I’m Loving: Makeup By Tarte Cosmetics.
I recently was lucky enough to received a delivery from Tarte New York of a selection of their famous products to trial. I was over the moon and am loving them all. Let’s take a look at some of the beautiful pieces…
I Try Tarte


Hotel Heiress
Need a bit of colour? Try Hotel Heiress by Tarte, a matte waterproof bronzing powder containing Amazonian clay. Ideal to both bronze and contour your face, this best-selling, multi-tasking vegan bronzer gives hours of pigmented wear that’s streak-free leaving your skin healthy and glowing.

Maracuja Oil
Maracuja Oil (NZ $63) can be used not only on the face, but in your hair to control frizz, as a night moisturiser, and dry patches on hands, cuticles, and elbows, making it a real multi-tasker.

Sex Kitten
Tarte Sex Kitten Eyeliner (NZ$33) is a triple-black, vegan, gel eyeliner with a smudger at one end. The eyeliner was very comfortable to apply and wear and waterproof, and safe for the undereye and lashline. I found it lasted well all day without bleeding and running.


Tartlette in Bloom
12 beautiful shades from matte to shimmer are the highlight of eyeshadow palette, Tartlette in Bloom, NZ $63. This best-selling product is popular for a reason; they are easy to wear, simple to use, and form the essentials of a good eye shadow wardrobe with all the must-have shades in warm tones.

H2O Gloss
H2O Gloss are ocean nutrient-rich lip glosses that delivery colour without stickiness. They contain antioxidants and marine nutrients to nourish lips. H2O Gloss is free of petrolatum, a toxic found in some lip glosses. NZ$36


Rainforest of the Sea
Rainforest of the Sea has three highly pigmented finger-paint eyeshadows that offer intense colour, without fallout.
New Favourites
I really enjoyed trialling Tarte for the first time, and have many new favourites to add to my makeup bag that I shall reach for time and again. Sex Kitten was a strong fave and the moisturising lipsticks are amazing, and I have been wearing Colada often.
