Tarte Cosmetics Amazonian Clay Blush Review

One of my purchases when I bankrupted myself at Sephora inside South Coast Plaza. I only purchased this blush because of it's cult following and decided to see if this would be worth the money and it is.

There is a slight shimmer to this shade (Dazzled), which gives me a healthy glow. It's a smooth blush and isn't very powdery and goes on the skin quite nicely. Dazzled is ideal if you have cool undertones. It's a perfect rose-pink and very natural looking.

As an aside from the Dazzled shade, I was lucky enough to be given the Chic to Cheek Christmas 2014 gift set and the colours in that were two colours that I normally wouldn't wear, but I absolutely love and wear just as well as the permanent line blushes.

I'm not sure I could say that I get 12 hours of wear, I definitely get 8 hours. If I can't decide on a blush, this is my go to!

In recent months I've seen my pores... grow. This has seen me dispose of my shimmery blushes as they've emphasised the volcanic craters on my face. Due to this I recently bought the Tarte Amazonian Clay blush in First Class (as part of a gift set) as it looked decidedly unshimmery.

I now need more shades. The blush blends on this skin without any effort. It gives a natural flush and looks wonderful. Most importantly it does not emphasise my pores.

It lasts well. It doesn't go patchy. This is my new favourite blush. Would recommend.

Absolutely love this blush. I have it in the shade ‘prim’ and definitely will be purchasing more shades. It looks incredible on my skin tone which is fair-light. I find it lasts all day until I wash my make up off aswell

I bought myself one of these blushes in the shade charisma after heading beauty gurus rave about them.

I was pleasantly surprised to find all the reviews completely true. The packaging is cute the blush i nice and secure. The shade I bought was is a mid tone peach with a little gold shimmer throughout. Super pigmented but in saying that it was still easy to apply with a fluffy brush. Just add a little bit at first and then build up. The shimmer was hardly noticeable on my skin which was good as I was worried that it would be too chunky.

This was a perfect shade for my super fair skin and I always get complimented when I wear it.

Tarte's blushes are so smooth and blend out super easily. They are very pigmented but also buildable if you don't want such a bold blush. I reach for this formula whenever I do my makeup because a great blush is effortless with this product. I highly recommend picking up the clutch palette, because you get a few blushes and contour shades all in one component.

I have this in the shade "First Class". It's a lovely feeling formula and is quite buildable on the skin so it's difficult to overapply and look crazy haha. I find the shade to be quite a natural one, in that it doesn't look like I'm wearing some strange colour on my skin. If that makes sense? I'm not sure if it lasts 12 hours like it claims because I only put a small amount on just for a light flush of colour. I'm sure if I wore it a bit more boldly, it would last longer.

My hubby picked this up for me in a gift set in Las Vegas and I couldn’t wait to try out my first ever Tarte product. It is exactly the same as this blush just a smaller version. The set that came with a mini mascara is now available through Sephora NZ for $17 great value for two items. It is a stunning coral colour but warmer than any other peach shades I have come across. I literally just swept my brush over and it really did pick up quite a bit of product so I see this lasting for a while. I have quite pale skin and this looked so natural and didn’t accentuate the redness around my cheeks which I have found some peachy tones can do. It lasts all day and because it is a more sheer blush can be built up for a more dramatic look or a darker skin tone. I’ve found a light hand good for my pale skin. I will definitely be purchasing this again although for the larger size I think it’s around $45 so may order another gift set before they sell out. I definitely recommend this blush and am keen to try other shades.

This is my top blush product. The pigment is fantastic, it blends like a dream, and the staying power is on point. No matter your skin tone, this product works. Bonus fun fact, this product seems to last for ever even when using daily.

The colors are super pigmented so a little really goes a long way! I have seen people over do this so be sure to use a fluffier blush brush! The color range is incredible and really has colors for every skintone, as a MUA I really appreciate that. It lasts longer than 12 hours for me if you are using a primer+ foundation+ setting powder/spray. It is truely a must have for events or anything you really want it to keep on for. I love that it works on oily skin and dry skin! It’s really hard to find products like that. Love love love.
