Technopagan

OCC Technopagan Lip Tar/RTW ($15.00 for 0.14 fl. oz.) is described as a "blackened purple with blue pearl." It is a brightened, dark bluish-purple with metallic shimmer. It is very comparable in color and longevity to the one in the squeeze-tube, but I noticed the consistency was thicker (and much thicker than your typical Lip Tar) so it appeared less glossy applied, which gave it a slightly darker look as light reflected less off of the finish. The color wore for over eight hours (and it was still going strong) and was neither drying nor hydrating for me. It's still one of my all-time favorite lip colors -- it is a total showstopper.
