tarte Face Tape Pressed Powder — 22N Light Neutral, Medium-Coverage Waterproof, Hyaluronic Acid

tarte Face Tape Pressed Powder is a medium-coverage, waterproof powder foundation that sets makeup, controls shine, and hydrates with hyaluronic acid and peptides for a natural matte finish.

This pressed powder translates tarte’s best-selling Face Tape foundation into a portable, everyday format for touch-ups and full-face wear. It combines skin-mimicking pigments with oil-absorbing mattifiers and the MoistureDrench complex (hyaluronic acid + snow mushroom) to help the skin look smoother and feel comfortable while reducing midday shine. The formula is vegan, cruelty-free, and excludes parabens, mineral oil, phthalates, triclosan, SLS, and gluten—designed for longwear wear and an even, natural appearance.

How much coverage does this powder provide?

Face Tape Pressed Powder offers medium, buildable coverage that conceals imperfections without feeling cakey. It blurs the look of pores and fine lines while keeping a skin-like result rather than a fully opaque mask.

• Medium, buildable coverage suitable for daily use
• Light-reflecting pigments for a natural matte, not flat, finish
• Skin-mimicking texture reduces creasing and caking
• Includes a sponge for easy, repeatable application

Will this powder control oil and last through the day?

The powder is formulated to absorb excess oil and help maintain a matte appearance, while clinical testing indicates extended wear and waterproof performance. It’s intended to reduce shine over long hours without needing heavy layering.

• Oil-absorbing ingredients help minimize shine
• Clinically tested for longwear and waterproof performance
• Light-reflecting pigments keep the finish natural.
• Suitable for touch-ups to prolong makeup wear

How does it care for skin while providing coverage?

Unlike some mattifying powders that can feel drying, this formula includes the MoistureDrench complex and peptides to support a hydrated, plumper look. These ingredients aim to balance oil control with skin-smoothing benefits.

• Hyaluronic acid attracts and retains moisture for a supple appearance
• Snow mushroom supports hydration and a brighter look
• Matrixyl 3000 (peptide blend) helps improve the look of texture over time
• Apple fruit extract supplies antioxidants to help support skin radiance

How should I apply this powder for best results?

Use the included sponge for full coverage or a powder brush to diffuse product for a more natural finish. Layer lightly where you want extra coverage and set oily zones with a touch-up through the day.

• Sponge: press and blend for medium, more precise coverage
• Brush: sweep lightly for an all-over natural matte finish
• Build in thin layers to avoid creasing or cakiness
• Reapply to T-zone or shine-prone areas as needed
