Tarte Lipsurgence lip tint

Tarte is AMAZING!

I've tried both the Matte (Fiery) and Natural (Moody).

I really like the Matte, soft & light feeling.

I have completely used up the regular!

Almost cried when I got rid of the empty tube.

Luckily, Tarte makes more!

For your radar: Tarte has wonderful gifts on their website as well as a completely different, yet equally great collection on Sephora.

Tarte LipSurgence natural lip stain

Moody

With all of the vitamins and nutrients in this, I really wondered if it would look good.

It does!

Wonderful color, sheer enough for summer, very layer-able.

Wears well, no funny taste/smell, makes my lips feel great!

I really want to try the Lust (red) next.

Oh yeah, Tarte makes it cruelty-free and does not use weird chemicals-- totally great!

How do I love this? Let me count the ways:
1. SPF 15
2. Brilliant red color. Not over-the-top, but like I just had strawberries.
3. Glossy, but not so much that I could be seen from space.
4. Makes my lips feel smooth.
5. Not greasy, cakey, or waxy feeling.
6. I can put it on without looking. Okay, I do this with most things, but this doesn't get all sloppy.
7. Smells like vanilla & cinnamon.
8. Doesn't taste like dish soap. Doesn't really taste like anything.

I am all about it. My only druthers is that they no longer make the shade Americana, which was (oddly enough) more of a cherry-red. That was quite a color.
