Is the Tarte Cosmetics Custom Kit Worth it?
Tarte Cosmetics advertised that you could save up to 70% off retail price with their Custom Kit Sale. My kit came in around 61% off which is a great deal.
The best makeup sale Tarte offers (besides the Custom Kit Sale) is their up to 30% off Friends & Family Sale.
You can catch Tarte products on sale from Tarte’s website, at Ulta Beauty, Macys, and Sephora for 25%-30% off, but usually during their own special sales (ie. Sephora’s VIB Sale).
The Tarte Cosmetics Custom Kit Sale is totally worth it.
It’s almost impossible to get 60%+ off new full-sized products! You can save so much money during the sale!
Is the Holiday Custom Kit Sale worth it based on the products I’ve used from the kit?
Not everyone cares about “percentage off”.
For many beauty lovers, value will come down to how many products they actually use from the sale.
Here’s the breakdown of my product selections, based on what I like and love based on the products in my kit:
- Glamazon Amazonian Clay Eyeshadow Palette = OKAY
- Amazonian clay tinted pressed finishing powder = LIKE
- Babassu Foundcealer skincare foundation Broad Spectrum SPF 20 = LIKE
- Knockout daily exfoliating cleanser = LOVE
- Lash Smoothie volumizing hemp mascara = LIKE
- Maracuja juicy lip in Coconut (Buff) = LOVE
- Makeup Bag (estimated value) = LOVE
One of my favorite parts of this full size cosmetics sale is the makeup bag. My current makeup bag is one that I chose during the sale, and every year it remains one of my favorite picks!
Final Thoughts on the Tarte Custom Kit Sale
This Custom Kit was one of the best makeup sales of the year. In the past, I’ve either LOVED or HATED the products I chose.
Maybe I’m getting better at choosing the products, or maybe Tarte has awesome products to choose from.
There’s nothing to HATE this year in my Custom Kit. I have been happily using all of the beauty products from the sale.
After using the products I chose from the sale, I can say the Tarte Sale is still worth it for me. I like and will use all of the products from my kit. Even the eyeshadow palette that is just okay.
I’ve been purchasing the kit for years and still plan on purchasing the next one.
