Im a self-confessed make-up junkie but im not a big fan of eyeshadows (good for me at least i get to divert the funds to something else haha!)
but once I see a lipgloss, lip tint or blusher that catches my attention, I wont be able to sleep sound at night without ordering it.
Living in the Philippines carries just 1 con for me -- stuff from sephora/ebay.com are not as accessible as if I were in the States.
It makes me wish Sephora decides to open even just a single branch here.
(does anyone have the same wish as mine?)
Especially during times that I see something im dying to try,
like these Tarte Amazonian Clay Blushes
description from Sephora :
A long-wearing, solar-baked blush that lasts up to 12 hours.
What it does:
Infused with natural clay harvested from the banks of the Amazon River and naturally baked by the sun, this nutrient-rich blush benefits all skin types for a fade-free flawless finish for an amazing 12 hours. Inspired by Tarte's best-selling shades of cheek stains and lip tints, the colors range from soft to vivid to suit a wide variety of skintones. For oily skin types, Amazonian clay minimizes oil in and around pores to balance skin and keep product in place. Those with dry skin will benefit from the clay's nourishing and hydrating properties, which naturally restore skin's moisture. Combination skin types can rely on its ability to zero in on skin concerns and deliver benefits to restore complexion harmony. The result? Blush that wears better, longer, and truer!
What it is formulated WITHOUT:
- Parabens
- Sulfates
- Synthetic Fragrances
- Petrochemicals
- Phthalates
- GMOs
- Triclosan
What else you need to know:
This blush features the following Skinvigorating™ ingredients:
- Vitamins A and E, two natural preservatives that act as anti-inflammatory emollients and protect against free radical damage
- Vitamin C, an antioxidant that fights free radical damage and prevents oxidative stress and premature signs of aging, while brightening the skin
- Amazonian clay, a nutrient-rich, multitasking, skin-balancing clay that reduces dryness and flakiness, improves skin clarity, elasticity, firmness, and texture while removing oil from the skin's surface for smooth application and wearSize: 0.2 oz
Ive always been a fan of Tarte products, personally love their
Cheekstains & the Clean Slate Primer .
Now its killing me that im thinking of trying these Amazonian Clay Blushes
since i heard about it from sis Ali (from GirlTalk).
Me wants 5 shades. Im skipping the Berry/Plummy Shades and the Nude one since im into cool pinks and vibrant blushes lately,
Here's a list of the shades I wanna have :
Gorgeous, arent they?
And I find it cute that they coordinated the color of the compacts with the color of the blush it contains. Coolness!
Wont have a hard time digging and scanning my blush stash each time i look for a certain shade. :)
Can anyone kill this lemming please?
Or can anyone conduct a pool order for Tarte Clay Blushes? Nyahaha!
Tried them? Want them? Share your thoughts. :)

ReplyDelete@emily - i heard theyre nice, cant wait to hear your feedback once you receive your tarte blushes na, :) To date, ive cut down my list to just 3 tarte amazonian clay blushes. amused and blissful is out of my list na. im thinking amused may look a bit like Cargo Amalfi which i already have kasi.
ReplyDeletejap, an american friend told me she think dollface is too light for her so she didn't get it. it wouldn't show up daw kasi.
ReplyDeletee pano yan thats what I want! huhuhu! pati yung name, gusto ko!
@ chel - same here bakla, i love the dollface stick eh, its sheer, light but it shows up on my skintone naman, may shimmer ba daw si dollface? how did it look on her? parang highlighter lang daw ba? sadness.. :( i dunno which shade to pick na. :(
