    Liquid Lipstick Series: Tarte Tarteist Lip Paint

    Another Monday means another liquid lipstick blog post. I’ve shared five brands so far and will list them all at the bottom of the post. Today we have a look at the Tarte tarteist lip paints.   I’m convinced I have two different formulas as the packaging of the shade So fetch looks a tad bit different.
