Too Faced Peanut Butter & Jelly Eyeshadow Palette Review & Swatches

I purchased this item and I receive a small commission if you shop using the links in this post.

Too Faced Peanut Butter & Jelly Palette

The Too Faced Peanut Butter & Jelly Eye Shadow Collection or the Too Faced Peanut Butter & Jelly Eyeshadow Palette is a new Spring/Summer 2016 palette featuring 12 nine shades of eyeshadow inspired by peanut butter and jelly. Or technically, according too Faced, it’s inspired by the social media sensation that is Peanut Butter. I must be old, living under a rock, or not paying attention as I had no idea Peanut Butter was trending across social media.

Eh?

Whether a sensation on social media or not this cute palette was definitely appealing to me as I really love warmer shades of eyeshadow. I think the funny thing about the palette is the fact that it focuses more on peanut butter versus jelly as there are only two shades of purple in this palette. So if you like warmer shades you’ll likely adore this cute little palette but for those expecting more jelly or purple shades, well, it could be slightly disappointing.

Bath & Body Works Happy Easter Collection for Spring 2016

I receive a small commission if you shop through my link.

bath and body works happy easter

Bath & Body Works Happy Easter Hand Soap is now available for a limited time and yes, the rumors are true, it’s cotton candy scented.

Although the description reads, “an irresistible blend of powdered sugar & vanilla cream” which has me skeptical if it actually smells like cotton candy or just a sugary vanilla! Either way, I kinda want it.

This sure does make me think of the good old days at Bath & Body Works. The Hello Sugar! days, the Temptations days, the Dolci days. Nowadays, Bath & Body Works is pretty generic and they tend to stick to the same fragrances year after year after year with very few variations in the notes.

It’s a damn shame because I know they can do better.

But for now I’ll definitely be hauling a Happy Easter Hand Soap or two!

P.S. Don’t get about the Happy Easter Candle which is a blend of sparkling cotton candy, raspberries and fresh sugared cream!

You can grab the Bath & Body Works Happy Easter Hand Soap now in stores or online at www.bathandbodyworks.com.
