There is a new lip gloss in town, that’s putting pretty
smiles on faces all over the map. I’m
sure you are dying to know what it is… Well honey, it’s called “Lip Tar” from
Obsessive Compulsive Cosmetics.
I’m sure you are wondering why OCC Lip Tars are so GREAT??? First let me start off my saying the OCC Lip
Tars come in every color imaginable. In
addition to that, a stunning new innovation in lip color, OCC Lip Tar combines
the longevity of a lipstick, with the ease of application of a GLOSS. Goes on slick and moist, and dries down to a
satin finish. Ultra-saturated in color, Lip Tar contains an unprecedented
amount of pigment - a little goes a very, very long way! An intense yet
featherweight layer of color that stands up to the scrutiny of Hi-Def Video and
Digital Photography, without ever looking (or feeling!) heavy.
Oh and did I mention you lips will be pretty and KISSABLE? OCC Lip Tar has a simple, elegant formula that contains Hemp Oil, Peppermint Oil and Vitamin E, OCC Lip Tar feels as good on the lips as it looks!
DIRECTIONS: Apply the tiniest bead of Lip Tar with a Lip Brush for complete, opaque coverage, either mixed with other shades or on its own. Applying too much product can result in feathering outside the lipline, so remember: a little goes a very long way!

As I have talked about before you should prime you eye first and for this I recommend a NYX Jumbo pencil BLACK BEAN
After applying the Black jumbo pencil to the eyelid.
You want to use a flat bush and put the mac carbon or any black eye shadow you have and place it on top of the lid you primed.
after that you can blend it out a bit with a fluffy shading brush.
I chose not to put liner or lashes on so you can see the eye shadow smoked out and blended

Its a lipstick full of pigment but it also has nourishing properties like a balm. I tried this lipstick last week and I was pleasantly surprised. Oh and did I mention it has peppermint in it also...LOVE it!!!!!!
Glamed up lashes is what I like but I'm sorry yall, I am not a big fan of false lashes. A good mascara is important for me.

Soooooo I am super happy to tell yall about a mascara I feel is finally PERFECT!!!!!!!!!!!

Hello FRESH FACED BEAUTIES!!!!!! Ok, as yall may already know I recently changed the name of my beauty blog from "Beauty as Moni Knows it" to "Expert of Beauty as a result I had to make a NEW facebook page. Soooooo honey, can you please go and "Like" my page??? Thanks!!!
Here is a QUESTION from one of my FRESH FACED BEAUTIES...
Q: Ugh... Why are my lips so chapped and what can I do to fix it?
A: Sometimes something as simple as licking our lips too many
times can cause are lips to get chapped, because we get rid of the natural thin
layer of oil on the surface. Oh and believe it or not you don’t have to be out
in the cold to get chapped lips. When you crank up the heat during cold
weather, the air in your home tends to become very dry. Chapped lips could also
mean you may not be drinking enough water.
• How can
you protect your lips from the elements? Here is my TOP 3 MUST HAVES that will surely
protect your lips in addition to having them feeling smooth and moist.

• What are
some tips to keep your lips from chapping? Trust me honey, I know this is hard
but try NOT to lick your lips, it
will just make it worst. As I stated before during cold winter months our homes
are nice and toasty so keep a humidifier in your room and keep it on during our
much needed beauty sleep. Keep something on your lips at all times, don’t give
them a chance to feel dry. Oh and last but not least, dink lots of water.
Well as always I hope this helps...
