Tarte | Amazonian Clay Waterproof Summer 2011 Collection | Swatches + Review

Tarte's Amazonian Clay products have been creating some powerful waves in the beauty world. Not sure what Amazonian Clay is? Let me introduce you! Amazonian Clay is one of nature's perfect ingredients that helps provide total skin balance. This nutrient rich clay is extracted from the banks of the Amazon River where the

nutrients are at their highest concentration. As nature's most perfect ingredient this multitasking and total skin balancing clay provides the following benefits:

- reduces dryness and flakiness
- improves skin's clarity, elasticity and texture
- removes surface oil and oil from inside and around clogged pores
- removes dead skin layers, resulting in a general smoothing of the surface skin

Check out a few product highlights below, from Tarte's Summer 2011 Collection.

Both the Eyeliner & Shadow Pots can be worn in a variety of ways.

Glow: The cream eyeshadows are super smooth and nicely pigmented. The eyeliner pots are gorgeous! I was actually surprised at how pretty they came out. The waterproof formula in both the eyeshadow & the eyeliner is definitely what makes them so likable. Once the product sets it's not going ANYWHERE! They last the entire day. I literally had to scrub to wash these off. I love it! The bronze is definitely my favorite.

Glare: I would've loved to have seen a few more brighter & vibrant colors, especially with the eyeliner pots with it being a summer collection. I love bold colors!

Would I Recommend It? Definitely, I can't wait to try a few makeup looks with each of these.

Overall Glam: I've loved Tarte's Amazonian Clay products in general for a while now, from their blushes to their eyeshadows, you're bound to fall in love with something! And the quality of their products is always consistent. The Cream Shadows and the Eyeliner Pots both retail for $22 each. And the Water Proof Eyeliner Duo's are $18 each.
