Here’s a sneak peek of several of the new products/shades from recent Tarte Launches; I’m not sure when it will release to other retailers, but I purchased everything via tartecosmetics.com myself. (Naughty, by the way, was released a couple of weeks ago, I’m only now just getting around to swatching it.)

OMG, Tarte, you are killing me with those single shadows!! They look awesome! Is that the Rainforest formula?? I think I need Scarlet, Speakeasy and Grind for sure. And those brown lippies are bringing me back to the ’90s – love Crop Top. The Seduce blush looks pretty, but the other 2 look dry. Can’t wait for your reviews!

The Young, Wild, and Free palette doesn’t look so great, especially that chunky glittery shade, but everything else does. The lippies are actually quite different from each other, which I wasn’t expecting. I’m eager to see reviews for the metallic shadows: Scarlet, Scandal, Grind, and Poker Face are my favorites. I love the looks of Risque and Seduce, but the other blush looks too light and too yellow for me.

I’am wondering how Seduce will compare to Tarte Blush in Exposed, it’s my fav blush! Also hoping the Exposed hilighter will be as great as the blush

Yesss! Thanks for posting swatches, Christine! I’ve been so curious about the Tarte single shadows since their release earlier this week.

Way to market to the Gen Xers, Tarte! I predict this 45-year-old will be sporting brown lipstick come Fall — NO REGRETS. I’m looking forward to your reviews, Christine!

Not yet? I’ve got 20 years on you, and I’ve gone greige. And not in the hair color, either. There are so many choices now, that you are bound to find a bunch you like.

Wow, I’m liking Scarlet, Scandal, Whiskey shadows. I don’t usually go for super metallics, they don’t flatter me at this age, but may be worth it because they’re such great colors. Also Risqué and Seduce blushes. Definitely will have to check them out in store.

I really like the nude lippies, I think all of them except Choker would work for me. Naughty looks cool, but I think it’d look terrible on me, so that’s a pass too.
The eyeshadows though, wow.

I feel like Seduced must be really close to Exposed blush. I like Exposed but I really have to build it or it doesn’t show up well on my skin.
The eyeshadows look really nice! So does the palette, but my last two palette purchases from Tarte were disappointing in terms of texture so I’ll probably pass (I got the Energy Noir and one of the Double Duty palettes).

Faves:
Lips — Crop Top, Rave.
Eyes — Poker Face, Sinful.
Palette — very nice if one doesn’t already have these earthtones.
Overall, this collection takes me back to the 70s!

Oh, wow! I wasn’t expecting a release like his from Tarte! Rave is very nice, hoping it will work with my skin tone. Scarlet, Scandal, and Speakeasy all look wonderful. I hope they continue to expand their single shadow collection.
