OFRA Long Lasting Liquid Lipsticks | 13 Shades


OFRA Long Lasting Liquid Lipsticks (0.28 oz.) individually retail for $19.90 USD and are available in an outstanding 42 shades. They are said to be "a creamy, moisturizing, long lasting matte lipstick with full lip color that does not feather."


"OFRA Long Lasting Liquid Lipstick is a one step full lip color that does not feather. These vibrant colors will give you a vivacious new look.They are creamy and soft in texture, moisturizing the lips and creating a long lasting lipstick effect. No need to use lipliner, this liquid lipstick gives a beautiful edge to your lip look!

Our formula is a matte color formula but if you want to add some shine to your liquid lipstick try our revolutionary Lipgloss Stick. All shades contain antioxidants and Vitamin E while the formula provides a lightweight layer of lasting color to make you look stunning all day. Color will last in a perfect condition up to five hours without eating or drinking. For best results do not eat or drink for 15 minutes after applying. Please note that this is not a lip stain and does not dry completely but remains on your lips for hours!"
The packaging is a round, gloss style tube with a standard doe-foot applicator. They have a subtle creme brulee scent that can be noticed on initial application but never tasted. The formula itself is a whipped mousse-like consistency that feels light-weight and comfortable on the lips. I found it's best to shake these to ensure the formula is well mixed and pigmented, otherwise they can apply a little more sheer and "watered" down, so-to-speak.

The Long Lasting Liquid Lipsticks are matte and do dry down to a degree, but remain slightly transferable unlike your more typical matte liquid lipsticks—they never cling or feel drying. It is a more forgiving formula for drier lips, the color doesn't accentuate dry areas or imperfections. The product can lightly transfer throughout wear, especially once it's first applied since they don't completely set, but they are longer lasting as they typically wear between 6 - 10 hours.





Atlantic City is a brightened, medium cherry red with warm undertones and a mostly matte finish. This shade had excellent opaque, even pigmentation that applied smoothly and never felt drying. For being a bolder shade I didn't experience any feathering or bleeding during wear and it was easy to create clean, crisp edges. Atlantic City lasted +8.5 hours before fading and left behind a stain. (5/5)
* ColourPop London Fog was cooler, more pink. Kat Von D Outlaw was warmer, more orange toned. Sephora Collection Always Red was warmer, more orange toned. Stila Fiery was slightly darker, more deepened.


The Bronx is a dark black with neutral-to-cool undertones and a mostly matte finish. This was the most opaque black lipstick I've tried yet—it had rich color payoff and had smooth, even coverage during application. It could appear lighter around the edges, but a thin second layer or minor touch ups easily fixed any sheer areas. The Bronx wore well for +8 hours and never felt drying. (5/5)
* MAC Hautecore (LE) was warmer, less opaque. Kat Von D Witches was cooler, more matte. Kat Von D NaYeon was less opaque, metallic. Kat Von D Slayer was warmer, less opaque.


Dubai is a light-medium, nude beige with neutral undertones and a mostly matte finish. It applied smoothly, evenly and had great, opaque pigmentation. I noticed it had very minor issues with falling into lip lines during wear—it never caused the color to look streaky or uneven and never enhanced imperfections. Dubai wore well for +7.5 hours before fading and never felt drying. (5/5)
* ColourPop Magic Wand was darker, warmer, more peach. Kat Von D Noble was lighter, warmer, more peach. NYX Flawless was warmer, more beige. Too Faced Melted Sugar was lighter, warmer, more pink.


Havana Nights is a medium-dark, ruby red with warm undertones and a mostly matte finish. This shade applied very smoothly, evenly and had great color payoff. It had a slightly translucency which made it make ever-so-slightly darker in areas, but it wasn't noticeable unless you were really observing the color or looking for it. Havana Nights lasted +8.5 hours and left behind a stain.(5/5)
* ColourPop Avenue was lighter, brighter, warmer. Kat Von D Nosferatu was brighter, warmer. MAC Studded Kiss was lighter, slightly more berry toned.


Honolulu is a medium-dark, reddish brown with neutral-to-cool undertones and a slightly metallic finish. This was an interesting shade to work with—it had slightly more slip due to the metallic finish, but the consistency overall felt somewhat thicker and drier than other shades. Regardless, it still applied smoothly, had even coverage and never felt drying on lips. Honolulu wore well for +8 hours and left behind a stain. (4/5)
* ColourPop Prim was brighter, warmer, more red. Kat Von D Damned was darker, more blackened, red. MAC Antique Velvet was similar, a touch warmer, less metallic. Too Faced Melted Chocolate Cherries was lighter, warmer, more red.


Mina is a medium-dark, berry red with cool undertones and a mostly matte finish. Once again, this shade had a slight translucency to it, but only if you were really studying the lips and looking for it. It had opaque color coverage otherwise and applied smoothly. I had no problems with feathering, bleeding or feeling drying over time. Mina lasted +8 hours and left behind a stain. (5/5)
* Kat Von D Exorcism was darker, more plum. MAC Dark Side was lighter, cooler. Sephora Collection Blackberry Sorbet was lighter, warmer, more magenta.


Mocha is a medium-dark terracotta nude with warm undertones and a mostly matte finish. This shade applied very evenly, smoothly and created clean, crisp edges easily. It had rich, opaque pigmentation and was comfortable throughout wear—this was one of the best performing shades of the bunch. Mocha wore well for +8.5 hours and never felt drying. (5/5)
* ColourPop Frick 'N Frack was similar. Kat Von D Lolita was lighter, muted, more mauve. MAC Whirl was lighter, warmer, more brown. Nudestix Purity was lighter, cooler, more rose.


New Orleans is a medium-dark, purple magenta with cool undertones and a satin-matte finish. I found the formula to be thinner, which caused it to apply somewhat unevenly and look darker in areas—shaking the tube thoroughly, applying with a lip brush and pairing it over a lip pencil will help with a more even coverage. Regardless, it did have nice pigmentation and it was comfortable during wear. New Orleans lasted +7.5 hours before fading. (4/5)
* ColourPop Plastics (LE) was lighter, warmer, more fuchsia. ColourPop Panda was warmer, more pink. MAC Instigator was warmer, more muted, burgundy.


Purple Rain is a medium-dark purple with cool undertones and a metallic finish. This particular shade, due to the metallic finish, had much more slip on the lips than the others which caused it to skip and apply more sheer in some areas—it's certainly a color that would perform best being paired over an opaque lipstick or lip pencil. The metallic finish was very noticeable, however. Purple Rain lasted +6.5 hours before fading. (3/5)
* MAC She Rebel (LE) was less opaque, glossy. Sephora Collection She's Got The Power (LE) was darker, more purple, less metallic. Kat Von D Poe was darker, more blue, less metallic. Sephora Collection Polished Purple was darker, warmer, more purple.


Saint Ana is a medium-dark, muted strawberry red with warm undertones and a mostly matte finish. This shade applied smoothly, evenly and had great, opaque color payoff. It created clean edges easily and didn't feather or feeling drying over time. Saint Ana wore well for +8.5 hours and left behind a faint stain. (5/5)
* ColourPop Scrooge (LE) was cooler, more pink. MAC D For Danger was brighter, cooler, more red. Marc Jacobs Je T'aime was brighter, warmer, more coral. Tarte Bikini was brighter, more pink.


Sao Paulo is a light-medium, peach beige with warm undertones and a mostly matte finish. Despite being a lighter nature I had very minor issues with the color gravitating towards lip lines during wear. It had nice, opaque pigmentation that applied evenly and had great coverage. Sao Paulo lasted +7.5 hours before fading. (5/5)
* ColourPop Choker (LE) was similar. ColourPop Magic Wand was darker, warmer. Nudestix Whisper was similar, less beige. Stila Caramello was muted, more grey.


Staten Island is a light-medium taupe with hints of grey, cool undertones and a mostly matte finish. This is certainly a more unique nude shade since it has those stronger grey undertones. The color applied very smoothly, evenly and had great color coverage that didn't fall into lip lines during wear. Staten Island wore well for +8 hours and never felt drying. (5/5)
* ColourPop Kapow was darker, warmer, more brown toned. ColourPop Trap was warmer, more mauve, matte. Kat Von D Bow N Arrow was warmer, much more brown. MAC Stone was darker, warmer, more brown.


St Tropez is a light-medium, bubblegum pink with cool undertones and a mostly matte finish. This shade applied evenly, had smooth coverage and excellent, opaque pigmentation. Once again, it didn't fall into lip lines, bleed or feather and it never felt drying. St Tropez wore well for +8 hours before fading. (5/5)
* MAC Goodbye Kiss (LE) was darker, more purple toned. Clinique Fab Pop was similar, lighter. Kat Von D Lovesick was similar, more matte.


Overall, these are great liquid lipsticks. The formula is non-drying, comfortable, long lasting and they have exceptional pigmentation—they are quite similar to the ColourPop Ultra Satin Lip, but dry down to a more matte finish in my experience. These lipsticks also contain more product (0.28 oz.) than most brands and come in a wide variety of neutral to bold and even unique, out of the box shades. I've become a huge fan of these more satin-matte type liquid formulas, so of course with that said, I do highly recommend checking the Long Lasting Liquid Lipsticks out!
