OCC Lip Tars - Custom Shades: Sweet Divinity, Sweetness, Shell Coral, Lilac Lovely
“Sweet Divinity” started with Katricia and NSFW, mix it up!
Here’s the last set of four shades! 🙂
“Sweet Divinity”
Finished!
“Sweet Divinity”
“Sweetness”
“Sweetness” started with Pageant and NSFW
Added Rx!
Finished!
“Sweetness”
“Lilac Lovely”
“Lilac Lovely” started with Katricia and NSFW
Finished!
“Lilac Lovely”
Note: “Lilac Lovely” is too cool-toned and too purple for me, but I thought it was a nice variation on Katricia. I would likely add Pageant and a bit of Feathered to lighten it up.
“Shell Coral”
“Shell Coral” started with Grandma, Pageant, and Feathered
Mix it up!
Finished!
“Shell Coral”
I like the last one 🙂
Yay!
i absolutely love shell coral on you!! wow this is my first time seeing these custom shades for lips..are these lip glosses?
Thank you, Melissa!
They’re more like liquid lipstick!
I want me some lip tars!!! Hellooooo IMATS. 😛 That last coral color looks GORGEOUS on you.
See ya there, girlie!!
These are beautiful! But the more I look at them, the more lazy I feel 😀
LOL!
this OCC Lip Tars are so fun! haha If I get it, I think I will enjoy mixing the colour more than wearing it. haha
Hahaha! I know exactly how you feel!
sweetness and shell coral came out great!
Yay! Thanks, Stephanie!
soooo, there’s a place in my town that sells OCC.. guess where i’m going!!!
Ohh, did you check ’em out, Sarah?
Shell Coral is so cute 🙂
Aw, thanks again, Mikki!
I love these you should do more!
I’ll try!
These look amazing! Really interesting combos, it’d be great to see more…it’s nice to have products to mix and match right? You’d probably find your holy grail colour by doing this!
I definitely think you could find that one color you’ve always wanted to find this way!
Shell Coral is amazing 😀
This looks just like when we where kids and have botles of primary colours and have to mix them to get the other colors 😀 ah ah ah
HAHA! Yes, SO true!
Thank you so much for these Lip Tar posts! I decided I need them all, LOL!
No prob, Mara!
LOL!
All these posts were GREAT. I would love to see you incorporate the Lip Tars into an entire look!
Thanks, Catherine! I’ll see what I can do!
shell coral is beautiful but I love sweetness more (i’m a sucker for hot pinks). I have two OCC lip tars that I got rom the makeup show nyc and I love them. I have grandma and safety orange. beautiful!
Haha, I am a sucker for hot pinks, too 😉
could you imagine these as eyeshadow bases? hmmmmmm……
They have peppermint oil in them, so they’re not eye-safe, just a heads up!
They are great fun, I loved them !!!!
Some colours you got are so MAC-ish !!
LOL! Maybe I have too much MAC on the brain!
What do these look like dry? Or do they stay how they are in the pictures? 🙂
Like this 🙂
these look great! have you already done lip swatches showing the shades on their own (before mixing)?
ignore that! i just saw yesterday’s posts…
Yeppp, I did 😀
you need to come up with more mixtures! i rly enjoy looking at them, lmaooo.
Aww, thanks Rayne 🙂
Where do you buy these lip tars at? I’ve never heard of the brand. It looks like fun to mix the colors.
I’m curious as well. i, personally, want to find them in a store….not order them off occmakeup.com or something like that.
I think they are primarily only available online, sorry!
You can get them at http://www.occmakeup.com. I don’t know if they have any stores/distribution points. I know they are at trade shows, like The Makeup Show and IMATs.
this is really cool~
Isn’t it? Kind of fun to mix your own shades!
I love “Sweetness” and “Shell Coral”! Good job making the shades – nice names 😀
Yay! Thank you so much!
I just got the clear occ lip tar to mix all my mac pigments. I love their texture
Awesome! What has been your favorite mix?
Shell Coral rocks! if it was in stores I would buy it!!
Aww, I am flattered!
I only like the last one.. 😀
Glad you liked at least one, though!
Omg , looks like a lot of fun =D
Love Sweet Divinity … I want!
It was for sure!
where can you get these? Do you have to order them online?
I think you can get them from occmakeup.com – I don’t know about any stores or anything!
Wow, how cool! These lip tars seem very economical, you could get so many colors and looks out of them 🙂
If you were really into it, definitely! I think they’re fun, though I’ll still be buying and using lipsticks and lipglosses, ha!
Lilac Lovely is on FIYAH!!!! LoL I love it.
Haha! Thanks, Vanessa!
Gorgeous! I might pick up a few of these at IMATS this weekend.
Awesome! When will you be there, Milan?
I still prefer lipsticks. But the Lip Tars must be a blast to play with. Do you really think they’re worth the money to just play around?I don’t know if they come with containers to mix them in. I just saw them here but really haven’t read about them.
They’re definitely fun to play around with! I don’t think I’d buy ’em all if you’re on a tighter budget, but maybe a few to have fun with, sure. They don’t come with any containers (I bought mine on eBay a long time ago, just search for 5 gram container).
ok another update
i love them!!!!!
they are very smooth and feel good on your lips
.the oil base i have gotten used to already.. i was applying too much..
after playing for a while i was using too much product..you only need a dot of each when mixing or you will be wasting it
also, you need very little for application.. wore it out yesterday and it lasted a long time before i needed to re-appl
If anybody wants to swap some lip tar samples, please let me know, I have Vintage and Melange that I can swap for. I’m looking for Hush and Conquest sample jars. I’m on MUA as “Carmen”. You can contact me there. Hope this is ok to post, Christine…I can only afford a couple and want to expand my collection to mix.
I bought the wrong color lip tar…does anyone want to swap? I haven’t used it at all. I need
the ivory lip tar. thanks girls!

Shell Coral looks super similar to Chris & Tell! 🙂
Hey Christine, thought you’d be interested in my attempt to make MAC colors with the OCC Lip Tars: http://bloomingartistry.blogspot.com/2010_11_01_archive.html
Let me know what you think!
Oooh, that’s very cool!
Thanks 😀 I think I’ll try more MAC dupes when I have more time. So much fun playing with these! It’s like art class!
i love your lovely lilac combo. who knew purple with red would make lavender. i just recently bought katricia and feathered, hoping to get that exactly same color you made with nsfw and katricia. i haven’t received my package yet as i just placed order yesterday but do you think it will make that lovely lilac color you made?
it would be greatly appreciated if you could please try and see for i will have to put in another order asap to get nsfw for ths is for a big event coming up and i have to have lavender lips
I think it could!
I love seeing what colors you’ve made!
I’m a tiny bit confused about how Lilac Lovely came to be! I have both of those colors and I don’t understand how the resulting mix is a paler white-based pastel, when Katricia is a warm purple and NSFW is red. Did you add any Feathered into the mix? Or maybe it’s just a trick of the light? Mixing any NSFW at all into Katricia here at home results in a darker and warmer purple.
Love the photos!!
