This palette would be great for travel. I can see sticking this in my makeup bag for a long vacation along with an eyeshadow palette or two. I would get so much use out of it!

Chelsea Avatar

I would wear one of the gorgeous blush colors with a subdued eye and really make the focus on the cheeks! Maybe have a similar lip color to the blush. 🙂

Mia Avatar

This is super exciting since Tarte is not really easy to get over here, I would really experiment and try different looks but I think I would start wear each shade with a very natural minimal look just to get a feel for how each shade change up my coloring and overall look 🙂

Daniela Avatar

I’d wear them mostly to work because I’ve heard they have amazing staying power, which my oily face would certainly appreciate. I’ve been wanting to try these for a long time.

Franzi Avatar

I already have one Tarte Blush and I’m totally in love with it! It aplies so smooth and soft to the skin and the colour is awesome!
I like to wear the blush with neutral eyes and a little bit rose or peachy colour to the lips 🙂

Maria Avatar

I would wear Breathless with a fall look, since its a very natural color I can pair it with some berry lips with MAC Rebel, big lashes with They’re real mascara and a natural dewy foundation like Maybelline’s Fit me 🙂

virginie Avatar

I’d wear it multiple way…Either one blush at a time, or what I like to do a lot, is to mix a lot of shades together, that creates a unique shade!!!

Germaine Avatar

This palette would come in handy for the mornings and when I’m rushing to get ready while the boyfriend is waiting on my “5 mins more!”. No more rummaging through my boxes of blushes to find the right color! All the choices I would reach for all in this one lovely palette!

Varika Avatar

Thanks Christine! I was going to buy this palette anyway, but winning it would be even better! I don’t have many blushes already, so it would be fun to wear the different options in this palette, especially the shimmery ones. I never buy shimmery blushes, but I’d like to try the ones in the palette.

Renee Avatar

I would love to wear these blushes as I missed out on Tarte’s blush palette from last season ! These are great, long lasting blushes and good for travel !

janna Avatar

This looks like such an awesome palette!!! It would be perfect for traveling! I also really like to use blushes as crease and transition shades! Its so fun to play with makeup in different ways and I think that this palette would be perfect for that!

BETH LEON Avatar

These all are great every day colors. I tink the “Breathless” biege color I could use as a bronzer. The “Embraced” and “Irreplaceable” I would use for fall, and the “Whimsy” and “Bashful” shades I’d use in Spring and Summer.

Vy Avatar

I’d love to wear Breathless on special occasions such as wedding because the color looks so elegant and gives you the glowy looks. When I go out with my boyfriend I’d like to use embraced because the plummy color and shimmer would make me look more radiant and exphasize my light skin. Other colors I’d like to use on daily basis depending on my outfit of the day because the color payoff is quite natural.

Marieke Avatar

Awesome giveaway! I love blush palettes because it makes it easier to match the blush to the lipstick I’m wearing. I like to wear a different lipstick every day but I find it hard to get a matching blush color. With this palette on hand, it would be a lot easier. One of them should do the trick 🙂

tova Avatar

I have no clue yet, except I will of course use them on my cheeks! Maybe I’ll try them as eyeshadow too (I’m actually wearing a blush as eyeshadow right now)
I always decide what makeup to wear right in the morning, and put on what I feel like. But I believe the right most blush is going to be an everyday blush, to wear with any lip color and a cat eye, since it seems to be a pretty versatile and natural color. 🙂

Vesna Avatar

This palette is excellent for having five different shades at one place which means I can easily switch through shades everyday when going to work without giving it much thought which one to wear! I prefer simple looks on eyes so blush is a must have for me and I like to add a bit more of blush so it stands out 🙂

Lexi Avatar

I’ve mastered the cat eye, now I’m really looking forward to mixing a simple lined eye with the brightest, cheery blush I can find. Time to light up the offices this dreary fall season

Crystal Avatar

Ive always wanted 2 check oit tarte’s blushes but the testers in ulta are always messed up or gone..I think this would be worn for me for an everyday makeup look or if I was going dramatic&needed a neutral cheek color.they look so neutral in the pan/pic

Andrea Avatar

Wow, this is nice! I’ve never had so many blushes, so I’d enjoy playing with it and trying different looks. The blush on the far left looks like it could be used as a bronzer / soft contour colour too.
🙂

Karen Avatar

I am wondering if I am still entered if I had 10/14 entries, then when my page refreshes it goes back to 0/14 entries? I am curious. Thank you for this chance to win! I am very excited!!
I would love to use these blushes everyday to set the mood of my make up looks!

Kristin Avatar

I would use this as a tool to make sure I wear a different blush every day to work! Keeps things interesting, and keeps me from getting in a rut! It will also be a great compact way to bring multiple shades when I travel.

lauren Avatar

Ahhh! I am so in love with this palette. The thing that I love the most is that the colors are so versatile and can definitely be used year-round. I only have one tarte blush but I absolutely love it. They are so pigmented and beautiful. I’m a huge fan!

Erica Avatar

Although I’m pretty sure I don’t need that much of bushes, I still don’t own shades like Breathless and Bashful! Also, from the reviews, it seems they’re good quality 🙂 Totally want this!

Erica Avatar

Just realized I didn’t comment on how I would use it, got too excited! That’s perfect to wear it everyday, since it claims to be longwearing, it would be perfect to use it before going to college…no need for touchups!

Terry Avatar

The palette is freaking gorgeous! I love those color for a natural flush look. Oh and to have it on hand at all time is awesomeness. Thanks for the giveaway doll! Can always count on your blog reviews.

I would love this palette. I’ve already gone to Sephora to see if they had it in yet. The colors look so wearable. I love the Amazonian clay formula and the packaging would look great on display! I think anyone of the blush colors would be perfect with a variety of looks.

Brittany L Avatar

I would love the wear the peachy color with a cute peach/pink lipgloss. Or maybe that mauve-y color would look nice with my new Kat Von D Lovecraft? I use blush everyday and I think it’s so much fun to experiment every morning. It’s my zen, happy, cathartic, self love time in the morning.

Aisha Avatar

This would be perfect to give as a gift to my grandmother! She is slowly getting into makeup with me, but is super hesitant at purchasing the more higher end products. She is, however, a big fan of Tarte and their “pretty boxes”. These colours are perfect for her as well, all soft and peachy.

tarte pin up girl I would wear breathless with a terracotta matte lipstick ,
and , embraced with a plum lipstick , with my hair parted at the side, and some vintage acrylic bead pearls. I light pin up 1940 look, with a touch of Rockabilly and Glam clothing.
for sure with just a f hint of brown black mascara, a hint of espresso eyeliner on the eyelid a some loose skin colored face powder for the eyelids. The only accent is on the lips ,with a hint of blush of course,

Brianna Avatar

I’d love to use it to brighten up my mornings! By the time I cover up my redness, shadows and pimples, I’m colorless! I need blush/bronzer to avoid looking like a ghost!

Audrey Avatar

I’d love to experiment with wearing all the different tones on my skin. I’m getting ready to graduate college, and looking for a long wearing professional new make up look for interviews.

Ellen Avatar

I like layering bright blush colors over a taupe or tan contour, or a more muted color blush to give a pop of color without overwhelming my very fair skin.

Julie M Avatar

My boyfriend lives in England and I live in Denmark, and so I travel to England quite often and I need to be mindful of the amount of things I bring! I can’t go down on makeup though, so I always end up bringing too much…. This would be an awesome palette to bring! I love blush and I always take up too much space trying to bring every single one. This would save so much space!

As for how I’d wear it, I definitely see myself using the bronzy colour on an everyday basis, just with a ton of mascara on my lashes and brightened under-eye area. I love that simple, fresh look! All the other colours are right up my alley too, though. It’s a really pretty palette!

Celine Avatar

I would use each blush thought the holiday season to do a variety of looks! Thanks for the contest, would love to win tins as I haven’t tried Tarte blushes yet and have heard so many great things about them.

Celine Avatar

I would try out each blush throughout the holiday season for a variety of looks. Thanks for the contest, I had my eye on this as I haven’t tried the Tarte blushes before, but have heard so many great things about them.

Diana Avatar

I would wear this palette every single day! It has beautiful colors that can be used as highlighters and blushes for me. I’d be able to use it for day for a natural look or for evening for a more dramatic look, depending on which shades I choose. Whether I win this or not, I plan to buy this palette before the end of the month!

Kamila nadeem Avatar

Hey thanks for the great contest! I would die literally if I win this palette lol! Because I don’t have any tarte blushes in my collection and i love to shop in holiday season so you can get more products in less !

Nikki Avatar

I love the pink blush- i reckon it’d be the perfect just come out from the cold colour, id wear it with a brown neural eye and pink lipgloss to match. I haven’t had the chance to try out any tarte products and would love to try these raved about blushes plus this looks great to travel with!

Aditi Avatar

I love coral blushes because they suit me, and this blush looks like they have the best combination of shades! I’m looking forward to pairing these with golden and bronze eye shadows 🙂

Elana Avatar

I’m OCD-level sequential with my makeup and like to use stuff up in order… is that weird? So I’d probably focus on one blush at at time and use it up… even from left to right because I’m a total weirdo >_<

Becky Avatar

With fall weather coming in, I would use this palette to experiment on layering blush colors and especially using the darker mauve colored blush since it seems to fit the change in season.

Allison Avatar

This palette would be my first venture into Tarte’s blushes 🙂 I’ve always heard so much about them, swatched them in store… I’d be so excited to finally use them in my makeup routine!

Mari Avatar

I would love to win this I don’t have anything similar to this or any of the blushes that come in it I would use it for travel and to be a part of my daily routine it makes it easier as a mom to have a lot of different products together rather than pulling them out separately.

Ilka Avatar

I love blushes! I had read many reviews about tarte’s blushes and it would be really great to have a blush palette to travel or carry around on my purse.
Thank you for the opportunity.

alicia Avatar

Sadly, I am just NOW starting to get on board with blush. I own one blush (sad, I know….what’s wrong with me?) that is much better suited for the winter months, but come summertime I’m left bare! I would love to test out and hopefully get some use from this sweet variety 🙂

Clover Avatar

I LOVE using palettes for versatile options. I would rock this palette on my cheeks (of course) but also…I Luv using blush as shadows on the eyes. The neutral tones in this blush palette are great transition shades on the eye lid…& go perfect w/ every season.

Leah H. Avatar

I’d love to wear the Irreplaceable shade with an all-mauve fall look. Dark taupe on the eyes, Irreplaceable on the cheeks, and a dusty mauve matte lipstick.

yasminabijay Avatar

I love your page by the way, I really love you♥…. this palette is really awesome I just cannot explain my desire to have one .. with regards to its quality and pigmentation that is wearable any day, I know this is great because you wouldn’t have this as a giveaway if you, yourself doesn’t like it…

Ignatieva Avatar

I would really love to have this as I have always wanted a tarte product but it is way too overpriced here in Singapore. This set looks like a complete set and I can definitely use this whenever I am travelling around. Thank you for the giveaway Christine ♡

Ignatieva Avatar

I would really love to have this as I have not yet owned any tarte cosmetic products. in Singapore is more expensive and as student it’s difficult to afford tarte. Thanks Christine for the chance to enter the giveaway ♡ if I win i will be super happy since this palette looks very complete in terms of colour therefore can be used for travelling purpose

Elisabeth Avatar

These blushes look really nice, and it has a good variety. I would probably use Breathless for a soft, natural glow, Whimsy for a sweet girly look and Irreplaceable could be a nice fall/winter color if I used it lightly with my light skintone.

ann Avatar

I am dying to try the first left shade! It looks very peachy compared to the rest. the palette would be great for all year round since it’s so versatile and has a great color range!

Lucia Avatar

This would be the perfect palette to go from daytime to evening looks – I find that putting on a richer, plummy blush takes my look from the office to out on the town very quickly!

Angel Avatar

This palette is to die for! I would love to wear the coral hued blush with a teal eye and nude peachy lip! I don’t care what season it is, you never go wrong with a good coral!

Carla Solomon Avatar

I’d keep it neutral with the eyes, a pop of one of these blushes on the cheeks for a natural flush and some berry or pink stained lips!

Genesis Avatar

I Would love to play at round with it and create different looks, also love how easy it is to travel with it I can see it as the only blushes needed for travel.

Alexis Avatar

Believe it or not, I’m 29 and a huge makeup fan, BUT I’ve only started wearing blush about a year ago! I’ve always hated my naturally rosy cheeks and only recently have found a flattering shade of blush. These different shades would be perfect to experiment a bit more and get me more comfortable with wearing blush!

Nicole Avatar

I’d probably mix the blushes to make a custom shade…have never tried Tarte blushes or any product for that matter so this would be a great intro…I have heard such great things!!!

JCSanDiego Avatar

While I like to experiment and put different looks together, most times I’m simple, but sophisticated, where by I usually have my blushes pull double duty as a blush and perfectly matching eye shadow…with the help of some primer of course. This is my go-to look most days and I jazz it up just a bit more when the mood strikes me. 😉

Hex Avatar

dude these blushes are gorge! I wouldn’t just put them on the apples of the cheek, I would extend them out more and use a dewy highlight since these look so matte.

April Avatar

How I would wear this is every day when I go into work, I usually always have contouring/highlighting going on typically pretty natural so this would be perfect for that! Then, it’s always easy to dress it up or down based on what I am doing 🙂
