[sss215]

mad to find that none of the new ones are up there yet...

Grrr. Arf-ing US Post Awful. Supposedly my package was delivered on Sept 8. I sure never saw it. I just kept waiting for it. Finally i went in to complain. They said they needed more information, a USPS Post Office confirmation number. So i went back a couple days later with the #. Now they say i need to phone another office and turn in some paperwork.

They "kindly" said i should re-order and USPS will pay postage... That means i would be paying $50 for 2 lip tars - plus the original $5 postage. Seems outrageous to me.

I am sooooo NOT amused.

I am surprised, I would expect this with UPS, not USPS. Nevertheless, I have experienced them to scan a package as delivered before they deliver it, then take it back to the regional office. I would go there, insist on talking to a supervisor and get to the bottom of it. Sorry that happened to you.

On another note, Sybil looks so dark in swatches. If I tried to wear it, it would look like I had been eating a Poo Poo Popsicle. NOT attractive in the swatches at all.

Wahhh I wanted a lip brush with Nylon.




And martiangurll - that is what's known as... a poopsicle.

I went to the local Sephora and they don't have the new ones yet

It usually takes 2 weeks or more before Sephora starts to carry new products that appear online (if that particular store intends to carry that product in the first place).

I guess I will just order from OCC direct. Sephora is taking too long to get the new colors on the site. I really like the clear pouch and lip brush. Perfect for on the go. I'm so glad I skipped MAC Chestnut. OCC Sybil is a better buy, especially for mixing, deepening and warming colors up.

Try the Sephora amazon store. They had the color I wanted that Sephora.com didn't have. Just google Sephora Amazon. It's legit.

I saw Nylon in Sephora in Atlanta with the mini lip brush included. I didn't read the whole thread but FYI when you order it online it doesn't come with the brush

 

[fairylite100]

Just found this thread and wanted to mention that lecosmetique.com has all the new shades. They have free shipping/no tax and they ship within like 12 hours of ordering (at least for me). Not affiliated or anything, just really love this site

The South Beach Sephora is currently carrying OCC lip tars. I want to get down there and swatch Penny Royal and Kava Kava. I was on the fence about them at IMATS. Hopefully I can get my hands on that Nylon and Grandma.

 

[shontay07108]

I hit up 3 Sephora's in Times Square today. Two of them had the lip tars. One had Nylon (with the brush) and the two stores had older shades like Strumpet, NSFW, and 2 light peachy/coral shades. They didn't have the new ones, so I didn't buy any. Blah.

 

[silentstorm143]

Cant wait to get some lip tars hopefully i love them as much as everyone I hear does. Oh and I don't know if anyone else saw this but I might even try it http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HmnTTdtXIMQ&feature=plcp Encore on youtube turned a lip tar into a lipstick

Well, seems like USPS somehow found my OCC package after all, which they supposedly delivered on Sept 8th... not! It was just delivered a couple days ago, and since i wasn't home, the carrier gave it to my landlady who lives downstairs. She just called to let me know she has it. Whew! I can't wait for tonight to see those pretty colors (Butch and Belladonna)...

 

[DILLIGAF]

I went to two Sephoras today one didn't have the display up and the other just had 3 colors in the impulse buy bins near the register. The colors were Strumpet, NSFW and Anime. I already have Anime and NSFW just doesn't interest me. Strumpet reminds me of a NARS lipstick I own( Funny Face). I'll wait until they get the full selection or purchase them from online

 

[TheLadyDanger]

I've been to my local Sephora and they only had three colors -- Grandma, Anime and another shade (it was a bright color). Hopefully, they'll be adding more in the future.

On a side note, I'm glad the Lip Tars now come in a small packaging with instructions and a mini lip brush. It gives consumers how to properly use the product. I was mortified to see a few girls at the store directly apply the samples onto their lips. What a gloppy stained mess!

I just purchased my first three yesterday @ brick and mortar Sephora and I love them. I got Anime, Grandma and NSFW. I went to 2 different Sephoras thinking they had something different and they were the same. I think I'm going to order a few online.

Boy, this OCC stuff is intense. A dot the size of a pin head on my lip brush is enough to cover my lips. For a brighter color, i put another pin head on the brush.

I am enjoying Butch today. I have ED Blue Orbit on my eyes, lined with Industrial Pearlglide Intense Eye Liner, which i find to be a chameleon, switching between blue-grey, teal, and periwinkle, depending on the light. For contrast i blushed with Light Year from Heavenly Creature, which is a pinky peach, to add warmth... and i topped my cheeks with a fan brush of Chenman Reflects Blue.

I'll test Belladonna tomorrow. I put a little swatch on my hand last night and it seemed a bit iridescent, but i'm not sure if that's really the case until i get it on my lips.

 

[sss215]

lots of colors sold out on Sephora's website, including what I wanted. i can't win!

 

[shontay07108]

DId you try Amazon's Sephora store? I really don't think Sephora was ready for how popular these things are. Hopefully, they restock soon for those who want something. My interest is waning b/c I'm annoyed at how fast it sold.
