I also finally purchased the range of OC Lip Tars today! OC actually stands for Obsessive Compulsive, so you know I had to have them! They are 100% vegan and animal cruelty free, they're free of parabens and look amazing on camera. Plus, a little goes a really, really long way. The tests amounts per strip on my hands were about the size of a rice granule, no kidding! After getting my new little darlings home and testing them out, I have already found my favourites (top to bottom):
NSFW
A blue based red
Anime
A neon pink
Demure
A rich, purplish fushcia
Pageant
'Beauty Queen' fushcia
Grandma
A clean, classic coral - perfect for bridal. In fact, perfect for any occasion! I'm wearing it out tonight!
I purchased these for $14 each at the ACMUSE store in Annandale. They have a website where you can shop online too!
Do you like my blossoms?!
My housemate is a red Burmese, Charlie Ho Mah. He's allergic to most plants. Since he likes to chew on everything and since I love being surrounded by prettiness, I have to suffice with plastic florals.
Meet Charlie Ho Mah. My naughty little munchkie!
He's a sookie and loves cuddles with his Mummy, drinking water out of the tap rather than from his bowl, stealing used makeup wedge sponges out of the garbage bin (he can open the cupboard door all on his own), fake mice, chewing expensive shoes, getting in to Mum's closet and chewing off the waist ties on Leona Edmiston dresses and jumping in to the handbags of my friends and clients when they come over.

An update! I used 'Pageant' on one of my regulars today and she loved it! Teamed it with purple/cornflower blue eyes and glowing cheeks and it just looked divine!
I did wear Grandma out last night and I got so many compliments on how good I looked! I swear it was the lips!
Thanks for this post Christina, I've just found your blog and I'm very happy to add another Aussie blogger to my follow list!
I have a seen a lot about these OCC lip tars but I don't think I'm ready to take the plunge yet! They're a bit too intense for me for everyday I think.
I tried to follow your link to the ACMUSE online shop but I think you've accidentally left off the .au on the end. I figured it out in the end. However, I will totally have to check out this shop in person I think!
Charlie Ho Mah is a very cute little man :D I LOVE Burmese kitties but I've never seen a red one before - very jealous!
Keep up the informative blogging, I love the reviews and swatches!

Hi Miss Nesh,
Thank you for your beautiful comments!!!
Charlie is gorgeous - he's blonde on his belly, and red on his top...so cute!
That website has changed now. It is now http://www.scottysmakeup.com.au/ but I am purchasing most of my products now at http://www.lehved.com.au who also sell OCC Lip Tars!
I have been tardy with my blog postings in the past 2 months because I have been SO incredibly busy working, but I am always updating my facebook page and endeavour to get back to blogging as soon as I have a minute very soon!
