The Tarte Holiday 2015 Collection has landed at Ulta and there are some products that are different than the ones at Sephora, so I thought I'd share and also recap what's at Sephora so you can decide which products are best for you.

Here's a recap of the Sephora Holiday 2015 Tarte Collection:
Bling It On Amazonian Clay Blush Palette ($44)- This one is $9 more than the Ulta blush set, but it includes 5 blushes instead of 4 and they're all in one palette, rather than in separate compacts. A $110 value (Ulta's blush set has a $60 value and costs $35)
Deluxe Amazonian Butter Lip Set ($21)- This is the same exact set that Ulta has and they're the same price.
Light Of The Party Collectors Makeup Case ($59)- This set costs $10 more than Ulta's set and contains 30 eyeshadows (vs. 24) , and a bronzer, blush and highlighter (while the Ulta set has 3 blushes). Both sets contain a deluxe size Lights Camera Lashes mascara. This set also has a double-ended eyeshadow brush, while Ulta's set has a Lip Creme. A $394 value (Ulta's set costs $49 and has a $322 value).
Lips for Daze Lipsurgence Set ($34)- This set contains 5 Lipsurgence lip tints in both matte and satin finishes. Ulta's set is also $34 and contains 9 lip cremes that are individually packaged in sets of 3 to give away as gifts. The Sephora set has a $120 value while the Ulta set has a $126 value.
Shine Bright Statement Lash Essentials ($20)- features a limited edition eyelash curler with sequined handles and a deluxe sized version of Lights, Camera, Flashes mascara. Not currently sold at Ulta.
Stroke of Midnight Brush Set ($44)- a sequined brush box featuring five, full-sized limited edition brushes. A $156 value. Not currently sold at Ulta.

It also contains a separate empty palette that you can pop any one of the four palettes in to take with you on the go.

So there you have it! I hope this comparison was helpful...I think I'm liking the Sephora blush palette better than the blush set at Ulta, but I'm torn between the 3 large palettes. Ugh, decisions, decisions!
What will you be getting from these collections...anything?
