I’ve got so many posts lined up. So many new to me brands and products that I can’t wait to blog about. For the first time in a long time I’m actually very excited. And speaking of a new to me brand, this is my first time experimenting with OFRA Cosmetics! I’ve actually been dying to try their liquid lipsticks. I’ve heard so many great things. The Vintage Vineyard Lip Set was a great place to start.

The Vintage Vineyard Lip Set contains 3 of OFRA’S Long Lasting Liquid Lipsticks in the shades Bordeaux which is a blackberry purple, Cape Town which is a light plum, and Tuscany which is a muted mauve-red. All 3 shades are matte. They have a light vanilla scent which I thought was nice. They applied beautifully and evenly. With the exception of Bordeaux. Because it was darker I found it was a little tricky to work with. It does eventually even out, but you really have to work at it. This was the only shade I didn’t get a photo of. That’s because I just didn’t like the way it looked on me. I’ll definitely keep working at it, but right now I just find it to be a little too vampy for my liking. Cape Town and Tuscany are total winners though. I have so many similar shades in my collection, but I’ll probably reach for these more. I found them to be very comfortable. You can see Cape Town and Tuscany in action below.

I also went ahead and did another look using my LuLu Face Company Custom Palette. Looking back on the review I wasn’t too happy with the look I created and felt I could do better. I guess the same could be said for most of my older looks. So expect to see a lot of do-overs this year. I’m much happier with this look though. I just really wanted to try and do that palette justice because I like it so much. Aside from the shadows and pressed cake eyeliner (which I applied on my lid this time) I’m also wearing the Mineral Blush in Fresh Rose on my cheeks and the Silky Pressed Mineral Shadow in Chablis as my highlight. I still say it makes for a gorgeous highlight!

I think both of these lipsticks compliment the palette beautifully. The moment I saw them I knew I had to pair them with this palette. Overall, I’d have to say that they are great lipsticks. They’re very comfortable and fairly long lasting. They have definitely put OFRA on my radar.
