OFRA Longlasting Liquid Lipstick: Review and swatches

I have heard so many good things about OFRA Longlasting Liquid Lipsticks so i decided to order it on ebay because here in Italy Ofra brand is not available in the stores. 
I decided to have at least one after i watched Kathleen Lights and Jamie Page's review and swatches...very useful.

Packaging: the tube is plastic, not very fancy but who cares! I'm in love with the performance so in this case i'm not so interested in the packaging.

Shade: I choose the color "Mocha" because i'm so in love with brown lipsticks. It's a brown with a pink undertone, let's say a warm nude perfect for everyday.

Application: the doe foot  applicator helps to be very precise. The lipstick has a moussey consistency that doesn't dry immediately so it gives you time to be precise in the application and to build up the color. It dries completely matte after 20 minutes and after that time it doesn't transfer at all.

Staying power: when it dries it lasts the whole day (without eating something very greasy). It's the most confortable liquid lipstick i own and sometimes i forgot i have it on. After 5 hours it starts to become a bit dry but it doesn't bother me at all.

Final thoughts: I'm so happy i bought one of these liquid lipstick. I'm pretty impressed by the performance. The range of color is huge so it's impossible not to fall in love with at least one. I'm so sad that Ofra is not available in Italy. I hope you are luckiest than me ;-)

My Foundation Stash: Shades Comparison

When i look for a review on a foundation online i'm always happy to find some pictures that show shades comparison because i think it's very useful to find your right match, especially when you have to buy it online and you can't test the foundation on your skin.

So i decided to make this post hoping that it will be useful for someone.

I put the Re(MArc)Able foundation in the center because it's a mid shade and i think it will be the perfect colour for my tanned skin (The Diorskin is just the swatch of a sample, waaaay too dark)

NARS Sheer Glow (Deauville Light 4): is the lightest foundation i own but since i bought in online i didn't have the chance to previously test it. I can make it work with some contouring, bronzer and blush. I love the dewy finish it gives. I think that the perfect shade for me is Fiji.

Bourjois Healthy Mix (52): I really adore the finish of this foudation, very glowy and natural. It's very similar to the effect of the Nars Sheer Glow but on me last four hours more. It's on the yellow side so it's perfect for my undertone, maybe it's just a bit too light.

MUFE Ultra Hd (y245): is the perfect match for my skin, especially in winter. You can read a complete review here.

Max Factor Facefinity (Sand): i'm in love! Since it's a primer, concealer and foundation in one it covers everything looking natural at the same time. I always struggle with the visibility of my pores but this one does a pretty good job, and lasts 10 hours!

L'oreal Infallible (22 Radiant Beige): It's my holy grail foundation! It's just perfection. It's the only foundation that makes my pores disappear completely. The shade is not too light and not too dark and has a yellow undertone. When i wear it it's like a have no imperfections and when i touch my face it feels so smooth and doesn't transfer at all; it resists to humidity and sweat. I prefer to use it in summer (even if it is a bit too light for a bronzed skin) but i wear it also in winter the days in which i know i will be out for the whole day and night. The staying power of this foundation is over 10 hours.

Urban Decay Naked Skin (4.00): i heard so many good things on this foundation, for this reason i decided to give it a shot. I'm not sure about it, sometimes i like it but i'm not sure. The shade is my summer shade. It is almost invisible on the skin but the staying power is not so good. It gives its best when i use a primer underneath.

 Marc Jacobs Re(MArc)Able foundation (32 Beige Light): I think i will use it more when i will be tanned because the shade a bit too dark now. You can read a complete review here.

Diorskin Forever (30): I have just a sample of this foundation. I can't even wear it because it's super dark on me but i swatched it just to give you an idea of the shade.

Hope this post was useful.

Have a nice day! :-*
