| L-R Anime, NSFW |
Heart pounding. Adrenalin rushing. Euphoria! That’s what I felt upon seeing OCC (Obsessive Compulsive) Cosmetics at Sephora. I never own any OCC ’til now! Ah, such a temptress ~ these are the only cosmetics and/or lip tars currently sold at Ala Moana branch. No swatch needed, I gotta own’ em. Snooze and loose, no bueno.
So the only lip tars available ($16 each) were Anime (neon fuschia ) and NSFW (brick red). A lip tar is a liquid lipstick. By OCC definition, you only need a small drop to achieve a super saturated lip color. Each lip tar comes with a small brush that takes the hassle away from application. Remember, a small bead is all you need for your lips! Too much tar results to unsightly feathering. It goes on moist upon application and dries to a matte finish. You can mix tars for a gradient effect or apply lip gloss on top. The wearability was indeed impressive, I’d say about six hours on me. I had to use cotton pads moistened with micellar water (read previous review) as standard facial wipes are not enough to remove the last traces of stain.

I can’t wait to try more OCC lip tars and makeups. Sephora, stock up soon!
xo,
P.S. I submitted this post to a Saturday Blog Hop hosted by Carleen of Beauty & Fashion Tech. Visit her site and other bloggers as well.
I got excited when I saw this as well! I love both colors. Do you think Anime would work well on porcelain skin with cool, pink undertones? During winter my skin sometimes looks so cool I almost seem like a ghost.
I think it would. If you're experimental with bright colors, you'll like this. There are varying shades of hot pink in OCC website, but I really wish Sephora carries more shades so we can have better choices.
Gorgeous, gorgeous shades and both look incredible on you! I'm impressed that you actually get a lip brush with each, love that! How do these feel as you wear, are they dry?
Thanks a ton Tina :-))) It's a bit dry but not annoying. If you have really dry lips, I suggest wearing lip balm first then this…xo
SO VIBRANT AND BEAUTIFUL!!!! Love these shades on you!!<3 I really wish we have a Sephora here:((
