   This product is not suitable for anyone who’s not white. I am a pretty light tan (biracial but have been mistaken for white more than once) and it has virtually no effect on my face. I use it more as a tone evener than anything else. The packaging, while beautiful, is not durable at all. The letters start fading very quickly and the product within crumbles and breaks off very easily. I wasn’t able to try the blush because it broke off so fast. For someone who’s white the bronzer would probably work OK because it is buttery and blends easily, plus it has a good amount of warmth/shimmer.

   i am brutally HONEST. this product is awful. i don’t know how this is even being sold…. this “bronzer/blush” has the worst pigmentation in the world, especially the little heart blush. i LITERALLY will rub it with pressure and get the most sheer color ever. its crazy.and as a bronzer, it is a very orangey color. i have carrie and big. i wish i could return this.. the only cute thing about this is the packaging. please do yourself a favor and save yourself 30 bucks. spend it on something else.

   I’ll be 100% honest, they had me at the whole Soul Mates theme and them offering the shade “Carrie & Big” was just icing on the cake. ((like hello, who can’t relate to the mess of a relationship that is Carrie & Big?!))

   So the packaging, omg, it broke my heart to even through the box away it came in. Super adorable peach box with a Eiffel tower stamp, “Carrie and Big” written on the side…ughhh again so cute.

   The compact it self is generous in size (which is good because lets be honest $34 for a blush/bronzer due is a little much), its thin, so it doesn’t take up to much space. Its black with Too Faced written in gold on the top. When you open it there is a huge mirror and the product itself, which is beautiful in the pan.

   I wish there was more blush, because it is a beautiful shade and they only give a little bit, and you really need a smaller blush brush unless you dont mind picking up a bit of the bronzer(i use ELF small stipple brush, its perfect size for this). I find the blush to be very pigmented, its a pretty peachy pink shade (more peach than pink) The bronzer is a shimmer gold (not orange, gold) Its very light, and you really need to dig a bit in the pan to get some product.

   I’m heavy handed so i dont mind this being a sheery bronzer. Its perfect for when i’m not tan. It gives such a beautiful glow. I used this all weekend while at the pool (no foundation just the bronzer/blush and a highlighter) and i looked stunning in picutres.

   I love this so much i’m thinking of splurging on Ross and Rachel =)

   Sun kissed peach/light golden bronzey beige shade. It doesn’t have any glitter but it has a really nice golden sheen. Very nice for warm skin! Blends like a dream and lasts all day. The compact is adorable and the soul mates theme is so fun!

   This is so gorgeous and cute … to look at 🙂
   I’m going to return it because it doesn’t work on my NC20 skin at all …maybe I’m too yellow?!
   It doesn’t really show, it’s very light and if I try to build it up it looks ORANGE …not a good look on me :))
   It may work on someone with neutral lighter skin…

   This is BEAUTIFUL, but not what I was expecting, I bought the shade Carrie & Big on-line. I assumed it would be a medium bronze shade with a hint of peach. I have light-medium skin (NC30ish) and this is a very light wash of color on me. It wears more like the Hourglass Ambient Lighting Powders to me, rather than a bronzer. If you have darker skin than mine you may want to skip this or swatch it in store before buying it. It looks very similar to the Hourglass Ambient Lighting Powder in the shade Raidiant Light which comes in the trio palette. Carrie & Big is a tad more peach when blended out, but they’re very similar. If you own the Hourglass palette you may want to skip this or get the shade Ross & Rachel (pink toned). Just to reiterate, these are for light to light-medium skins.I have no regrets buying this though it’s beautiful and sentimental, I picked it up with the Valentines Day gift card my husband gave me.If your a collector of cute packaging this is up there with the best of them. I’ll have a review up on my blog soon dizzynicky.wordpress.com. There are pictures on my Instagram @DizzyNicky.
