OCC Meta Lip Tar Stained Gloss
OCC Meta Lip Tar Stained Gloss ($18.00 for 0.33 fl. oz.) is described as a “red orange shellac.” It’s a bold, brightened orange-toned red with a luminous sheen. Dior Ceremony Red is bluer-based and shimmery. Chanel Exces is sheerer but similar in color (not as bright). OCC Harlot is similar in color (but a true Lip Tar). Illamasqua Fume isn’t quite as warm-toned.
It has a really lightweight feel and thin texture, and for the first three to four hours, there’s a natural sheen–not full-on glossy shine but still rather luminous. After, it has a subtler sheen and looks like a lip stain. The color coverage is much like a stained glass window; translucent enough that the natural lip color comes through somewhat but still a lot of color density. Meta lasts for six and a half hours well, and the stain lingers for another hour or so. It’s neither hydrating nor drying.

Loved it on you. I really want to try these OCC lip tars. Wish there were available to us India…
Do these have the mint oil in them like the lip tars do?
Yes, I believe so!
Oh waw, the color is fantastic!
There is no way this stained glass OCC formula is going to go by without me succumbing to a purchase or two.
Yup! I totally agree. Now if Sephora would hurry & get these in stock & take me out of my misery 🙂
This is totally the color I’ve been dreaming of!! Must have.
It’s a no brainer that I’m getting this…let’s be honest…I’m getting them all. I am officially an OCC lip tar addict so the stained glosses were automatically on my radar! I’m going to try and be done getting them for a little while after this, but….my will power is lacking as of late lol
Oooooh love this shade!
This is so bright it hurt my eyes, but in a good way!
I loved these when I saw them at The Makeup Show. I grabbed New Wave, Jealous and Androgyne.
This finish looks so promising. I can’t wait to try it.
Oh, this is stunning. Christine, do you happen to know if the formula/wear on these is similar to the YSL Glossy Stains? I’m totally in love with them but they’re so expensive, the Lip Tars would be a little more affordable!
I’m not very familiar with the Glossy Stains! I think I might have one but I’m not 100% sure!
I want this so much. Once I have some extra money IT WILL BE MINE.
This is very pretty, it looks like Mac Impassioned but glossier. It´s very pretty, but I wouldn´t buy this just because I very often apply makeup on the go or in a hurry and couldn´t bother with a lip tar I would probably make a mess with it lol, I generally just prefer lipstick.
Does it feather?
I didn’t have any issues with feathering.
How similar do you feel this shade is to Jealous? From the swatches, I could barely tell them apart.
I found the best way to compare was in the full face photos – Meta is noticeably redder, not as warm/orange, whereas Jealous looks more orange (with less influence by red). I don’t think you’d need both, though!
