Tarte Holiday 2010 Makeup Sets
Holy moly. Tarte has such great beauty bargains within their holiday makeup collections. First of all, the glam and ruffly Royal Collection resembles a faux suede and leather jewelry box. It's such a deal at $43. You get 16 full size eye shadows, a travel size Clean Slate face primer, Vitamin-Infused pink lip gloss (love this gloss), multiplEYE lash primer and the popular Lights, Camera, Lashes! mascara. To compare just how low this price is, their TEN anniversary palette is already a steal at $44 and that one has 10 eye shadows.
For another $9, Sephora has an exclusive Jewelry Box palette ($52) that will really dazzle any eco-makeup lover. This limited-edition box contains 16 full size shimmering eye shadows, 16 full size matte eye shadows, 8 lip glosses, mineral powder bronzer, highlighting powder in soft pink, and 5 long-wearing eyeliner pencils. If you only use this palette you won't really need to buy new makeup for a long time. This decadent cosmetics box also comes with a detachable gold and black necklace that you can actually wear. How fun is that?
For those who might think the eye shadows are too light (not enough color payoff), keep in mind that these are mineral-based shadows. Instead of blending it like regular eye makeup, you'll get more vivid tones if you use a dabbing motion with your brush to pack in more color.
The Ring It In Cheek Stain Set offers mini cheek color tubes in 3 universally flattering shades: Vivid (vibrant rosy pink), Luster (peach champagne), and Flawless (soft peachy pink). The set also comes with a sassy Gold Knot Ring. At $25 each, you can get one for yourself and as a stocking stuffer gift for your BFF.
