Guess Who: The New Celebrity Faces of OCC

Obsessive Compulsive Cosmetics Anime pack

RuPaul’s Drag Race alums Willam, Detox and Vicky Vox are the first faces of Obssessive Compulsive Cosmetics. Just genius if you ask me! Their mugs will be gracing the packaging of Nail Lacquer and Lip Tar duos in the form of collectible trading cards launching exclusively at Sephora.com on May 7th:

Celebrity drag queens Willam, Detox and Vicky Vox become the first faces of Obsessive Compulsive Cosmetics.   These drag queens are amongst Hollywood’s most famous and can be seen on RuPaul’s Drag Race, Rihanna’s music videos, Nip/Tuck, American Wedding, and from their chart topping singles on iTunes as DWV (Detox, Willam, Vicky) and now on to the packages of Obsessive Compulsive Cosmetics.

Making their debut on May 7, 2013 you can find this dynamic trio wearing their favorite matching Obsessive Compulsive Cosmetics Lip Tars and Nail Lacquers in a collection exclusive to Sephora.com.  The celebrity drag queen collection of Lip Tar & Nail Lacquer Duo Packs will each come with a mini Obsessive Compulsive Cosmetics Lip Brush and Drag Queen Trading Card that Willam, Detox and Vicky Vox can be seen on.

This makeup-loving trio is a natural choice to sport Obsessive Compulsive Cosmetics long-lasting Lip Tar, which goes on slick and moist but dries down to a satin finish and densely pigmented Nail Lacquer.  The six packs of Celebrity Drag Queen Lip Tar & Nail Lacquer Duo Packs will each be offered at a special price of $22.50, and will include:

  • Anime – Bright Neon Pink Lip Tar & Nail Lacquer with Willam Trading Card

  • Black Dahlia – Super Blackened Red Lip Tar & Nail Lacquer with Detox Trading Card

11 Mar

A few you requested swatches of the Maybelline Color Sensational Vivids lipsticks in my last haul video.  I went out and got the rest of the shades at my local drugstore with the exception of Fire Red which I haven’t noticed on their displays (not that I need another red lipstick) and tried them on for you.  Check out swatches of Pink Pop, Fuchsia Flash, Shocking Coral, Vivid Rose, Electric Orange, Vibrant Mandarin, Neon Red, Hot Plum and Brazen Berry along with my first impressions in the video above.

Spring Makeup Haul: Hourglass, Dior, Sigma & More

5 Mar


Just when I thought I was going on an indefinite makeup no-buy after the holidays, several beauty brands coaxed me out of retirement with some new offerings this Spring.  I was literally stalking my local Sephora stores (I’m talking daily visits) for the Hourglass Ambient Lighting Powder and Dior’s Rosy Glow blush that has been making the favorites round on YouTube.  Check them out as well as the other damage I did in the video above.

Coming Soon: Riri <3 MAC

20 Feb

Riri Hearts MAC

That Rihanna reign just won’t let up!  In case you gave up social media for Lent you may have missed the big news:  Riri <3 MAC! MAC teamed up with Rihanna for a collaboration that yielded a total of 31 items to be released over a series of collections throughout the year. Head over to WWD for all of the tea.

I am so excited for this!  Rihanna’s makeup is always on point and I have recreated a few of her looks in the past.  Can’t wait to see the results of one of my beauty icons collaborating with one of my favorite brands.  What are your thoughts?

P.S. Can somebody hook me up?  The impending pandemonium is killing me already lol.
