OCC lip tars

I am just going to get NARS Mekong and MUFE Aqua Eyeshadow in 8E. All the lip tars I want are gone, but I am making a trip to NYC next month, so I will haul them at the OCC store then, if Sephora 76th and Broadway doesn't have them. I really want to get the BI points when I buy them, but Sephora keeps selling out! I guess they didn't know how popular they were going to be, which is silly to me because they have been online favorites for years.
I have Gilda and it's lovely. I never intended to get Gina. I swatched it a while ago and got Gilda instead because it's darker compared to Gina. Gina looked too light in the swatch I did, so I passed on it. Now I'm more experienced. I realize that lighter swatches don't automatically mean Ashcake Ashly. Plus I think I had a dusty tester when I did my original swatch. With 20% off, I decided to just go for it.

That sounds like it will be a fun shopping trip. Do you know if the OCC store still carries discontinued shades? I would love to get Katricia.

I've just received my shipping email from Sephora. The set hasn't been canceled from my order.

That Cinderella mirror has been OOS for so long. I gave up on it. Try checking a Naked Palette at beauty.com. Today is the last day of their 20% off sale. I'm investing in NARS brushes. So excited.
You won't get the discount, but maybe you can still find the mirror in a store if you really want it. My store still has it.

Beauty.com extended their sale through the weekend!!! I went ahead and ordered tonight though. Not sure why I'm posting here b/c I ended up NOT getting any lip tars. LOL

I still need NSFW. I think it was in the Beauty.com Lip Tar Brights set, but I can't remember. I'm still holding out hope that Beauty.com will restock it. I do know Anime was also in that set, but I couldn't wait anymore to get that one.

I walked away from the Cinderella mirror, too. I saw it in the store a few weeks ago. I've been checking online since then to see if my store still has it in stock. It does. That may be a sign for me to get it. It's a nice mirror with a nice heft to it. It doesn't feel cheap and plastic-y at all.

nsfw wasn't available at my local sephora when i was there last - they were out of stock, and unfortunately we can't use the vib discount online up here! i'm going to check another sephora though on my way to visit my parents tomorrow...not sure whether all sephora branches have occ yet or not....

i wish we could just compose our own sets of five or something...usually there's at least one colour i'm not super keen on....

Thanks for posting that info. I got a few more last minute Lip Tars from Sephora. One of them was NSFW because I really wanted that color. I was going to wait to get it because I thought it was part of the set. I also got Psycho and Starlet. I have two colors from the Beauty.com set now. I think I'll still get it if it's restocked because it will still be cheaper than buying the other 3 colors individually. I'll probably just gift my extras to my daughter.

It looks like OCC's website restocked some colors, but Belladonna and Pageant are gone. Do they just switch out colors from time to time, or have they been discontinued? I would like to take advantage of the restock and get Radiate and Trollop, but I need a makeup time out.

If you sign up on their mailing list, they will send you an email when they decide to discontinue anything. These colors were not included in the latest email I received. I think they are just crazy popular. Everyone is wearing Belladonna right now.

I have read online that Strumpet and RX make a beautiful purple. Can anyone with them both mix them and post? Thanks in advance!

That sounds like a pretty combo. I wish I had RX to show you. That one is on my next-to-buy list.

I signed up for their newsletter and also saw the last call link. Those links aren't too obvious to find on their website even though the last call link is on the home page.

I have my Lip Tars from Sephora. I gotta say, I love Sephora's packaging. I like how each Lip Tar comes with its own brush and directions. I also appreciate the much larger and easier to read name labels. I've only tried on Lydia, Hoochie and Anime so far. Each one is very wearable to me. I was surprised with Anime. I was expecting it to be much brighter. It looks more magenta on me.

Girl About Town is exactly the shade that came to mind when I tried on Anime. I was also expecting it to be more like Nylon. It seemed so much brighter in swatces. I'm still happy with it. It just wasn't what I expected.
