I chose the color 'tone' because it looked gorgeous, I have been looking for a nice nudish white lip color for a while.
Tone is a whitened up clean pink. No brown or purple tones. It can make you look very washed out.
Swatches of tone:
Erm, I didn't like this color on me. It looked pretty gross, I won't lie. It made me look a bit ill and settled into lip lines. I loved the rich pigment and lasting power, but that's where it ended.
I had no idea that lip tars contained a lot of peppermint oil. Why? I don't know, but I really wish it didn't.
I find mint extract in lip products to irritate and dry my lips. That is exactly what happened after I used this lip tar.

I wish OCC would make a mint-free version, then I would be very happy.
Is anyone else out there sensitive to mint extract in cosmetics?

I actually thought it looked really pretty. lol I've never tried OCC lip tars either, but I heard that Sleek Lip Paints are a really good alternative.
I like the peppermint oil in these, however, I haven't worn my lip tar very much as it is green! I suspect it would be rather drying for long wearing purposes as you said.
