Tarina Tarantino: Sparklicity Pure Review

I imagine Tarina Tarantino's Sparklicity Pure should have been the loose powder equivalent of the original Sparklicity Shimmer Dust. It is loose shimmer dust in light pink.

What it is: A touch of luxurious, crystalline sparkle for eyes, cheeks, and lips.

What it does: Complete your look with a unique, reflective finish, thanks to a formula composed almost entirely of pure-refraction reflex (unlike traditional glitters). Sparklicity Pure's soft, muted background shade layers perfectly with the rest of your makeup to accentuate the arch of the brow, eye lids, cheeks, and lips.

Tarina Tarantino: Sparklicity Shimmer Dust Review

The original Sparklicity Shimmer Dust is the only bottle I intended to purchase from Sephora. It was also the only bottle I could never find in stores or online. Naturally, after giving up, I finally found it on Sephora's online site after I had acquired the gold and bronze shimmer dusts.

What it is: A microcrystalline sparkle product in an atomizer that poufs just the right amount of luxurious shimmer onto the face, body, and hair.

What it is does: "All sparkle is not created equal. Sparklicity Pure is total microcrystalline sparkle pigment to create fantastical sparkling effects. It can be used anywhere: face, body, or hair."

Tarina Tarantino: Sparklicity Bronze Shimmer Dust Review

I had only wanted the original Sparklicity Shimmer Dust. It seemed to be hardest one to find though. So along the way I ended up with the gold version and the bronze version as well.

 

What it is: A microcrystalline glitter for the body and hair.

What it does: Sparkle is a state of mind and this product adds dazzling shimmer to bare shoulders, legs, hair, and the decollete. Its microcrystalline sparkle pigment is made almost entirely from a reflex material, which creates a luxurious and fantastical twinkle effects in a glowing bronze shade that's a perfect accent to a bronze complexion. What else you need to know:" Influenced by soaring Moorish architecture and dusty Turkish horizons, Sparklicity Bronze conjures up images of sun drenched vistas and regal exoticism. Dazzling geometric tiling from the famed Topkapi Palace inspires this sophisticated update of summer colors. Shimmering neutrals, misty golds, and soft oasis blue lure you eastward on this elegant voyage." XOXO, Tarina Tarantino, jewelry designer and makeup artist

Tarina Tarantino: Sparklicity Gold Shimmer Dust Review

I discovered Tarina Tarantino's atomizers of shimmer dust while wandering around Sephora. The concept of this atomizer is simple. It ties the elegance of old school perfume bottles with the novel concept of dispersing loose shimmer dust for the body or hair.

What it is: A pure-refraction glitter for body and hair.

What it does: Pouf this product's atomizer for a shimmery spray of fine dry powder. It adds a pretty golden sparkle to bare shoulders, legs, hair, and the decollete. A luxurious finishing touch, this product is made from an Italian formula called reflex, which delivers pure glitter, without base or binder.

Tarina Tarantino: Dollskin Cream Blush & Pressed Sparklicity Duo Review

I started to expand my Sparklicity collection after playing with my Sparklicity Opal. I wanted a pink shimmer highlighter after missing out on Guerlain's Cruel Gardenia and Tarina Tarantino's Dollskin Cream Blush & Pressed Sparklicity beckoned me. There are two shades: Coral Cameo and Mr Pink. I choose Mr Pink because of the pink Sparklicity powder. In my overzealous quest to find a nice pink sparkle powder, I didn't give much thought to the cream blush side of things until my order arrived.

Tarina Tarantino: Sparklicity Pure Opal Review

I tried many of Tarina Tarantino's highlighers before gathering the courage to splurge on Guerlain météorites. Even though Tarantion's contract with Sephora has ended, I think her products are still worth mentioning. Her items are always sleeper hits that provide beautiful pigmentation.
