Tarte Shape Tape Foundation Matte

Image
Tarte Shape Tape Matte Foundation Price: $39 (kind of steep but that’s usually prices now?) *I would really suggest trying the shades out in store when they come out at ulta because online won't do you any good and it oxidizes* PROS: -vegan & cruelty free -coverage is medium and can be layered to full -semi-matte (not matte matte) -even with that coverage it looks natural and seamless -fragrance free CONS: -shades have weird undertone?
