Sorry for the super long follow up to the Tarte Holiday 2012 My Picks post. As usual, life happened. But I will really try my best to get back on track (for my sanity’s sake!) starting with this holiday’s smolderEYES set. Let’s take a peek!

My Thoughts: The package is a metallic pink and gold ikat patterned box. This set contains 5 regular smolderEYES and 1 skinny smolderEYES. I like the color selection this year compared to last years kit. And I’ve found the perfect use for them…to line and smudge on my lower lash line to accentuate any eye look. I have tested champagne, gunmetal and ash violet for wear and all withstood 8 hours before I took them out. I used the sponge tip end to smudge out the edges without any difficulties.
If you’re looking for a way to make your eye look pop, I suggest you give Tarte’s SmolderEYES a try.

Ahh I got this set too and now it’s on its way to Belgium (fingers crossed the customs will let it go. It’s really not a lot of stuff)! I’m so glad to hear you have no problem with wear, and the colors are absolutely beautiful! I can see myself having a lot of fun with all of them 🙂
