tarte

tarte is one of my very favorite brands – the combination of cute packaging, high quality products, and reasonable prices is perfect!  While I’m normally impressed by their offerings, I’m especially enamored with their holiday offerings.  Whether the lady you’re shopping for is a hardcore fashionista, an eco-friendly femme, or just looking for a bit of glitz, tarte’s got the perfect gift.

Gifts Under $25

Tarte Three Carats Mini Cheek Stain Set – $25

“Three is definitely a charm when it comes to these best-selling bejeweled beauties!  The ultimate stocking stuffer, three carats mini cheek stains are infused with Tarte’s natural, t5 super fruit complex and available in three brand new, limited edition shades:  brilliant (shimmering champagne), princess (shimmering rose), and cushion (shimmering deep apricot).  The iconic, best-selling and award-winning cheek stains give you the perfect flush by easily blending into skin for a naturally rosy glow.  Cheek stains can be worn alone, or under or over foundation and powder and the easily buildable coverage gives you compete control so you can glow where and when you want to!  These blinged-out minis are all dressed up with diamond-inspired lids-and we all know diamonds are a girl’s best friend any time of year!”

Tarte FRXtion 0.12 oz – $11

“Tarte FRXtion Sugar Lip Exfoliator and Soothing Balm features exfoliating sugar crystals and vitamin E vanilla lip balm to soothe, calm, and protect lips.  A built-in mirror on the cap allows for on-the-go application.”

Tarte Femme Naturale Eye Palette – $44 ($182 Value)

“Show the world your softer side with this subdued palette packed with essentials.  A reusable purple case is accented with a fabric flower applique and filled with 10 universal eyeshadows, a double-ended brush, and a double-ended eyeliner.  The magnetic base allows you to refill and reuse, which helps to eliminate environmental waste.”

Tarte Crown Jewels Lipgloss Multi-Gift Set – $39

“3-gifts-in-1!  Each individually boxed set of 5 deluxe, brand-new glosses is attached to the lavish silver gift box – so you have the option of giving the entire set as one jaw-dropping gift or you can break apart each individual gloss set to create 3 deluxe gifts for friends, family, or co-workers.  The glosses are richly pigmented and glide on smooth, while helping to protect and repair lips thanks to our t5 super fruit complex.  Thanks to the easy-tear perforated tabs, you can simply and cleanly tear each set out without a trace.  Each individually boxed set comes complete with a removable gift-giving label on the front and a beautifully etched note on the back – so no wasteful wrapping paper or cards needed!  We’ve done all the work to make you the ultimate gift-giving goddess this holiday season.”

Tarte Femme Fatale Eye Palette – $44 ($182 Value)

“A reusable, gold-studded case that includes 10 eye shadows and an eyeliner that creates a smoldering smoky eye.”

Tarte Treasure Chest – $52

“The annual, best-selling palette is back and 30% bigger!  As a gift to you, tarte has added an entire layer of eye shadows – yes, that’s an extra 16 full-sized eye shadows! – all for the same great price.  Whether gifting your friend, sister, mother, (or maybe yourself!), this breathtaking palette is sure to draw “oohs” and “ahhs” as each decadent layer is unveiled.  Packed with 32 new and full-sized eye shadows, 16 new lip glosses, and the best-selling Park Ave Princess mineral powder bronzer, a new shimmering highlighter, and four new powder brushes, this Sephora-exclusive bejeweled palette is sure to be at the top of everyone’s gift list and a stable on everyone’s vanity.”

Tarte Natural Beauty 7 Piece Natural Complexion Collection – $54 ($157 Value)

“A natural complexion kit that includes tarte’s best-selling, high performance natural skin-perfecting favorites.  Available in fair, light, medium, and deep shades.”

I was sent several tarte holiday samples to review, and I’m blown away!  The Crown Jewels lip gloss tower is my favorite, as I think it’s pure genius!  I’m always looking for gifts that can divided amongst friends, and tarte has provided the perfect way to do so – and without sacrificing any of the awe that will accompany the gift!  I’m also digging the silky shadows and beautifully blending blushes – tarte’s holiday collection is a home run!
