Obsessive Compulsive Cosmetics Lip Tar Tarred 0.33 oz by OCC

I ordered the OCC Lip Tar in Grandma, ChaCha, NSFW, and Anime, all shipped by Sephora. Let me just say that I did not pay for shipping and I still got my package 2 or 3 days later. All 4 came in a box that was stuffed to the max with tissue paper so nothing was moving around. As for the products themselves, they all came in a little clear plastic pouch with directions, as well as a small OCC lip brush (so now I have a brush for each color). So far I have only tried Grandma which is a very nice coral color. I like the lip tars because unlike the tinted lip balms I use, the color is opaque. I could have gotten opaque color from a regular lipstick - however, I feel like lipsticks are sticky and dry. The lip tar goes on smooth and definitely isn't sticky at all, so I can still rub my lips together with ease. I know that these products are also good for mixing colors, which I have yet to do. If there is anything I don't like about them, it's that they do transfer pretty easily. If you blot your lips with a napkin you'll wipe it off, and I also read in other reviews that you should be careful with color bleeding and staining around your mouth. I'm okay with it wiping off though, because it does stain your lips (especially the darker colors) so you will still have some color. Definitely be careful when applying because a little goes a long way. I was super surprised when this tiny little dot of product was able to cover my entire bottom lip.

Much redder than expected from looking at pictures of people wearing it and swatches on line. Still pretty though. Made my lips really dry and had some peeling the next day. Would prefer an applicator on the tube as the little brush gets messy in the bag and the product can skoosh out too much from the tip and drip down the side of the tube.

The lip tar smells good, and it goes on beautifully. My complaint is it's kind of neon. If you like a bright lip colors than this a good lipstick for you.

Based on reviews and marketing publicity, I expected that this product would stay on for a couple of hours. In fact, it stayed on a couple of minutes. The colors are beautiful, but after normal wear it was gone within less than five minutes. Very disappointing and a waste of money.

This isn’t the color at all. Smells disgusting. It’s like they just threw something in my box and didn’t care. How’d you get from pink to black and why does it smell like and Ipsy reject lipgloss? I’m irritated. This was a horrible buying experience.

I'm VERY hard to please when it comes to lip products. The only lip color I've been crazy about in years is MAC's lip stain, but this stuff is amazing. I'll definitely be looking into buying more colors. Hush (the shade I purchased) is an awesome fun, light color for summer.

I love OCC Lip Tars, but I'm not crazy about this color.

Too drying and doesn't blend well
