Swatchfest Sunday (Well, Monday): The Tartelette Palette Vs Tartelette in Bloom

By Kwilliford @ExquisiteEczema
This post isn't going to be a review of either palette. Well, at least not a full one. Since I have both of them and I have not done this kind of post in quite some time now, I figured this would be the perfect topic. Thank you Tarte for including some shimmering shades in Tartelette in Bloom.
Even though this isn't a review, I will say that I love the original Tartelette palette. I reach for it quite often. I have only used Tartelette in bloom twice, but so far I am liking it. The metallic shades are gorgeous. Oh, and it smells just like the Too Faced Chocolate Bar palettes.

Overall, Tartelette in Bloom is more warm toned than the original. I still need to try it out some more before doing a review, but so far I am liking it a lot. I hope you find these swatches helpful. I meant to post this yesterday, but between running errands and catching up on stuff around the house, I got a little behind. But better late than never, right?
