After trying samples/travel sizes of these Tarte products , I had been wanting to purchase their full-sized skincare products for a while, and was waiting for Sephora's spring 15% off sale to do so, but when Tarte was having 30% off a couple weeks before, I jumped on the chance! I purchased the Deep Dive Cleansing Gel , Drink of H2O Hydrating Boost Moisturizer , Frxxxtion Stick Exfoliating Cleanser , Rainforest of the Sea Setting Mist , and Tarteguard Tinted Moisturizer .  Clockwise from Top : Drink of H2O Moisturizer, Frxxxtion Stick, Rainforest of the Sea Setting Spray, Tarteguard Tinted Moisturizer, and Deep Dive Cleansing Gel.   Deep Dive Cleansing Gel retails for $30 CDN and is described as a "daily brightening face cleanser and waterproof makeup remover".
