high-performance natural beauty 🌻 cruelty free 🙅 parabens, gluten, mineral oil

About us

tarte™ is the pioneer of high-performance naturals™ & one of the fastest growing cosmetic companies in the U.S. Over 20 years ago, founder & CEO Maureen Kelly set out to create a cruelty-free line of easy-to-use, life-proof products packed with good-for-you ingredients that deliver real results without compromise. tartelettes around the world – including beauty editors, makeup artists, content creators & celebrities alike – obsess over the full assortment of award-winning, highly-pigmented, & longwearing cosmetics. Each item is developed without the icky, bad stuff (like parabens, mineral oil, phthalates, & more) & with the best naturally-derived ingredients Mother Nature has to offer. The brand is 85% vegan (with 100% vegan skincare!) & further extended their philosophy of “good-for-you glamour” by launching sister brands Awake by tarte™ & sugar rush™. tarte™ is committed to sharing its passion for skinvigorating™ ingredients with the world: it has in-store presence in over 20 countries & online at tarte.com, shipping to over 70 countries worldwide! But tarte™ doesn’t stop there. Giving back has always been a part of the brand’s DNA. In 2017, tarte™ founded heart to tarte™, a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization to help support causes like anti-cyberbullying, environmental conservancy, animal rescue, disaster relief & women’s & children’s health initiatives. tarte also sustainably sources ingredients directly from cooperatives, & in 2019 helped fund the creation of an all-female maracuja cooperative in the Rainforest.

    Shared a piece of my Tarte Cosmetics & personal journey with PEOPLE Magazine | PEOPLE.com. Thank you to Catherine Santino for taking my story on with your beautiful writing. "I’ve always believed in authenticity, and as Tarte continues to grow, it feels right to bring more of me into the conversation — the real me, the sometimes emotional me. There are so many women out there quietly navigating loss and rebuilding. If my journey can offer even a small glimmer of strength or hope, then speaking up is not just worthwhile it’s necessary." Read the full story below 💜

  • Our hearts are with everyone affected by the devastating floods💔 To support ongoing relief efforts, 100% of net proceeds from all tarte.com sales from 7/7–7/13 will be donated to World Central Kitchen, a non-profit organization already on the ground providing fresh meals & emergency support. We’re incredibly grateful for the first responders and volunteers working tirelessly to support impacted communities. Thank you for helping us give back 💜

  • ☀️ Cannes was HOT… but our touch-up booth was cooler than ever. 💜 We popped up at one of the buzziest events in Cannes with a full glam rescue station—because when it’s 100° & the humidity is no joke, melting makeup just isn’t the vibe. Our team came in clutch with: 🎯 Shade matching + touch-ups using our iconic Shape Tape Concealer 💨 Shine control with Creaseless Setting Powder (aka the secret to staying sexy, not sweaty) 🔒 Life Lock Hydrating Spray to lock in the look AND cool things down 💋 A juicy swipe of Maracuja Juicy Lip for the perfect hydrated pout Between panels, networking, and non-stop heat, our booth became the go-to stop for a quick refresh. And judging by the lines… we’re calling it: most in-demand booth of the week. Huge thanks to Sarah Miller - Cooper, our GM of International & our incredible team who kept things cool (literally) & flawless all day long. #tarte #Cannes2025
