More on Tarte’s Health Couture: Inside Out Lipstick

BeansTalk has been a longtime devotee to the super popular Tarte line. Well, Tarte’s Maureen Kelly and Scott Vincent Borba have done it again: they’ve created lipstick that’s actually good for you. Similar to the Inside Out glosses, Tarte’s long-lasting lipstick beautifies lips on the outside, while Borba’s age-defying nutraceutical blend beautifies lips on the inside. Available in 3 pretty shades, this is the first-ever lipstick that will nourish, moisturize and rejuvenate lips while helping to protect against environment attack.
Sweet Dreams (dusty pink-rose) Zen (plum-berry) Revive (true red)

Inside Out vitamin-infused lipstick and core include:
Preservative-free and paraben-free grape seed extract and vitamin C help accelerate production of natural elastin, protecting skin against free-radical damage and restore skin’s clarity
Chamomile extract soothes skin and helps to counteract redness
Tarte’s skin-vigorating lipstick ingredients:
Jojoba, shea butter and beeswax nourishes, moisturizes and conditions lips
Borba’s age-defying nutraceutical cocktail core:
Acai & green tea extract help strengthen capillary walls, reduce epidermal irritation and enhance skin’s clarity and radiance
Vitamins A, E & K act as antioxidants to give lips that healthy glow
Lychee extract promotes long-term skin hydration
Clinically tested formula—lipstick with antioxidants and other vitamins & minerals can help diminish the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles

BeansTalk gives kudos to Tarte because a portion of the proceeds of the sales of the Sweet Dreams shade (pictured) will go to the Young Survival Coalition, http://www.ysc.org/. Right on!
