Tarte LipSurgence Lip Tint Spirited Review, Swatches, Photos

This was provided to me by a brand for review but all opinions expressed are my own

Now that Fall is here I’m busy hauling out all my peaches, oranges, and corals (not that they were stored away to begin with as I made proper use out of them this Summer). Tarte LipSurgence Lip Tint in Spirited was released this Summer during the mad orange trend we seen during the warmer months.

Take a look!

I’m heading down to Fraggle Rock today kids with the new Black Phoenix Alchemy Lab Fragrance Oil in Gobo.

I dunno about you but I grew up with Henson madness. Dark Crystal, Labyrinth, the Muppets, Tale of the Bunny Picnic, and of course the Fraggles were on my playlist rotation as a child.

Needless to say when I discovered the Lab was creating fragrance oils inspired by the Fraggles I was all over the idea. I was ready to dance my cares away….!

Gobo being the unofficial “leader” of the Fraggle gang (some would say Mokey but she’s more of an adviser isn’t she?) I decided to try him first.

Let’s take a look!
