Product Talk: OCC Lip Tar

Obsessive Compulsive Cosmetics has been pretty popular for a couple of years now, but every time I wear one of my Lip Tars I always get asked "what colour is that?" or "where did you get that?" or the big one "How does your lipstick stay on all day?!"

Here's the lip tars I own and I'll share my opinion, where I got them, and how you can get them.

Hush:

Hush is a pale pinky colour, that looks rather nude on me. I usually use this one to tone down a brighter shade, or I'll wear it over a bright liner to mute it slightly.

Grandma:

Grandma is a coral colour, that mixes really well with Hush. I love this colour, and amp it up with an orange lip liner if I want something a little more crazy.

Anime:

Anime is a bright pink and one of my faves. I rock it alone, or over a fuchsia lip liner to give it a more purple look.

NSFW, despite the name, is something I wear to work often. You really want to wear a lip liner with this one though, as it bleeds badly. It's a bold rich red.

I love this product and think it's a must-have for any lipstick lover!

They are a thick liquid lipstick. They come in a lip gloss type package but DON'T apply them like a lip gloss. You'll end up with a colourfull mess all over your face. I use a very very very very small amount on a lip brush and really work it into my lips. I also like to apply a lip balm or conditioner a few mins before to avoid the dry crackly look.

They are a peppermint oil based product and smell wonderful, and tingle just a little bit.

They start off slightly sticky (as seen in Anime's swatch), but dry to a very matte finish. 

I got mine at IMATS a couple years ago, for $10 each. They're available online at occmakeup.com along with all their other products. They make all sorts of things, but I haven't tried anything else. I really want to get more of the reds and pinks. I'm in a bit of a lip product craze right now. I can't seem to get enough!
