This is an amazing product just to look at in the container. It's so, so vivid. It does take some build up to get that vivid color on the lids, and even then it's slightly sheer, but the end result looks great. It blends great with other Colour Pop colors. I was a little disappointed in how easily the shadow was pushed around in the pot by my applicator, and seeing the bottom of the pan after just one use. I did use a lot (see my "Fairy" look), but I thought the pan would be deeper. After a while, the glitter on the swatch on my arm was all but gone and it was simply a matte hot pink, but I didn't wear it on my eyes long enough to see if the same would happen to a spot not subjected to as much disturbance. Also, be warned-- even with makeup remover, this will make your skin PINK wherever you applied it! It's a beautiful color, but I had to remove stars for the glitter fallout, amount in the pot (though for the price it is pretty good), the consistency in the pot, and the staining.

This is such a cute and whimsical red, glittery gloss. I love the bright color and the red glitter inside it. It takes a few layers to really get the coverage of an "opaque" gloss by itself. It smells amazing, like other Anastasia vanilla-scented lip glosses, which is why I buy most of my glosses from them (other than the amazing color selection). It looks super good over other red lipsticks as well. One star off for the opacity.

O M G - This stuff is BEAUTIFUL. The swatch here on Temptalia first interested me, so when I went to Sephora to swatch it in person and fell in love immediately. It was pretty pink when I swatched it on my hand, but then putting it on my lips it turned out SO GOOD. This is my new favorite gloss of all time. It has a beautiful reflective gold pigment as well. It's not sticky, and the angled applicator makes precise application a breeze. It smells fresh and pleasant like other BITE products. The only warning I have is to try to control yourself not to go through it too fast! 🙂

This stuff is BEAUTIFUL!! The color is so amazing! It's extremely glittery and shiny and has an awesome reflective quality. The pigment is great. The applicator is a little awkward and it's difficult to gauge whether you have too much or too little product on it, but it's fine because the product is buildable. The glitter does have some fall out. Overall, this is one of my new absolute favorite products.

This is my second favorite Tarte shade, next to Dominate in the same palette (Pro-to-Go). It's such a lovely warm gold, goes on easily, and looks amazing with the rest of the colors in the palette. It upgrades an every day eyeshadow look into an eye-catching standout.

I got this on clearance from Target and I absolutely love the color! I was searching for it when I saw the swatch here on Temptalia. It\'s so shiny and a warm-hued metallic pink. As a gloss though, it\'s pretty sticky even after having it on for a while. I didn't wear it very long, but when I wiped it off, my lips were still a nice healthy pink-- so make sure you use a makeup remover if you want to get all of it off. One star off for the goopy (but tolerable, hey, it's lip gloss) consistency.

This is one of my favorite Tarte shades! I got it in my pro-to-go palette. It's subtle enough for an every day look, but also a bold copper/red on its own that adds a great touch. I love the amount of shimmer and how easy it is to apply.

This has been my quintessential matte black shadow for years. I use it to supplement my eyeliner to create a smudged look. I also use it to fill in my (black) brows. It's pigmented, has staying power, and a little goes a very long way!
