Tarte Smooth Operator Amazonian Clay Tinted Pressed Powder Review

Hey guys today I bring you the Tarte Smooth Operator Tinted Pressed Powder.
I've been searching for a pressed powder for a while that had a slight coverage, whilst providing some skin benefits. This product fit the bill.
So let's see what I thought about it. 

Product Description
This whisper-light mineral pressed powder allows skin to breathe while treating it with soothing vitamins and minerals.
This powder contains Skinvigorating™ ingredients vitamins A and E, antioxidants that fight free radical damage, and mineral pigments, known for soothing and softening properties.

The packaging is sleek and sturdy. It has the Amazon river print on the front, just like the loose smooth operator.
Similar to the Amazonian Clay blushes. On the back of the packaging there is a tiny hole, which you could stick a pin into and remove the pan from the packaging.
So you have the option to de-pot if you so please.

I have it in the shade Light.

This product feels smooth and silky to the touch. On top of that, it feels as if it has moisturizing properties to it. Which could be the vitamins and minerals it contains.
However, due to this it doesn't control oil very well. So dry skin ladies would definitely get along with this better.
Having said that, I still enjoy this product. It provides the lightest of coverage and so sets your foundation with a flawless finish. Furthermore, it does not accentuate any dry areas or settle into pores.
It doesn't kick up a dust storm either, which is a pro. Although, my preferred way of application is by using a beauty blender.

Overall, this is a nice product. Nothing amazing. I much prefer the loose smooth operator over this.
Though it is still useful, as it is compact and easy to just pop into your bag for on the go.
Dry skin ladies would best benefit from this product due to the moisturizing properties.

I rate this product a
7/10

My Pretty Zombie Blush Sample Swatches

Hey guys quick post today!
So I've recently only discovered My Pretty Zombie Cosmetics through a friend and I was intrigued.
She was placing an order and asked if I wanted anything. So, I decided to play it safe and went for the 5 blush samples.


First off, the name of these blushes are pretty damn cool. Each blush is named after a drug haha.
My Pretty Zombie Blushes range from a mustard yellow shade all the way up to a greyish purple.
So, definitely not your everyday kinda shades. But, they are certainly fun.

L to R
MDMA - Light pink with a subtle gold micro shimmer.
THC - Lilac with a subtle blue/silver micro shimmer.
Propoxyphene - Matte pink.

L to R
PCP - Muted coral with a subtle gold micro shimmer.
6 MAM - Deep lilac with a slight hint of a violet/pink duo chrome sheen to it.

I have to admit I didn't know what to expect from these blushes, as My Pretty Zombie is a small indie/underground brand. However, I am gladly surprised by how pigmented they are.
Now I know how they perform, I will be purchasing a few of the blushes in the full sizes.

My favourite out of the bunch has to be THC, that shade just blew me away. Although, 6 MAM's slight duo chrome finish is also very pretty.

If you like to be adventurous with your looks, it is definitely worth it to have a wander through their site.


Much love to Kitty for grabbing these for me.
