\nIf there’s one thing I’ve learned as a makeup artist: When working on photoshoots, creme is your new best friend. Creamy products make your models look like angels, hopped onto the #120 flying bus to earth. Where powder can look cakey and lose its power on picture, with cream what you see is what you get.<\/p>\n

One of my favorite brands O.C.C<\/em> came out with twelve new Creme Colour Concentrates<\/em>: A smooth, blendable, buildable creme coverage product that\u2019s gorgeous on eyes, lips and cheeks or wherever saturated, creamy colour is desired..
\n<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>\"\"<\/a>

O.C.C’s Creme Colour Concentrates<\/em> come in the same pot as their concealers. I love that they are see-through, making life so much easier when searching for the color you need. However, with my O.C.C Skin Concealers<\/em> the lids of these pots broke very easily. Great packaging, but I wouldn’t call it durable heaven.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>\"\"<\/a>\"\"<\/a>
\nO.C.C Creme Colour Concentrate<\/em><\/em>: \u201cIcarus\u201d \u2013 (\u20ac15,00 EUR \/$20,00 USD)<\/strong><\/em> –<\/span>
\nFirst up: “Icarus”<\/em>. A beautiful true yellow gold color, perfect for a high fashion gold pop on the lid or cheekbones for my dark skin-toned babes out there. In the mean time the only thing I can think of is Bastille’s song “Icarus<\/a>“.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>\"\"<\/a>\"\"<\/a>
\nO.C.C Creme Colour Concentrate<\/em><\/em>: \u201cNewt\u201d \u2013 (\u20ac15,00 EUR \/$20,00 USD)<\/strong><\/em> –<\/span>
\nMy favorite of the entire bunch. Such a fresh and happy color! “Newt”<\/em> is deliciously creamy, pigmented and easy to apply. Amazing as a blush or lipstick! Little warning: it does come out much more pink and deep than expected, as it looks like a pale peach in the pot.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>\"\"<\/a>\"\"<\/a>
\nO.C.C Creme Colour Concentrate<\/em><\/em>: \u201cPleasure Model\u201d \u2013 (\u20ac15,00 EUR \/$20,00 USD)<\/strong><\/em> –<\/span>
\nThis frosty, pearlescent pink is too cute for words. I can totally see a little brat from hell on “Toddlers and Tiaras”<\/em> rock this. Don’t judge me, haha. “Pleasure Model”<\/em> is nice and soft making it perfect for a dewy cheekbone highlight.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>\"\"<\/a>\"\"<\/a>
\nO.C.C Creme Colour Concentrate<\/em><\/em>: \u201cBeholder\u201d \u2013 (\u20ac15,00 EUR \/$20,00 USD)<\/strong><\/em> –<\/span>
\n“Beholder”<\/em> is a beautiful true teal color. Use it as a pop of teal cream on dark smokey eyes, apply to lips to be a true teal-lip hipster or go fashion cray-cray and brush some through your brows to sort of get this<\/em><\/a> effect, but teal.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>\"\"<\/a>\"\"<\/a>
\nO.C.C Creme Colour Concentrate<\/em><\/em>: \u201cMercury\u201d \u2013 (\u20ac15,00 EUR \/$20,00 USD)<\/strong><\/em> –<\/span>
\n*Makes outrageous alarm sound*<\/em> Can we say “HELLO, Perfect inner corner hightlight!”<\/em>.
\nThis is metallic silver realness. The amount of possibilities you can use “Mercury”<\/em> for is countless. Can’t wait to slather this all over my models’ inner corners.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>\"\"<\/a>\"\"<\/a>
\nO.C.C Creme Colour Concentrate<\/em><\/em>: \u201cDark Matter\u201d \u2013 (\u20ac15,00 EUR \/$20,00 USD)<\/strong><\/em> –<\/span>
\n<\/em>A beautiful very, very dark grey. O.C.C says it has some green in it, definitely can’t see that one, but if O.C.C says it’s green, green it is. This colors is a must if you don’t own a black\/dark grey cream product yet. “Dark Matter”<\/em> can be used for about anything: brows, lips, eyes, face… you name it! Great addition to the collection.<\/p>\n

So, What\u2019s the verdict?<\/em><\/span>
\nO.C.C keeps surprising me. Product launch after product launch I’m left amazed at how
\ngood their stuff is. Their pigmentation, colors and just overall feeling is spectacular.<\/p>\n

These Creme Colour Concentrates are no different. They are pigmented, don’t have an unpleasant smell and just their entire quality is heavenly.<\/p>\n

So, if you’re in need of some good quality creme products, O.C.C is one of your best bets.
\nAlso O.C.C’s team is too lovely for words and I wish them all the love, support and luck in this world.<\/p>\n
