Too Faced Sweet Indulgence Palette Dupes

Too Faced has a new collection coming out this month that caught my eye. It looks really nice, but I don't think I want to get it because I feel like I already have makeup duplicates of it. I only found one eyeshadow that I couldn't dupe. It is called "Nice Ash". It is a deep, blueish gunmetal shimmer. Maybe if I mixed a glittery blue with a gunmetal color I could get it. I have a L'Oreal color that is really similar only it is a matte, and not glittery.

I used the following websites as a guide.

You can go there to see really good photographs of the palette and swatches.

The palette comes with two bronzers, two blushes, and a highlight. The bronzers look alike to me in swatches. Similar bronzers that I have is the bronzer in the Elf Contouring Blush & Bronzer Powder in Blushed/Bronzed, and Physicians Formula Happy Booster Glow & Mood Boosting Powder in Light Bronzer. The blushes are La Vie En Rose and Papa Don't Preach. La Vie En Rose looks like the blush in the NYX Bronzer & Blusher Combo in Ibiza. Papa Don't Preach looks like Milani Baked Blush in Luminoso. The highlighter is Candlelight Glow. It looks very similar to Hard Candy So Baked Bronzer in Tiki.

Here are the dupes for the eyeshadows:
In the Buff: Wet 'n Wild Vanity, 1st color
Peach Fuzz: Wet 'n Wild Silent Treatment browbone
Marshmallow: Maybelline Eye Studio in Sea Sprite, 1st color
Lovey Dovey: Wet 'n Wild Comfort Zone, 3rd color
Copper Peony: Wet 'n Wild Comfort Zone, 2nd color
Teddy Bear: Maybelline Sunbaked Neutrals, top row, 2nd color
Gum Drop: Wet 'n Wild Sweet As Candy, eyelid
Malted Milk Ball: Covergirl Tapestry Taupe
Satin Sheets: Wet 'n Wild Petal Pusher, 5th color
Nice Stems!: Wet 'n Wild Comfort Zone, 6th color
Nice Ash: no dupe, L'Oreal Infallible 24 Eyeshadow in Sultry Smoke is a matte version
Cherry Cola: Maybelline Mad for Mauve, 4th shade
Honeymoon: L'Oreal Hip Dynamic, left side
Pastille: Maybelline Eye Studio Color Explosion Forest Fury, dark green
Cop A Teal: Wet 'n Wild Pride, 6th color
Black Sugar: Wet 'n Wild Greed, 3rd color

It comes with 3 Get The Look cards. I have tried each look with my dupes, and I like all three. I love Too Faced face charts! They are so helpful and fun to do.

Brown Sugar
Eyes: In the Buff (highlight), Copper Peony (lid), Lovey Dovey (crease)
Eyeliner: Cherry Cola
Blush: Papa Don't Preach & Candlelight Glow
Face: Sun Bunny Light
Lips: It doesn't say what color of lips to wear, but I would wear a peach to go with the peach blush. I used Bare Escentuals Buxom Lip Gloss in Amber.
My Thoughts: I'm going to use my Mac Studio Careblend Pressed Powder in Medium Deep to contour with. It isn't a dupe for Too Faced Sun Bunny Light, I just like the Mac one to contour with. Overall, I like this look.

Rock Candy
Eyes: Marshmallow (highlight), Honeymoon (lid), Teddy Bear (crease)
Eyeliner: Pastille
Blush: Sun Bunny Light & Candlelight
Face: Exclusive Bronzer
Lips: I would wear nude lips. I used Urban Decay Lip Junkie in Midnight Cowboy.
My Thoughts: The eye shadows all look good together. I used the Physicians Formula bronzer as a dupe for Too Faced Sun Bunny Light, and put it on like I would a blush. Then I contoured with my normal contour powder. I really like this look.

Pink Chocolate
Eyes: Peach Fuzz (highlight), Gum Drop (lid), Malted Milk Ball (crease)
Eyeliner: Black Sugar
Blush: La Vie en Rose
Face: Candlelight Glow
Lips: I would wear pink lips. I wore Revlon Super Lustrous Lip Gloss in Pink Afterglow.
My Thoughts: I didn't know if I would like pink eye shadow, but it looks good with black eyeliner. Also, I heard the other day on Lisa Eldridge's channel from the makeup artist that she likes pink eye shadow on redheads. So maybe pink looks better than I think. Use a stipple brush if using the blush in NYX Bronzer & Blusher in Ibiza because it is so pigmented. It's a lot more pink then I usually wear, but I think it looks pretty.
