Tarte Sweet Kisses Lip Set

(L-R: Coral Blossom, Plummy Rose, Angelic Nude. F: Exfoliant)

I'm a huge Tarte fan and I wanted to share with you guys a promising deal if you guys are looking for some new lipsticks to add to your collection. I was originally looking for a neutral, my-lips-but-better shade that was moisturizing but still had some color. Ultimately, I ended up wanting to get Tarte's amazonian butter lipstick in plummy rose but after browsing on Ulta's website, I came across this set of 3 Tarte lipsticks with a Maracuja Lip Exfoliant retailing for $34.00. 

Each Tarte amazonian butter lipstick retails for $17 while the exfoliant retails for $16. Buying these products individually would cost $67 which means the total savings is about 50%. For a higher-end brand, this would be a smart purchase to make.

 This is by no means new, but if you're looking to save on a set of lipsticks, this is one way to go. There are two different sets you can choose from: "Pinks" and "Peachy Nudes," I chose the peachy nudes set since plummy rose was included in the set. The lipsticks themselves are smooth on the lips and feel like a balm, which is exactly what I was looking for. The colors also seem like they will suit pretty much anyone which is another great plus.

The lip exfoliant isn't so much of an exfoliant as it as an oil for your lips. There are miniscule (almost non-existant) beads in the oil, but all the same it feels incredibly nourishing on the lips. I like to take some of the oil, rub it on my lips for a couple minutes or so, and then rinse it off. My lips are way less cracked afterward.
