The Review of Each Product:
The Lele Pons X Tarte Collection had some hits and misses for me. Let's first examine the Lele Pons X Tarte Eye & Cheek Palette. This warm neutrals palette has pretty colors, I just wished there were more mattes. Nevertheless, the mattes blended well with each other. The shade Cabo needed a little more work than the others, but that is normal with blacks. The shimmers of this palette are very creamy and easy to apply. I love the blush Playa, it is a beautiful color on the cheeks. The highlighter in Celoso is beautiful as well as a blinding, but was a little too dark for me. If you are looking for an eye & cheek palette and are fair to light skin tone, you might want to stay clear of this palette, test out the highlighter in stores, or apply the highlighter with a very light hand. The lipgloss, Lele, was definitely a miss for me. I found it to be sticky and not as glosses as other lip glosses in my collection. For the price of $20 dollars, there are other lip glosses that I enjoy more like the Fenty Beauty Gloss Bomb in Fenty Glow. I can’t give you a review of the false eyelashes because I have not had a chance to review it. If you have any questions or concerns about this collection, comment below and I will get back to you.
