Tarte's Poppy Picnic Palette Review

17:32



Tarte never lets me down with any of their products, it hands down has to be one of my favourite brands! When I walked into Sephora in late August, I was doing the usual rounds. Urban Decay, Nars and Benefit until I noticed a golden halo of light coming from the Tarte section. Angels literally sang to me. I found the 'Poppy Picnic Palette' and I immediately had to swatch and buy it. It's limited edition so can you really blame me? I have been using it to on the daily to spruce up my natural makeup routine and I can honestly say I am so happy with this purchase. If you love Tarte Cosmetics as much as I do, you probably already have your little mittens on this guy. If you are a beginner to makeup or are still trying to decide whether or not to buy it then I hope I can be of some help.

First off the packaging of this palette is absolutely beautiful! It uses pink, gold and purple to make up the poppy designs. It is also in a very sturdy case that clasps, so you shouldn't be worried about it coming open. When you open the palette up it has a mirror inside that is the size of the palette itself. 




Moving on to the actual Eyeshadow Palette; it comes with six natural matte shadows and a beautiful peachy/pink shimmer blush! The colours in the palette can all be used for light day looks, or for darker nighttime looks. It just makes me feel all warm and cozy whenever I use any of the colours. My favourite shadow from this palette has to be 'Peach Poppy', it's an amazing colour to sweep all over your lid. I also love the colours 'Barefoot in the Grass' and 'Sweet Tea' for in your crease or for a transition shade.


Left to Right:
Summer Breeze, Sweet Tea, Ice Cream Cone, Barefoot in the Grass, Peach Poppy, Picnic Basket, Glisten
The Blush, 'Glisten' takes the picnic basket for me though (ha see what I did there) If you use a light dusting over your cheeks it looks like your face is glowing. The "I-just-went-to-the-beach-and-played-volleyball-like-a-Victoria-Secret-Model" glow. Sounds like my kind of 'Glow' right?    



All jokes aside, this is an amazing eye and cheek palette from Tarte.  This is also a great palette for all the beginners out there. The colours are all buttery and easily bendable. The only downside for me is that this palette does not come with a brush, which would have been really nice. You can pick this up online for 46 dollars Canadian + shipping. Alternatively you can take a trip to your local Sephora and snatch one up for the same price. Whatever you decide to do this is a great palette at a pretty affordable price. Have a 'Peachy' day!
