Tarte Smooth Operator Amazonian Clay Finishing Powder Review

I received a sample size of the Tarte Smooth Operator Amazonian Clay Finishing Powder in my May Ipsy Glam Bag. This silky finishing powder feels amazing on my face.

What’s to love?

The Tarte Smooth Operator Amazonian Clay Finishing Powder looks and feels like the It Cosmetics Bye Bye Pores Poreless Finish Airbrush Powder. It’s silky smooth and helps with my fine lines and imperfections. It’s oil free and does not look cakey on me.

Full-Sized price: $33

Rainforest of the Sea Tarte Foil Finger Paints Shadow Palette

New from Tarte is the Rainforest of the Sea Foil Finger Paints Shadow Palette and I am all over this one! I LOVE metal shades and this one comes in a blingy textured aqua blue case that is calling my name.

Image Credit: Tarte

This gorgeous palette has “textured foil formulas” and it looks amazing. I am a huge fan of the metals so this is right up my ally and I love that they are so textured. The metallic shades tend to make my 47-year-old eyes look younger.

You get 3 foil finish shades and a split pan on the end with 2 sparkling shades.

  • gold coast (champagne)
  • sailor’s delight (burgundy)
  • sea glass (chocolate)
  • stargazer (sunset/silver)

I especially love the burgundy and chocolate shades and this palette is on my Spring wishlist.

Price: $39
