macaron blush & glow™ duo

The macaron blush & glow™ duo pairs a cream blush with a radiant powder in one compact, so colour and glow come from the same hand. tarte frames it as a dessert-themed two-in-one — a cheek product built for a clean pop of colour without hunting through two palettes.

What it actually does

• Two finishes, one compact. A cream side for colour and a radiant powder side for light — you can wear either alone or stack them.
• Includes a blend bar. The tarte blend bar™ built into the duo is there to diffuse the cream off the brush before it reaches your cheek, so the first touchdown isn't the strongest.
• Designed for layering. tarte's own direction is swipe, blend, then stack or wear solo — the two sides are meant to work together, not compete.
• Travels as one piece. Cheek colour and highlight in a single compact is one fewer thing in the bag.

How to use

1. Pick up the cream. Dip your brush into the cream side.
2. Diffuse it. Tap the brush onto the blend bar™ first — this is the step that keeps the cream from landing as a solid dot.
3. Place the colour. Blend along the cheekbones and across the bridge of the nose.
4. Add the glow. Sweep the radiant powder onto the cheeks and the high points of the face.

Questions

What is the blend bar™ for?

It's the surface you tap the loaded brush onto before applying. It spreads the cream across the bristles so the colour arrives diffused rather than concentrated in one spot.

Do I have to use both sides?

No. tarte's instructions explicitly allow wearing either one on its own, or layering the powder over the cream.

Fingers or brush?

The technique tarte gives is brush-based, because the blend bar™ step depends on tapping bristles into it. If you apply with fingers you lose that diffusing stage, so work in very small amounts.
