Reviews

"Never received -very poor customer service-unless you want an auto generated AI response that doesnt address your question or problem. Money is tight. Spend elsewhere. I would of been fine if they would of actually read my email and LOOKED UP MY ORDER very apparent problem-answer was apparent"

— kimberly (1/5)

Love it

"This foundation is perfect for my complexion. I don’t need any blush because it radiates my skin tone. Many have complimented me that I have beautiful skin. I just smile because the tone definitely blends in with my skin complexion. The down side is that it’s very oily. I can’t out moisturizer in my face or else I’ll be toooo shiny."

— Joyce B. (5/5)

10 years YOUNGER!

"It's always been hard for me to match my skin tone perfectly. And I did have to order a different shade luckily the first color matched my daughter PERFECTLY! And I used the foundation match feature and it got me TOGETHER HONEY! Needless to say not only do you have 1 life supporter you gained TWO! WE'RE HOOKED!"

— BRANDY H. (5/5)

"My go-to foundation for a few years now! Stays put, doesn’t clog my pores, and evens out my skin tone. My make-up bag is nothing but Tarte!"

— Jennifer (5/5)

Good foundation

"The foundation is good, it's definately a major upgrade from store brands. I have so far been pleased with it, and I mix it with another foundatiin to get the correct color match. Both preform well for me. Looks good!"

— Chandra B. (4/5)

Love Tarte Foundation

"I have redness so I need a heavy foundation to cover that. Tarte gives me the coverage I need. I have tried other brands over the years, yet I keep coming back to Tarte. It gives ample coverage without feeling heavy on your skin. Their wide range of colors allows me to find the perfect match. I have really been pleased, and I have recommended the product to friends."

— Tammy W. (5/5)

Face Tape Foundatoin

"FaceTape Foundation offer great coverage & finish by delivering full coverage with a "natural matte" finish—not flat or dull. It has great longevity with a 12-hour, transfer-proof, and waterproof formula Extremely high coverage (often hides the need for concealer), lightweight feel, and a wide shade range"

— Sarena W. (5/5)

Great concealer

"Leaves a natural look, yet offers full coverage. I add some droplets of water to my face while applying to thin it out a little and I find it's then the perfect consistency. I've been buying Tarte concealer for a decade, it's the best!!"

— Jackie B. (5/5)

"i hope the shade fits, i love the feature where i got to put the shade of my other foundation and they would match it"

— Rodica (5/5)

""I would definitely recommend this product to anyone looking for world best makeup,Applying the product was affordless, and it blended seamlessly into my skin tone."

— Nora (5/5)

Q&A

What size is this foundation (how many ml)?
The Face Tape foundation is approximately 30 mL!
Does this product work well on dry skin? I have skin really dry skin and have to prep my face with very hydrating products so i’m worried
Hi tartelette! While Face Tape™ Foundation is full-coverage and long-wearing, it’s best suited for normal to combo skin types. Since you have very dry skin, we recommend using a super hydrating primer or moisturizer underneath to help prep and smooth your base. If you’re looking for something even more moisturizing, one of our other foundations or tinted moisturizers might be a better fit for your skin’s needs!
Do I need to set this foundation with a setting powder after I apply it?
Hi tartelette! You don’t have to set the Face Tape™ Foundation—it’s long-wearing on its own—but using a setting powder can help lock it in place and keep it from creasing, especially if you have oily or combo skin.
I have 18B because it recommended that based on my Clinique foundation in the face it’s fine but the neck area is almost to pinkish. What should I try instead?
