Catrice Ultimate Stay Lipstick | Review, Swatches + Try-on

catrice ultimate lipstick review

The Catrice Ultimate Stay lipsticks joined the permanent range last autumn. They have many shades to choose from, and I am going to review two of them. I will show you lip and hand swatches as well.

As Catrice claims:

"Strong and Sophisticated. Intensive colours and a trendy satin-matt finish. The highly pigmented, longlasting texture has a convincing high coverage without drying out the sensitive skin on your lips. A lovely companion for every day. Now available in a total of twelve colours including passionate red and pink shades, purple and nudes."

I pretty much agree with all of the claims above.

They indeed have a satin-like finish, they are not even close to being cement-like matt. You will see the slight sheen below, when I show them on my lips. They have a thin consistency and high pigmentation, even though you will need to reapply them after eating. Without eating, they last a good couple of hours. They have a slight vanilla scent, it is basically the exact same scent as the smell of the MAC lippies.

These lipsticks come in a heavy black (matt metal / chalkboard-like) tube that is cold to the touch. It's really weird, I don't really like the feel of it in my hands. The stickers on the bottom match the colour of the lipstick.

Once you apply them, you don't even feel them on the lips, which is a good thing for most people. I tend to prefer lipsticks with a waxier / creamier consistency. It is really just personal preference, it doesn't mean that the lipsticks are bad. If you like thin lipsticks, these are for you.

Both shades are beautiful, one is a mauve nude and the other one is a warm plum shade. The dark one was my go-to lipstick last fall/winter. The nude lippie goes with anything and looks good on most (if not all) skintones.

All in all, these Ultimate Stay lipsticks are just fine, but not my favourite. They are very pigmented and not drying. The colour selection is amazing, everyone will find a shade that suits them. They live up to their own claims, I just happen to prefer creamier lipsticks. 

My bigges issue is the feel of the packaging, it gives me chills once I touch it. It's like when someone is scratching a blackboard with nails; touching the lipstick tube gives me that exact bad feeling. As I said, it's personal preference, I am sure some of you will like the heavy, chalkboard-like tubes. 

Have you tried these lippies? Did you like them?

I bought the dark one with my own money. The nude one was part of a gift bag at a blogger event.
