How to Use OCC Lip Tars

OCCFallLipTar-2013

I'll be honest, when I first came across Obsessive Compulsive Cosmetics (OCC) lip tars, I was excited!...but confused. I was familiar with them from hearing numerous beauty bloggers and YouTube gurus gush and rave over them but few had ever mentioned how they use them. I (like I would imagine most people would) assumed they were simply used like lipgloss and generously slathered on lips unbridled (yes, it's possible to use them that way but remember a little goes a long way). So imagine my surprise the first time I used a tube and ended up with globs of brightly colored high pigment lip product all over the general area of my mouth. Determined to not give up until I found the land of "milk and lip tar" every other beauty addict seemed to have found, I did some research as well as trial and error until I finally found three amazing uses for these products (and right in time for the launch of their newest Fall collection).

December Glossybox Review




Beautysets - December 2012 Glossybox Review






This past December I received the December 2012 Glossybox for review. This is the second Glossybox I've received so far so I was really excited to see what products I would get this time.

My favorite item from this month's box would have to be the necklace from Jewelmint. It's a thick silver chain style necklace and I've been wearing it every chance I get (including in the review video) . Coming in as a close second favorite would be the Mark. lipstick, I love how pigmented the color is and can't wait to try more products from the line.

My least favorite item would probably be the Pleats Please perfume. Although I love trying new fragrances, that particular scent isn't really "me" and I don't see myself using it.
