I spent some time chatting with the Tarte customer service to verify that the product I ordered was the same as the product I loved. A "It is not the same product. Zero scent, it sparkles. It’s more pink. It’s a decent enough product for that just in the sun” look on my shoulders but I’m not putting this on my face. So I kept it. But I will not order it again. I would give 4 stars for this product, had it been the product I was after. Customer Service led me wrong, so one star it is. The original Amazonian Clay Bronzer in Park Avenue Princess shade was PERFECTION. It is beyond me why Tarte would change that." — Kerri B. (1/5)
No "BRING BACK ORIGINAL this is horrible and my whole make up routine is ruined. Why take away someone everyone loved?" — Marissa (1/5)
not the same "Noooooo! This is not half as good as the original. PLEASE bring back the other one." — Ashley (1/5)
Just not as good as the original "Please bring back the original formula. I loved the light coconut smell and the build ability of the original product. The new one has a plastic odor that is not nice and goes on too heavy despite using the same application brush I always used with the original product. The original Amazonian clay product has been a staple of my daily routine for years with so many compliments of how tan I look. Please bring back the original formula." — Kacia M. (2/5)
Bring back Amazonian bronzer! "Not even close to the original Amazonian goddess bronzer. So disappointing. Tarte sold out just to change their formula to try and reinvent something that wasn’t broke, but instead made a disaster of a product. Bring back the original Amazonian clay bronzer!!!!!" — Jamie (1/5)
Why would you change a perfect product?!?! "I am so disappointed and devastated! This is not the OG Park avenue princess bronzer. This pulls so orange!! I am a month out from my wedding and now I'm left scrambling trying to find something comparable. I cannot comprehend why tarte would make such a drastic change to such a beloved holy Grail product. Even the OG matte version was incredible and perfect for cool, neutral, and even warm skin tones. You are not Westmore beauty!! This product is absolute garbage and looks like a bad '90s bottle tan. Milani silky matte in sunlight is the only thing I've found that matches the matte original but it doesn't have the glow this had. Please bring back this original product!!!!" — Jame (1/5)
Extremely disappointed "Please bring back the Og!! This is not even close to the og I loved for many years :(" — Heather (1/5)
park avenue princess matt bronzer "BRING BACK the original park avenue princess matt bronzer - As a long time tarte client I am very disappointed." — samantha (2/5)
Disappointed tarte user "If you are looking for the og park ave princess this is not it. It is no where close to the cool toned bronzer it used to be with the tone being more orange. Why would you discontinue the perfect matte, waterproof bronzer that has been my go to for years. Extremely disappointed." — Elizabeth M. (1/5)
