I WAS a business marketing major in college and I still don't understand the logic lol. Not to compensate a total $4 increase in less than a year if the only reason you're citing is widening your distribution channel. It's why I suspect that packaging DID play a roll in it also. Not sure if the pouch was originally Sephora's idea and maybe that's why they say it's because they started selling through them that they increased the price, but I can only imagine that doing so increased their production costs at least a little. Not sure if they always included the mini brush also but I would think those also increased their costs. I don't think it bothered me too much because the price per use and quality made the price reasonable (and the pro discount doesn't hurt lol) but the hike is a huge shocker that quick.
And yes, a medium coral tone would be perfect! And definitely some deeper vampy shades.

I love Lovecraft! And I already know I'm probably going to end up getting all of the stained glosses. I've learned to stop trying to claim I'll only get one...it never works out like that lol

That's what I thought. By the time I got in to OCC lip tars they were shipping them with the mini lip brush but not the pouch. The order I made during the Earth Day weekend sale came in the pouches.

They didn't always include a brush, i know that. So I'm sure it was a factor in the increase.

[h=4]I love the new Stained Gloss Lip Tars. I grabbed Androgyne, Jealous and New Wave. I really like they way they feel on my lips and I love the shine. The texture is great too, jelly like and not sticky. [/h] [h=4][/h] [h=4]Androgyne is the yellowish orange one and its very unique and beautiful. I think I've found my summer go to color. [/h] [h=4][/h] [h=4]Jealous comes up red orange on me and I normally don't like this color, but because it s a gloss it works. New Wave is pink and I live for pink. [/h] [h=4][/h] [h=4]To me, these feel like they have less peppermint in them. I didn't get the same zing that I get from the originals.[/h]

OCC said that it will be coming soon. It's just running behind the others.

I've never tried OCC products (with the exception of lip tars), but felt compelled to order some today. I don't really like lip tars, but the color Strumpet is way too gorgeous to pass up, so I ordered it at Sephora. I don't plan on wearing it alone, but layering it over my Mac Mattes.
1. Strumpet nail lacquer & lip tar set
2. Nail lacquer in Pond
3. Nail lacquer in Ripley
I've heard a lot about their nail polishes, so decided to try a few.

Strumpet is a gorgeous color solo too so you may find out that you love it! I only have one nail polish (NSFW) that I picked up in a set with NSFW lip tar at IMATS, but I do love the formula. I plan on picking up some more if I go to The Makeup Show Orlando or if I get a chance to stop by a Sephora this weekend in Atlanta. I'm too impatient to order polishes since they can't be shipped quickly due to regulations...plus I'll be honest...I hate to give up my OCC pro discount or the discount you get at a trade show unless I absolutely HAVE to lol. It's why I have held off on getting the new stained glosses...waiting for OCC to release them on their website. I did pick up the Pro's Picks v3.0 set from Sephora (just arrived today) because the price per lip tar is too good to pass up...AND 4 of the colors were ones I don't already have in my collection...and the clear one I had planned on getting another one of anyway

Thanks for letting me know! I also plan on wearing it alone, but I can't help to think how good it will look over Rebel and Riri Woo lol I like NSFW, but I have so many reds, that I cannot justify another one. I'm to the point that I have so many reds, I'm not interested in collecting more. I know what you mean about the pro discount. If I had it, I would have definitely waited to get it on the website. I can't wait to try these nail polishes. I hope I like the formula, because the colors are gorgeous. I might pick up NSFW nail polish. Surprisingly, I don't have many red nail polishes.

I didn't intend to get NSFW since I already found my 2 fave OCC reds (Vintage and Stalker) BUT when I was checking out at IMATS I saw the set and wanted to try the polish so I added it to the already too many purchases I was making that day lol. Like you, I have so many reds and I keep saying I don't need anymore...then something like RiRi Woo draws me in lol

Anyone that was waiting for OCC to have the stained gloss lip tars on their website, they are all up now! Even New Wave (Sephora still doesn't show that one). Was hoping they would so I could use my discount! So glad I was patient lol
