Tarte's New Sea-Inspired Eye Shadow Palette Is a First For the Brand For This Reason

It may be a coincidence that Tarte's latest launch, a sea-inspired palette called High Tides and Good Vibes ($39), launches days ahead of Real Housewives of New York, but we prefer to think it was a planned affair. The palette, which includes 12 pans of shadow with a mix of eight matte and shimmer shades plus four glitter toppers, will have you celebrating turtle time with your favorite wine — perhaps Ramona Singer Pinot Grigio? Like years past, Tarte is adopting another sea turtle and her nest through the Sea Turtle Conservancy to celebrate the launch.

The palette is also a first for the brand, launching exclusively through Sephora in 28 countries. It will launch on March 5 on Tarte.com and Sephora.com in North America, France, and Spain and will be coming soon to Sephora Europe, Sephora Australia, Sephora Southeast Asia, Sephora Middle East, Sephora North America, and Sephora Inside JCPenney stores.

Keep reading to see swatches of the palette, and get ready to bring it along on your next trip. (Hopefully not to Scary Island.)
