Those in the fashion world are already focused on Fall 2009, but I'm too excited about Spring to even think about Summer ending! So here's a recap of how famed makeup artist Tina Turnbow used the tarte Spring 2009 makeup collection on the runway!
Charlotte Ronson Spring 2009 Look Makeup by Tina Turnbow
Lucky Star meets Grunge. Charlotte was really inspired by Madonna's Lucky Star stage with the added element of grunge. I used a neutral khaki-olive on the eye, the neutral palette keeps it grungy, but the application was a bit glam. –Tina Turnbow

You need your makeup to stay put all day, but wouldn't it be nice if your primer could do more than that? I'm noticing a trend where tarte cosmetics is concerned… it's never enough for a product to do only one thing. tarte's clean slate is formulated not only to help minimize the appearance of enlarged pores and fine lines, but to soothe and hydrate the skin. I love knowing it's formulated with good-for-the skin ingredients, but you know what will keep me coming back? It's "barely there" feeling on the skin.
Ingredients include: avocado oil (rich in vitamins A, B1, B2, D and E), echinacea root extract (helps reduce inflammation), hibiscus flower extract (helps with skin's elasticity), safflower seed oil (moisturizer) and tarte's own t5 super fruit complex (a proprietary blend of five anti-oxidant rich fruits).
Retail price is $27.

Just yesterday I covered the incredible new multi-tasking foundation launched by tarte. Today's post is a glowingly positive review of yet another multi-tasker from their complexion collection, "the eraser".
I've been having incredibly good luck where concealers are concerned… stumbling into one great concealer after another! tarte's formula is keeping my lucky streak alive! Rather than simply conceal flaws, the eraser saturates the skin with "skinvigorating" ingredients to actually improve its appearance! the eraser contains arnica flower extract (to reduce the appearance of dark undereye circles), cucumber extract (rich in vitamins A & C), olive oil (to retain moisture in the skin), safflower seed oil (deep moisturizer), vitamin C (to fight free radical damage) and vitamin E (an anti-inflammatory). It's a wonder product from those who suffer from dry skin, or dark undereye circles.
As part of their Spring 2009 collection, tarte has increased the color selection from 5 shades to 10. Shades include: Porcelain 00 (new– this one is for the fairest of them all, and it works beautifully for this hard-to-match pale-face), Fair 02, Bare 04 (new), Bisque 06, Golden Bisque 08 (new), Medium Beige 10, Golden Beige 12, Tan 14, Walnut 16 (new) and Chestnut 18 (new).
the eraser is dermatologist tested, mineral oil free, phthalate free and gluten free.
Retail price is only $19!
