We love new products, trends and tips but ever wondered about wearing them in real life? Each week we’ll take on a test drive, from the newest nail colour, to playing with perfume or seeing how long that hairstyle actually takes and share what we find (sweet, not-so-sweet and everything in between).

Marina tested Tarte's natural cheek stain—offering a gel-like texture, and here's what she thought of it:
The packaging was as cute as a button! The colour of the packaging matches the shade of blush, ensuring no mistakes when selecting a colour.
I overdid the application on cheek #1. One or two little dabs of the finger were enough for me, though I can see how easy it would be to layer the colour to the desired strength. It went on really light and felt lovely, not at all oily or greasy and blended nicely with my skin. The colour was also a very cheerful and cheeky fuschia, that added just the right amount of "blush" to my very pale skin.
By the end of the day, the colour was still going strong. I'd definitely use this in the future, and seeing as how a little goes a long way, I could continue using it for many, many, years to come!
