tarte definitely hit the jackpot when they released their range of “Rainforest of the Sea” products! We’ve seen SO MANY launches in that collection over the last year or so, and it’s not hard to see why we’re all so attracted to them: the packaging is glorious, the colours and formulas are wonderful. But there’s SO MUCH of it that it can be hard to figure out what you want to try out first!
So… may I recommend these Rainforest of the Sea Quench Lip Rescue Lip Balms?
The Quench Lip Rescues are fundamentally a lip balm that pack a very tiny pigment punch. They’re infused with an antioxidant and vitamin-rich lip quencher that’s powered by a blend of essential extracts and oils while providing a protective antioxidant barrier against daily aggressors. (And they’re also vegan!)
The packaging is cardboard, which may not be everyone’s cup of tea, but I’m really quite into it. Each shade comes with its own special unique packaging with a different colour and foiled print. (The colours on the outside do not reflect the product inside.)
Swatched out, you can see there’s some pigment, but you’re mostly left with a super glossy sheer coat of goodness. The balms do have a minty smell, but I don’t feel like that caused any tingling on my skin (as some peppermint infused products do).

Final Thoughts
I’ve had the shade Rose since forever ago and am almost halfway through that tube because I love it so much! So when the rest of the shades showed up in a PR package from tarte… well… I was OVER THE MOON!
The Quench Lip Rescues are ultra hydrating balms that give my lips such a glossy-wet look that I really adore. They feel absolutely glorious when you swipe them on your lips – buttery, soft and slick. For me, these are an easy product to grab and go when I don’t want to be fussing with my lip colour all day. These are a huge, HUGE win for me, and if you want to see me talk more about them, you can check out my April Favourites video!

Thanks for swatching all of the shades. I love these balms too. I have two in the shade Buff, I keep one in my purse and one in my backpack! I think I’ll pick up Berry next!
I’ve been using Cherry like mad lately. It’s that perfect “popsicle lips” look! I’m so glad to hear you love them too!
