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.

Good Molecules Pineapple Exfoliating Powder \\ Skincare

Good Molecules Pineapple Exfoliating Powder \\ Skincare Pineapple Exfoliating Powder I was so skeptical about this product. I mean it is a super fine powder that is suppose to exfoliate my skin. It is a super fine powder, but it still does the trick! While being extremely gentle to the skin the natural starch and silk powder exfoliates your skin removing dead skin build up and surface build up in pores. On top of that it will leave your skin glowing with the 3-0 ethyl ascorbic acid from all the fruit extracts in this. It has not only pineapple, but also kiwi and papaya! What's even better (that I have absolutely loved!) is that this is made without microbeads, nuts, or anything that will be too harsh and could potentially scratch the surface of your skin.  While being super gentle it will also leave your skin soothed and calm with the calamine powder and allantoin that is in it too.  Sorry I sound like an infomercial in these blogs. I just want all the info out there for you w...

Black Moon Cosmetics Lip Trio | Makeup

  Mini Moon Liquid to Matte Nude Trio (Deep/Dark) I was happy to make another purchase from the indie brand, Black Moon Cosmetics . I bought the Urban Myth palette last fall and fell in love with it! The brand has since caught my attention over and over with it's clever packaging, overall asethetic, and unique shades. And not just with eyeshadow but with lipsticks as well. Their shade range in lip products are so cool and the packaging is beautiful. I have to say I'm still usually on the fence about trying new liquid lipsticks. To be honest, I feel I have found formulas/brands that work for me and that I know wear amazingly and feel comfortable (not too drying) and I've stuck to those when buying new shades. So it put me off for awhile until I seen them advertise these adorable tin moon holders. At first I seen them and thought of decor, they were so cute! I recently redecorated my filming setup and was in the market for little trinkets that caught my attenion and this one...
