shape tape™ corrector

Tarte shape tape™ corrector is colour theory in a stick. Instead of piling concealer over a dark spot or a red patch, you cancel the colour first — then conceal. Ten shades cover everything from undereye darkness to redness to contour and brightening, and the creamy, hydrating formula is built to layer under shape tape™ concealer without creasing.

What it actually does

• Neutralises before you conceal. Tarte's claim is that these correctors cancel the look of blemishes, dark spots, discolouration, redness and dark undereye circles rather than just covering them.
• Creamy, not drying. The formula contains plumping hyaluronic acid plus nourishing mango and shea butters, which the brand credits for its smoothing feel.
• Full coverage that holds. Tarte describes it as long-lasting and full-coverage, and says it won't crease.
• Designed to layer. It's made to go under shape tape™ concealer — the brand says the two layer seamlessly for a flawless finish.
• Ten purpose-built shades. Each one has a defined job and a recommended depth range — the guide is below.
• Brand testing. Tarte lists it as vegan, cruelty-free and dermatologist tested. In its Tartelette™ testing, 100% said it feels hydrating and comfortable, doesn't look cakey and doesn't crease; 97% said it worked seamlessly with their concealer, made skin look smoother, and didn't settle into fine lines.

How to use

1. Swipe it straight onto the concern. Apply directly to the spot, patch or undereye you're correcting — no need to coat the whole area.
2. Blend it out. Fingers, a sponge or a brush all work.
3. Finish with concealer. Top with shape tape™ concealer for the smooth finish the two products were designed to give together.

Questions

Which shade do I need?

Start from the concern, not the shade. Dark undereyes and discolouration go to peach, orange or red depending on your depth. Redness and blemishes go to green. Dullness goes to yellow or pink. Yellow casts go to lavender or blue. White brightens or custom-mixes, and black adds depth and contour. The table above lists the recommended tone range for each.

Do I still need concealer on top?

That's how Tarte intends it to be worn — correct first, then finish with shape tape™ concealer over the top. The brand says the two layer together seamlessly.

Will it settle into my fine lines?

Tarte's position is that it won't crease, and in its Tartelette™ testing 97% said it didn't settle into their fine lines. Individual experience varies with how much product you use and whether you set it.

Can I buy more than one shade?

Yes, and many people do — for example one to neutralise undereye darkness and one for redness elsewhere on the face. Each shade is sold individually.
