FOTD- Tipsy

Here's another FOTD featuring another one of the Tarte blushers I picked up recently. Tipsy is a highly pigmented matte coral colour that is very natural, looks like my natural flush. I'm really getting into corals and peachy colours, I thinks they suit me much better than pinky tones but hey my taste could change in a week. I'm very finicky like that:) 

Face- Maybelline Mineral Power Foundation in Nude Light 4,  Clinique Airbrush Concealer 02 Medium
Cheeks- Chanel Soleil Tan De Chanel, Tarte blush in Tipsy

Eyes- Urban Decay 24/7 Liner in Gunmetal, Mac Haute & Naughty Mascara
Lips- Maybelline Colour Sensational Lipstick in Pink Petal


While I'm at it, I have a product rave. I picked up this Models Prefer Professional Brush in MPP100 Airbrush a while ago from Priceline. I didn't think much of it at first but I've been recently using it to apply my blush and i love it!! It's so soft and just the perfect size for the apples of my cheeks. Its also really easy to blend in with if you accidently like myself, go a little blush crazy and apply a little too much.

FOTD- Exposed

As promised a FOTD with the Tarte Blushers I recently purchased. To see the swatches of the blush click HERE.
My opinion on the blushers, gorgeous!!! They blend well, and they pretty much last the whole time I have my makeup own, slightly faded but I find I still have some glow left at the end of the day. 
Exposed is a matte dusky rose colour which when I initially looked at it in the pan, looked more like a bronzer, but when blended out it gives a 'rosey' natural flush to the cheeks which is a really pretty look for the winter months.

Once again the obligatory *deer in headlights look*

Tarte Amazonian Clay Blushers

They finally arrived!!!! I was heaps excited to receive my Tarte blushers that i've been lemming for eons. 
So the hype surrounding these blushers are that they are infused with Amazonian Clay,which contain antioxidants and minerals that are all natural and good for your skin. The big claim with these blushers are, they're meant to last 12 hours. Now I am highly skeptical about that but if they last from the moment I put my makeup on at 8am till 5pm after a full day at uni, i'm impressed.


First impressions are the packaging is gorgeous, perfect to display on your vanity. Plus point, the colour of the blush corresponds to the outer packaging which makes it heaps easier to look for them especially if your a blush junkie like myself.


Exposed, Tipsy and Amused
From swatching them on my wrist, they seem to be really soft and easy to blend. Pigmentation is pretty decent as well. I shall be testing them over the next couple of weeks so I will be able to review them better, so look out for some FOTD's.

Have you tried any blushers from this line?  What are your thoughts on them?
