With all my recent excitement over Stila's return to Ireland and TK Maxx bargains I completely forgot that I had picked up some goodies from Catrice. Catrice is a great German make up brand that is brilliant value. It can usually be found in Dunnes Stores and Penneys and yes it is most definitely Penneys prices. I picked up a cream cheek tint in Tigerlilly for €3.50. This is reminiscent (ie a total copy) of a Nars Multiple. The product is slightly chunkier and not as smooth as a Nars Multiple but you're not paying Nars prices (which for us in the Eurozone are mad money)
Sure how could I say no to a hot pink for €4.50? That's right, I couldn't, so I got the Ultimate Colour lipstick in 110 Pink Me Up. I love Catrice lipsticks. They have a slight scent which reminds me of higher end brands but I have noticed that the lipstick's shape is really weird and pointy. Has anybody else noticed this?
Finally a Lip Designer Lip liner in Soft Fuchsia that was €2.50. There has been great talk about these on YouTube. They have a nifty lip brush on the other end.
Has anybody tried Catrice? What do you think?

I have the same lipstick i payed 4.99 for it, i was robbed!!! ha ha anyways i love the shape and smell of it :) didnt like the multiple tho it felt really waxy :( i wanted to love it so much !! x x x
ReplyDeleteKeep meaning to do a post on Catrice! I tried that stick thing and wasn't too pushed, have to agree with Makeup Hair and glitz, was v waxy & not enough colour for moi, love that lippie though, its gowjus
ReplyDeleteI have that lipliner and it's brilliant, goes really well with Girl About Town xx
ReplyDeleteRight so I'll be picking up that liner and lippie next time I'm at a Catrice stand, they're both lovely.
ReplyDeleteI love the pink blush stick (Bird of Paradise) but can't seem to work with Tigerlily without it looking too orange which is a shame.
really like that lipstick and pencil. I have a couple of things from Catrice. Nail polishes, lip stick in Dark Rosewood,Concealer, eyeshadow base( like this better than UD),lip pencil (seems to have gone on the missing list) and I have being using their Skin Finish compact powder and its really nice. Stop me looking like Wednesday Adams!! I went and bought another one incase I run out. Didn't realise I had that much Catrice but cant say there is anything I don't like.
ReplyDeleteEyeshadow base hmmm.... Might have to try that
