Speaking of wild jungle cats, your nephew was very, very cranky this afternoon. 🙂 When the weather’s nice, like it was today, all he wants to do is party outside (don’t we all?).
“This is BULLS___T!”
We are sooo close to Friday; I can almost taste it!
I hope you had a nice day today. Mine went really well. I had a lot of fun doing that smokey eye tutorial earlier, and then tonight I watched quite a bit of secret shame TV, namely Hollywood Exes on VH1, and Million Dollar Listing on Bravo.
Now it’s time for bed. Talk to you soon.
Your friendly neighborhood beauty addict,
Karen
Rachel says
Always love the release of kits 🙂
dani@callitbeauty says
Ooh, I’m liking the Eye & Cheek Palette! I’m so glad it’s being released at Sephora — that means I have access to it! 😀
Rae // theNotice says
These all look so cute! *flails* I love that they (finally!) included their blushers in one of their clutch-style kits — I’ll have to check it out once it lands in-store in Canada 😉
Becca @ The Beauty Sample says
Wow, that Amazonian Clay Eye and Cheek Palette looks ridiculously amazing! That purple and taupe eyeshadow!! Those blushes!!! WANT!
Paris B says
These look amazing! I have Tarte shadows and I love them, and I also like the clay blushes. I love the one that has both blushes and shadows in one. I might have to get them through a friend since we don’t get Tarte here for now 🙁
Sue Lin says
Thanks for the swatches! Really lemming the on that Call of the Wild palette…the colors look great.. Don’t know about the Loving cheekstain though, tad too glittery for me.
Sonya says
How beautiful are those palettes?! I’m especially loving the blushes!
Sunny @ Mostly Sunny says
I’m a sucker for palettes, so even though I think I own many similar colors, I’m still interested in the two!
Too bad Tabs is being grouchy! I love male cats precise because they can look so condescending though LOL
Kim says
I love Tarte and think the packaging is really cute on the quads. 🙂
Karen says
My friend…I know you’re not always an eyeshadow kinda girl, but one of these days I will get you in a full on drag queen eye. Mark my words.
Kim says
HAHA! I’d probably stroke out on you. 🙂 I’m just kidding – I’m sure that if I ever had it done by someone who knew what they were doing (not me), it could look awesome. Hey, I read Jeremy Renner used to be a makeup artist. I’d be up for letting him turn my eyes into little drag queens. hee hee!
Nina says
OMG. OMG. OMG.
You know I love me some Tarte …. and your post makes me want to buy them all. All, you hear???? 😀
And ive been doing so good w/ being selective about what I buy too! 😀
Awww dear Nephew Tabs – stop being cranky! Youre just like your Cousin LOL. He’s our ornery cat!
Karen says
YES! I had a feeling you’d like this collection. Check out the blush at Sephora. It’s very pretty!
I think Tabs and LOL belong to a secret cat society of grumpy felines.
Nina says
Theyre both tabbies, which is probably the reason…. 🙂
Im going shopping soon-ish for the hubs’ birthday, ill definitely look for the palette!
Ruchita says
I’m not ready to think about fall yet, but the 8-Shadow palette is so pretty! I’m really digging the colors.
That pic of Tabs reminds me so much of Mingus! He’ll lay on the floor and pout if he doesn’t get to go outside enough.
There was an episode of My Cat From Hell where the owners had door handles (as opposed to knobs) and the kitty was able to reach up and open the doors. Luckily Mingus hasn’t tried anything like that. He just paws at the door thinking he can somehow break through. 🙂
Karen says
Aww, Mingy! I have a secret crush on him. 🙂
Okay, random, but does Mingus watch Animal Planet shows with you? Tabs really loves Dogs 101. He will stare at the scree and not move for the entire program.
Ruchita says
Aww, thanks. I’ll let him know he has a secret admirer. 🙂 That is hilarious that Tabs enjoys watching doggies!
Mingy’s not too interested in TV, but once he was fascinated by a screen saver that had some flying birds on it. I’ve read that they make DVDs especially to entertain cats, but I haven’t looked into them. I’d be scared one of the cats would launch themselves at the TV!
Stephanie C says
These are pretty! I think my fav fall palette so far. I love all the swatches posted here.
Karen says
Hi Stephanie,
Yay! I’m glad you like it. 🙂
Kiss & Make-up says
Not particularly blown away by the palettes. The cheek stain looks interesting though.
Karen says
Have you tried their Cheek Stains before? They feel so nice on the skin!
Amy says
Everything. OMG, I need EVERYTHING. This stuff is gorgeous!
Karen says
Hi Amy,
You’re so cute! 🙂 Yeah, I love Tarte too. Their stuff is so wearable.
Alison says
Ooooh. Loving the shade choices for the Call of the Wild palette!
Karen says
Hi Alison,
Me too! It should be fun for smokey eyes, dontcha think?
Amanda says
Love that cheek and eye palette. What great packaging for traveling!
Karen says
Hi Amanda,
Yes! I love that the packaging is both cute AND practical. 🙂
Lulle says
Are the blushes in the Eye & Cheek palette part of the permanent collection, or are they exclusive to this palette?
Stacy says
I think the blushes are “Free” and “Exposed”. I believe exposed is part of their permanent collection and free is new color especially made for this palette. But that doesn’t mean they won’t add it to their permanent collection later!
Katherine says
Is it just me or does Exposed in this clutch look pinker than Exposed in the permanent line (both in the pan and in the swatch)?
Lulle says
Thanks! Well, that’s good to know, because Exposed is on my wishlist… it makes the palette even more appealing!
Phyrra says
Oooh that eye and cheek palette! *swoon*
Tina B says
The first two palettes look beautiful and the first one looks like a cute clutch I should be putting my essentials in! Whoa, did you say secret shame TV? I happen to love Hollywood Exes and Love and Hip Hop Atlanta AND the new Mama Drama AND the list goes on….
Yelena says
drool @ the eye and cheek palette!
Yelena says
darn you beautiful eye and cheek palette. now if only it was a blush and bronzer then you would be mine!
Ankita@corallista says
Ahhh.. I would get Amazon Escape just for the blushes!
Yelena says
me too!
