Lit cosmetics (review)

 (Lit Cosmetics)
Product overview
Unlike similar products, Lit Cosmetics is made with all natural ingredients and prides itself in being water based, alcohol free (alcohol is a big, "no no" in cosmetics), paraben free, and Propylene Glycol free. 
       This product is great it's like a pigment glitter mix that goes on effortlessly it's like glitter and eyeshadow had a love child and LIT was born lol : P  the glitter base holds on to the glitter and makes it pop even more.These glitter go all the way to golden light netural colors to neon bright colors. There are no rules when it comes to makeup throwing glitter in the mix makes this product that much better. I like the little sparkle duster that comes with the kit Just in case you get a little fallout you can just sweep it away with the sparkle duster. There motto is " NO glitter NO GLORY!!!!"
 I use the glitter base with some other glitters that I had thinking that the base would work with other glitters.This base is formulated for these glitters it made my other glitters crumby and hard to apply after a while.
 I tried out the Multi-3 Stack Lit Kit: 3 glitters, 1 oz. Clearly Liquid Glitter Base, a “sparkle duster”, and two brushes—a thin liner and round brush. You can purchase everything individually of course, but with the multi-stacks, you’ll save $27 & up, depending on how many glitter shades you purchase.
                                                                                                                                                                     


















**PROS
Very fine glitter will not irritate eyes
alcohol free,no parabens 
assortment of colors                                                 ***CONS**
                                                                    Price...it's better if you just buy the kits than single glitter,
                                                                      it's $12.95 for one glitter : ? (Not a deal breaker for me)

OCC (Lip tars)


Very happy and excited to review this product we have ALL seen and heard the buzz about the occ liptars They are amazing!!! OCC lip tars are 100% Vegan and cruelty free no parabens or harsh products,these lip tars contain Hemp oil,Peppermint oil, and vitamin E.
The colors that I have are Traffic (yellow), RX (Blue),Anime(Pink), Harlot (Red),Hoochie (light purple).. Theses lippies are like pure pigment mixed with a little gloss, This product goes on slick and moist and dries to a matte finish .A few drops go a long way not to mention you can mix customize your own colors. (Some of these lipies should only be mixed)The tube is much smaller than I thought it would be and yes this product DOES stain. Applying to much product will make make your lips run,bleed (not sexy).
**Price- $13.00
** PROS:                                                                                       **CONS
*A little goes a long way                                                          *Will dry your lips

(Primer)
     $25.00 | 1 FL. OZ.   An extraordinary multi-use product, it can be used alone to sheer out existing OCC Skin™ shades. As a mixing medium, it’s also used to emulsify our Loose Colours for custom colour airbrush applications. Because it has the same natural matte finish as our foundations, it also functions as an effective anti-shine spray.
(OCC Primer) My first airbrush primer I do not own an airbrush machine and was a little sad by not being able to try this primer out but after speaking with several well educated MUA's I was told that yes I could still use it...This product reminds me of the M.O.M (milk of magnesium) I've used that as a primer and a oil controller for some time now feel like the same thing on my skin as well.I will say to much M.O.M will give you a ashy white cast on your skin if not blended well before drying I did not get that from this product.

**PROS                                                                                **CONS
 *Goes on easy                                                          *Price ( a bit much for the small amount you get)
*Leaves no film or residue on skin
*Can be used as a anti-shine spray
*Can be used with or without airbrush machine
