OCC Lip Tar in Lydia. |
Another review on this amazing product, Lip Tars, made by Obsessive Compulsive Cosmetics (OCC).
Keep on reading to see what I think about Lydia!
OCC Lip Tar in Lydia (Back of the Tube). |
"A stunning new innovation in lip color, OCC Lip Tar combines the longevity of a lipstick, with the ease of application of a gloss. Goes on slick and moist, and dries down to a satin finish. Ultra-saturated in color, Lip Tar contains an unprecedented amount of pigment - a little goes a very, very long way! An intense yet featherweight layer of color that never looks or feels heavy. Meant to be mixed, Lip Tar comes in concise array of colors for a limitless selection of shades made by you! A simple, elegant formula that contains Hemp Oil, Peppermint Oil and Vitamin E, OCC Lip Tar feels as good on the lips as it looks!"
OCC Lip Tar Packaging. |
The new packaging of Lip Tars are in a squeezable MATTE tube with a long, skinny narrowed nozzle. The old one use to be a slant tip applicator but I guess that it was too messy for some people since they applied it right off of the tube (which is a huge NO NO).
Application is pretty easy with this product but it can be tricky to some other people. You will need a lip brush and the tiniest amount of product (since a little bit goes A VERY LONG way). Don't apply too much product because then it will feather out of your natural lipline and look... well gross. Oh yeah, and don't forget to use a lip balm because these babies aren't that moisturizing.

I would definitely recommend this product to everyone since it's a neat way to have a variety of OCC Lip Tars to create different shades for your lips, cheeks, and eyes. It is inconvenient for touch ups since you need a brush to apply this product so I'm planning to make some lipsticks with the OCC Lip Tars and a lip base (diy project coming up soon!). These lasts for a while and sometimes it can leave a slight stain. Two thumbs up for this product though!
Have you ever tried any OCC Lip Tars?
I already reviewed Harlot and Queen and I have plenty more of them (about 5-7 more OCC Lip Tars) to review so keep an eye out!
Ohh it's gorg. It doesn't look quite as deep as it does on the tube on your lips, but a beautiful neutral (:
ReplyDeletemy lips are already pigmented so that might be the reason why.. but it does look way darker on the tube than on my lips! haha thanks! ;]

DeleteOMG your lips are SO smooth! I need to exfoliate or something, I think. I bought a bunch of Lip Tar samples from a girl on eBay (http://bit.ly/14Wff0R) and some of them make my lips look flaky. Did you put a balm over your lips after you put on the Lip Tar?
ReplyDeletei use a balm before the lip tars but make sure to exfoliate! ;D
