Hello fellow Makeup and Beauty Junkie, we're here again with yet another review on the latest Makeup Collaboration of Ofra Cosmetics and the youtube Guru Nikkie Tutorials. This was revealed by Nikkie on her own Channel last March 15, 2017 you can check her video HERE , this collection was launched on March 29,2017.
The collection consist of 3 Liquid lipsticks 2 of which are metallic the shades Spell a bright orange, Coven a dark brownish color ,the shade nude potion a matte light pinkie nude color, and a highlighter wheel in the shade Everglow that has three shades a white color with gold reflects, a champagne color and an orange copper color.
The Box is beautiful, it's made of hard cardboard so it's sturdy. The top cover has a glitter and the bottom part is very smooth with a metallic band separating the two parts. On the other hand the packaging of the actual products feels really cheap for it's price especially the highlighter's case it's almost the same as those on the drugstore ones very thin plastic with clear covering. This Collection retails for a whooping 3,300.00 php and you can purchase it in Glamourboxph .
Now for the fun part, here are the swatches of all the shades on this collection.
first is the Everglow Highligter with there shades
This Wheel highlighter has 3 shades.
This highlighter is very very very pigmented, if you're not into that BLINDING highlights then this one is not for you because this will give you that "What's on your face?" statement everytime you wear this. Just like any other Ofra powder products this has an amazing formulation, the texture is creamy and very easy to blend you just need to dip your brush very lightly and it will give you PIGMENT!! However this is a little bit chunky and has a lot of fall outs but i personally don't mind it.
You can also buy this individually and it retails for 1,390.00 php at the Glamourbox ph website.
Next are the three Long Lasting Lipsticks in the shades Coven, Spell and Nude Potion.
Top to bottom: Coven, Spell and Nude Potion
The Shade Coven is a Dark brownish Metallic liquid lipstick, it's very creamy it has that vanilla scent w/c i believe all Ofra lipsticks has. This was the most pigmented among the three.
The Shade Spell this is a Neon Orange metallic Liquid lipstick, very creamy also has that vanilla scent but this one applies patchy, so in order for you to have that flawless solid color you need to apply a few layers.
The shade Nude Potion this is the only matte on the collection, this is creamy upon application but it dries down into a super matte finish and like the shade spell this is a bit patchy as well, but since it dries into a matte finish i find it very hard to layer it because it does not build up like the way the Shade spell does, so i'm not fan of this one. The three liquid lipsticks can also be bought individually at the Glamourbox Ph website or just click these shade names for the product link
Final Thought, personally i only got this collection after winning it on GlamourBox Ph giveaway last May 9,2017 which i'm very thankful of, however for the price of 3,300.00 php i don't think i would ever purchased this collection, don't get me wrong i love Ofra for me they have an amazing formulation on all their products specially the lipsticks i love how it's very comfortable on the lips and the scent is amazing, but for this collection i don't find myself attracted to any of the shades because the colors are too bold for my preference, i don't think i could wear these shades everyday without getting noticed specially the shades Coven and Spell these shades are just too loud for me.
top to bottom: three shades of Everglow highlighter , Coven, Spell and Nude potion
The Nude spell is too light for my skintone but i could get away with it by using a darker lipliner and applying the lipstick on the center to create a gradiant lips. I usually use the Shades Coven and spell as a lip topper on my other lipsticks. For the Everglow Highlighter i used the lightest shade as a highlight topper on top of my other highlights to give more glow on the highest parts of my face, for the medium and the dark shades i use it mainly as an eyeshadow w/c is perfect for the inner corner and the brow bone.
Here are some of the looks that i created using this collection.
Shade Coven
shade Spell
shade Love Potion Without lip liner
That's it for my review and personal thoughts on the Ofra x Nikkie Tutorial Collab, hope this blog helps you in case you are planning to buy this collection or any of the products on this collection.
Till next time loves... thanks for dropping by...
