Ofra Cosmetics X Manny MUA Collab

Swatches & Review

OMG guys another brand collaboration with Manny MUA? Three liquid lipsticks with 

Ofra Cosmetics

Manny is doing so well & slaying the beauty industry at the moment!

Three beautiful colours created by Manny & they're definitely shades he loves.

I managed to get all three of his liquid lipsticks the day they were released, & of course those babies sold out so fast! But they're back now & they're permanent with Ofra Cosmetics so we can all get our hands on them! Make sure you use code "MannyMUA" for 30% off your order :)

This is my first time trying an Ofra product so I picked up "Miami Fever" also, which is one of the collab shades with YouTuber Kathleen Lights, a unique burnt orange I LOVE!

So to start, let's talk about the formula of these liquid lipsticks..I'm a fan haha

Different compared to other liquid lipsticks, they don't dry to a non-tranferable matte & stay feeling tacky on the lips for a while, even a few hours but eventually dry down completely matte, yet still transfer when kiss tested on the back of my hand.. It's like a whipped formula very similar to NYX Creamy Mattes or Tarte Lip Paints, and smell sweet too like vanilla or cake!

The liquid lipsticks are $19.90usd each or $49.70usd for the set

Once you use Mannys 30% off code, it ends up around $35usd a set or $14usd each - Bargain!!

♥ Swatches ♥

Aries - Stunning Pinky Peach Nude, perfect for fairer skintones like myself, this is my fave of the three. It looks pretty with a golden eye look or something using Mannys MUG palette!

Charmed - The trending Mauvey Pink Brown Nude, a deeper midtone nude that suits just about anybody! This colour is super popular right now & is a great everyday neutral shade.

Hypno - A delicious deep Red with Brown undertones. This shade gives a sexy vampire vibe & it looks amazing with a strong winged liner on a night out.

I really like the formula, smell & how they apply. They last for HOURS & don't run & smear outside the lips, but be careful when eating because like I said above these do not dry non-transferable & will smudge if not careful. The applicator is a long firm doe foot & makes it easy to apply evenly. The only thing I noticed was Aries doesn't look as nice after a while like Charmed & Hypno do, it can start to look dry and crepey...throw some lip balm on top & you should be good to go!

The formula..Hydra-Matte?

This product blew my socks off, it's amazing quality for a liquid lipstick!

It lasts all day, eating, drinking, talking, it's still there!

It's so comfortable to wear for a matte finish, it really does feel like nothing on your lips.

Not Drying what so ever, maybe even slightly tacky to prevent that.

And the colour? Ugh I LOVE! 

It goes with most makeup looks perfectly with the hints of brown making this a very wearable pink!
