Feeling peachy !

I am seriously loving the new Occ lip tars that i recently purchased from love makeup. I have wanted to try these out for so long and now that Ive started road testing them i know for sure that these are going to become a firm favourite.

I read mixed review with people who either loved them or hated them. A few people said they were too drying but i decided to take my chances and I'm soooo glad i did.


Cha Cha & Trollop


I ended up getting a really bright colour and a very pale peach so that i could mix the two colours to create a few different shades. I have had a little play with mixing them and its amazing how many different shades of peach and pink you can get with just 2 colours.

Today i am wearing a mix of the two which created a gorgeous peach colour. My lips are quite pigmented so finding the right peach shade is really hard. The coverage on these are brilliant so the true colour that you mix ends up on the lips.



As you can see the finish is semi matte which some people may not like but you can always add a slick of gloss.
I applied this first thing this morning and its still going strong 6 hrs later :)

Have you tried any of the Occ lip tars and if so what is your favourite shade ?

  2. That's great news! I don't mind a semi-matte finish, not every day is a "lipgloss day", lol!

  5. These two look gorgeous! And they really suit you when mixed, too. I'm guessing you ordered from Love Makeup? The little plastic mixing tray comes in handy! I have four lip tars, my favourite being 'Hoochie' - a bright pinky purple :)
