Tarte Buried Treasure Holiady Rainforest of the Sea Eyeshadow Palette is a new, limited edition palette for the holidays that features 10 shades in the "new Rainforest of the Sea formula." Per Tarte, the formula is supposed to be blendable, "velvety," and "primes lids for payoff." They have a very smooth, velvety texture with moderate powderiness and a tendency to "melt" on the lids, which meant shorter wear due to noticeable fading between four and six hours. That same powderiness also resulted in color that sheered out a lot and tended to make the lid appear drier, and it was harder to layer the mattes on top of each other without then lifting whatever was underneath (or nearby). There was potential here, but unless applied over a tacky base, it was a miss.
