As we approach the holiday season, the beauty world gets bombarded with crappy gift sets every year. You know, the ones you buy for people or yourself because you think they/you might like one color in that 20-piece lipgloss set, and it turns out, the one you thought was great isn’t even that nice. That is so NOT the case with Tarte’s holiday collection, which I’m super excited about.
These gift sets truly are treats. And the packaging is so pretty and non-holiday-ish, which I love. See what Tarte has in store this holiday season.
Carried Away Set ($54, LE): This kit packs everything you need to take your look on the road. Tucked inside a metallic gold and purple ikat-print folding travel case is an eye palette with 24 eyeshadow shades ranging from matte neutrals to shimmery lush eggplants, forest greens, and charcoals. You can create so many looks for day or night from these shades. But that’s not all–you also get 8 mini Maracuja Lip Glosses; of a mini Amazonian Clay blush in Adventurous (shimmery rose); a mini Lights Camera Lashes mascara in black; a mini translucent finishing powder to balance skin and combat shine; and a fluffy face brush. It’s everything you need (and more) to hit the road in style.
Here’s a close-up of the 24 shadows included in this set.
SmolderEYES and Skinny SmolderEYES Collector’s Set ($39, LE): SmolderEyes is a chubby, highly-pigmented eyeliner that’s awesome for getting a smudgeable, just-got-out-of-bed eye look.
