Tar Baby !!!

TAR BABY?!?!?!? WTF?

No, no - not at all. You see, Beauty Wonkette recently discovered Obsessive Compulsive Cosmetics (Beauty Wonkette would have loved this line for its name alone!)and has been playing with their products. Now, as some of you have probably figured out, BW is really not all that big on make-up, but their are a few things that EVERY self-respecting Beauty Wonkette covets - great lip products, stupendous mascara, tinted moisturizers, fine powders that make you look air-brushed.... Hehe - good thing Beauty Wonkette is NOT that into makeup, eh? But, BW does digress.

The OCC product that is BW's current obsession is called Lip Tar. It's such an unlikely name for a truly innovative and awesome product. TAR BABY - at best, it connotes a sticky situation. At its worst - well, nevermind - who wants to go to that uglee place. However, having thought it through, maybe it isn't such an icky name after all.

What are some of the words that spring to mind when you think of tar? Permanent, heavy duty, thick, a glossy surface. Are you following? Ultimately, who doesn’t want a lip product that has a glossy shine and a long lasting formula that stays put? Well, my lovelies, Beauty Wonkette introduce you to Obsessive Compulsive Cosmetics and their Lip Tar! This stuff is truly a beauty lover's dream.

A stunning new innovation in lip color, OCC Lip Tar combines the longevity of a lipstick, with the ease of application of a gloss. It goes on slick and moist, and dries down to a satin finish. Ultra-saturated in color, OCC Lip Tar contains an unprecedented amount of pigment, so a little goes a very, very long way. What you end up with is an intense, yet featherweight, layer of color that even stands up to the scrutiny of Hi-Def Video and Digital Photography, without ever looking (or feeling!) heavy. Meant to be mixed, OCC Lip Tars come in a range of colors (and black and white!) for a limitless selection of shades made by you! (Think makeup artist meets mad scientist). Just DO remember: a little bit of this stuff goes a very long way.

At $12.50 a tube, you can afford to mix madly....

Oh, yes, lest Beauty Wonkette forgets: OCC Lip Tar is 100% Vegan and Cruelty-Free, and is also free of parabens and other harsh preservatives. It is a simple, elegant formula that contains Hemp Oil, Peppermint Oil and Vitamin E. The result? OCC Lip Tar feels as good on the lips as it looks!
