Tarte Cosmetics Shape Tape Contour Concealer

Tarte Shape Tape Contour Concealer

Fair,Light & Light Medium $24 each online here!

I am sure if you are following me on all my other social media you have heard about this concealer already. In fact you may be tired of hearing me rave about it. I am in my thirties, I have large pores and fine lines. This concealer is my savior, no other concealer highlights,conceals & contours like this product. I don't worry about it setting in my lines, or accentuating any of my flaws.

I can use the shade fair for all my highlighting needs. This concealer not only works great for highlighting but I can use the shade in light for any breakouts or spots I need to cover. This concealer blends into the skin so effortlessly, I want to get a darker shade to try and contour with it. Because of its creamy consistency I already know that it would work great for that purpose.

We all love a good concealer, and I can promise that you will fall in love with it! Please let me know your favorite concealer!

Spring is an amazing time for new beauty products. Although these may not all be your typical lipstick, they are my current favorite lip products!

Tata Harper Volumizing Lip and Cheek Tint- Very Charming and Very Nice $36 online here!

Tarte Rainforest of the Sea Quench Lip Rescue-Rose $19 online here!

Tarte Rainforest of the Sea Drench Lip Splash Lipstick-Mai Tai $22 online here!

Tata Harper Lip and Cheek Tints are new to me, so I was so excited when I got the opportunity to review them. I never use these products for their dual purposes, but I am more than happy to use these just for my lips. They pack a beautiful wash of color, while leaving your lips moisturized. I love that these are all natural and still so amazing!
Very Charming is a described as the perfect petal pink, which will compliment every skin tone!
Very Nice is a pinky-nude that sets to a beautiful matte finish.

Tarte is a brand that I am very familiar with and I am in love with these lipsticks. First up the Lip Rescue in Rose offers moisture with a hint of color and I have gotten so many questions about what I am using when I wear this shade. It looks innocent enough but trust me, you will get compliments when you wear this gem!

Of course the Tarte Lip Splash in Mai Tai is fun to wear, and looks amazing. I was impressed because the color shown online says Orange. This is definitely a reddish orange which is much more flattering for me and my teeth heh.

I am so pleased that these two cruelty free, natural brands pack so much color. I am happy to share these with you and hope you will try these brands out!

$39 for 0.5oz at Sephora.com

This primer is the best I have ever used on my oily skin. The consistency is perfect, and doesn't add to my oily skin. I focus it on my oily t-zone and anywhere that I feel my makeup sets in my wrinkles or creases.

This is an unedited (besides cropping and putting into a collage) photo of my wrist where I am prominent wrinkles/lines. The lighting is different because it was a rainy day I didn't want to change the lighting so it wouldn't change the results. You can see that this is the same area by my vein and a little freckle.

The first photo shows lines, and the second photo shows what appears to be blurred and smoothed out lines. So you can imagine why this is beautiful on the skin.

It really helps blur the lines, and allows any product to glide onto the skin. You can imagine your concealer not sitting under your eyes. Powder products just go on the skin so beautifully. I really am impressed with this primer and will be buying it to put in my Pro Kit for those clients with oily skin. I will update if I try it on my skin when it is dry, but I can imagine it will also help products not sit on dry patches.

Tarte tinted pressed finishing powder is $34 at Sephora.com

This product review isn't full of bright swatches,and glitter like most of my reviews. This is probably one of the least exciting reviews visually. However, this product is so great that I knew I had to share this with you.

I have oily,sensitive,acne prone skin and a lot of powders break me out. If they don't break me out, they set on my skin or in my pores and make me look like a cake face. This product has been so great to me, that I have been using it and I forgot to review it. You are in luck that I took photos before I dug into it because it isn't so pretty anymore heh.

I use a dusting under my eyes to set my concealer, and then again when my foundation is done to finish off my look. It doesn't break me out or give me any type of flashback on camera. I find that it has kept my oil from breaking through and keeps me shine free. There are a few finishing powders I have tried and they gave me those lovely little breakouts on my forehead. I love Tarte because none of their products give my skin any issues.

If you are looking for a great finishing powder, especially since it is warmer weather give Tarte a try.

If you have less pigmentation you can use this powder by itself for a light coverage. I have to use it over my foundation because I still need a fuller coverage until my scars fade a little more. The only downfall to this powder is the color range. If you need a shade darker than Tan they only have the four options. I hope that is something they are working on because everyone would love this powder!

Tarte TarteGuard 30 1.7oz $32 here at Sephora.com or where Tarte is sold!

What they say:

A portable, non-chemical sunscreen that helps to protect, moisturize, brighten, and re-invigorate skin for a youthful-looking appearance.

What I say:

I am happy to report that after using this beautiful little gem I did not suffer and breakouts or a sunburn. It has been almost two weeks since I started using this. I was afraid to put it on my face because every year I get the worst breakouts from sunscreen. So I just assumed it was going to clog my pores,my my skin oily, and break me out. However, it went on nice and smooth and has kept me from getting sunburned. I haven't had any issues with my sensitive skin, or breakouts. I also have been applying this to my hands and arms because when I am in traffic I can feel my arm getting hot. I know that it is getting sun, so I need to have sunscreen lotion on my hands and arms.

It does have a light scent that is what they call ocean's lily scent. It is very subtle and does not bother me in the slightest. I actually love how it smells when I put it on right before I get dressed. It lingers a little bit, but not enough to upset my allergies or bother my sensitive skin. Plus this adorable rubberized packaging just makes me want to reach for it and use it everyday. The purple and coral together makes this irresistible.

I want to mention that I do have acne prone,oily combo skin. I am oily in my T-zone but I have dry areas due to my acne. I find it to be working great for me, so if you have oily skin and are afraid this will only make it worse that has not been the case for me at all.

What is your go to sunscreen?
