using Tarte Amazonian Clay blush in Glisten

Daily revelations, January 23, 2012

“Isosceles” as well as “Camembert” are two extremely dignified words.

The retail pet products world discriminates against cats (at Target, dogs get both sides of an entire aisle for toys as well as canine accessories, however cats just get one little section of wall!).

What does it mean when you’re no longer embarrassed about stating things such as this out loud: “The kitty appetizers with the shredded pieces are method classier than the ones with cubed bits.”

ZOMG! Tarte’s four shimmery, glittery Amazonian Clay Blushes for spring 2012 are totally great!

I’m still trying to find whether these four new $25 blushes are restricted edition or permanent, however I’m truly hoping that Tarte decides to keep ’em around, since I can quickly see myself using Adored (a great pink with purplish glitter), Frisky (a red with golden glitter), Buff (a nude peachy brown with silver glitter) as well as Glisten (a shimmery peachy gold from last year’s QVC-exclusive 8th world question kit) all year round.

Like their older siblings, these four new shades likewise contain (you guessed it!) Amazonian Clay! — an component that Tarte declares is able to adapt to different skin conditions, both moisturizing dry patches as well as taking in grease in oily areas at the exact same time.

My dry cheeks have yet to feel a unexpected surge of wetness when they wear these, however I can state that the blushes haven’t made my alligator skin circumstance any type of worse.

Also like last year’s blushes, these pigmented powerhouses have incredible grip strength! They latch onto my cheeks as well as don’t let go for nothin’, not even after several trips to as well as from my cars and truck yesterday in the rain. They stayed put all the time long up until I eliminated my makeup around 9 at night, so if you requirement or want a long-wearing blush, you might do a great deal worse than these.

But, you may be wondering, what about the glitter? Well, I believe Tarte handles it well. It’s definitely not shine ala Claire’s/Hot Topic. Tarte appears to be utilizing a semi-matte blush base for Adored, Frisky as well as Glisten that tones down the celebration effect, so it’s visible from an arm’s length away, however the shine flecks are so small as well as subdued that I believe they look refined. We’re speaking classy shine here, babe.

A few notes on the private shades…

Adored — This great glittery pink looks a bit bit like a flashier, glittery NARS Mata Hari.

Frisky — If creamy NARS Cactus flower blush came in a powder, I’d phone call it Frisky. the most intense of the four new shades, as well as I bet it’ll pop on skin tones from medium to dark.

Glisten — This shimmery peachy gold is the only one that didn’t get glitter. If you already have MAC Sunbasque or NARS Luster, you already have a shade extremely similar to Glisten.

Buff — This nude peachy brown is such a showoff with its flecks of silver glitter! It’s most likely my preferred of the lot as well as the one that’s the least like anything else in my collection. I likewise believe it’s the subtlest of the group, however that doesn’t hold back it’s fun potential.

All in all, it looks to me like Tarte is beginning this spring with a bang.
