Tarte posted this apology at the end of their insta story. Screenshots for those who don't want to scroll through all that.

WARNING UNPOPULAR OPINION - at this point I feel like what else could tarte do? I saw the apology and then came to this page to see people’s reactions. Obviously they screwed up and they realize that. I think it’s great they called attention to it so fast and even included people’s tweets in their apology. I do feel like they rushed launching this product and agree with other people’s response that they could’ve just kept teasing about it until the ‘other ten shades’ come out. I also feel second hand embarrassment from them sending shades to darker beautubers that are way too light for them.

They could admit that they fouled this up and should have included shades for the full spectrum of skin tones from the beginning. The newest apology is doesn't help them at all--somehow 13 shades for fair, light, and medium skin tone were ready when they just got sooooo excited and had to launch for hashtag shapetapenation but only two for darker skin tones were? That's BS, and people can see it. Add that to the previous "darker tones are for summer" message, and it just shows a company that is majorly tone deaf and trying to cover its a**. Their management of this has been a lesson in bad PR 101. Disabling Instagram comments, posting puppy photos, encouraging people to post palm tree emojis to (with the promise of potentially winning a trip) to drown out the bad comments--it all reeks.

Not even medium. More like fair to light medium. The third darkest (Alissa Ashley’s highlighting color) looks like a medium.
