Look how cute it was packaged! all in baby pink (my favorite color.)

The lovely Erica also wrote me a little note! Thank you so much to Erica and Too Faced, I feel truly honored that you would let me review one of your fabulous products! (Yes, they were kind enough to send me this to review.)

Loving the packaging of The Bronzed & The Beautiful as well, so vintage! 

I thought the lesson cards were really cute & helpful.

The first thing I'm going to be reviewing is the Primed & Poreless Bronze Tint SPF 20

If you're having one of those "I'm 20 minutes late, my hair looks like I've been attacked by a grizzly bear & I have no time for makeup" days this is perfect, it literally only takes seconds to apply and blend in, it gives the same effect as bronzer, but with SPF & quicker! (however it wont fix your hair.)

It's not greasy whatsoever, and it has no shimmer. It's quite sheer, so those with fair skin will be able to use it, but you can also add another layer to build it up.

The powders

Chocolate Soleil (matte bronze) Sun Bunny (classic bronze) Powdered Sun (gold) Snow Bunny (mocha/pink)

Swatches

My favorites would have to be Chocolate Soleil, and Powdered Sun

Chocolate Soleil is the perfect matte bronzer, it's not extremely pigmented so you wont end up with way too much on your brush, but it's not overly sheer either.

I think it would work best on fair to medium skintones.

The best part? It smells like CHOCOLATE! 

Powdered Sun makes a lovely highlight, but it also makes a great eye shadow, and would be perfect for putting over matte shadows to add some shimmer.

I used Powdered Sun & the darker side of Sun Bunny to create this look

As for Snow Bunny, the lighter side would make a lovely eye shadow or highlight, the darker side could be used as a highlight if you have darker skin or a shimmery bronzer if you have very fair skin.

Both Sun Bunny colors make beautiful eye shadows, but of course you can use them as bronzer too.

Also a message to Too Faced, start selling the boxes you ship products in, they're gorgeous! 

Overall I recommend, if you have any additional questions feel free to ask & of course Too Faced don't test on animals.

I have these in Drama-rama, I'm Guilty, and Jailbait. They're available in 6 shades.

These are infused with Shadow Insurance, I haven't tried Too Faced Shadow Insurance by itself, but I have tried Urban Decay Primer Potion, I don't have a problem with creasing when using these, but keep in mind that I do have dry skin, so if you have oily skin these may very well crease on you.

All of the colors I have are shimmery, you only need a small amount.

Top to bottom 

Drama-rama a dark brown with gold & bronze shimmer, I'm Guilty aqua blue with blue shimmer, Jailbait light pink with silver shimmer

My only complaints with these are that they separate, and they fade somewhat throughout the day.

Overall I would recommend, they don't crease for me, they're nice colors, and Too Faced don't test on animals.
