despite the reviews, I think it's great!
I give it 5 stars! Wow I'm glad I did not read the reviews before purchasing as I would have been skeptical. The older formula did not work for me as I need full coverage for my melasma. This gives me my full coverage WITHOUGHT having to layer it on. It really looks very nice and as skin like as pos...

This new formula is terrible
I have faithfully used this foundation for about 7 years now. In the last year, Tarte changed the formula with this foundation and it is absolutely horrendous. I can't find a shade that matches me anymore and I thought something was off with the texture of it now and came here to realize reviews say...

Horrible Foundation
I picked this up because of the long wear foundation claims, and it has been a major disappointment. My skin gets so oily with this product that when I take my makeup off there's hardly any product to remove, despite the fact that I applied a whole face of makeup in the morning. My skin literally eats this product for breakfast. It lasts about 4 or 5 hours, then I'm an oil slick. Worse, its so thick and cakey and just doesn't blend out the way a high end foundation should. One of the most awful purchases I've made in recent memory. Their "longwear" claim should be considered false advertising.
Adjusting to the new formula
I don't use foundation everyday so I made a bottle of their old formula last a long time. But the time came for me to buy a new bottle. They don't carry my original shade so bought what I researched to be the closest in their new line. I compared the new and old and they're pretty close. What shocked me was how scented this product is now! Why! I read that they wanted to mask the earthy smell of the clay and target the larger demographic that likes their products to smell like synthetic fragrance. I am bummed about that because I originally bought Tarte for the fact they used pretty straightforward ingredients. It's also nearly impossible to find foundations that don't use chemical SPFs, which are not great for the skin long term, like using a zinc formula would be. I'll try this out for a month and see if it still breathes the same way the old formula did. Loved how it used to blend so beautifully into the texture of my skin. I do recommend putting an eye dropper full of jojoba oil before applying the foundation to give a more dewy end result.
Found my foundation!
I finally found something that doesn't make me look like I'm wearing makeup, but I feel naturally beautiful !
