OCC lip tars

[PixieDancer]

oy I hate tweaking anything... if it doesn't work right off the bat, I call it quits.

I'm mostly like that too... especially if I'm trying to get the perfect nude shade. But lip tars are fun to mix and play around with. I like creating shades with them! But for a go-to color, I wouldn't depend on mixing them every time. For normal lippies, if they don't work on their own, I won't drive myself crazy being a mad scientist trying to tweak with liners, gloss, etc. But if you just want to play around, these can be fun for that! I've come up with some cool colors... but I don't know if I could recreate them if I had to! LOL You get the "prefect" shade with that one mix!

If anyone has the new Trick lip pencil and has any dupe recs (MAC or NYX) I'd really appreciate it! Trying to see if I really "need" Trick to do the lip combo I saw online. Certainly Trick pencil can't be that unique, right?

Hmmm how about subcultured from Mac ? I might be wrong cause I haven't seen trick in person but here is subculture

Ok maybe trick is yellower while subcultured is more pink? I need color comparing classes from liba

Ahhahahahahhaaa! So do I! I have every imaginable lip pencil by MAC and tons by NYX! I'm sure I have a dupe for that OCC Trick pencil... but you know I'll get it anyways since I found a combo I love with it! At least I know I'll use it! I use nude pencils to death! Thanks for being such a good detective!! You ROCK!

i agree with pixie. i always want my Mac Lipticks to work straight out of the tube but with liptars i like the whole mixing thing. its fun.

YEAH!! When you start mixing you may score an awesome shade you can never duplicate again... but it's SO fun and that's part of what's cool about lip tars! I like the staying power of these and wish they had a nice everyday nude shade that worked for me on its own. The perfect nude search continues! But at least there are a lot of lip tar shades I really love! They do some really nice corals and even plumy mauves!

have you seen this one from too faced? Allura says the formula is very similar to liptars.

go to 1:45 for the swatch of Melted Nude. it looks pretty wearable. i hope sephora has it in on Sunday.

i love all the pinks i have from OCC pretty Boy is my fave.

That looks promising! I watched another youtube review... the girl was more olive complected and it looked a little orange on her, which I didn't like. But then every other lip swatch looked a little gross and globby, so it may just be her application. On Allura it looks really pretty! Sadly now I want more of those! The coral is crazy hot! LOL Hadn't heard of these! Thanks so much!

i think that the applicator? is not the right one since it makes people think they can use it right out of the tube, using a brush is problaby best.
i have read people complaing about liptars, and thats because they are not using a brush.

i want the violet, nude and ruby ones!

[User38]

it looks like whirl, spice -- what's the trick to trick?

 

[User38]

Ok maybe trick is yellower while subcultured is more pink? I need color comparing classes from liba

it looks like beurre / MAC.. and yes, on this, definite yellow base...liba is great with colour!

Girls, i got Divine and Trollop .i think they are wayy to bright on me, almost neon. would the black liptar help me tone them down? make them more wearable for me? any other suggestions?
