tarte

Like the UD Alice in Wonderland palette, I bought these to experiment with high end cosmetics.  I thought these 2 palettes were a great deal, 10 e/s for $44.  These came with eye liners and primers. (sorry no pictures of those)

Eye Couture Day-To-Night Eye Palette 

 This was the first tarte palette I bought and it's very nice and pigmented.  The only con is some of the shadows are very chalky but that's more with the lighter e/s.  The darker ones (L-R: 3rd on top and 5 on bottom are so pigmented.)  The packaging is so cute.

Now this palette I haven't used as much as I wanted to and I am not sure why since these e/s are more my style. These were disappointing to swatch without a primer as you will see in the pictures but with a primer these are FAB!  My favorites are the terracotta (5 on top) and the purple glitter e/s (5 on bottom).

While I like these 2 palettes and think they are a great value, I feel the lighter e/s are hit or miss while the darker e/s all seem to be highly pigmented and lovely.  Like most of my other makeup, I need to use these palettes more often.
