One of my favorite parts of the holiday season is all of the amazing holiday sets and limited edition items that are released! Today I’ll be sharing with you some must-haves from Tarte Cosmetics, one of my favorite high-end brands. Each year, Tarte releases some great holiday items – but they also have some great items in their permanent range as well!

Tarte Amazonian Clay Matte Waterproof Bronzer – Park Avenue Princess | 30

This is one of Tarte’s best-selling products! It is a vegan, waterproof bronzer with a natural and versatile matte finish. This pigmented Amazonian clay-infused bronzer formula is ultrablendable, never patchy (even after hours of water) and leaves your skin hydrated, balanced, and radiant. It is a universally flattering shade that can be used to add warmth, sculpt, or give your complexion an all-over glow.

For years, I have loved the shimmery version of Park Avenue Princess. I was super excited to finally try the matte version and let me tell you, I wish I had bought this product sooner! It is a perfect tone for bronzing to warm up the skin and when concentrated, work amazing as a contour. The powder is super pigmented so a little goes a long way. It doesn’t look orange on the skin and it blends nicely. You won’t get a very sharp contour with this product – it creates more of a natural shadow.

Tarte Rainforest of the Sea Radiance Drops | $32

This non-greasy, multitasking elixir has brightening, micro-glistening pearls along with the antioxidant Rainforest of the Sea complex to deliver a healthy, mermaid glow anywhere on your face and body. This is much more than a face oil. These radiance drops effortlessly disappear into the skin and are multi-purpose. The hypoallergenic formula completely absorbs into all skin types – even oily skin – without clogging pores, while the antioxidant Rainforest of the Sea complex, coconut, jojoba oil & vitamin E help hydrate and nourish skin.

You get a convenient dropper applicator for these drops. I love that they are multi-purpose. You can use this product as a highlighting primer or apply it to your lips to moisturize them before applying your matte lipsticks. You can even mix it with your foundation to have instant radiance and leave a reflective, pearlescent glow anywhere on your face. Try adding a bit on your body for a nice glow as well! The formula sinks into the skin nicely and doesn’t leave you feeling or looking greasy.

Tarte Amazonian Clay 12-Hour Blush – Captivating | $29

This award-winning powder blush contains long-wearing Amazonian clay, so pigment looks freshly applied all day. This super soft, silky powder is chocked full of true-color mineral pigments that let you layer your glow with no harsh lines or chalky build-up. The micronized Amazonian clay helps control oil and infuse moisture for balanced skin & seamless blending. The magnetized pan lets you pop your favorite shade from its compact to create a custom palette.

I own so many of Tarte’s Amazonian Clay Blushes in my collection. One of my favorite things about these blushes are that the packaging somewhat matches the color of the blush – so if you have a lot of them floating around in your collection, you know which shade you are grabbing for without having to open each one individually. The powders are extra smooth and super pigmented. You really only need to lightly dab your blush brush into the pan to pick up enough product for your entire cheek. If you haven’t tried this formula before, I’m sure you will love it! The blush wears for a very long time and I have never had to reapply them. The shade that I have this in is Captivating and it is a gorgeous coral shade.

Tarte Clay Play Face Shaping Palette | $46

Like shapewear for your face – these 12 essential Amazonian clay matte eyeshadows multitask as universal eye, nose & brow shapers, plus contour colors so you can #slaywithclay.

Define & contour your features with this universal ‘power sculpting’ palette. This palette contains 12 essential shades: nine neutral-to-smoky matte eyeshadows with buildable color & three sculpting face powders contour a variety of skin tones. Each microfine powder blends to a natural long-wearing finish minus the harsh lines. The secret’s in the clay: it helps balance & replenish skin so you can get the most even payoff without creasing, caking, or flaking.

Shades:

Journey (rosy buff)
Stone (rosy brown)
Solstice (ivory)
Terracotta (warm taupe)
Dunes (slate brown)
Smoke (coffee)
Sand (cream)
Desert (cool taupe)
Ember (amber brown)
Onyx (black)
Instinct (buff)
Timber (chestnut)

If you love matte eyeshadows, you will LOVE this palette. The eyeshadows perform just like other Tarte eyeshadows in the line. The mattes are smooth, pigmented, and easy to blend. A little goes a long way as with all of their products. They do kick up just a tiny bit of powder, so you’ll want to tap the excess off of your brush to prevent fallout. Overall, you can achieve a gorgeous matte look with this palette, whether natural or smoky, in just a matter of minutes. I also love the added contour shades. This palette would look great on a variety of skin tones – from the fairest to the deepest.

Tarte Limited-Edition Treasure Box Collector’s Set | $59

I had to save the best for last! This gift set overflows with Tarte treasures – like their best-selling eyeshadows, liner, mascara, cheek & lipstick formulas in all new shades. #tartedelight

Give yourself a full face of glam with exotic packaging inspired by the Tarte team’s travels. Inside, you’ll find everything you need in one place – a 24-piece eyeshadow palette, warm & cool toned blushes, 2 universal bronzers, and a pearlescent highlighter with all new shades to love. Open the storage compartment to reveal some “hidden treasures” – a full-sized Sex Kitten Eyeliner, and travel-sized faves, including Tarte’s iconic mascara and a quick-drying, matte liquid lipstick.

Limited-edition set includes:

24 Amazonian clay eyeshaodws in new matte and metallic shades
2 Amazonian clay blushes in Perk (carnation pink) and Wish (watermelon pink)
2 Amazonian clay bronzers in Navigate (matte bronze) and Excursion (bronze luster)
Amazonian clay highlighter in Wanderlust (light champagne)
Full-sized Sex Kitten Eyeliner
Deluxe Sample of Lights, Camera, Lashes 4-in-1 mascara
Deluxe Sample of Tarteist Quick Dry Matte Lip Paint in Grand (deep rose)

This kit truly gives you everything you need to create your entire look from eyes to lips to cheeks to lashes! The eyeshadows are on par with Tarte’s other eyeshadows. I love their formula. I love the face that you get two blushes and two bronzers in here. One of the bronzers has a nice sheen to it so you can add some shimmery glow to your skin. The highlighter is perfect to luminize your skin but does not contain chunks of glitter.

Lights, Camera, Lashes mascara is one of my favorites ever (I’ve used several tubes over the years) so I’m glad to see this appear in this kit. The Tarteist lip paint shade is a great neutral for every day wear. The Sex Kitten Eyeliner is smooth, creamy, and pigmented and glides onto the waterline effortlessly to allow you to smoke out your entire look.

Here are some swatches of these products:

Blushes, Bronzers, and Highlight from Treasure Box Collector’s Set

Eyeshadows from Treasure Box Collector’s Set

Tarteist Lip Paint in Grand and Sex Kitten Eyeliner from Treasure Box Collector’s Set

Here are some looks I created using a mixture of these products.

As you can see from the photos, all of the products are ultra smooth and pigmented. There is not one dud out of this entire bunch of products. I would recommend anything from the Tarte line to anyone of any skill level when it comes to makeup. If you want to get the most bang for your buck, I would recommend the Treasure Box Collector’s Set. Especially since it’s limited edition! It would make an amazing holiday gift!
