Lip Love: Tarte Cosmetics's LipSurgence Natural Matte Lip Stains

By TheGlamtastic · September 8, 2010 · 0 Comments ·

It's the start of a new relationship, and all you want to do is makeout like you're in middle school again. Sadly, your lips aren't having it! They are dry, cracked and tired after just 30 minutes of hot and heavy makeout.


You need a lip saver STAT! I recently tried Tarte's LipSurgance natural matte lip stains and no offense to my oh-so-sexy husband, but I may have fallen for these peppermint-infused, smooth, glide-on lip pencils with a flawless finish.


These chic to-go lip crayons also, according to Tarte, are clinically proven to increase moisture content by an astonishing 6,000% after 28 days of continued use. LOVE!


The secret formula that makes these lip savers so hydrating? The recipe is a powerful blend of vitamin C, vitamin E, peppermint oil, jojoba oil, and LipSurgance technology, which appears to be Tarte's little secret.

Please note: I did not receive a press sample.
Working in the beauty business, I have the opportunity to meet  with a ton of fabulous celebrity hair stylists, makeup artists, manicurists, etc. Whether it's behind-the-scenes at New York Fashion Week or at a blogger Q&A session, I absolutely love hearing it from the experts.

All beauty experts have their secrets  to create an A-list celebrity's luscious locks, voluptuous lips and flawless nails. I love having access to some of the industry's trendsetting beauty insiders and now, you can too!

Eco-chic, A-list makeup artist Tina Turnbow and Tarte have partnered to create the new Flower Child Natural Eyeshadow Palette. This adorable palette comes with 10 eco-friendly gorgeous shadow shades, the Brush with Greatness double-ended eyeshadow brush and the double-ended eye liner that will allow you to create a laundry list of fabulous eye looks.

In addition, Tarte has also included a sample of their clinically proven Lifted Natural Eye Primer with Firmitol, to help keep the sexy cat eyes or smoky eye that much longer, as it works to decrease the look of fine lines and wrinkles. It's never to early to start fighting the aging process!

The inspiration for this darling palette? This eyeshadow kit was inspired by a combination of rich earthy hues, as well as Spring runway and red carpet trends. The palette is blossoming with buds of color and offers a wide variety of tones that can help you seamlessly transition your look from the boardroom to the bar. Love that!

All eyeshadows are also free of parabens, sulfates, synthetic fragrances or dyes...the list goes on! None of us need additional chemicals in our lives!

Luvin' for Your Lips: Tarte Vitamin Core Lipstick

By TheGlamtastic · August 28, 2009 · 0 Comments ·
Make your makeup work for you! Go for a racy red lipstick or pleasant pink shade that nourishes and moisturizes lips from the core, while it provides your pout with a blast of color. 

Tarte Vitamin Core Lipstick is a lip color and treatment in one (who doesn't love multi-tasking beauty)! This lipstick fuses long-lasting, smooth lip color with BORBA's nutraceutical blend of vitamins that work from the lipstick's center to nourish and improve the health of your lips, while protecting them against environmental damage (smog poor air quality = skin aging). 

With a skin-soothing recipe of grape seed extract, which helps to the lips produce elastin to maintain that perfect pout, vitamins A and C that help fight back against free radical damage and acai, an anti-inflammatory that helps promote cell regeneration, your lips will be loving this lip color.  

These long-lasting, non-drying lipsticks are also formulated without parabens, phthalates and are mineral-oil free. Love a lipstick without all of the added chemicals! 

What's lipstick are you luvin' this Fall?
