OCC Makeup Spring/Summer 2012 Collection

Hey Rosés,

Model Phylicia Jones showcases the new Garden Party collection

Last Friday, I attended the Obsessive Compulsive Cosmetics (OCC) Spring/Summer 2012 collection launch party at their studio in the Lower East Side. This vegan and cruelty-free brand revealed a new flower and fruit inspired highly pigmented collection called “The Garden Party.” It includes 6 new lip tars, 6 new loose eye shadows, and 6 new nail polishes. The color spectrum ranges from pink florals, leafy greens, and citrus oranges.

My new spring favorites (L to R):
Demure (berry-toned fuschia), Pennyroyal (darkest peach neutral), Memento (plum-toned pink)

Lip Tar is OCC’s infamous best selling liquid lipstick, pretty much magic in a tube! The ultra-saturated lip color has the longevity of a lipstick and moisture of a lip gloss. With just a small bead-size squeeze, you can wear as is for a lightweight opaque look, or blend with other colors to create a customized hue. The all-natural formula is great for sensitive skin, and even hours later and after eating it maintains moisture and color with soothing peppermint oil, vitamin E, and hemp oil.

Check out the new “Garden Party” collection and pics from the event:

Last week singer/actress/model/DJ/fashion extraordinaire Solange Knowles splashed the cover of TimeOut NY Magazine in full orange tangerine. What I love most about her spread is the flawless execution of mixing and matching tangerine clothing and beauty. Bright orange tangerine lips can be hard to pull off for any skin tone…

…Enter the Sephora + Pantone collection, great for all skin tones: deep, medium and fair. They have warmer and cooler hues of the orange sensation. There is a wide range of products from lipstick, powders, eye liners, false eye lashes, and nail polish.

Sephora.com even equips you with a shade matching tool so you can pick the best tangerine shades for your skin tone. Be daring, take a leap with Tangerine Tango this summer!
