MEOWWWWW...Jcat Wonder Lip Paint

 
 
 
Hey guys,
 
Jcat beauty were recent exhibitors at the IMATS LA show, and they have just released their new "Wonder Lip Paint."  This water based lip paint is an economic version of the OCC cosmetics "lip tars."  The wonder lip paints are light weight, intensely pigmented and come in a variety of colors.  Although you can maintain a glossy lip by applying lipgloss, the lip paints start our very glossy, but do set to a more natural finish.  Just like the OCC lip tars, you will need a lip brush to apply/"paint" this to your lips.
