Tarte Amazonian Clay Blushes

I got a few more amazonian clay blushes since my original review here and wanted to show you some more swatches in case you are considering picking up one. There are four new shades listed on Sephora's site but are listed as out of stock. (One of which is the shade Adore, which my boyfriend purchased for me in the Tarte Discovery Kit)



I first wore this blush to a wedding I attended in November. I was impressed that this blush lasted pretty much the entire day even through dancing. Tarte advertises that the blush lasts 12 hours. I would say it lasted on me between 8-10 hours with little fading.

The pigmentation of these blushes are amazing although the picture above really does not do them justice. The first time I tried this blush (in Amused), I packed my brush with blush and had really pink cheeks and had to blend it out. So I would definitely recommend starting with a light hand and slowly building up the color.

While they are on the pricier side (I picked up two with a discount/three were gifts) at $25, I 
really think they are a great investment. Best blush I've tried yet.

So have you tried Tarte's Amazonian Clay Blush? What's your favorite Tarte product?
