Tarte Amazonian Clay 12-Hour Blush in Dollface Swatch


Today I have a quckie post. I want to share with you my first ever Tarte blush. I was on the fence with this color when I first used it, now that I have a little more experience, I really like it.









Swatched
over bare skin - no primers


Top - swatched heavily
Bottom - blended out


This blush is very pigmented and a little goes a long way. This was my first Tarte product. I really like it and I will be looking into getting more of these blushes after my 100-day no buy. I am interested in Exposed, Natural Beauty, Blissful, Flush, Blushing Bride, and Tipsy.

Do you use Tarte blushes? Which is your favorite?
What is your all time favorite blush?

Hey everyone! Today is day three of the Valentine's series. I have a look done with Too Faced Romantic Eye palette for you. I have also done this with a more kissable lip or a bold lip, just to give you a choice. :)

 Here is a face chart to make it easier to see what I did. I will also have a video up soon to help as well. I also thought that this would help if you wanted to create a look similar but without using the Too Faced palette.


What do you think of this look? Would you wear this out on a date? everyday?
I am also testing out some ideas for makeup for my wedding, do you think this eye look would be nice?
Do you like the layout I did here? Do you like the face chart? What would make these posts more interesting/helpful?
