Holy Grail Tarte blushes

Tarte Natural Beauty and Exposed

These beauties made their way from Kuala Lumpur to Dubai to my face a couple of days ago.

I’ve never used Tarte anything, but I have admired the Amazonian Clay blushes from afar after seeing them on various beauty bloggers faces so I was mega excited to use them.

I haven’t looked at the whole range of shades available but I reckon that these are the only two you need. Exposed is a sort of deep rose-pink/brown that can be used as a natural looking blush or contour (or even as a bronzer?) and Natural Beauty is an amazingly bright pink that can be used lightly as a natural looking flush or heavier for a real pop of colour.

At first I thought that Exposed was the one for me. It’s totally my kind of colour but then when I used Natural Beauty I swooned – it’s just so beautiful! Here’s Exposed on my face;

See what I mean by natural looking? It adds definition to the face and a really nice glow.And here’s Natural Beauty;

They are so seriously pigmented that one swatch with a brush ends up looking this strong on the face.

Honestly, I’m completely in love. These blushes are my new favourite thing. I love the shades, I love that they’re so pigmented and I love the soft matte finish. If you can get your hands on them, then do it. Holy Grail blushes people!

Their new Dynamic Skin Retinol is an exciting launch as it’s suitable for entry-level users (using once a week) and experienced users (using several times a week). 

It contains a 3.5% retinoid complex, concentrated squalane and beta-glucan (an oat-derived humectant), so it’s powerful but hydrating and soothing at the same time 👏🏻 

They brought us to @westburydublin to celebrate the launch with the wonderful @louise_dermalogica (she’s patiently answered every nerdy skincare question I’ve ever put to her 😂) and honestly, I can’t believe it’s already over - so here’s a post to help me go back there for a moment.

@beautyofjoseon_official Relief Sun SPF50. It’s made with 30% rice extract so it’s super gentle and particularly great for sensitive skin. 

It’s lightweight, hydrating, not sticky and leaves no white cast on the skin (and it’s amazing under makeup). 

If you’re looking for a new sunscreen, try this. It’s absolutely brilliant 🙌🏻
