Makeup Monday // Ofra Cosmetics Highlighters

Makeup Monday // Ofra Cosmetics Highlighters 


When I tried my first highlighter from Ofra it was an instant game-changer. I'm sure you've already heard about them or may even have one (or a few because they're that good) yourself, but mine is still worth mentioning since I haven't put them down this summer. You may be aware that everything I have blogged about so far has been me hyping up a product or just showing loved products. With that being said I plan to continue that with only showing adored products (and of course other subjects I love) and keeping my blog a very positive place. Although my thoughts on every product I blog about will be honest, you can check out my channel for more raw content that does involve sometimes not being happy with the outcome. 
Now back to this blog, I have used these highlighters since the beginning of this year. Why it took me so long to try them is beyond me. I feel like the only time Ofra is mentioned in post/videos is for their highlighters or liquid lipsticks and me being one of those people. Branching out to these has made me more interested in what they have to offer and look forward to trying some more from Ofra. They're famous for these highlighters for a reason. They're literal butter and just glide right on. What I absolutely love is the formula. It's not chunky or glittery (I say that about just the three I personally own) and wears amazingly. They're very pigmented so what I recommend for those who want just a light touch of the highlight is to barely dip in and swoop it lightly on the high points of your face, but I'm telling you if you like beaming highlighters you can layer up for an intense glow. It's comparable to Jeffree's Skin Frost formula when it comes to pigment, but I actually find myself using these more than my Skin Frost. I, unfortunately, have textured skin and with that, you have to be careful because certain highlights will empathize that texture. That was probably the biggest game-changer (and the fact that they're absolutely stunning!) for me with these. They glide on so smoothly whether you want it more subtle or beaming. The range of shades they have also make it nice. 
I do want to mention each one I have in my collection with the first one being the one I reach for the most. Rodeo Drive. This highlighter is beautiful. Although this shade would work better with medium-tan skin tones I can say I still love this shade for giving me a subtle glow. It's light enough that it doesn't leave a streak on my face like some highlighters may do to you if they are too dark for your complexion. This just gives the most perfect glow! Rodeo Drive is in Ofra's newest packaging since their "re-branding" on their design. The other two I will mention are in the older packaging. 
Star Island is probably the best shade for my complexion. It is a blinding highlight that will literally make you shine. It is stunning! A little goes a long way with this shade and I will probably never have to buy another because of that reason. If you have a deeper than fair complexion this shade will pull more icy on you. 



Lastly, I have Ofra x Nikkitutorials shade Everglow. I swatched all three down below, but as you can see this pan has three shades going on. The swatch mentioned is of all three mixed. I personally dip into the two lightest shades. Although it beautiful and so handy to have a highlight for different complexions all in one I can say that if you have the other two you could totally pass on this one (that's if you are fair like myself) because those two lighter shades are so close to the two others (Rodeo Drive & Star Island) that I mentioned above. If you have a deeper than me complexion once again you will probably enjoy this more and even the results of this being mixed.

Skincare & Makeup Haul

Skincare & Makeup Haul I've never done a "haul" on my blog before, but I thought it would be a cool idea plus it would be a sneak peak of things that I'll be trying out for future reviews.  Skincare: I have been loving trying out new skincare items and although my skincare bin is a little full at the moment there was a few things I was running low on and a few things that I couldn't pass on!  I was running low on both makeup removing wipes and micellar water, so I picked these up at Target. I often use a moisturizer from the Simple brand, but I've never tried their wipes or micellar water before. It's cheaper in the long run buying the two pack of wipes, but I do hope these work good!  My nose has once again started getting clogged with blackheads. I've been trying out a few different foundations and wearing makeup just about everyday and my skin just isn't use to that. After taking a two week break from makeup a...

July Monthly Beauty Favorites

  July Monthly Beauty Favorites  I've been keeping my fingernails pretty naturally and trying to get them more healthier and longer looking, but I got this Kokie nail polish in an Ipsy bag a couple months ago and I've been using it a lot this summer on my toes. It's a really pretty periwinkle color. This is in the shade Heavenly. I actually bought this awhile back and used it (at least the body mist, as you can tell) so much. I've recently started using them again and have fallen in love with the scent once again. It's a mixture of vanilla and coconut. Those are my favorites!   FACE: For face care, I've still been using this  tarte Rainforest of the Sea Deep Dive Gel Cleanser . I absolutely  love this stuff! This is a "must have" and "holy grail" for me! It has helped my face problems (I still have some issues of course, but it's improved since using this religiously) so much and doesn't dry my skin out too much a...

Ricky's Cult Crushes // May 2018

Ricky's Cult Crushes // May 2018  You may already know, but I moved all of my subscriptions to my beauty channel: AllyBrianne   You can check out my unboxings there of all of my monthly and seasonal subscriptions.  The reason I'm posting this blog today is because I just got this months Ricky's Cult Crushes in the mail last week. I planned on filming a quick unboxing to post Sunday, but my weekend got away from me so here we are. This is only my second month receiving this subscription. I'm up in the air about it honestly. Last months ( Ricky's Cult Crushes // April 2018 ) was a good box, but sadly the pans in the eyeshadow palette kept falling out! You can see all that business in the video! I was disappointed because the shadows were great.. The packaging not so much.  If you don't know what  Ricky's Cult Crushes is... It is a $11 (now $14, I'll explain) monthly subscription that has mainly beauty items. This is a subscription throug...
