I have never tried Tarte shadows, blushes or glosses. This palette struck my fancy and had it all for a good price...$48 and valued at $435. I really bought this on a whim, and as always, I was drawn by the packaging. Guess I am more superficial than I thought. This set is an Ulta Exclusive. Sephora does have their own Tarte set made up for the holidays.
Eyeshadow
This set comes with 16 full size shadows. They feel very smooth and most are nicely pigmented. There are still are good many I have not tried yet. Shades range from beige, peach, purples to greens and neutrals.
Blush
This collection comes with 3 blushes and a bronzer. They are pigmented, easy to blend and are gorgeous shades.
1.) Park Avenue Princess: bronzer
2.) Angelic: highlighter
3.) Curious: rosy pink
4.) Thrilled: corally pink
Lip Gloss
3 full size Vitamin Lip Glosses are also included.
1.) Apple a Day
