Too Faced Country Nashville Nudes Eyeshadow Palette Review, Photos, Swatches
Too Faced Country Nashville Nudes Eyeshadow Palette
Too Faced Country Nashville Nudes Eyeshadow Palette ($36.00 for 0.39 oz.) includes nine eyeshadows; three are larger (0.07 oz. each) and six are smaller (0.03 oz. each). It’s an Ulta-exclusive palette that launches on June 1st. Some of the shades are really nice, some are lacking pigmentation, and a few are on the powdery side. If you usually use a primer, I think you’ll probably be okay, but it doesn’t work as nicely as the Rock ‘n’ Roll palette.
I double-checked with Too Faced, and they confirmed June 1st as the launch date on Friday (5/30). Unfortunately, I don’t have any other information on whether there is a new date, it’s simply late, or if there is some other reason for the delay. I highly suggest calling your local ULTA before making a drive to visit. Update on 6/3/14: Too Faced says there are shipment delays to retailers at this time, and the palettes are now pushed back to end of the month.
Cowboy Take Me Away is a light peach with a satin finish. It had excellent color payoff, while the texture was soft, blendable, and smooth–not at all powdery. The color lasted for eight hours on me before fading. See comparison swatches / view dupes.
Y’all is a muted, golden brown with a frosted sheen. It had decent pigmentation, and the texture was blendable but somewhat powdery and wasn’t as smooth to apply. It wore well for seven and a half hours before fading. See comparison swatches / view dupes.
Dolly is a dark, subtly cool-toned brown with a semi-matte finish. It had good color payoff, and the texture was fairly soft without being powdery. It lasted just over eight hours before I noticed fading. See comparison swatches / view dupes.
Famous in a Small Town is a brightened, warm white with a frosted, slightly metallic, finish. It had great pigmentation, and the consistency of the powder was soft, smooth, and buttery. The color stayed on the lid well for eight hours. See comparison swatches / view dupes.
Paper Roses is a medium, warm-toned pink with gold shimmer and a frosted finish. It had really good color coverage, and the texture was soft, blendable, and smooth. This shade managed to wear well for eight hours. See comparison swatches / view dupes.
Rhinestone is a muted, dark eggplant purple with neutral undertones and a soft, pearly finish. It had decent color payoff, but it could have been more intense, and the texture was somewhat powdery, which made it prone to sheering out on the lid. It would be best applied over a primer or slightly tacky base. It looked faded before eight hours of wear. See comparison swatches / view dupes.
All American Girl is a golden ivory with a frosted sheen. It was semi-sheer, and the texture was very thin–almost hard but not really stiff–which gave it a very smooth application, but the payoff wasn’t there. This shade showed signs of creasing after seven hours of wear. See comparison swatches / view dupes.
Nashville is a muted, cool-toned, gray-purple with a soft, frosted finish. It had good color payoff, and the texture was fairly soft and buttery, though just a bit powdery. The color lasted well for eight hours. See comparison swatches / view dupes.
Bluebird is a sparkling, navy blue with cool undertones and a soft, frosted finish. It was dry, almost chunky in a way, though the shimmer isn’t glitter and feels somewhere between shimmer and sparkle in regards to particle size. It just didn’t bind well together, unfortunately, which made it harder to work with. The color started to crease after seven hours of wear. See comparison swatches / view dupes.

Bluebird would be the only shade I would be interested. The rest are nice, but eh/
Definitely not a palette for you if only one shade catches your eye!
Hmm yeah, this palette is slightly underwhelming. The colors I was excited for didn’t pack the punch I would have liked.
That’s too bad 🙁 Maybe next time Too Faced will win you over!
Oh! I am loving this one. I’ll have to get it when my Ulta gets it in.
Yay! Enjoy, Lizzi!
I like your nail polish, what brand is it? And what is the name?
Zoya Harper!
That’s so cute!
Glad ya liked it, Melinda!
This palette is very cute. The overall quality seems to be kind of mediocre though, so I won’t be buying. That being said, if you’re going to name an eyeshadow in a country palette “Dolly”, than it needs to be the sparkliest pink eyeshadow you’ve ever made. Not a matte brown. Nothing could be more un-Dolly than a matte brown
I wonder why they went with brown!
I think I’ll just stick with the Rock ‘n Roll palette as my favorite (not that I can get it anyway 🙁 boo) but I do LOVE the names they picked for the colors in this one 🙂
Sometimes it’s weird how certain brands are/aren’t more globally available!
Bluebird is gorgeous! Very pretty look too btw!
Thank you, Fancie!
I love these Too Faced palettes. Paper Roses is especially lovely. I want both this one and Rock n Roll
Do you think you’ll get both or will narrow it down to one?
If I only get one, it will probably be Country. I don’t do that many dark, smoky looks. But I strongly suspect that I will end up with both…
Thankfully they’re not too expensive compared to other palettes.
This palette looks so cute! Love the colours and the packaging!
Happy you liked it, Kirsty!
the names of these shades are much better than the ones in the rock n’ roll palette:)
Yay 😀
I really like the colors in this palette. The white packaging looks so nice, too.
I just can’t get on board with the palette theme/eyeshadow names 🙁 (this also applies to the Rock n Roll palette)
Aww! 🙁 Maybe you could depot and then you wouldn’t have to look at the theme or names? Probably too much work, though!
Loved paper roses! But overall I think i will pass! 😉
Paper Roses was really lovely!
Thanks Christine I am in love with this been following the blog for a while I really want both the Rock N’ Roll and the Country. If I can only splurge for one it will be this one overall I love the look of the pinks, purples and the blues in this one which will fit with a lot of my summer looks.
Happy to help narrow it down, Kelly! xo
Christine, would you purchase this knowing two of the color didn’t perform well or were long lasting? Love the colors, but I kinda want all the colors to work in a kit. Know what I mean?
Thank you for the review!
Hey Robin!
For the price, one or two misses is doable for me, and if you normally wear eyeshadow primer, then the wear should improve and be fine. An eyeshadow primer will also help some of the lesser shades perform better. When I first started wearing makeup, I thought primer was a must… like all eyeshadows would fail without it, but once I started reading what brands said about them, I realized that they were really saying you can wear them as-is. The more I did it, the more I discovered a lot hold up quite well (but I don’t have really oily lids, so there is also that). Even so, a tube of primer lasts so long that it’s probably an extra step and precaution I’d take if I needed my makeup to last well for longer than 8 hours 🙂
Famous in a small town and paper roses are beautiful… too bad the rest of the palette’s nothing to write home about.
It is a more basic set of shades!
very pretty, and like everyone said paper roses and bluebird are gooorrrrgeous colors. BUT i’d really only wear like two or three of these colors. better luck next time! <3
Fingers crossed they put out a palette for you next 🙂
welp I like 5 out of the 9 colors
That’s pretty good! Are the other four like “no way” shades or just not as interesting to you?
I think this is adorable but is probably not so flattering on my more tan skin tone. Would love to see it on some more fair ladies though!
Sometimes the lighter contrast can work, but if the shades are very white-based, they can appear chalky on darker skin tones. Such a fine line!
Uhmm…yeah, not so interested anymore. Caveat: I have a ton of eyeshadows so at this point and it’s going to take a seriously special palette to draw me in. I really like Nashville, it’s gorgeous, but it reminds me of one of the colours in my TF Orchid Haze palette. Pass on this one and since Ulta doesn’t sell to Canada 😛
I sent an email inquiring whether there was going to be a designated Canadian retailer exclusive or not, no word yet, but we shall see.
Looks like a slight miss. I wanted to say that the beigy/whiteys and the two purples swatch rather similarly. They kind of do, but what I mean is they look vastly more different in the pan than they actually swatch. Which I guess, makes them somewhat lower in ‘true to pan’ rating. I believe I like my dupes better than most of these, esp. the blue in Chrysalis vs. Bluebird. You really do help us make informed decisions. One of the things i’ll do, esp. with a lippie, is like something, see what dupes i have, then go for one of the well rated dupes that is farthest from what I already have. Convoluted, but works for me! That’s how I settled on UD Gash, which i missed for the first time around. Also, you really do encourage us to revisit brands we thought were duds. I first bought 4 majorly ucky Stila products (lipstain pens, mascara + something else) that were just dreadful. Only got the best of kitten set since then, bec. after all, iconic IS iconic. That liner (starfish?) is excellent! But did I learn? Noooo! I had to see your reviews on the lovely (stay all day?) e/l before I even looked at the Stila display again. You look superb with mint in that mint + teal e/l look! And you certainly have taught me not to discount brands, due to a few duds. And that what we predict might be glorious, just could flop. We need you and appreciate you. Before the review, I though Country would be a go, but it’s a pass. Meditating on Monarch, which actually suits me better than either Naked 1 or 2. (speaking of getting what’s iconic…)
Hey, whatever works, I’m happy with, LOL! We try to build tools that allow readers the freedom to use them in a way that makes sense.
I’ve been there, too; a really bad experience with a brand without a lot of GOOD experiences prior can turn me off and make me really hesitant about trying anything else!
I think this palette is really pretty and it has such a lot of wearable colours to suit everyone. Although the brown seems out of place – why not a green?
By the way Christine. could you please do a review of mint eyeshadows? I love this colour but there are some wide variations in quality out there. Thanks.
Hi Genevieve,
http://www.temptalia.com/swatch-gallery?type=12674&color=Aqua
Thanks Christine.
I love the names but all the shades I liked in this one were your worst rated.
Aww 🙁
I like both this and the rock n roll one, so bummed they’re Ulta exclusives.
Exclusives can be a bummer!
Is Paper Roses the same as Jardin from the Too Faced A La Mode palette? It looks just like it. Are all the shades in this palette completely new/exclusive?
I like this palette…but I’m not freaking out in love with it like I was when I saw the promo images. I love Too Faced palettes, esp the 9 pan ones like this in the adorable tins. Rhinestone is a really beautiful shade. There are some really pretty shades in this but…it’s not what I thought it was going to be like based on the promo images. I’ll have to sleep on this one and look at the swatches again. Thank you so much for the review! 🙂
Hi Tara!
They’re not the same – http://www.temptalia.com/submit-dupe?sbs=1&pid=166451&dupe=162145
Too Faced didn’t specify if they’re exclusive or not, but based on their past palettes, it seems like they’re always “new” but they definitely get really close to other shades.
Hm, although the difficulty factor seems to be slightly higher than the Rock and Roll palette, I’m actually more excited by more shades in this one! For example, I really like the look of Bluebird, Nashville and Paper Roses…
…the catch, of course, is that 3 of the other shades (including all the largest pans) probably won’t show up on my skintone…(even though they are pretty)! 😛 Also, it’s not like we have Ulta here anyway, but still 😉
For the price, it’s good enough, and if you normally wear primer, that will help some of the downsides to the lesser performing shades (sometimes even primer isn’t enough of a help, lol).
Paper Roses is gorgeous.
Agreed
I’m definitely getting both of the palettes! Thanks for the swatches! Love the look as well.
My pleasure, Etoile!
So cute, Paper Rose looks like a lighter version of a big cheap eyeshadow I got from Farmasi. Such a gorgeous, unique color!
Mine even has a gold duochrome, not just an usual shimmer, it looks like the Clinique pink and plenty dupe in compact powder form, from what I see, but with better quality, tho not long lasting, it looks gorgeous on and it looks great on any eye color(definitely on my mom’s gray-blue ones and my dark brown ones). Yay :))
I love colors like Paper Roses and Pink & Plenty!
Ulta Exclusive? Why? 🙁 I need this here in the Netherlands! I love the theme and I love the colors. It is perfect for me.
Aww 🙁
Paper Roses is such a pretty and girly color!
I love how is it pink-based!
This is the first Too Faced palate to catch my eye in sometime, but I think I’m going to have swatch in store. I worry that they may be too light to show up on my skin!
Fingers crossed they’ll show up on you, Carrie!
Another question after comparing swatches – how does Bluebird compare to De La Mer from the Too Faced A La Mode palette? They look totally different in the pan but the swatches look similar. Thanks again! 🙂
Here you go, Tara! http://www.temptalia.com/submit-dupe?sbs=1&pid=166455&dupe=162149
De La Mer is a bit darker, more blackened navy blue.
Thank you so much, Christine! 😀
Will this be added to the permanent range?
They didn’t say limited edition from the materials I have!
i love the names of the eyeshadows. i’m not American, but i can see the reference to ”country” style in the names. my favorite name is y’äll. pretty packaging as well. i wish Too Faced cosmetics were available where i live
I wish they were, too!
Called three different Ultas today….they knew nothing about them. Very frustrating.
I’m not sure why there seems to be a lack of communication between Too Faced and Ulta here – I double-checked with Too Faced, and they again confirmed June 1st as the launch date.
I got the same thing, they know nothing about it. I called my local Ulta here in Columbus, GA and even to one in Alabama 🙁 VERY frustrating! I know it’s only day one, but for no one at any of my surrounding Ulta’s to even know what I’m talking about, it’s a turn off. I may just pass altogether due to the lack of communication.
I thought these were supposed to be released June 1, today. There is nothing at Ulta, in stores or on line and no one seems to know about them.
Hi Laura,
I don’t know why they’re not – Too Faced confirmed last Friday that June 1st was still the date. I reached out on Monday morning inquiring about it, and I haven’t heard back yet.
Update on 6/3/14: Too Faced says there are shipment delays to retailers at this time, and the palettes are now pushed back to end of the month.
Wow… I work at Ulta (there earlier today actually lol) and did not see this palette anywhere! Not on the shelf, in backstock or any signage, nothing. I hadn’t even heard about it. So apologies to anyone who has been looking for it but in Texas of all places we haven’t stocked it yet.
Glad I happened to stop in here today Christine- you helped me to help my customers! 🙂
Don’t know why there is such a lack of communication going on here 🙁
I decided to call Too Faced today and was told beauty bloggers get items first so they can I review them. I told I was aware but asked why was temptalia.com advised that the palettes would be released June 1st? The only answer I got was that marketing must have made a mistake…. And that she was not sure when the Nashville or Rock n’ Roll would be released and that there should be an email that goes out. She offered to check Ulta’s website, but I told her it was on there yet. How can their own reps be this clueless? Very disappointed in Too Faced. I don’t blame Ulta at all.
I reached out on Monday morning to Too Faced inquiring about it, and I haven’t heard back yet. It’s true that bloggers can get products before they’re released, but if I give out a date, it’s come from the brand officially for sure!
Update on 6/3/14: Too Faced says there are shipment delays to retailers at this time, and the palettes are now pushed back to end of the month.
Thank you! I passed on the MAC Osbournes because these make more sense for me.
Do you know when this palette will be available? I read June 1, but I check the ulta website every day and haven’t seen it yet! Thanks!
Yesterday, Too Faced said end of June, and this morning I was told June 17th.
Any update on this? I received an e-mail from Too Faced saying their Cat Eyes fall collection will be out on the 17th. I hope that isn’t replacing the Country Eyes palette!
That’s just the third palette they’re releasing. I only received one update (which is posted towards the beginning post):
I double-checked with Too Faced, and they confirmed June 1st as the launch date on Friday (5/30). Unfortunately, I don’t have any other information on whether there is a new date, it’s simply late, or if there is some other reason for the delay. I highly suggest calling your local ULTA before making a drive to visit. Update on 6/3/14: Too Faced says there are shipment delays to retailers at this time, and the palettes are now pushed back to end of the month.
Love ! I cant wait to get it
Yay!
I think this palette is stunning!! Im setting my alarm for early Tuesday morning to make sure I get mine 🙂 These colors are so me 🙂 Thank you so much for the in depth review. I am such a Too Faced junkie!! ps, I love your eye look in your thumbnail! Can you share what you used for the look? Thanks!
Hugs,
Amy

Just a heads up: they stole everything from your review 🙂
[link redacted]
Thank you, Carrie!
This palette is so lovely. I’m excited to play around with this palette when it comes in the mail. The too faced website finally put up this palette! I really like the Nashville,Paper Rose, Bluebird, and Rhinestone.
YAY!
Out of the three New Palettes which would you say is the most Unique?
Rock ‘n’ Roll, but they’re all more dupable than not.
