I saw that there are supposed to be 6 colors. A yellow, orange, neon pink, a pinkish red, a burgundy red, and an orange-ish red. I can't recall all of the names but I remember Voyeur, Rhythm Box, and New Wave (pretty sure that New Wave is the neon pink color).
Sephora doesn't carry thr entire line, so it may just be DCd from sephora. It's still available on the OCC site tho.
When I look it doesn't say "permanently out of stock"...it just says out of stock and gives you the option of being notified when it is available. Several are out of stock due to the current VIB sale so that may be the issue. You can try contacting Sephora just to be sure (or even better, ask OCC. They can tell you if Sephora will no longer be carrying a certain shade or if it will be discontinued after they sell out of it themselves). As mentioned, it's still available on the OCC website if you want it now and don't have access to an actual Sephora store that carries them. You can also check Beauty.com. I know the sell some of the OCC colors.
It says right underneath the pic. It's Meta.Whatever that shade is, it looks gorgeous.
Yeah I don't know if the increase was because they now ship the lip tars in the little pouches that originally only the Sephora ones came in and they decided to do an across the board increase for that or what. I think I got spoiled by IMATS pricing and the last sale pricing which ended up being IMATS pricing with the pro discount factored in. Not sure if I will get any of the duos since I have all of the lip tars included but I am loving them. I'll be getting the stained glosses though.
oh, i didn't know that about the pouches. it makes sense though. i'm not really a fan of glosses though, so i'll be passing on the stained glosses.
those are really nice swatches!I'm completely guessing on this so please forgive me! I BELIEVE #1 is Annika. #5 Ophelia. #8 Interlace and #9 Zhora. I may need to take another pic and actually write down the order that they are in to be sure! I have a couple of pics with all of the colors EXCEPT for Black Dahlia and NSFW...not sure if that would help but I'll post them just in case.

Thank you!
The price increase is due to the fact that they're carried at sephora now as well, rather than just thru OCC themselves. Not because of the pouch. There isn't any further increases in the near future either.
They actually are sheer, but can be blotted down to a matte stain, or they can be layered for a less sheer look. Here's a vid with hand and lip swatches- http://youtu.be/uBmtNBWUzF0
There was a price increase when it first went to Sephora (from my understanding THAT was the increase associated with Sephora being added to the supply chain). They went up to $16 last year around the time that they were announced for Sephora. Then they went up to $18 this year...I think right before Sci-Fi Lullabies. Unless both increases were associated with Sephora...all I know is that until recently only Sephora puchased lip tars came in the little pouches with the mini-brush. OCC orders came with the mini-brushes but not in the pouch.
I agree! If the formula is as great as it's anticipated to be, i hope they release a wide range of colours! A medium coral tone would be gorgeous, as well as some deeper vampy shades! Yeah the founder of the company wrote somewhere that they went to $16 and after they were almost in full sephora launch they went up to $18 because sephora was gonna be a supplier of product (how that would increase the price i dunno. I changed from a business major in college :haha
. But that since the sephora launch/price increase there were no plans for additional price increases. A $2 increase like that is crazy, when you compare the price/quantity to other lipsticks, the price seems reasonable. But i agree a hike that big is a shocker!
