OBSESSIVE COMPULSIVE COSMETICS

COMIC-CON: OBSESSIVE COMPULSIVE COSMETICS MAKES DEBUT AT     SAN DIEGO COMIC-CON AND LAUNCHES LIMITED EDITION LIP TARTM

Obsessive Compulsive Cosmetics makes their long-awaited debut at San Diego Comic-Con (July 18-21, 2013) in a collaboration with artist Gail Potocki.  

To commemorate their arrival into Comic-Con, Obsessive Compulsive Cosmetics has worked with renowned Symbolist painter Gail Potocki to launch a limited edition metallic Lip TarTM that is inspired by her latest series of paintings, “Fragmented Alice” — a uniquely macabre take on Alice in Wonderland.  The exclusive Lip TarTM in ‘Fragmented’ is a metallic acid green shade that boasts an unprecedented amount of metallic pigment, leaving a spectacularly foil-like finish on the lips that’s unquestionably attention-getting.  San Diego Comic-Con is the perfect platform to launch this collaboration as it has become the largest pop-culture event in the world and features not only comics but all aspects of popular arts.  Attendees of San Diego Comic-Con can be the first to pick up ‘Fragmented’ Lip TarTM: Metallic at the Century Guild booth (#2845) beginning on Preview Night, July 17th.

 

But that’s not all!  ‘Fragmented’ Lip TarTM: Metallic is a preview of what’s to come next from Obsessive Compulsive Cosmetics.  Stay tuned for more announcements coming soon on the full “Fragmented Alice” limited-edition collection, set to launch August 2013.

 

About Obsessive Compulsive Cosmetics

Founded in New York City in 2004, OBSESSIVE COMPULSIVE COSMETICS started out as a trade secret: a pro-only range of products available only at the most exclusive industry-only Professional Makeup emporiums. In a time when many cosmetic companies make the claim that their products are “Cruelty Free” simply because Animal Testing has become unfashionable and less cost-effective, OCC felt it was necessary to raise the bar on this issue. We pledge never to use animal-derived ingredients (including Lanolin, Beeswax, Carmine and more) in our products and accessories. Founder David Klasfeld is still directly involved in the formulation of all new products and as a makeup artist himself is sure to always bring the latest trends in colour to the market.   www.occmakeup.com
