Tarte shadows don’t work for me, so I’ll be passing on this!
Gah! I kinda want this. Shadows look great! French Riviera is calling me!
I love this set! Especially the Muse blush. But I suspect those who don’t love Tarte won’t be sold. So great for a natural or smoky look.
These eyeshadows are perfection! From the colour variety and quality judging from the swatches! Must-haves, and my Xmas list is growing dangerously long too!
Is it me or are the colors all a bit blah?
No, they are a bit “blah”, but that’s what I like about them. I get my “color” with NARS & UD, but due to my lifestyle, sometimes I need shades I can just throw on, and have them do the work for me, and tarte always seems to deliver on that point!
Agreed – their brand isn’t know for hyper-pigmentation or color that goes pow. It’s in line for their brand. It doesn’t work for me either, but I can see this potentially being a workhouse palette for some.
This is such a STEAL!!
The cheek stain looks very pretty!
Some nice shades in that palette but to tell the truth, I’m sort of “paletted out” again. Having said that, Play Nice (Nice is where I met my husband!), Marseille the World and French Riviera look like lovely colours and Le Cordon Bleu looks to be an amazing purple/blue with good pigmentation (but I’ll await your review).
The colors in the palette look amazing – colorful but subdued for everyday. I hope it performs well!
Not that I need another neutral-type palette, but this one is pretty and has a nice range of shades!
Toni, that’s just how I feel about it but even though I know I don’t need it, I’m so weak when it comes to neutral palettes!
Anybody else get the feeling an OPI former employee is now working at Tarte? 😉
Denise, I was wondering the same when I read the names of some of the shades.
I kinda noticed that too
Looks too warm toned on the whole for me to get it!
Ooooooh, this looks really interesting… I’m only recently jumping on the holiday gift sets bandwagon, and I’m seriously considering this one if the quality is there!!
A little OT, but my daughter and I were having a conversation about this name yesterday. How is it pronounced? I say it like tart. She thinks the at the end makes an a sound, like tartea. Hopefully someone can answer. Lol this was a very serious debate in my house.
I think it’s probably like tart because there’s no accent on the e, like é. Also, they came out with a gift set last year or so called “The Tarte of Giving”, so it seems like it’s pronounced like tart.
It’s tart. You were right. 🙂
Your version is correct. Plain “tart” is how Maureen Kelly (the founder) pronounces it on her video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aPKwbWjyEDE
Your daughter might have thought it was closer to the French pronunciation (http://www.forvo.com/search/tarte/) but the brand is American and the letter “e” in the name does not have a diacritic on it, so it’s a silent “e” 🙂 Hope that helps.
thanks all!
this looks like the V1 palette they released..how similar is it?
Not sure which palette you’re referring to because they had V2 and then changed it to V1, but that’s a very warm palette so quite different.
I’m actually digging how they are covering cooler and warmer options (from dark to light) and then including some deep and almost jewel tones for “flavor.” I could see this being a catch all palette – especially for a budding pro who wants to do a lot of beauty and wedding type makeup. Nice!
And do my eyes deceive me or am I seeing an actual range of finishes?! These don’t all look metallic! Double sweet!
I have to say, I’m pretty disappointed. I found this at my Sephora on Wednesday and swatched. The texture is ok, but only two of the eyeshadows would ever be used by me, and that is NOT worth the money. I even hated the color of the LipSurgence. I have bought these sets every year from Tarte. They had neutrals, yes, but also a few splash colors (The teal of 2012 or the purple and blue of the 2013 set – wow!) They were great travel pallets. This… this is so plain and neutral it’s depressing. It also feels dated. The huge naked push has passed to some degree and now color is coming back. I wish this would have reflected that to some degree.
But that being said, I’m kind of glad I can cross one thing my massive wish list!
Thank you for the review!
Riviera is a more unique shadow for me and I like it. But, based on the swatches, I’m not excited about its performance, as well as I don’t expect nice performances of the most of the other shades of this palette.
In spite of the seemingly obligatory bronzy-gold shades, this palette looks like it may be worth picking up, especially considering the price & additional products.
The Cheek Stain reminds me a little of NARS Multiple in Maldives, only softer & more glossy/less shimmery.
Has anyone else noticed that the new Amazonian Clay Eyeshadow palette has been discontinued from sephora? I really wanted that palette but it seems that it’s basically disappeared off the face of the earth! Strange, since it’s only been out for a couple of months… I really wanted it because of the warm colours and the pigmentation, but if this Parisienne one is up to par I might settle for this instead 🙂 I have a lot of palettes in my kit anyways.
Of course, The One That Got Away will always be in my heart…
It was LE, and apparently the “regular” 10-pans were DC’d some time ago. It seems if one wants tarte eyeshadows, they’ll have to wait for seasonal LE palettes, which of course will sell out… It looks like tarte is going the way of MAC since they were purchase by some large Japanese company…
Are you looking for the summer one? Golden days sultry nights? It’s in the sale section of sephoras site for $24. About a week ago they had all of tartes palettes marked down to about $24. They apparently clearenced everything out. That is the only one left.
Really beautiful palette and the colours look so pigmented…
I want this!!
A lot of those shadows are really bad imo. Just not impressed but I think someone who likes more sheer shades could enjoy it.
The set looks amazing and it is indeed a steal but those shadows look pretty similar.
Looks like I’ll be saving my money for the Lorac Mega Pro. Anyway thanks Christine for the swatches 🙂
Ooooh, this set is beautiful. I really like that cheek color. The eyeshadow are lovely. French Riviera is my favorite.
Hmm – this is very much like the MAC Brooke Shields palette. The only colour I like is the French Riviera. It does not look inspiring to me. Very dupable colours.
I find this very plain. At this time of year, I’m hoping and sxpecting to be wowed by something new, not something rearranged differently with added masked labels for names.. Cute and fun for a gift to give someone just entering who wants to cover more bases and have more to work/play with, whether it is great or not. I pass.
This seems like a very wearable, everyday type of palette with a few jewel or “smoky” shades thrown in but I wish Tarte had gone for something more colorful. This palette doesn’t really excite me and I wish Tarte had gone for some pops of color for the holidays. As a huge Tarte fan, this palette is a little disappointing…It seems like all their palettes are mostly neutrals lately. I prefer last year’s holiday palette and packaging. Also, the items that come with this year’s palette aren’t terribly exciting for me either…I would’ve much preferred a mini Amazonian Clay blush, several mini lip glosses, or a more vibrant lip surgence color. This set is just kind of mehh this year…and I don’t usually say that about Tarte.
The Tarte No Champagne, No Gain Eyeshadow is AMAZING! I love Tarte, and I am so excited for this!
I just got this yesterday, it’s such a cute set. It’s not very big but still a great value. The print on the bag is gorgeous! It is a very everyday type of palette no exciting colors. The value and quality makes it worth having. You can always add color from other products. I adore tarte and buy everything they make.
I love how many products you get in this kit! It definitely seems like great value if you’re new to Tarte.
I like it, but even if you don’t have time to do a full review, maybe you could just publish the overall grade? That’s my determining factor in almost any new purchase 🙂
i love tarte’s shadows and ugh if i hadn’t of already splurged for the brooke shields palette, i’d so be all over this. i need another neutrals palette like i need a bullet in the head lol 😉 but what can i say, i love them. maybe if it’s still in stock closer to the end of november or early december i may get it…
Augh!!! Why is Le Cordon Bleu sheeeeeer?!?!?!
*calms down*
OK, it’s just a sneak peek swatch. You weren’t looking for another big palette anyway. It doesn’t matter that the packaging is totally made to appeal to you, and the bag is totally (if flamboyantly) cute. Deep breaths, Syl.
😀
I have to admit, that matte navy shade (and French Riviera) strongly appeal. Maybe add ‘No Champagne, No Gain’ for a gorgeous moss/navy/gold look…
It’s not crazy to plan looks with a palette you don’t really want, right? … right?!
OMG so many great palettes out there, I am totally going to go broke!
Hi Christine
Are you still planning on reviewing this palette? You are probably very busy with all the holiday collections coming out but I was really looking forward to your review of this palette before making any decisions.
Thank you for all your hard work 🙂
