We’re all obsessed with Tarte Cosmetics, especially their
Shape Tape Concealer. It’s so long-lasting, creamy, and always has a perfect pore-free finish. So, due to popular demand, Tarte Cosmetics has decided to bless the beauty world by creating not just one, but TWO new foundation formulas under the cult-favorite Shape Tape name. As I expected, I’m absolutely #shook by these amazing new foundations. The
Tarte Shape Tape Matte Foundation gives your skin a matte, shine-free finish, while the
Tarte Shape Tape Hydrating Foundation is fortified with hydrating components to keep your dry skin moisturized while giving a full finish, leaving your skin perfectly dewy and free of imperfections. These foundations are nothing less than amazing, and they seriously give your skin a faux-natural glow and blemish-free finish that you never thought could be possible for your skin.
But, one of the most unimpressive things abut this new foundation is it’s price. Each foundation is $39, a pretty hefty price point for this beauty product. While it is a great foundation, I have bills to pay, so I’m going to have to take a hard pass on this for a while. So, like the budget beauty queen I am, I went on a hunt to find only the best of the best liquid foundations on the drugstore market to replace this makeup gem. And lucky for you, I found three amazing bargain beauty dupes to fill that expensive hole in your heart and your makeup bag. Check out these top of the line drugstore foundations that are easily on par with Tarte Cosmetic’s Shape Tape Foundation line!
