Obsessive Compulsive Cosmetics Lip Tar

If you're a lipstick lover, or can't stand having bare lips, then lip tars are a must for your collection..

OCC stands for Obessive Compulsive Cosmetics...If I were to ever create a make up line this would be the perfect name! Love it. 

OCC don't stock the usual pretty reds, pinks and nudes, they deal with the much more racier colours like purples, greens, and blues. However, I chickened out a tad and played it safe with a subtle pink shade.
 

Momento was the first lip tar to my collection, but I have plans to expand..believe it or not!

Your probably thinking that there is more product in this tube than anyone could possibly need, but the reason being..OCC have developed these tars for mixing, and depotting..the idea is that you experiment and create your own shade with one, two or more shades. 

Application: You need to use this with a brush, WARNING-Do not attempt to apply straight from the tube or you will be sorry and there will be a lot of wasteage!
You literally need a DROP for your whole lips, it is unbelievably pigmented and that's what this product is known for. 

It goes on like a thin matte gloss but dries to a satin finish like lipstick.
The staying power is about 5 hours, which is very impressive and all the colours have a refreshing peppermint smell to them.

Lip Tars are free of parabens, cruelty free and 100% vegan...can't say that about many products these days can we?!

Product Summary
Overall - 100% Opaque colour, it applies quite thinly and spreads well. Best used with a brush.

Best For- On its own for a block of colour or under a lip gloss
