A Guide to My Favorite Products from Tarte Cosmetics - Affordable by Amanda

Attention all beauty lovers! It’s time for me to share a break down of my favorite makeup products from Tarte Cosmetics. Just in time for a major sale, too.

Whether you are someone who lusts after new beauty products or tends to wear the same makeup for years at a time, I know you’ll want to hear my thoughts on Tarte Cosmetics.

Hydroflex Serum Foundation Reviews - Tarte Cosmetics - Affordable by Amanda

Tarte Cosmetics Hydroflex™ Serum Foundation

My sister asked me for a hydrating foundation recommendation the other day and I couldn’t help but this of this serum foundation from Tarte. Ever since it first arrived for me to test out last summer, this foundation has made its way into my regular makeup routine.

When I don’t have self-tan on, the shade “Porcelain Sand” matches my fair complexion nicely. The serum foundation product comes out of the tube really fast so I make sure to keep my foundation brush right underneath it.

Since this foundation has hydroflex technology, it hydrates the skin for up to 12 hours! Typically I reach for this foundation in the summer months when I don’t want to wear heavy foundation.

Tarte Cosmetics tartelette™ in bloom Amazonian clay palette

Tarte Cosmetics Tartelette™ in Bloom Amazonian Clay Palette

This is the same palette that I’ve shared for years now from Tarte. I swear by it for the perfect natural everyday eye look. The shades I tend to wear the most are called “Smarty Pants” which is a light beige tone as well as “Funny Girl” the champagne shimmer shade.

When I travel, I also typically pack this one eyeshadow palette with me because I can get so much wear from it. The shade “Firecracker” is a darker golden brown shimmer shade that I’ll put in the center of my eyelid for a night-out look.

Tarte Cosmetics H20 Balm Lip Tint

Tarte Cosmetics H20 Lip Balm Tint

What a great lip product! If you are looking for a soft and hydrating tinted lip balm, then check out these from Tarte. I wear the shade “Zen” a light buff shade all the time. Tarte lip balm tints are available in a wide range of colors, too. You can find everything from light nude shades to dark reds on their site.

Simply pop the lid off this tube and apply the crayon-like tip to outline your lips. In a matter of seconds you’ll notice how hydrating and comforting the Tarte lip balm feels. Even after wearing it for an hour or so it never feels dry on the lips.

Amazonian clay 12-hour blush in bloom - Tarte Cosmetics

Amazonian Clay 12-Hour Blush in Bloom

One of my favorite blushes to wear is the 12-hour blush in bloom from Tarte. Most of the blushes I own are matte shades and the color “Bloom” is no exception! Now you might be thinking that this “clay” blush can feel chalky, right? Well, I am happy to report that the clay ingredients are anything but drying on the face. The “Bloom” shade also looks phenomenal on all skin tones.

Tarte Shimmering Light Hightlight

Using this Tarte Cosmetics highlighter adds the right amount of champagne glow to my cheeks. Especially during the summer, I’ll grab this highlight to finish off my complexion. The champagne color gives me a luminous glow for all-day perfection.
