Blushing Beauty

Well, who hasn't heard of these amazing blushes? Well.. me! When i first got into beauty about a year ago, these blushes weren't even on my radar, i had never heard about them. But the more i started reading blogs, and watching vlogs.. it seemed like this blush was all the rage! So... as a beauty addict, i had to try this blush, just to see if it as good as everyone says.

Firstly, i love the packaging of these blushes. They are really simple. I have the colour blushing Bride, and it comes in a plastic pink compact, which has 'Tarte' in embossed gold print on the lid. This flip open to reveal a mirror, and the pan of the product. The reason why i love this packaging is because the compact has a small hole at the bottom, where you can use a pin to pop the pan out of the packaging, and then stick it in something like a z-pallete, so easy to take this blush with you everywhere.

This blush pan is so pretty. Its a beautiful mauve pinky-purple, and is imprinted with a beautiful design which really is iconic to Tarte, and a similar design to what a lot of their packaging is decorated with. It sort of looks like an imprint of leaves or something.

This blush is pretty (like i have said a million times already). It silky smooth, but slightly chalky. I know that sounds bad, but the blush is also pigmented like you wouldn't believe. In saying that, it is quite a hard blush and i really have to swirl my brush around into this pan to pick up product (I use a natural brush, Mac 129), which could be part of the issue.

However, once the blush is on your face, It blends like a dream, and it seriously lasts all day! I do like this blush, but I just don't love it, and I am not 100% that its worth the price tag.

Long lasting and beautiful

I own 5 of these blushes. They are that good. All hauled from the USA - I can't help it every time i'm in sephora to pick a few more up.

The colour pay off is stunning and they blend really well. There is a wide range of shades to suit everyone.

I've also used a few of mine as eyeshadow when i've been in a pinch! The only thing i'll say is that the smaller holiday collections don't seem to be as pigmented. Is that just me?

Tips: round fluffy blush brush to buff it on to your face.

Limited Edition - Celebrated

This is my first tarte blusher and I have found it to be one of my top favourite blush that I own.

The packaging of this blusher is so cute in its clay orange toned casing with the limited edition gold confetti type print on the lid. Inside there is a mirror recessed inside the lid. There is also a printed image that tarte places on all their blushes, that even after half a dozen uses hasn't faded away due to it being deep set into the powder, but also that with this powder blush you only need to lightly pick up a small amount on your brush to get enough to cover your cheeks.

Amazonian clay blush texture feels slightly chalky when you run your finger over the blush inside the compact but once on a brush is acts like a cream/powder blush for having a smooth, soft even application and blends really well to avoid any harsh lines. The pigmentation of this dusky peach/rose blend of the limited edition blush is rather intense so a little goes a long way but if you want more impact it is very easily buildable to achieve a more wow factor. It has a long lasting formula too that sees it sit still on my face for at least 10-12 hours before I remove at the end of the day.

This has me slightly hooked to try more of the tarte blushes

Amazing

Love these blushes so much, I have a mini in party and it looks beautiful on my tanned summer skin, just makes me look super healthy and pretty. I also have blushing bride that is more cold toned and looks great on my pale winter skin. The formula is beautiful, not too pigmented, but can be built up, goes on even and smooth, never patchy. I’ll be repurchasing these forever and will definitely try other colours as well. Also not overly expensive and Sephora does sales often, but these can be ordered through tarte’s own website as well for even cheaper, plus they’ve got all the colours available, unlike Sephora.

HG status

These are so pigmented, so long lasting and so good! I have way too many shades including heaps of the limited edition holiday blushes. I especially love the matte colours. They look so "soft" on the cheeks despite being so pigmented. They also seem to mattify my cheeks which works well for my combination skin. I just adore these.

Tips: The shade "exposed" is a fantastic starter shade. Would work for a variety of skintones and works well with many different looks.

Tarte Amazonian Longwearing, Clay Blush

I have two minis of this one in Ornate which is a gorgeous, summery pinky coral. I love this shade on me. And one in Thrilled which is a nude, beige with a mauve undertone which looks very similar to the shade pictured. I really like my Tarte blushes, I reach for them a fair bit. I wouldn't say the formula is really soft but I have no problem getting plenty of pigment on my brush and it blended out well and didn't look powdery. I've used this when I had dry skin and when I've had oily skin and it lasted the same amount of time. That being said I don't really have problems with my blush fading. I can still find my blush on my cheeks at the end of the day or my natural flush comes through and I don't need more blush. It's not one of those blushes with blurring properties in it but it doesn't emphasize my pores. It claims Micronized Amazonian clay helps control oil & infuse moisture for balanced skin & seamless blending. I haven't noticed it balance out my skin on my cheeks or any improvement for my skin as a result but this is a cosmetic not skincare so I'm not expecting to do that, I also don't reach for this everyday. I do like that the formula is free of mineral oil and hasn't made me break out. The shades I have are matte but I think they have some that have more sheen. I would recommend trying these if you want a nice, matte longwearing blush that won't look powdery or break you out.

Tips: If you want to try out the blushes I would recommend looking at the giftsets from Tarte as a lot of them will have a small deluxe sized blush. The samples are 1.5 grams but they will last you awhile since you don't need very much. Because of the clay this formula is prone to hard pan especially if you wear a dewy, foundation or BB cream. This is easy to remedy by just going over the pan with some sticky tape to take off the top layer.

Tarte Cosmetics Amazonian Clay Blush

The Tarte Amazonial Clay blushes are my all-time favourite! The shade "exposed" is my current favourite, as its a stunning matte nude-pink. These blushes go on smoothly and blend really well, and they're really buildable which is nice because you aren't too at-risk of clown face after one swipe of your brush! I find that they do a really good job of lasting all day (the 12 hour claim is no joke), even during summer in humid Auckland, when the rest of my makeup is sliding off my face after work.

Tips: A little goes a long way and I find these last me a really long time, so I love collecting the travel-size versions!

Such a lovely blush

I decided to give this blush a go as Tarte had a set with lip product and this blush in the colour exposed. I must say it is one of my favourites out on the market it does what it says and looks so natural on my skin and it lasts throughout the day without the need to touch up. My skin tone is light with a slight yellow undertone. It is easy to build up to your desired look without looking like a clown. I highly recommend this product it does what it says and comes in a cute compact and it is not harsh on my sensitive skin.

Tarte blush

I got mine in a exposed. I love the colour as it super natural and matte. It applies very evenly without looking muddy or patchy. My only issue is I that as I swirl my brush the pan spins around (as its magnetic and made to be be refilled.) because of this I swipe sideways which means I will hit the pan before the sides. I get about 89 hours of colour from this.

Tips: I find this goes on with a synthetic brush as opposed to natural fibers. My goat hair brushes just dont seem to grab enough product.

One of my favourite blushers :)

This was my first ever Tarte purchase and over a year later is still one of my favourite blushes. The packaging is sturdy, in a shade which matches the blush within and has a handy mirror inside the lid. It also has a gorgeous embossed pattern on the actual blush which has lasted well with regular use.

I own the shade 'Blushing Bride' which is a gorgeous natural rosey pink with a small amount of fine shimmer. I find this has a good level of pigmentation, not lacking in the colour department but not that intense that it's difficult to work with. I find this blends out on the skin easily and looks very natural, not powdery at all. It has a good lasting power, still looking great at the end of the day.

I would 100% these Tarte blushes! In my experience Tartes products are fantastic quality, perform fantastically and always come in adorable packaging...what more could you want :)
