Aqualillies for Tarte Amazonian Clay Waterproof Eye And Cheek Palette
Tarte recently released a new collection for Spring/Summer entitled Aqualillies containing several different water/splash proof products. I decided to picked up the limited edition Amazonian Clay Waterproof Eye and Cheek palette. The Amazonian clay-infused palette contains six new eye shadows, a bronzer, a highlighter, and a limited-edition blush all tucked inside a classically elegant, mirrored compact. It's powered by skin-balancing Amazonian clay and skin-softening mineral pigments to create a splash proof look.

First let's talk about the face and cheeks products in this adorable palette. Amazonian Clay Shimmering Powder in Champagne is a
L to R: Hammock, Bikini, Barefoot, Parasol, Sun Deck, Poolside
Now on to the eyeshadows. This palette contains six limited edition shades exclusive to the Aqualillies palette; five of which are neutral shades and one pop of color shade. Hammock is a matte chocolate brown that can be used as a shadow or a liner. Bikini is a golden peach satin duo chrome, Barefoot is a golden nude shimmer, Parasol is a rosy champagne shimmer, Sun Deck is a matte light brown and Poolside is a bright shimmery turquoise. All of the shadows are soft to the touch and apply/blend perfectly on the lid. The shadows work really great together to great all sorts of looks. Below is the look card that was included with the palette, both are really stunning. Overall I love this palette and will probably be reaching for it the majority of the summer because all the products I need are there! It will be great to take on those summer vacation as well!

Biscayne Park Satin Lip Pencil is described by NARS as a pink guava. To me it’s a medium nude with brownish pink undertones. This color is a warm nude that is very versatile (work friendly) and will be easy for most skin tones to wear. Biscayne Park
Rikugien Satin Lip Pencil is described by NARS as a rose pink. I found it to be a medium pinky rose with a frost finish. It gives mostly opaque coverage, not as much as Biscayne Park
