Oh My Ofra!

If you've ever been to a beauty school, you've probably heard of Ofra cosmetics. If you've ever been to a beauty show, you've probably heard of Ofra cosmetics. If you've ever used makeup at all, you probably used Ofra cosmetics.

Ofra cosmetics is a line that is dedicated to creating high quality cosmetic products for professionals.

They also make products for different companies, so chances are that you have had used Ofra products but did not even know it.

I had the amazing honor of meeting the owner Ofra. Her and Carine came to one of our campuses to do a demonstration and talk about the amazing products.

They are both charming and knowledgeable. It was a great pleasure of mine to meet them.

I've been lucky to work with Ofra products since I started working at my campus three years ago. I've loved them since. Ofra cosmetics is now coming out with so many new and exciting products.

I was very blessed to receive three of their products to review for you.

I have nothing negative to say.

They are amazing. If I love them, you will too.

So let's get started.

Our first product is RCK (Red Carpet Kolour) Body Glow.

Can you say red carpet ready?

Many celebrities like Jessica Simpson and Denise Richards have used this product.

It gives your skin a beautiful glow. Your skin look bright and blemish free. When you're done, it simply washes off.

Our second product and personally my favorite is... The Triple Black Eyeliner.

Ok, I have a testimonial for you guys and dolls.

I have teary eyes. Every eyeliner I've used runs... it cannot fight with my tears. There are only two eyeliners that have succeeded and THIS is one of them. By far, this one is my favorite because I can use it for both top and bottom eyeliner and it's so dark.

The third and final product is my favorite of the three the Bright Addiction Palette.

If you follow me on Facebook, Instagram, and/or Twitter, I'm sure you've seen me several photos of different eye looks I've done these past few weeks.

These looks have been created with this amazing palette. I have never used an eye shadow palette with such bright colors that actually stay true to color. What you see is truly what you get! The pigmentation in the eye shadows is also great.. I don't even use a primer.

In conclusion, I can tell you that I've fallen in love with Ofra Cosmetics. These three products are just the ones that I was able to try from home. When they came to give the demonstration at work, I was able to try all their products and I will say...I'm a believer.

Check out Ofra Cosmetics... you won't regret it.

Natasha Bettingfel

Looked stunning in this beautiful red dress. Her makeup was classic soft eyes and dark red lips

Carly Rae Jepsen

She looks stunning in lancome beautiful silver/bluish smokey eye and nude lips

Taylor Swift

JLo

I was so bussy looking at her dress I forgot to look at her makeup ! lol!!

But when I did, I was a little dissapointed. She didn't do much and her liner looks like its missing some! It looked as though she did her own makeup. And she wore a Nude Lip
