Too Faced La Creme Lip Cream: Loganberry

Swatches & Review


I have always wanted to try Too Faced's La Creme lip color, but I never had the chance to get it. When I found a good deal on it, I was able to purchase two of them to try. Loganberry is described as a berry pink from Too Faced.

The lipstick is packaged in a metallic golden tube, however, it is not a super-shiny finish to the packaging, which means that it does not attract fingerprints. It's taller than most lipsticks, but feel a bit slimmer at the same time.

Although Loganberry is described as a berry pink, I thought that it looked more like a berry red-pink, with the red being more visible when swatched & worn. Usually, I feel like berry colors are more for the fall & winter season, but Too Faced came out with their berry line for Spring & I can definitely see why. This berry shade feels like it can be worn year round! For my swatches, I used one swipe and it was super pigmented! It was very soft and lightweight, which made it feel comfortable on the lips. The downside to these are that because they are very lightweight, they wear off easily. When eating, I find that I would have to reapply right after because there would be nothing left by the time I was done. When worn without eating, it lasts about 3 hours before it fades away, so these are not long-wearing at all. I also found that these need to be applied carefully with not too much pressure because they are really soft, or else, it would break apart easily.

Overall, I like the color and I love how it feels very light on the lips, but because it is very soft and wears off easily, I kind of have mixed feelings about these. You would use a lot more product from all the re-applying you would have to do with these & it isn't always convenient considering they would melt easily if you were to carry these around out. I would get these if I find deals on these, but I probably would not pay full-priced out of pocket for these. The Too Faced La Creme Lip Cream's retail for $21 and can be purchased on TooFaced.com, Sephora (Online & In-store) & Ulta (Online & In-store).

Too Faced Sweet Indulgence Palette

First of all, don't you hate it when you order something from a website and something else you also want decides to pop up just a day or two after? Yes, it happens to me ALL the time. Two days ago, I placed an order for Benefit and Tarte Holiday sets and today, Sephora decides to put up their yearly exclusive palette! When I was placing an order, the only Holiday collection from Too Faced was their Bon Bons set, which is not a Sephora exclusive. Today, Sephora posted up their yearly Too Faced Holiday collection which is called Sweet Indulgence.

Like previous years, the Sephora exclusive Too Faced set comes with a full-sized primer. I have grown to love their Shadow Insurance. According to Sephora, this set contains:
- 16 x 0.06 oz Eye Shadows in In the Buff, Peach Fuzz, Marshmallow, Lovey Dovey, Copper Peony, Teddy Bear, Gum Drop, Malted Milk Ball, Satin Sheets, Nice Stems!, Nice Ash, Cherry Cola, Honeymoon, Pastille, Cop a Teal, Black Sugar
- 2 x 0.14 oz Blushes in La Vie en Rose, Papa Don’t Peach
- 2 x 0.14 oz Bronzers in an exclusive shade and Sun Bunny Light
- 0.14 oz Highlighter in Candlelight Glow
- 0.35 oz Shadow Insurance Eye Shadow Primer in Candlelight
- Exclusive double-ended brush
- 3 x get-the-look cards

What I like about this set is that they also included a double-ended brush in this collection, which is something they have not done in previous years. Comparing the shades, they have released In the Buff, Peach Fuzz, & Teddy Bear in both their previous palettes. However, it is nice to see that Label Whore is not in here again. The repeat shades compared to last years are Lovey Dovey, Copper Peony, Nice Stems!, Nice Ash, Satin Sheets, Honeymoon & Cop a Teal. It seems that the shades that are not repeats are Marshmallow, Gum Drop Malted Milk, Cherry Cola, Pastille & Black Sugar. I guess if you do not mind repeats, then this is definitely worth it. Candlelight Glow was also in last years Sweet Dreams Palette and La Vie en Rose was in their 2010 Glamourland palette. They have three "get-the-look cards".. what is a Too Faced palette without those? lol! I like how this comes in a tin box as well. Although I have many shades from this collection, I would still get it just because I collect Too Faced's yearly Sephora exclusive sets. This retails for $52, which is the same price as last years. What do you think? Are you going to indulge? :)
