The shadows are lovely and smooth and swatch beautifully on the fingers, but tend to sheer out on the skin. The dark and light shades are the best in this palette while some of the mid tones are a little less pigmented.

All shades are able to be built up to create a deeper look or used lightly for a sheer neutral wash of colour.

The Tartelette palette is perfect for those with more mature skin or for ladies who are a little scared of shimmer and glitter (which can look ageing) The shades can be used together for an all matte look or combined with a highlighting shade (try using your fave highlighter or illuminator to add a little shine.
