It makes a statement when Clarisonic partners with a beauty brand to produce a beauty bundle.  I mean, they already have their own skincare products that are perfectly compatible with the cleansing and treatment tools they manufacture.  So why partner with a brand outside?

Answer:  Because they know their customers demand the highest possible quality results!  So when you see Clarisonic bundling with say Philosophy's Purity Made Simple Cleanser, it makes sense.  And when Clarisonic decided they wanted to extend their presence in the beauty market with their Opal Sonic Infusion System, they went to whom?  Tarte Cosmetics!

Here's why:
Clarisonic wants to give skincare aficionados the ultimate set for creating a sultry, defined and flawless eye. The Opal Sonic infuses serums into the skin more effectively than manual application. As the device is moved in small circles around the eye area, its soft applicator tip delivers products with more than 7,500 gentle micro-massages per minute. Serums and creams are absorbed more deeply and evenly, enhancing their ability to promote healthy, hydrated, and younger-looking skin.

Exclusively available now at Sephora, the new, limited edition set pairs the sonic device that with a selection of skinvigorating™ products from Tarte. The Opal gently infuses Anti-Aging Sea Serum beneath the skin’s surface, instantly hydrating, smoothing and brightening the eye area in just one minute.  Follow with Tarte's pioneering products made with high-performance naturals. Tarte's Lifted Natural Eye Primer with Firmitol gives the effect of younger, smoother eyes while acting as a base that locks shadow in place all day and boosts pigment payoff. With a fully refreshed eye area, follow your eye treatment with these other healthy, nourishing cosmetics from Tarte. Check around ... (seriously, google, check beauty reviews, other stores, etc.) you'll see the Tarte products in this set are truly in a class all their own in terms of their natural, nourishing ingredients and what they offer in way of enhancing what you already have to create the appearance of beautiful, enviable, head-turning eyes. 

This set contains:
Opal Sonic Infuser
1.7 oz Anti-Aging Sea Serum
2 Replacement Applicator Tips
Universal Voltage Charger
Wristlet Carrying Case
0.24 oz Tarte Lights, Camera, Lashes! Mascara in Black
0.003 oz Tarte EmphasEYES™ Aqua-Gel Eyeliner in Black
0.08 oz Tarte Lifted™ Natural Eye Primer with Firmitol™


Sounds fantastic!  Though seemingly pricey at first glance, this is actually quite reasonable for this set of products and tools (compare Opal elsewhere).  The Opal Sonic Infusion System With Tarte Limited Edition Set is available only at Sephora and retails for $185.

Tarte was the makeup for Abaeté’s Fall 2009 Fashion show, which took place at The Altman Building in New York on Friday, February 13, 2009. Abaeté’s Laura Poretzky was inspired by Les Incroyables, a group of gentlemen who formed in the 18th Century after the French Revolution.


(click to enlarge for detail)



Beauty.com celebrity makeup artist Tina Turnbow used this inspiration to create an “old world masculinity meets modern day femme” makeup look for the show. It was all about a monochromatic, dewy complexion with a touch of color. The eyes had a hint of gloss and the lips were slightly rose. Tina was able to achieve the look with several tarte complexion products such as Smooth Operator Oil-Free Natural Foundation with SPF 20 and The Eraser 4-in-1 Natural Concealer.


Tarte products are available from them directly online and Beauty.com.



Tarte's ReCreate Anti-Aging Foundation with Wrinkle Rewind™ and SPF15 promises to decrease facial fine line and wrinkles and increase moisture levels as a natural foundation with clinically proven anti-aging results. It does!

Every time I try something new from Tarte I'm reminded of why I adore this brand so much. They truly are committed not only to quality products, but good-for-you ingredients and technology. That means something to me. I want that!

The first of its kind, ReCreate™ is a natural, anti-aging foundation powered by Wrinkle Rewind™ technology; a proprietary complex which helps decrease the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles while increasing skin’s overall moisture. Micronized minerals immediately brighten the skin while providing SPF 15 UVA/ UVB Broad Spectrum protection.

Clinical Results:

  • Significant increase in skin elasticity, firmness and resiliency an average of 22% after two weeks of use and 43% after four weeks of use.
  • Significant reduction in the appearance of fine lines and facial wrinkles an average of 39% after four weeks of use and 67% after six weeks of use.
  • Increases skin’s overall moisture by 52.82% within 15 minutes of application.

What you won't find in this foundation:
  • Parabens
  • Petro-Chemicals
  • Phthalates
  • Sulfates
  • Dyes
  • Talcs
  • Fragrances

REVEW: This is a foundation light and airy in texture, almost like mousse or a whipped consistency that is easily dispensed from the bottle through the pump dispenser. I've been using the product for a couple of weeks now and have had no problems with dispensing as we sometimes find with other bottles over time. The foundation itself is generously pigmented with minerals and blends effortlessly into skin. The coverage is what I'd call medium, covering problem areas and redness very nicely. The skincare and sun protection benefits of this foundation make it extra special. Skin is hydrated and lines appear less noticeable. It's also long-wearing. I have combination skin type; I have only to apply the foundation once in the morning for all-day coverage. It emhances your natural complexion without appearing overly dewey or matte, just healthy and luminous. I applied a little primer (no moisturizer) and set the look with a light translucent mineral powder and was set to go all day, no dryness, not wearing off, fully sun-protected. Nice!

The foundation comes if 12 shades ranging from porcelain to a rich, dark chestnut and retails for $37 per bottle. Tarte ReCreate Anti-Aging Foundation is available online at Tarte, Sephora and Beauty.com.

Quite literally, the palette affords you hundreds of different looks and with high quality products at your fingertips.

Your kit even includes eye brushes and mascara to complete any look you favor! The palette covering is a soft, guilded animal skin motif and contains all the trays easily with no mess to worry about. It closes securely with magnetic backing, so is an easy travel companion as well.

All products are loaded with skinvigorating™ ingredients: vitamin E, beeswax, rice bran wax, carnauba wax, and mineral pigments.
