Brand We Love: tarte Cosmetics

You probably remember that Amanda was vegan for a year and a half, and in that time, she did a lot of research on vegan products--not just food, but household products and cosmetics.  This is when she fell in love with tarte cosmetics. And even though pregnancy changed her diet (though she still loves her veggies), she is still always on the lookout for the best safe and natural products--especially with a baby around.  Here are three favorites that are worth splurging on even if you're a drugstore-makeup kinda girl (like she typically is):

1.  Lights, Camera, Splashes Mascara-$19

I used the Lights, Camera, Lashes version before they came out with this waterproof one!  Due to the amount of tears I've been shedding recently, I think I need to invest in this next.

2.  Amazonian Clay 12 Hour Blush-  $26

Blush is one of my absolute favorite makeup products--I'm surprised more people don't wear it because it really perks up your skin and makes you look healthy and glowy (IF you're applying it right...). This blush is healthy for your skin and lasts all day.  The best blush I've ever used, and the color selection is pretty amazing.

3.  Amazonian Clay 12 Hour Waterproof Concealer-, $22

 Why yes, I do have zits and broken blood vessels and undereye circles.  But this concealer can fix them all. I love that it's natural, so I'm not clogging my pores any further. And again, it's long-lasting, so I don't need to reapply.

I think their prices are actually super reasonable...especially if you consider that this is makeup that actually helps your skin. And it lasts a long time when you don't have to keep re-applying.  

Have you tried Tarte cosmetics?  What are some of your favorite products?  I also just noticed that they're having quite a sale on their site, so if you've been wanting to try tarte's high performance natural cosmetics, now's the time to check them out!

Amanda
