Love this product!

I love that this has a matte highlighting color, as I find that a lot of my clients want that sculpted look without the shimmer. This is perfect for that. I do wish that it came in slightly different shade ranges, as the dark contour color is a bit much for very fair skins. That's why I took a half star off. Otherwise it's perfect! The brush is the perfect size, too. Never really used the bronzer shade much though, as I tend to use a blush tone to blend that area of the cheeks.

My new favorite foundation!

This goes on so nicely and really makes my skin FEEL amazing, which feels weird to say for a foundation. I like that it's buildable coverage, so on days when I'm having a "good skin day" I can wear a little less, and days when I need more coverage I can layer it on. And it doesn't feel or look cakey. A definite winner in my book!

Makes a good contouring color

If you're looking to contour with your bronzer rather than a contouring powder, this stuff is great. It's not too orangey, and it's matte. Goes on with a lot of color, so if you're fairer toned make sure you buff it down and sheer it out. SUPER CUTE PACKAGING!

Great for dark circles!

All the colors are slightly peachy toned, so they are great for covering dark bluish circles under the eyes. They are thick and super pigmented, so a little goes a LONG way. I put this on before my foundation though so that it blends in a bit better, so this for me is more of a corrector than a concealer. Just wish it came in more shades so I could use them on my darker skinned clients.

Not a bad deal

Bought this at Christmas time in 2011, and I haven't used it much. I found that the shadows were really shimmery in some and had fallout. The glosses are great, and the blush colors are nice. It's great that they have the cool and warm tones grouped together. The bronzer was just way too dark for me, but I love that it's a huge size. When I have a dark tan in the summer, I can use it to highlight my decollete. The liners are meh.

Very versatile

Love that it has both matte and shimmer colors in similar shades. Makes it a very versatile palette to have. Wish the shadows were a little bigger, but they are super pigmented, so you don't have to use a lot. The eye primer is pretty great, too.

Amazing!

This stuff just smells divine, and it's really hydrating. I've been using it for a few months now and love it. Got it originally as a sample from Sephora and became addicted. Haven't noticed exactly a "brightening" or fading of my discoloration at all, but it's very emollient and leaves my skin feeling super soft and not greasy at all. Highly recommend!

LOVE THESE BLUSHES!

I absolutely LOVE the Amazonian Clay blushes by Tarte! I have the color Blushing Bride and a Adventurous (available only in a limited edition set not available anymore). But overall, the blushes are great. They are super pigmented, last forever, and come in very universally flattering shades. A little goes a long way with this product.

Great primer!

I've used the shades Original, Sin, and Eden. The original formula is great and has no color, so it doesn't matter what shade your skin is underneath or what color shadow you are putting on top of it. So I really like that. The Eden one can be a bit chalky and is really best for Caucasian lids. I especially like using it to completely nude out an eyelid before a matte contoured look/50's style eye. But it has to be the right shade of skin or else it really looks awkward. I love the Sin color, the champagne shimmer looks amazing by itself and needs very little eyeshadow to create a long lasting look. I use this on clients who don't want a ton of makeup on but need a little "something". Matte colors do not blend well over it though, as the shimmer really comes through.
