Tarte Double Duty Beauty Limited Edition Eye & Cheek Palette in Classic Courage Review & Swatches

Hey guys! Tarte is having a 30% off,  Friends & Family sale this week (April 12-15th).  Use code FRIENDS, if you want to shop & get 30% off today (April 11) c/o @trendmood1 on Instagram. This is NOT a sponsored post and I have no affiliation with Tarte or Trendmood. I'm just letting you know, because Tarte has come out with some amazing products this year. I purchased some Tarte products a couple of weeks ago from Ulta (when they had their sale) and wanted to share my thoughts on each this week. One of the products I purchased was from Tarte's Double Duty Beauty Collection (only available at Ulta or Tarte) was the Tarte Double Duty Beauty Limited Edition Eye & Cheek Palette in Classic Courage. The Classic Courage palette is warm toned, but there's also the Star Power palette which is cool toned. I SUPER LOVE the Classic Courage palette! You're given five eye-shadows (3 shimmers & 2 mattes) and a blush. The shades are gorgeous. I loved their Poppy Picnic Palette (which is on sale btw) from last year, but this Classic Courage palette is much richer and has a lot more depth! Smile On is a rich shimmery chocolate brown. Rosy Outlook is a shimmery pinky-peach. Rise & Shine is a light matte beige. Lucky Penny is a shimmery copper color (why of course, right?) and Trailblazer is rich matte chocolate brown. The Courage blush, I would definitely consider it to be in the mauve family. It looks like a mix of pink, rose, mauve & brown. It's truly gorgeous and would look great on any skin tone. As you can tell I love the colors and they're really of excellent quality :) This palette fits into your entire hand. It's gold and it has a magnetic closure & working mirror. I love the positive messages on the cover of it: She dreamed, She believed & She succeeded! I think we all need to be reminded of that from time to time. I'm so smitten with this palette, I want another one! LOL It's compact enough that you can bring it anywhere. IT ALSO SMELLS LIKE CHOCOLATE! So those are my thoughts! Look for more Tarte reviews this week.

  1. This blush looks beautiful and the shades are nice too! I think this is the first positive review I have read on this palette. People are pretty hit or miss with their thoughts on this...not sure why. Looks pretty!

  3. Are those swatches for real? Holy cow, they are so intense! I have tried bits and bobs from Tarte before but never the eyshadows, should have read this earlier and I could have tried to place an order through Sephora!

  4. I still haven't tried Tarte but after seeing the swatches from this palette, I'm absolutely sold - I can't believe how rich and intense the shades are! I think it's officially time to add a little Tarte to my make-up bag. Thanks for a great review, Kim :)

  11. I must say Kim, I'm impressed. I have only tried a few Tarte cosmetics. I love rich and pigmented colours, so this looks like a palette I'd be keen to try. I'm glad that you swatched them, because I didn't think they would be that pigmented. I also like that it's travel-friendly! <3

  15. I love this post and I am really excited to get my hands on this. It is difficult for me to get Tarte products being from the UK but I am visiting Orlando later in the year so will try and hold out! Xxx
