That’s What She Said: OCC Lip Tars in Anime, Hoochie & Cha Cha!

Not the easiest to apply, but I really don’t know what I would do without OCC (Obsessive Compulsive Cosmetics) Lip Tars when it comes to a bold lip.

With shades ranging from wearable to the damn right crazy, there is definitely something for everyone. The application is tricky for first time users. You will need a lip brush or the colour will just go all over the place and look a mess. Once on thought they don't budge for hours.

The packaging is a sleek tube each containing 8ML of product, though recently OCC has changed the look of the Lip Tars so they have a finer nozzle (amongst a few other changes).

I picked up three of these babies at IMATS in February and oh my! I wish I would have gotten some more.
Anime – A seriously shocking bright pink.
Hoochie – A deep purple.
Cha Cha – A light peach.
All the colours can be sheered out depending on how much you use.

Out of all three Anime is my most worn though Hoochie is probably my favourite. I never wear Cha Cha because honestly, its not my colour. They don’t dry the lips at all and just generally look and feel absolutely stunning. I will 100% be picking up more of these when I can spare the pennies.

Us Brits can get the Lip Tars here at £9.50 for the new packaging =]
You can see a FOTD of me wearing Anime here and one of me wearing Hoochie here!

That’s What She Said: Victorian Disco World of Lipcraft Lipgloss in Pally Heals!

I’m not much of a lip-gloss girl really, as I don't like the sticky texture some can have (though some of my favourites are a little sticky). Mouth full of hair? No Thanks! So when I do find a lip-gloss I like, I'll exhaust it very quickly! One such product is the Victorian Disco Lipcraft Lipglosses! Come on, more Warcraft themes! Your really spoiling us here aren't you VD <3

Pally Heals* is described as a light pink with a golden duo chrome flash, the colour is absolutely gorgeous. Basic yet complex!

I'm actually very surprised and pleased with the wear time of this beauty. It lasts about 3-4 hours on my lips! Impressive for a gloss. I don't even notice its on to be honest, the texture is just so smooth and moisturising.

[Top – Without Flash, Bottom – With Flash]

Sorry for the dry lips above haha!
They come in a tube with a doe foot applicator (the samples coming in a 5g jar). There is also a choice of what flavour you want your gloss to be! You can get the full size (5.9ml) here for $8.
I am 100% going to be ordering full sizes of Buffs Plz and Space Goat some time soon! Pretty pretty!

NOTD: OPI Ya’ll Come Back Ya Hear? Bright Orange Much!

Nailpolish is back! I think I'm officially out of my nail polish rut. As I mentioned a few posts back, I’ve not been wearing anything on my nails for at least a month. To be honest, they have been in worse condition for it. Using a polish stops them from breaking, peeling and bending, allowing me to have nice long nails!

This colour really was an impulse buy when i went to London, as it was cheap and I didn’t have an orange in my collection, it was so justified!
I believe this from the Texas collection released Spring 2011. It applies really smoothly, probably needs about 4 coats and for the price I paid who can complain?

The little bit of wear on the tips is because I was too impatient between coats and started putting some clothes in the washing machine. Oops! I also really couldn't resist adding abit of glitter as an accent nail!

That’s What She Said: ES A613 Eyelashes!

It’s all about the lashes! Sparse and short are two words I would use to describe mine. It sucks, but that's what falsies are for!

So today I have a false eyelash review for you! The ES A613’s* come in a box of ten. Handmade with a transparent stem, these beauties claim to make your eyes look bigger and more attractive. They feel really soft compared to some of the other pairs of lashes I have (Nouveau I'm looking at you!) which is really a plus for me. I don't want plasticy feeling things on my eyes.

I’ve found they’re actually pretty easy to apply, more so than the Fero Beauty ones i was previously using. They add just enough length to make my eyes look abit more dramatic, but still natural! They most definitely open up my eyes more.

I would still recommend lining the upper eye with black, especially if your not an expert on falsies. As you can see in the image below, they add gorgeous length to little lashed people (you can see a picture of my bare eye here)!

For those of you who want to know, my eye-shadow is Victorian Disco Frozen Throne* and Sin’dorei*.

Priced at $14.90/£9.27 for 10 pairs, I get about 3-4 wears out of each set. You can buy the ES A813* at KKCenterHK Here! I really recommend checking them out. You can definitely expect to see them in some of my upcoming looks!
I have also kindly been offered a discount code for my readers! Enter bloodfeatherslipstick at the checkout for 10% off KKCenterHK products.

That’s What She Said: Victorian Disco Cosmetics House Points Collection!

Hey hey! I have an indie review for you today, I’m really getting into the scene/community at the moment! Victorian Disco are the first of these individualy owned companies I properly tried and ordered from. I was sent some samples back in December when the company launched (see my review here) and I’ve been in love ever since!
I am a promoter for VD, meaning I am sent new products to try every now and again, but this collection I bought with my own money.

The House Points collection contains 4 loose shadows, based around Harry Potter (Duh)! I’m sure it doesn't take a genius to figure out which colour is what.

Godric – A rustic red with a golden sheen, shimmer too!
Helga – Deep dusty gold with a blackish undertone!
Rowena – Bright slate blue with silver sparkles and shimmer!
Salazar – Shamrock green with bright silver shimmer!

Each full sized jar contains 2g of product! You can buy a full sized shadow individually for $4.50 or all four for $15! Not bad eh?
Now what I love the most, is the application! Using loose products can be tricky at first, but once you get the hang of them the colour payoff is intense. I’ve swatched these colours both on their own (the left hand swipe) and using a mixing medium (the right hand swipe) so you can see the difference.

[L-R: Godric Dry & Wet, Helga Dry & Wet, Rowena Dry & Wet, Salazar Dry & Wet]

It really is amazing what a little bit of mixing medium (or even water) can do. I like being able to run my fingers over a colour and not have any of it rub off, which is what happens when loose shadows are used on their own.
Your can buy Victorian Disco Cosmetics here, I really do recommend checking them out. Their customer service is also second to none! Ashley loves to interact with her customers. My first order ended up getting sent back at customs and she kept me up to date with what was happening every step of the way.

What’s your favourite indie company? Have you tried Victorian Disco? What your favourite product from them?

For some reason the black looks streaky on these photos, as it didn't in life!
I still need to perfect rocking the bright brows, but I’m pretty pleased with them in general. I do have a bright colour thing going on at the moment!

What do you think of the hair? What's the most daring thing you have done with your brows? I remember I used to shave mine off and draw them on cyber-goth style back in the day! Not a good look for me haha!
