Palette Breakdown: Tarte Clay Play Face Shaping Palette

Tarte Clay Play Face Shaping Palette Does anyone else forget how good palettes are? And then when you finally get back to them it’s like an awakening?

This is a very thin formula but with great coverage. I really like it on blemishes, and initially I didn't lik...
