Tarte LipSurgence Natural Lip Stains

Okay so I think you guys already know how obsessed I am with Tarte’s gel cheek stains and now I have something new to love from the brand. Tarte finally introduced their new LipSurgence Natural Lip Stains and they are all the rage with me right now. They have permanently moved into my makeup bag and I’m not sharing these with anyone, except you guys . These new stains come in 6 super cute just in time for spring shades:

• Moody – deep berry
• Amused – bright pink
• Lust – red
• Enchanted – rose
• Charmed – light pink
• Joy – peach

I picked up Amused, Enchanted and Lust but I think another trip to Sephora is in order for Joy and Moody. I'm just so addicted to all these stains I cannot get enough of them stains on my cheeks, lips where else! Ok I must calm down. 

When I first tried these new lip stains, I was surprised by how moisturizing they are. I did not expect them to feel so good on my lips, they didn’t feel like a lip stain at all and that makes me love them even more. Instead, they feel more like a tinted lip balm that you can build layers of color with. Don’t be alarmed by the color you see in the tube though, I was weary of trying Amused at first but it looks super great on!  It goes on lightly and like I said, you can build on it if you want a more intense stain on your lips.

Tarte’s lip stains also give your lips a glossy finish. I don’t know about you but when I wear a stain, I usually add a lip balm or a clear/sheer gloss on top for a little shine because sometimes your lips have a tendency to look dried out. I love that I can eliminate this step and keep the color on my lips for longer and the color doesn’t disappear once the moisture does.  With that said, the color doesn’t last all day…but it lasts long enough that I can get away with less touch ups, just keep it in your purse gals! 

When you consider the wear and consider the formula, which for me is a plus in comparison to some sticky, bitter tasting formulas, I’m completely OK with the wear given how moisturizing these stains are. What about you? Have you tried these stains? What do you think and which shades have you tried? Let us know all about it in the comments. LOVES IT!!!!!!! 

PINK Product: Tarte Think Pink!

Think Pink Dream in Pink I say!!!!

Tarte, this month they will be donating 20% of the proceeds from the purchase of products from their Think Pink Natural Collection to the Young Survival Coalition, a support network for women under 40 living with breast cancer. Products in this collection include some of my favorite Tarte products like the Natural Cheek Stain (wear this almost everyday) and Rise and Shine Natural Lip Stain and Gloss.

What to try something from the collection try the enbrightenmint BriteSmile Whitener & Tarte lipgloss. One side contains Tarte’s t5 super fruit™ infused lipgloss and the other contains BriteSmile®’s proprietary teeth whitening formula for easy on the go application. The result will give you something to grin about because a healthy smile is a woman’s best accessory. How cute is this!!!!! Definetly one to try, and carry in the bag at all times.

Loves IT!!!

Tarte Cheek Stain

Have you tried this??? Seriously if you haven't what are you waiting for? I have always been a fan of the flushed stain look since Benefit's Benetint. But this is even better and comes in so many different shades!

This blush is super easy to apply practically a “goof proof” application – unlike most stains out there these will not streak, leak or drip; it's SOLID.

It also gives you about 15-20 seconds of blending time before it dries down for a natural finish that’s pure perfection! Only issue I had with Benetint is that if you don't hurry and blend you will look like you have been slapped! Hence why I love Tarte; you have more time to blend, lots of margin for error.

Tarte Cheek stains are free of alcohol so they won't dry out your skin and oil so they won't clog your pores. They are infused with the tarte t5 super fruit complex™ for a healthy dose of natural antioxidants.

"The tarte t5 super fruit complex™ is a proprietary blend of the five most active superfruits: goji, acai, maracuja, acerola and pomegranate. The first blend of its kind, the t5 super fruit complex™ is loaded with naturally occurring, antioxidant rich nutrients and vitamins that have been known to deliver refining, anti-aging and skin-restorative benefits with each application."

LOVES IT!!!!!
