A NATURAL BLEND
Tarte Dollface Cheek Stain ($30) is free of alcohol, meaning it won’t dry out your skin, and contains no oil, so it won’t clog pores either. Instead, this luscious cheek stain is infused with a proprietary blend of the five superfruits: goji, acai, maracuja, acerola, and pomegranate. Loaded with naturally occurring, antioxidant-rich nutrients and vitamins, this shimmery stain delivers anti-aging and skin-restorative benefits with each application.
