Obsessive Compulsive Cosmetics Lip Tar in Anita

Press Sample

Anita is described as a browned burgundy. It’s a deep, dark brown with reddish-burgundy undertones. To me this is more brown then burgundy BUT you can definitely see the burgundy in it. It’s incredibly pigmented, and as is par for the formula, a little goes a long way as it always is with Lip tars. 

If you've never had a lip tar, they do have a minty smell, but it's faint. It does smell really nice, so it's not something that you have to be overly worried about. I found that with this lip tar, it did seem a little thin to me, but it isn't a problem at all. I do advise though that you shouldn't forget to line your lips with at least a CLEAR lip liner or something. Now since I don't have a lip liner I usually don't wear this because it feathers on me like no other. I do wear this when I wear foundation and I use my concealer to line the edges of my lips to help kind of deter Anita from snaking it's way into the fine lines that I have. 

Anita is such a gorgeous color and while it's not my "go-to" I have found myself wearing it quite a bit in the recent weeks. You can wear this where it's not too dark and I will show you what that looks like down below!

Cranberry Smoke

I had no idea what to call this post. I asked Chris and he said "Hazel me blue"...men..especially him lol.. Silly silly.

This is a look I did the other night just out of the blue, I was going to work on some Halloween makeup looks until I realized I barely had any makeup remover, so it resulted in just ONE look for now. I know tomorrow is Halloween and I'm going to try and work on something awesome! I just hope that it works out! I need to see if I have the costume for it. >D Anyways, so this is the look I came up with! Thank you too Tricia for helping me think of a name! I was hung up on something else, but it didn't fit and Chris' definitely didn't fit at all! :P

So for this being an on the whim look, I like how it turned out ! I used to really love doing dark looks many moons ago, and I'm starting to like them again! I would do wear this on Halloween!

Work Appropriate Eye Makeup

This isn't one of the looks that I was going to do for Halloween, but I kind of forgot to write down the list of products that I used before I jumped on the computer, so that will be the next post coming up! First I do want to show you all a perfect example of a work appropriate eye. Now, a lot of people aren't able to wear bright colored shadows to work, When I worked at Hess, we were supposed to only wear neutral shadows but luckily I had 2 managers who were totally okay with me wearing funky colors eye makeup as long as it wasn't something that would interfere with work and what not. But this example is a good one of something that could be apropriate in all kinds of settings!

On Instagram, taking pictures through the lens of my glasss has become a kind of typical thing for me. Especially since people are always asking about makeup that is appropriate for glasses. Girls/Guys wear whatever you want! It's all glasses apropriate! ..well except for maybe crazy false lashes! :P

Dem bags!

Products:

• Too Faced Shadow Insurance
• Urban Decay Gunmetal (crease/outer corner)
• Urban Decay Verve (lid)
• Urban Decay 24/7 Eye liner - Perversion
• L'Oreal Lacquer Liner - Slate
• Givenchy Nior Couture 4-in-1 Mascara

I REALLY love how this turned out! Then again I'm sure I've done this look pleanty of times! I'm sure you're all tired of seeing me doing neutral looks though! :P

I figured that to spice this look up a little bit I would pair it with two lip colors!
The first lip color I used was L.A. Girls Glazed Lip Paint in Hot Mess.
I think this is a gorgeous orange-y lip color that could definitely work, well for work!

The second lip color I went with is much darker and it's Obsessive Compulsive Cosmetics Lip Tar in Anita.

This is probably my darkest lip color and while I LOVE wearing it, I rarely do! Y'all know that i am NOT a lip girl, but I'm trying to change this! I applied this very lightly to give it more of a sheer look!

What do you think? Is this something that you would wear for work?! Or just wear out during the day?!
