We’re tarte – the original pioneer of high-performance naturals & one of the fastest-growing beauty brands in the U.S. Founded over 25 years ago by Maureen Kelly, tarte started with a bold belief: beauty should be cruelty-free, easy to use, packed with good-for-you ingredients, & actually work. No compromises. Ever.
Today, tarte is loved by a global community of tartelettes – from pros to everyday beauty lovers, including makeup artists, creators, celebrities, teachers, nurses, moms, students, & everyone in between. Every product is made without the icky stuff (like parabens, mineral oil, & phthalates) & powered by the best naturally derived ingredients Mother Nature has to offer. We’re proudly the #1 concealer & mascara brand in the U.S. You’ll find us in over 20 countries in store & online at tarte.com, shipping to more than 50 countries worldwide.
Our people come first — always. We’re a friendly, fun, fast-paced, & highly collaborative team where creativity thrives, individuality is celebrated, & big ideas are encouraged.
We offer people-first benefits for full-time employees, including:
Generous PTO & a robust holiday calendar kicking off 12/24 & returning in the New Year
Paid vacation, holidays, summer Fridays, birthdays off, & volunteer time
Medical, dental, & vision coverage, plus a 401(k) plan
Access to health & wellness programs
Makeup gratis (yes, really) & employee discounts on tarte.com
Team give-back initiatives & meaningful ways to connect beyond the day-to-day
Doing good is part of who we are. In 2017, we launched heart to tarte, our 501(c)(3) nonprofit supporting causes like anti-cyberbullying, environmental conservancy, animal rescue, disaster relief, & women’s & children’s health initiatives. We’re also deeply committed to responsible sourcing — including helping fund an all-female maracuja cooperative in the Rainforest.
At tarte, we’re not just building a beauty brand — we’re building a community fueled by purpose, passion, & positivity.
SPF is the #1 thing you can do for your skin, and Holly Thaggard founded our brand in 2005 to make it fun and easy to wear, every single day. We add sunscreen to your favorite skincare and beauty essentials, and make sure each one is highly personalized to work with your skin and your life. Each formula is clean, reef-safe and feels amazing, so you can live bright and let us take care of the rest.
In 2010, we started making products to protect our friends and families from the harmful effects ofthe sun. Since then, we’ve grown a bit, but we haven’t changed. Our Cocoa Beach office is an old Florida beach house off A1A. Our Moonlight Beach office is in the groovy little town of Encinitas, California, just a block away from the sand. And like any good beach day, everyone’s welcome to the bonfire. Everything we do is to help people make more meaningful connections outside, so we put a lot of love into our products and we hope you like them, too.
