tarte Face Tape Foundation — Full-Coverage Foundation 35N, Hydrating & Transfer-Proof Natural Matte

tarte Face Tape Foundation 35N is a full-coverage, hydrating longwear foundation that blurs texture and delivers a natural matte, transfer‑proof finish.

This foundation uses tarte's tape-inspired formula to smooth the appearance of pores, fine lines, and uneven texture while providing full coverage for redness, age spots, and blemishes. The lightweight-feeling, natural matte finish is built to resist transfer, water, and sweat, and it’s formulated without parabens, mineral oil, phthalates, triclosan, SLS, or gluten. Skin‑supporting ingredients like snow mushroom, apple fruit extract, and hyaluronic acid help hydrate and visibly refine the complexion without a heavy or cakey look.
