Can you believe that while we are all still scrambling to purchase Christmas gifts AND make a Thanksgiving dinner, our favorite cosmetic lines are already done with next seasons collection? I think it's because they have a lot of assistants... I want an assistant...
I was checking out some previews and came across Tartes collection. The soft tones and brow-perfecting tools launching will mi mick the seasons hottest trend of nude nude nude! All across Spring 2010 Fashion Week we saw neutral eyes, matte and natural lips, and ultra-perfect skin and eyebrows. It seems to be the designers way of easing those eco-resistant beauty queens into a greener routine by starting with making natural fashionable. No, we aren't seeing arm-pit hair on the runways...yet?
If you aren't familiar with Tarte, it's definitely worth your while to check out. The lines mission is to nourish your inner diva with minimal impact on the environment. Earthy ingredients like coconut oil and minimal packaging make this line stand out even further. My favorite product of theirs right now is their refillable eye-shadow palette. I know how much it sucks to have emptied all of one color in your daily quad and then have to purchase a whole new quad to get your favorite back. It's a colossal waste of packaging and makeup, not to mention your precious beauty budget. With their palette, you can add your 9-5 eyeshadow before your weekend smokey eye has run out. This is a luxury that I don't see too much in retail lines. As a professional makeup artist, I use refillable palettes all the time because I can replace what I need only, customize, and add to. Once you start using a palette like this, you will never go back. If the price seems a bit steep to you, think about all the money you have thrown away in the past on almost-full palettes.
