Too Faced Neptune Eyeshadow
Too Faced Neptune Eyeshadow ($16.00 for 0.08 oz.) is described as “aqua.” It’s a green-teal with subtle yellow undertones and a frosted, metallic finish. Buxom Saint Bernard is greener. MAC Shimmermoss is similar but has a more frosted finish. Urban Decay Minx is very similar but has a bit of sparkle/glitter. Giorgio Armani Ecailles is similar but less vibrant.
Too Faced markets their formula as crease-resistant with soft, blendable textures and rich color. Neptune has a soft, fairly dense and buttery texture with good color payoff. It’s very slightly powdery, but it does press and smooth down nicely with little pressure. When I wore it on the lid, it managed eight hours without creasing or fading. I was both surprised and rather impressed! Fans of softer, more buttery formulas (think theBalm, Urban Decay) will likely enjoy Too Faced’s as well. Each eyeshadow is packaged in a glossy black plastic case with a clear inner circle on the top.

i’m interested to know what the rating is! it seems to be missing!!
I fixed it!
Grade?
is it just me or is there no scores, no glossover and no overall rating?
Interesting shade – Too Faced cosmetics are a little harder to come by here in the UK so I’m glad to see you reviewing them again Christine! The review is very helpful. By any chance will you be reviewing their Exotic Colour Eyeshadows? I’m not sure if the post has been edited since the previous comments but I can definitely see the Glossover and the “A” grade.
The rating is stated.. scroll up. It’s an A! Pretty pictures, Christine!
Oh wow, I can’t remember ever seeing a Too Faced product on Temptalia! Thanks for the review, Christine! It’s always great to see a little variety.
it looks like birds and berries which I love 🙂
I need to pick this up. I’ve looked at it a bunch but never snagged it.
Christine, will you be doing a look with this shadow? It does look a bit like Birds & Berries which I love but I’d love to see what look you might come up with for this shadow.
@Mariella Nope, I’m already done testing this product!
Please review more Too Faced products.
This is SO pretty–bright but still wearable. I’ve been looking for a shade like this for summer and still haven’t gotten around to getting one. I need to check this one out!
Huh, interesting color! The swatch is really lovely — wasn’t expecting that much depth from the pictures of the pan!
@annedreshfield Ha! I didn’t read the rest of the comments before I posted and we’ve posted pretty much the same thought.. I looked at the pictures in the pan and thought ‘meh’ and then scrolled down and thought ‘wait a second..that’s lovely’!
@wwendalynne Agreed! Great minds think alike. 🙂
@annedreshfield dammit..now I want this.. LoL
Are these on their way out or something? In the local chain that carries Kit here (Australia) the only single eyeshadows they sell are the new ones in the flower-shaped compacts! : /
Love how this actually has more depth in the swatch than in the pan, particularly since it’s usually the reverse with shimmery colours.
Thank you so much for reviewing this, I’ve been very curious about the brand!
What would you pair this with Christine?
Blues, greens, teals!
This is gorgeous! I have a major thing for teal/aqua eyeshadows. 🙂
I was really happy to see a review for a Too Faced product; I would love to see more, as it’s a line I’m often tempted by. Three times, I’ve almost bought the Galaxy Glam eyeshadow in Moonbeam with its gorgeous meteor-like swirls and colour. But I always hesitate because it’s a baked shadow and I’ve heard some mixed things about their eyeshadows (when it comes to the palettes). Anyway, I’ve actually looked at this teal single quite a bit at Macy’s; it really is pretty and I’m impressed by its intensity. Given this review, I think I may pick it up at some point.
