Everybody know Tarte, right? I mean you must live under a rock if you don’t know this brand! It is known for the magical Shape Tape Concealer that every beauty blogger out there, including myself, love it so much. Tarte is one the biggest brands out there who is known for its natural high-performance, high-quality products. Tarte Cosmetics beats the drum that their products are formulated without parabens, mineral oil, phthalates, triclosan, sodium lauryl sulfate, and gluten, and that they are cruelty-free. Tarte has definitely fulfilled our makeup bag’s appetite. You may know all about the shades in their palettes, however, if you have never tried any of their products yet; prepare your wallet because after reading this, you’ll buy Tarte makeup products immediately. Here are 5 reasons to start using Tarte Cosmetics!
Maureen Kelly the founder and the CEO of Tarte Cosmetics is what all women should aspire to be (ambitious and tender-hearted) and I’m deeply grateful for her work. When I heard the story of Maureen Kelly starting Tarte, I was deeply humbled and inspired. Creating makeup was a dream of Maureen’s since she was a child and even created her first makeup product – a cheek stain – at the tender age of 6, yes SIX years old people! But simply having this gift wasn’t enough to give her success. She had to take leaps of faith and pound the pavement, working out of her apartment until she finally got it to launch into Sephora in 2003.
And I felt more connected to Kelly when I’ve found out that she was pursuing a PhD in psychology at Columbia University when she dropped out to create the company. And since I’m currently studying psychology, now I feel like I have two things in common with Kelly: the love of makeup and the love of psychology.
Did you know that Tarte Team has extensive clinical testing to help back up their claims? For example, the Lifted Sweatproof Mascara had to survive an actual sweat chamber and withstand heat over 100 degrees. And their testing isn’t for nothing: The Lights, Camera Lashes mascara, which was proven to increase lash volume by 424 percent, was tapped as the best natural mascara in our 2016 Reader’s Choice Awards.
When Tarte cosmetics launched the Tarte Shape Tape Concealer, it became the holy grail-status product of the brand. One Shape Tape is sold every 20 seconds. Can you imagine how crazy that is?! That’s like 4,320 on a slow day in total. And the love is only growing. Because I’ve never seen till this day a single makeup artist or a beauty guru who hasn’t tried and loved this product before.
I don’t know how crazy you are when it comes to packaging, when me personally I can buy a product just because I like the packaging. And Tarte cosmetics, you can see how much hard work they put in each and every product just by being creative and expressing their creativity in their packaging because they make the most beautiful eye catchy packaging ever. However, they not only care about the packaging and they forget about the product. No!!! Like they will make a packaging that looks cute and good but the quality of the product is even better!
Tarte Cosmetics dedicates a mammoth budget to influencer events, regularly flying YouTube vloggers and Instagram beauty gurus on all-expenses-paid holidays. Past trips have taken influencers to exotic destinations like Bora Bora, Turks and Caicos, and Kauai. Tarte unifies these travel campaigns under the hashtag #trippinwithtarte. Tarte uses the events as part of a wider strategy to foster deep and long-term relationships with influencers, thus turning them into ambassadors of the brand. But also to reach millions of consumers both before, during, and after each #trippinwithtarte influencer event. Which I think is a very genius marketing strategy to promote their brand. To be honest, it is a dream of mine to travel with Tarte and get to live this magical experience with them – I actually have it written on my vision board so I really hope that one day this dream will come true!
I have decided to build my blog on my own by just learning the basics and taking it step by step. Writing about topics that I enjoy has always been a passion for me and giving this a try would be a dream come true. I hope you'll get empowered and inspired through my blogging journey!
