I was fortunate enough to scope out Obsessive Compulsive Cosmetics at the Makeup Show last week. Those of you that know me and read my blog know that I LOVE color, LOVE IT! I don't like sheer, dainty, or natural. I am a huge fan of colors that reach out and grab you, pull you in and don't let go.I am not going to beat around the bush, These are, in a word, AMAZING! The lip tars go on shiny and smooth, but dry down to a creamy matte finish. They are not drying, and a little bit goes a really long way. The beauty of these babies is that they are meant to be mixed, to create a whole rainbow of colors. You can go from dramatic to demure, and all it takes is a drop of gloss. I cannot even begin to tell you all how much I love these.
Oh, and did I mention this line is 100% vegan? You gotta love that.
Swatches:
L-R, Top to bottom:
Traffic, Uber, NSFW, Katricia, Tarred
Pageant, Melange, Grandma, Rx, Feathered, Safety Orange
My experiment with mixing Pageant with Katricia led to this beautiful color:

Mocha, that just might be an awesome combo! You are so very welcome and thanks for stopping by ;)
Hey Adina,
I would love to know how did you mix the colours? Did you just squeeze some onto the back of your hand and use a brush to mix?
I hope they bring this to the Australian IMAT so I can get some!
Anonymous, just mix them on the back of your hand or on a palette. They all mix beautifully!
^Thank you. These sound right up my alley, I love mixing colours!
(sorry I forgot to say who I was earlier,I was too excited! )
Sweetbabyblue, I agree! Its so fun to take colors into your own hands by mixing!
