Obsessive Compulsive Cosmetics and Gail Potocki have collaborated in coming up with a new color collection based on a series of Gail Potocki's Fragmented Alice paintings.
These limited edition colors include an acid green and gold-laced metallic stained gloss (Fragmented - $18), three loose colour concentrates ($14) - (Inflicted - Pink Opal, Curved Sky - Iridescent White/Blue-Violet, and NEVAR - golden olive), and two nail lacquers ($10 - Severed - Bright Crimson Creme, and Gryphon - Cement Grey Creme)
The names of all of these colors were provided by Gail Potocki, and the colors themselves were all based on her paintings. They wanted to make colors that have a meaning behind them, and not just creating colors for color sake. OCC sees makeup as an art medium, where their artists are makeup artists, and they don't see a line between makeup and art.
MakeupTalk was recently invited an exclusive launch party where we were able to preview these colors on the model in the paintings. Gail explained that a lot of her paintings in the past tend to have an environmental theme to them, so she was really happy to work with OCC, being a cruelty free company.
The Fragmented Alice painting collection can be viewed in Century Guild's Los Angeles showroom in Culver City, CA. The Fragmented Alice OCC collection is available at occmakeup.com, centuryguild.net, and in the Obsessive Compulsive Cosmetics flagship boutique in New York City, and at Century Guild in Culver City.
