there isn't much product right away and your heart sinks at the cost. Oh well...

So I get my brush and swish it around and apply. It's near in impossible to get a good amount picked in on the brush. I have a couple of different branded brushes and tried both. The hearts get inside the brush then when you lift it out to apply I always seem to loose a heart on floor!!! I have been trying for ages (everyday) to figure out the best option.

I figured out since they are kind of wet, it's hard to pick up a powder.... I better explain. You think of a dry bronzer being loose powder. These seem to be stuck together with a moisture of a creamy texture. I can pick a heart up and draw on my face or hand with it and a moisture feel is left behind with the dust.

So I decided to crush a few of the hearts. This hasn't really helped the situation either! I will keep using just to use it up. I won't buy again.

I have used the ivory looking heart, using my fingers and drawing under my eyes to try hide the blackness that shows up sometimes, it helped this fade away a bit.

I was disappointed with this product too! Boo hoo! Try a smaller brush toots, I found a big brush gave a weak colour pay off. A small more densely packed brush is what you are after :) Do you have RT setting brush? It works perfectly :) xxx

Conflicted feelings

I am a huge fan of the Guerlain Meteorites and the heart shaped little balls of blush/bronzer/highlight appealed hugely to my inner princess. It's cheaper than the meteorites and isn't as much of a highend brand, so naturally I expected a little less. I love the pretty outer packaging and the cute little 3D hearts, it's so pretty I almost don't want to use it up. The foam sponge thing however looks cheapo like something you'd see stuffed in a shipping container. I threw that out and replaced it with a fluffy puff that I bought. As far as I can tell all the beads have some shimmer to them, with some more than others. This makes it a little unsuitable to use as a bronzer as I don't really like my contouring to be shimmery. If this had two color options maybe (like highlight with lighter beads and bronze with just dark beads) then maybe I'd be a bit more keen. Instead this works like those overall glow powders. It does pick up easily using the real techniques blush brush and distributes evenly on my face. But the finish just isn't my thing. Another thing I'm a little disappointed about is the number (literally countable) of beads you get. This is nothing like the meteorites where you have the container almost packed with layers of balls. This has just one measly layer and looks sadly sparse. Luckily though this doesn't seem to get used up very quickly, and the hearts still look the same size as they did when I first bought it. I still love it and occasionally use it but I wouldn't buy another one, especially not at full price.

Horrible :(

The packaging is so cute and the little heart beads are adorable. That unfortunately is where the pros end. I appreciate they were trying to make an affordable meteorites type of product but it literally did nothing. When you used a brush it looked like nothing was put on. Totally useless. If you physically grabbed a bead and applied it would show up a little bit but no one really would want to do that. Huge fail
