Tarte Amazonian Clay Blush Is An Easy Cheek Color

Tarte Amazonian Clay Blush is your standard, everyday cheek color.

Blush, bronzer, highlight – oh my! When it comes to my cheek enhancers, I like mine to be have buildable pigment, be easy to apply, and have an all day wear. Luckily, Tarte Amazonian Clay Blush checks all of those categories for cheek color. The perfect pop of color goes on soft, making this a foolproof blush that anyone can use. Available in 14 naturally radiant shades, Amazonian Clay Blush is your basic cheek color everyday wear.

Promises vs. Performance: Tarte Powder Blush gives long-wearing, airbrushed cheeks.

Say hello to a long wearing, youthful flush of color with Tarte Amazonian Clay Blush. As a blush with 12 hours of wear (thanks to the amazonian clay providing long wear), there’s no need to reapply or touch-up your cheeks. The soft, silky powder glides on smoothly and seamlessly for an easy, natural wash of color. It instantly airbrushes imperfections, gliding over dryness and texture without settling into lines and pores. With buildable pigment, you can easily reach your desired intensity without developing clown cheeks. Yes, please!

Don’t be intimidated by the shades online because they are a lot more subdued in person. I have three shades of Amazonian Clay Blush: Paaarty (nude), Exposed (nude pink), and Captivating (bright peach). These are my three favorites, and I find them to be the most flattering on all skin tones. Gently swirl your brush into the compact and tap onto your cheeks for a soft wash of color that’s going to last all day long. The pigment of this blush is ultra buildable and blendable for whatever desired cheek intensity you’re going for. The silky texture of this blush glides over any imperfections (from dryness to texture) and has little to no settling into pores or fine lines. No need for touch-ups with this blush, as amazonian clay is the star ingredient providing long wearing cheek color.

How It Compares: Tarte Amazonian Clay Blush is an oldie, but a goodie.

I feel like Amazonian Clay Blush has been around for ever, and for good reason. This blush is easy to use, forgiving in color, and long wearing. AKA, the perfect trifecta for cheek color. The award-winning formula gives a fresh, youthful flush of color to cheeks, seamlessly blending over any imperfections without accentuating them. If you’re looking for a more naturally formulated blush, this one is your classic, no frills powder blush.

But, there is a blush I think is better: NARS. NARS Blush comes in 26 shades, ranging from sheer pinks to deep mauves. The silky powder is just as blendable (if not more) than Amazonian Clay Blush and builds up from a soft wash of color to a deep, saturated look. And, NARS Blush is home to one of the best selling, most universally flattering blush shades available: Orgasm.
