Tarte
4.4
Tarte wins strong reviews for performance-driven staples—especially Shape Tape concealers, tubing mascaras, and long-wear Amazonian Clay blush—suggesting the brand works for coverage, length, and staying power. However, reviews also flag drawbacks: some formulas feel heavy or crease, shade matching skews yellow/orange, certain powders and setting sprays underperform, and innovation feels stagnant compared to newer launches.

I’ve been trying the Tarte Maneater Mascara in the trial size and so far I really like it! It gives my lashes a nice, defined look without getting clumpy, and most importantly, I haven’t experienced any flaking or crumbling throughout the day. Definitely impressed with it so far!

Finding a blush that doesn't look like clown makeup on very pale skin can be a serious challenge, but Tarte’s Amazonian Clay Blush in the shade paaarty is an absolute staple in my makeup bag. In the pan, it looks like a somewhat muted, dusty rose, but on pale skin, it goes on as a gorgeous, natural-looking flush that strikes the perfect balance between nude, pink, and mauve.

The Tarte setting spray is honestly so good. A few spritzes and it instantly gives your skin that fresh, glowing finish without looking oily or heavy. It just melts everything together in the best way. What I really love is that it doesn’t feel sticky at all - no weird residue, no tightness, just lightweight comfort. It keeps makeup looking smooth while still feeling like your skin can breathe. Definitely a staple I’d recommend.

This mascara makes a serious case for why honestly all mascara should be tubing mascara. If you are tired of raccoon eyes, mid-day smudges, and endless rubbing at night, this formula completely changes the game. It gives you incredible length and lift without leaving mascara marks on your eyelids during wear, even if you have oily lids or hooded eyes. When it is time to take it off, warm water and a gentle touch slide the tubes right off, making it so ridiculously easy to remove without any dark smears left under your eyes.
