Tarte Amazonian Clay Blushes

So I was at working at Ulta the other day and I was cleaning up some shelves when I noticed this little Tarte kit that came with a smaller size Amazonian Clay blush in Dollface and a smaller Park Avenue Princess Bronzer for $12.  Being the sucker for amazing deals and tiny products, I decided to purchase it even though I did not like Dollface when I purchased it the first time - really, what did I have to lose?  The bronzer itself was probably worth the $12.  After using the blush again, I retract all previous statements about the Tarte Amazonian Clay blushes.  I'm not sure if I had darker skin at the time or if I was just shocked with the larger price tag but I love this blush, especially when used with the bronzer.  It is easily build-able, last all day long (really, 12 hours is not an exaggeration) and is actually flattering.  I liked it so much that I've put the little blush in the makeup bag I carry in my purse and purchased a full size one as well as the color Natural Beauty which is a red from the Tarte website.  I love how the packaging is the same color as the blush so I don't have to go looking through my kit trying to figure out which blush is which and they come with a really great mirror.  On another note, shipping was amazingly fast - I placed the order in the afternoon and when I checked my tracking information the next morning it had already been delivered!!

Dollface is a light pink that you can build up to be more intense or wear lightly for a slight flushed look.  This color is great to wear with a darker eye because it doesn't take focus away from other parts of your face while still making you look alive.  I think this will be most flattering on light skin tones and wouldn't put it on anyone darker than an NW30 because I imagine it can come out looking quite ashy.
