Plush

OCC Plush Lip Tar/RTW ($17.00 for 0.14 fl. oz.) is a muted, medium-dark plum with warmer undertones and a cream finish. It had full color coverage in a single stroke, which applied evenly and smoothly. The texture was slightly thicker, and I think one could easily get away with less product than what is on the doe-foot applicator initially. The color wore well for over six hours and was neither drying nor hydrating.

The formula is supposed to be “intensely pigmented” with “long-lasting, opaque coverage” with “moisturizing hemp and peppermint oils.” The majority of shades are very pigmented where a little can go a long way, and they’re a lot easier to apply from the tube now that they come with a doe-foot applicator. They are often long-wearing at over six hours, some lasting nearly eight hours, with some shades being slightly drying and others being non-drying. They are mint-scented but have no discernible taste.

Bon Bon

OCC Bon Bon Lip Tar/RTW ($17.00 for 0.14 fl. oz.) is a medium-dark, rosy plum with subtle cooler undertones and warmer, gold pearl. It had rich, opaque pigmentation that covered the lips with smooth, even color. The texture was light-medium in weight, more emollient but sat well on the lips and didn’t slide around while I wore it. The color stayed on well for over six hours and was neither drying nor hydrating.

Scrub

OCC Scrub Lip Tar/RTW ($17.00 for 0.14 fl. oz.) is a bright, light-medium aqua with subtle, cool undertones and a cream finish. It had nearly opaque pigmentation, and for the type of color, it applied rather well–but it could have been a bit more even and there was slight settling into my lip lines. The consistency was light-medium in weight, moderately slippery, and spread easily across the lips. It wore well for five hours on me and was slightly drying.

Sybil

OCC Sybil Lip Tar/RTW ($17.00 for 0.14 fl. oz.) is a deep, dark brown with subtle, cool red undertones and a cream finish. It had nearly opaque color coverage that applied evenly and smoothly to the lips. The texture was thinner than other Lip Tars but still spreadable and rich in opacity. This shade was still going strong after six hours of wear and was non-drying.

St. Sebastian

OCC St. Sebastian Lip Tar/RTW ($17.00 for 0.14 fl. oz.) is a muted, medium-dark purplish taupe with cooler undertones and a metallic shimmer. It had mostly opaque coverage, but more of my natural lip color came through and amplified the purple tones as a result. The color went on evenly with very minimal color that settled into my deeper lip lines. The consistency was smooth, comfortable to wear, and easy to work with. This shade wore well for five and a half hours on me and was non-drying.

OCC Spike Lip Tar/RTW ($17.00 for 0.14 fl. oz.) is a muted, medium taupe brown with neutral-to-warm undertones and a crema finish. It was richly pigmented and applied smoothly, though there was a touch of color that gathered in a couple of my lip lines (I didn’t feel like I could tell from a normal viewing distance). The product wore well for six hours and was neither drying nor hydrating on me.

Devotee

OCC Devotee Lip Tar/RTW ($17.00 for 0.14 fl. oz.) is a medium, peachy brown with warm, caramel undertones and a cream finish. It was richly pigmented and applied without streaking, but this shade had more noticeable color that fell into my lip lines, especially over time as the sheen went away. The consistency was weightier but seemed to move more as well. The color itself wore well for five hours and was slightly drying.

OCC Wish Lip Tar/RTW ($17.00 for 0.14 fl. oz.) is a muted, medium-dark rosy plum with subtle, warm undertones and a cream finish.

The texture was smooth, creamy without being heavy, and comfortable to wear. It stayed on well for almost six hours and was just a touch drying.

OCC Strange & Unusual Lip Tar/RTW

OCC Strange & Unusual Lip Tar/RTW ($16.00 for 0.14 fl. oz.) is a muted, rosy plum with subtle, warmer undertones and a fine, metallic shimmer. It had mostly opaque color payoff with a smooth, lightweight consistency that spread across the lips evenly. I’ve found that a lot of the Metallic shades have more slip and aren’t always as pigmented as the Cream Lip Tars, but this one was just right and went on nicely. It lasted for five and a half hours on me and was neither drying nor hydrating. Urban Decay Backfire (DC, $18.00) is less shimmery, less pigmented (95% similar). Sephora Cosmic Purple (105) (P, $14.00) is cooler, less glossy (90% similar). Tom Ford Beauty Theo (DC, $36.00) is less shimmery, darker (85% similar).

OCC Working Girl Lip Tar/RTW ($16.00 for 0.14 fl. oz.) is a bright, almost neon pink with subtle, cool undertones and warmer gold shimmer. It had good pigmentation, though not fully opaque, with a moderately emollient consistency that spread well across the lips but had a tendency to highlight lip lines. The brighter color made it less noticeable from a normal viewing distance at least! This shade wore well for five hours, left behind a stain, and was neither drying nor hydrating.

OCC Kelly Lip Tar/RTW

OCC Soy Latte Lip Tar/RTW ($16.00 for 0.14 fl. oz.) is a muted, medium brown with subtle, warmer undertones and a creamy finish. It was really, really pigmented, and I would recommend still using a lip brush to apply with smoother, more even coverage than using the doe-foot as this one seemed a little thick, but slippery. The color wore well for four and a half hours and was neither drying nor hydrating. MAC Dash O' Spice (LE, $21.00) is lighter, less glossy (85% similar). MAC Styled in Sepia (LE, $19.00) is lighter, brighter, warmer (85% similar). MAC Flesh Stone (LE, $21.00) is lighter, cooler, less glossy (80% similar).

OCC Poseur Lip Tar/RTW ($16.00 for 0.14 fl. oz.) is a muted, medium pinky-lavender with gray overtones and a subtle, cooler undertone paired with a cream finish. The texture was lightweight and spreadable across the lips without issue, but the color wasn’t quite as opaque as I am used to with the Lip Tar formula–but it’s pretty opaque, still. The color lasted for five hours and faded evenly while the formula was neither drying nor hydrating over time. Bite Beauty #005 (LE, $36.00) is less pigmented (90% similar). MAC Lavender Whip (LE, $19.00) is lighter, cooler (90% similar). NYX Playdate (P, $6.00) is darker, cooler, less glossy (85% similar). NARS Dayle (P, $34.00) is darker, more muted, warmer (85% similar). Tom Ford Beauty Liora (LE, $36.00) is more shimmery, lighter, less pigmented (80% similar).

OCC Kelly Lip Tar/RTW ($16.00 for 0.14 fl. oz.) is a bright, medium pink-coral with warm undertones and a frosted sheen. It had mostly opaque pigmentation with a lightweight texture that applied evenly on the lips. Some of the color gathered in my lip lines (especially on the bottom lip), but it wasn’t too noticeable from a normal viewing distance–I think the general brightness and glossiness of the finish helped camouflage it. This shade lasted for four and a half hours on me and was neither hydrating nor drying. Chanel Roussy (426) (P, $37.00) is less shimmery (90% similar). Tom Ford Beauty Ansel (DC, $36.00) is more shimmery, darker, more muted (90% similar). Marc Jacobs Beauty Have We Met? (108) (DC, $30.00) is less shimmery, more muted, less glossy (90% similar). MAC Lip Blossom (P, $19.00) is lighter, warmer, less glossy (90% similar). MAC Phosphorescent (LE, $17.00) is less shimmery, darker (85% similar). Bobbi Brown Spring Pink (DC, $37.00) is less shimmery, cooler, less glossy (85% similar). NARS Orgasm (P, $26.00) is less shimmery, darker, more muted (80% similar). See comparison swatches / view dupes side-by-side.

FORMULA OVERVIEW | OCC Lip Tar/RTW ($16.00 for 0.14 fl. oz.) is supposed to be a long-wearing, pigmented liquid lipstick. The formula is light-to-medium in weight with some shades with a thinner or thicker consistency. As you might expect, the thinner ones tend to have sheerer coverage, though the average Lip Tar is semi-opaque to intensely opaque (like the smallest amount is needed to get opaque coverage). The Metallic shades tend to be thinner and have more slip compared to the cream ones. The formula is sometimes drying, sometimes just not drying. The formula is mint-scented but has no discernible taste. The new Lip Tar/RTW comes with a doe-foot applicator, which makes it easier to apply from the tube than the original Lip Tars.

OCC Whatever Lip Tar/RTW

OCC Whatever Lip Tar/RTW ($16.00 for 0.14 fl. oz.) is a medium, minty green with warmer, golden shimmer. It had semi-opaque to mostly opaque color payoff, but it was the hardest shade to apply out of the six shades made for Urban Outfitters. The texture seemed too emollient, which caused the color to really settle into lip lines noticeably. It lasted for three hours and just felt higher maintenance as the color would slide around. The color is really interesting and not something I have seen, personally, but I would highly recommend a lip liner with this one. Dior Clover Matte (400) (LE, $35.00) is less shimmery, lighter, cooler (85% similar). Make Up For Ever C601 (DC, $22.00) is less shimmery, lighter (85% similar). NYX Risque (P, $6.00) is darker, cooler (80% similar). KVD Beauty Plan 9 (DC, $21.00) is less shimmery, darker, cooler (80% similar). See comparison swatches / view dupes side-by-side.

OCC Alt-Girl Lip Tar/RTW ($16.00 for 0.14 fl. oz.) is a slightly muted, medium-dark purple with subtle, warmer undertones and a metallic shimmer. It had mostly opaque color coverage, though I find a lot of the Metallic Lip Tars to be less pigmented compared to the creams, where a little goes a long way. The texture is more emollient and comfortable to wear, while the total wear was five hours. It was very lightly hydrating for me. Urban Decay Flashback (P, $18.00) is warmer, less glossy (90% similar). Urban Decay Mad Hatter (LE, $18.00) is lighter, warmer, less glossy (85% similar). MAC Wakanda Forever (LE, $24.00) is more shimmery, brighter, cooler (85% similar). Maybelline Violet Vixen (DC, $7.49) is less shimmery, darker, warmer (85% similar). Too Faced Pixie Stick (LE, $22.00) is darker (80% similar). MAC Own the Look (LE, $19.00) is less shimmery, warmer, less glossy (80% similar). See comparison swatches / view dupes side-by-side.

OCC Shoegazer Lip Tar/RTW ($16.00 for 0.14 fl. oz.) is a deep, reddish plum with subtle, warmer undertones and a cream finish. It was richly pigmented with a creamy, smooth texture that applied over the lips easily with even coverage. The doe-foot applicator does a fairly good job of getting crisper lines, but you might want to use a lip brush or lip liner to get those edges really crisp, as this shade stained quickly! It lasted for over eight hours and left behind a strong stain behind. The formula was neither hydrating nor moisturizing for me. There was something that really drew me to this color; it was almost not quite a warm plum but not really a cool-toned one either–the tone and depth made it more unique to me. YSL Berry Brazen (88) (P, $38.00) is cooler (95% similar). Bite Beauty Beetroot (DC, $26.00) is cooler (90% similar). Estee Lauder Thrilling (P, $32.00) is lighter, brighter, cooler (90% similar).

When I think about a go-to color for a bold, party look, I always think red. I’m curious to know what your go-to color is when you think about it! There aren’t nearly as many shimmery/metallic reds as there should be, in my opinion, that are permanently available. I’d love to hear about more that I’m missing out on!
