It goes without saying that I’m a big fan of tarte cosmetics. They were at the forefront of the eco-beauty movement, bringing green to the mainstream. So, I was thrilled when tarte contacted me to see if I’d like to give some of their eco-chic to our readers.
Summer has arrived in L.A. pretty late this year (we have sunshine 364 days of the year, I’m not complaining) and while I’d love to have the freckles and golden skin that I had as a kid, these days I get my tan from a bottle and slather on the SPF. Come summer, I put away the pale pink polishes in favor of corals, but I also make changes in my makeup as well. When tarte sent me their new park ave princess matte bronzer ($29), it was the perfect replacement for my usual cheek color . My sister, whose porcelain skin only knows how to burn, was curious to see if it could give her a bit of color. And it did (thanks for modeling, Mae). Applied gently with a kabuki brush across her entire face she got the flush of color she wanted. And it works with both of our skin tones (mine is more yellow, hers pink). Unlike the original park ave princess mineral bronzer, this powder is matte and it’s waterproof. Perfect in the approaching triple-digit weather.
While using SPF can prevent future suyn damage, tarte's ReCreate anti-aging line helps to repair damage that's already been done. And they've added a silicone-free face primer ($32) to the collection. Ideal for acne-prone and sensitive skin, this primer is clinically proven to increase moisture (but is still safe for oily skin), decrease wrinkles, and increase skin firmness. And, when applied under the park ave princess bronzer, it helps to keep makeup from fading.
As always, tarte has formulated these products to soothe and nourish your skin without a paraben, petrochemical, synthetic dye or fragrance to be found.
You can find these tarte products online at tarte.com, beauty.com and dermstore.com, and both online and at Sephora stores nationwide.

I love Tarte products! Your sister looks great with the bronzer! I'm very fair too, and oily. The bronzer looks like it would work well and last on my skin. I have been wanting to try the primer too. Makeup always looks better with a good primer :) Thanks.

I LOVE Tarte! They are my "go to" makeup brand for a reason. Everything of theirs I've tried, I've loved. So far I haven't had the opportunity to try their bronzer yet, but am so wanting to! I also haven't had the opportunity to try the Rewind primer, but I've heard wonderful things about it. I love the Tarte regular primer, and that's the only one I use now. They've converted me to their eye primer and mascara also. What can I say, I'm a Tarteaholic...lol! Tarte is such a wonderful brand that I wish I owned at least one of everything they made! Really, really, really want to try this out and would SO love to win it!!! Trying to buy a house right now, so all extra money is going to pay bills and into savings. My makeup budget is about gone. :( Need to win to get any new makeup at all!! Please, pretty please??!!

I love Tarte stuff, and I love giveaways! I also have very pale skin, so decent bronzers are awesome but really hard to find.
I love tarte!

I always read the Beauty Banter in my emails and I love all the tips. I'm a fan of Tarte as well but have yet to try their PAP Bronzer and their new Silicone-Free Face Primer....even if I don't win I'm very glad I read this issue of Beauty Banter (I've been so busy I haven't been able to check my email everyday lately) so thank you for letting me know its recommended for my sensitive and acne prone face :)
And thanks to your sister Mae as well for demonstrating the before and after with the bronzer! I must get it now! :D
