Hello my lovelies! Today I'll be reviewing Too Faced Chocolate Soleil bronzer... again. Why again? Because I've reviewed it before, only the first time I was reviewing the 'original' and now I'll be reviewing the same product in the shade called Milk Chocolate. It is a lighter version of the original - a bronzer suited for even the palest of girls. :)
Sooo... The original Chocolate Soleil didn't really work out for me. It was gorgeous but it was just too dark for me. I needed to be really, really careful with it and apply just the tinniest amount and then blend the heck out of it, so I wouldn't end up looking like a Jersey Shore girl. It just wasn't a pleasure to use, because I was always worried how it would turn out, so I ended up giving it away. :)
Fortunately I discovered BeautyBay this year and the first thing I saw was that they carried Too Faced (I think I squealed a little at that point). I immediately browsed around and found Chocolate Soleil, but was surprised when I saw there were two shades to choose from - the original one and a lighter shade. I checked out some reviews (which were all very positive) and decided to get it.

I've been using it for over 3 months now and I absolutely love it. It's just the perfect shade for me. It's a light brown color that doesn't look orange or muddy when applied. It's great for bronzing up the skin or for contouring. Even though it's a totally matte color, it does give a very subtle sheen to the skin, if you look close enough (as you can hopefully see in the swatches bellow). And the scent... well, I just love anything that smells like chocolate, so you can imagine how much I love this. :) But for all of you who don't like the scent or don't like scented makeup period, I can tell you that the scent does not linger on your face.
I would say the only thing I dislike or don't particularly like about this product, is the packaging. I much prefer the older packaging, it looked better and it felt better (like it was of better quality). I mean, it's not like this new packaging is bad, it just fells a bit cheaper than the older one. It still shuts securely and doesn't open easily.
What's the price tag, I hear you ask? Well, like most Too Faced products, it's up there - I got it for 27.70 €, but currently you'll be paying 30.60 € for it on BeautyBay.
