BEAUTY

Beauty-full!

Written by Alaine

Every year around this time I can depend on attending The Make Up Show and stocking up on my professional make up kit by taking advantage of the deep discounts that the show offers. I picked up a new portable airbrush machine and replenished some essentials like disposable make up removers (Korres Pomegranate Wipes), mascara wands, lip applicators, extra brushes, blotting papers (Alison Raffaele’s blotting papers) and then I take a look around to see whats new and fascinating.

I came across Obsessive Compulsive Cosmetics line of lip glosses called Lip Tar. These glosses are highly pigmented (Read: NOT for beginners!), creamy NOT sticky, free of parabens, 100% Vegan & Cruelty-free, photographs well under high definition photography & video, and you barely need a pinky’s worth to cover your lips. Even better yet, these are so inexpensive you can afford to purchase more than one without breaking the bank.
