I have been on a Too Faced No-Buy for a few years now, yes YEARS. I 110% blame my purchasing the Too Faced Hot Buttered Rum Palette on Samantha March. She did a look with this palette and it turned out stunning so I had to have. Thanks Samantha /sarcasm font. Keep scrolling to see how this worked out for me…

Too Faced Hot Buttered Rum Palette Review
From left to right the shadows are; Whipped Cream – pearl white in a frosted formula, Bottoms Up – latte brown in a matte formula, Born to Rum – copper in a metallic formula, and Spiked – a brown matte formula with gold sparkles. As you’ve probably heard a lot of reviewers say, I’m not a huge fan of mattes with sparkles in them. However, Spiked is gorgeous and makes me rethink that. Frosted is a great inner eye, inner 1/3rd of the eye, etc. kind of shade. And don’t even get me started on how gorgeous Born to Rum is.
From left to right the shadows are; Vanilla Extract – warm cream in a matte formula, Warm and Fuzzy – champagne in a metallic formula, Sin-Ammon – auburn brown in a matte formula, and Buttered Rum – butterscotch in a matte formula. Not going to lie Warm and Fuzzy and Sin-Ammon are my two favorite shades in the whole palette, even if the shade name Sin-Ammon makes me groan.
Final Thoughts on the Too Faced Hot Buttered Rum Palette
This is another one that I’m torn on. The packaging is cute and the little metal tin closes well. To go along with that the shadows are all super pigmented, perform well on the eyes, and I can get an all matte and a more glam look out of this palette. However, I’m not quite sure that $25.00 for such a small palette is something I want to say “Yeah go out and buy this” and on top of that the scent. Yes this does have SOME fragrance to it but it’s nothing like the Chocolate Bar Palette. If you open the Chocolate Bar Palette and get within a foot of the damn thing chocolate attacks you, asks to be your friend, and then all of a sudden you’re raising it until it’s 18 and off to college. This palette though? I had this thing all shoved up under my nose sniffing it like I was a drug addict and needed a fix. The Hubs was seriously like “Are you sure you want to be doing that in the car in front of your job”. I kinda wanted to be like “Yeah I want to, maybe someone will come out to ask what I’m doing and I can be like ‘can YOU smell anything on this?'” All that to say, if you’re buying it for that Hot Buttered Rum scent action then move along. Even if the decimal was one spot over and this was $2.50 I would tell you to skip it. However, if you want it for some gorgeous holiday looks and some amazing quality eye shadows, then yes grab this now because it’s slowly fading off the Interwebs.

If I were to buy this palette, it would be for the hot buttered rum scent, so thanks for the honest assessment of its smellability 😉 I agree that $25 is a little high for this palette. For me, it’s a little too filled with warm, yellowy shades.
Yeah if you’re getting it for the scent I’d say skip it. Or if you can find it in store somewhere give it a sniff and see what you think for yourself.
It’s a pretty palette, but too warm for me!
Understandable.
Not a fan of fragranced Too Faced. The only use my chocolate ones get is from my granddaughter who likes to smell them. It just always bugged me to have to smell it. This Rum one isn’t really my colors though a few are nice.
I can see fragranced palettes not being a big hit. I can take a fragranced palette or leave it, I just get annoyed if it’s advertised as fragranced and the fragrance is lackluster.
Thanks for the review, I considered this palette, but I felt it’s too similar to the UD Honey Palette which I already have.
I could totally see that. That one is on my list to review hahaha
This palette looks like it would be gorgeous on you!
It really does make my blue eyes stand out more, which I really like.
I might have to to check out this brand! It’s a pretty palette, useful and quality.
It’s a great easy go-to palette
