The Obsessive Compulsive Cosmetics Unknown Pleasures Fall/Winter 2014 Lip Tars
Through some weird illusionary makeup magic/play a trick on of light, blue lip products are supposed to make your teeth look whiter, but I dunno… Practice my teeth look whiter in these pics? I'm wearing OCC's new Lip Tar in Vain.
I seriously cannot tell; all I meet are those blueish lips.
They're simply so…blue.
OCC explores the boundaries between light and shadow in their fall/winter 2014 Unknown Pleasures collection. Vain is one of the half dozen new $18 Lip Tars in the release.
Most of the fourth dimension when liquid lipsticks dry down, they grade an impermeable film on my lips, which is usually long-wearing (yay!), but also very drying (boo!).
Unlike run-of-the-mill liquid lipsticks, which tend to bleed my lips of every milliliter of moisture similar Edward Cullen on a bender, the Lip Tars stay wet from start to terminate, so they don't form a drying film.
Merely the wet texture too leads these to scoot beyond my natural lip line, so information technology helps to be mindful of rubbing your lips together, particularly with the darker shades.
And speaking of the darker shades…when they fade, they wearable down to a deep, almost impossibly difficult to remove stain. I have to use several makeup wipes, two different oil cleansers and 3 cotton pads saturated with Trish McEvoy Long-Wearable Face and Eye Makeup Remover to remove all traces of the black and the blue.
The Lip Tars are non-viscid and have a pepperminty flavor and odor. Wear time varies from ii-iii hours for the nude shades to 4-5 for the darker ones.
The blackened purple matte shade, Heathen — ahh! Remember Pure Heroine, the lipstick from the MAC Lorde collection? Blackened purple Pagan is what I wished Pure Heroine had looked like.
Pure. Awesome.
Reddish orange Metallic Manhunter is also worthy of note, I think, generally because of this: information technology'due south a glitter-fest. Kind of like a glittery gold liquid lipstick version of MAC Lady Danger. The glitter doesn't actually show itself in these pics, just it'due south at that place… Oh, it's there. Up in yo' face!
