SPF Yourself: mark Get a Tint Shimmer Tinted Moisturizer SPF 15.

/

SPF Yourself is a series of posts featuring products that contain a sunscreen, or SPF, in them. Not only sunscreens, but lotions, facial moisturizers, eye creams, foundations, tinted moisturizers, bronzers, hair care and more will be featured. Only the best in beauty with SPF!

When the heat of summer rolls in, the last thing I reach for is a heavy, full-coverage foundation. Instead, I whip out my concealer du jour and tinted moisturizer. This, of course, also means: time to experiment! My newest trial went to mark Get a Tint Shimmer Tinted Moisturizer SPF 15 ($12).  Launching this July, mark Get a Tint Shimmer Tinted Moisturizer promises to be a lightweight and oil-free, shimmering tinted moisturizer that provides a healthy looking glow in an instant. This is an update on mark’s classic Get a Tint, as the shimmer is perfect for summer to give skin a radiant, natural glow.  Available in four shades: ivory/nude, buff/natural, honey/golden, almond/mocha (same shades as the original Get a Tint).

I admit, when I hear that a face product has “shimmer”, I worry about the dreaded glitterbomb effect. I like to avoid a super matte base as it can look a bit flat or chalky, but there’s a fine line when it comes to sparkles. I am pleased to report that mark Get a Tint Shimmer Tinted Moisturizer passes spectacularly! No glittery mess here. What’s even better? This tinted moisturizer leaves your skin with a lovely dewy glow that doesn’t smudge off on clothing or disappear in a few hours. I’m calling this one a winner!

Glow Your Way to Gorgeous with Tarte's TSV!

/

This morning I woke to a segment on QVC with their Today's Special Value from tarte, and I just had to share. I bet you will be glad I did, as this set is a perfect all-in-one set to get you glowing gorgeous. This is tarte Glow Your Way to Gorgeous 8-pc Maracuja & Clay Collection.

This 8 piece color collection features some of tarte's best waterproof and long-wearing must-haves along with the brands formulas that are soothing and skin-balancing, all packed in a super-chic carryall case. Look at exactly what you get in the collection: 

  • Maracuja Creaseless Concealer in choice of Fair, Light, Medium, Tan, or Deep
  • 12-Hour Wear Clay Blush in Peaceful, a soft rose
  • Amazonian Clay Waterproof Cream Shadow in Shimmering Taupe
  • Amazonian Clay SmolderEYES eyeliner in Fig, a plum brown
  • Lights, Camera, Lashes mascara in Black
  • Lip Luster in Sweet, a peach pink
  • Blush brush
  • Shadow brush
  • Sharpener

Most of the shades are exclusive to QVC at least until the end of the year, so if you want them, QVC is he only place you will find these exclusive tarte colors.

Lights, Camera, Lashes Mascara is one of my all time favorites, and I recently got to try the Amazonian Clay Blush and Eyeliner, and both are amazing. Look for reviews on those soon, but as they retail individually for almost half the price of this set, your chance to try them at these super low values is now.

By using these products, you can discover the benefits of both high-performance natural ingredients, Amazonian clay and pure maracuja oil, what tarte is famed for using. Amazonian clay balances, nourishes, and hydrates skin so your makeup wears better and more true. Maracuja oil helps enhance formulas so they are not only brilliantly blendable and soothing, they also improve skin's texture, tone, and moisture.

Glow Your Way to Gorgeous is not only good for a super easy look everyday, but how handy would this set be for travel?

$195.00 value, Glow Your Way to Gorgeous 8-pc Maracuja & Clay Collection is on sale over on QVC today only, for just $49.92. Such a good deal.
