In today's world, where the entire fashion and beauty industry works for the benefit of women, in the conditions of the huge choice that we have ever had, the German manufacturer of decorative cosmetics Cosnova GmbH in 2004 founded the Catrice brand. The history of the brand has not so many years, but it has already managed to win the hearts of women from all over the world with a sincere concern for their interests, manifested in excellent product quality and affordable prices for all.

The company produces a full range of decorative cosmetics - from mascara to nail polish, but in this article we decided to tell you about lipstick catrice. Today we will get acquainted with its features and composition, talk about how to choose your own shade and also consider all the brand lines in more detail. And together we will try to figure out whether success is honestly deserved Catrice or it is just the result of successful marketing.

First of all, it is worth noting the solid German quality of Catrice cosmetics and affordable prices, as well as a rich palette of shades. Among the variety of tones, you can definitely choose your own color that suits you personally, starting with gentle, romantic, elegant pastels and ending with exotic, juicy, bright and deep tones.

The company updates its assortment every season - once every 3 months, immensely delighting fans with new products and allowing them to always be in trend. From time to time, Catrice collaborates with both well-known and not so famous designers, and then, as a result of joint creative efforts, a limited collection is born.

The brand provides a wide range of lip care: several types of lipsticks (matting; liquid; in the form of a felt-tip pen), gloss (shine-cushion; semi-matte gloss; gradually developing pigment closest to natural), as well as a novelty in the world of cosmetics - trendy , two-color stick " Ombre Two Tone Lipstick.

The brand presents several lines of beauty and care products for the delicate skin of the lips. Here are some of them with a brief description:

"Ombre Two Tone" - innovative lipstick. Two contrasting rich shades - light and dark - create a trendy gradient effect. Presented in six shades.

"Ultimate Stay Lipstick" - semi-matte and long-lasting lipstick. This line has eight tones from elegant nude to juicy crimson.

Luminous Lips consists of 6 colors. The uniqueness of this line is that one of the components in the composition is hyaluronic acid, which deeply moisturizes and visually increases the volume of the lips.

"Ultimate Color Lipstick" is a deeply pigmented lipstick with a light, sweet and, according to most users, absolutely non-irritating scent. Consists of 14 shades.

Velvet Matt Lip Cream - liquid lipstick Despite the "matte" name, the shine is still present. On the official website of the manufacturer is presented in 9 tones.

"Lip Glow" - moisturizing balm.The pigment is absorbed into the lips, the color appears in a few seconds and lasts for 8-10 hours.

"Dresser Shine Stylo". The light creamy texture of the product covers the lips with a fashionable satin sheen. The choice ranges from soft pink to bright red.

Supreme Fusion Lipcolour Care.The creamy texture provides a silky, radiant sheen. The color of the lipstick from a dark tone in the center gradually turns to a lighter one at the edges and creates a radiant effect.

When choosing, it is recommended to be guided by your color type. Brunettes will suit bright, juicy, warm colors - coral, ruby, orange, terracotta, scarlet, etc. Girls with fair skin and blond hair should prefer pastel, delicate tones: pink, lilac, semi-transparent plum, beige, etc.

One of the choices is seasonality - in spring and summer we want cheerful bright colors, while in autumn and winter strict restrained tones are more appropriate.

Catrice cares about its consumers and uses ingredients that are absolutely safe for health and whenever possible natural. The composition includes moisturizing ingredients and vitamins that ensure the health and beauty of your lips. It is worth noting that the composition of decorative cosmetics cannot be completely natural, since in this case you will have to sacrifice the durability and intensity of the color. Let's try to decipher the composition of "Ultimate Color Lipstick" for example:

• Pentaerythrity Tetraisostearate safe when used as directed (for external use), but individual intolerance is possible;
• Polybutene. The CRI panel of experts, after a thorough study of the substance, based on scientific findings, confirmed the safety of using this component in cosmetics;
• Octyldodecanol can cause skin irritation only in case of individual intolerance;
• Cera Microcristallina (Microcrystalline Wax) - like the previous component, in case of individual intolerance it can cause an allergy;
• Polyglyceryl-3 Diisostearate - emulsifier of plant origin, which forms and holds a thin creamy emulsion;
• Paraffin - a product of oil refining (it does not sound very pleasant, but a substance that is really useful in cosmetics, which was used by our grandmothers);
• Bis-Diglyceryl Polyacyladipate-2 - synthetic substitute for lanolin;
• Candelilla (Euphorbia Cerifera) Wax - a natural product of plant origin;
• Ozokerite - another absolutely safe product of oil refining;
• Octyldodecyl Stearoyl Stearate safe, has protective properties;
• Behenoxy Dimethicone - silicone polymer, safe for health, most importantly, do not forget to wash off on time;
• HDI/Trimethylol Hexyllactone Crosspolymer - mineral filler, gives smoothness to the final product;
• Tocopheryl Acetate - everyone's favorite vitamin E, which slows down the aging process;
• Silica - silicon. Safe natural ingredient;
• Talc - harmless mineral;
• Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride - natural skin softener and moisturizer;
• Diethylhexyl Syringylidenemalonate - antioxidant, protects against ultraviolet rays and the harmful effects of the environment;
• Aroma (flavor) - fragrance;
• benzyl alcohol- a rather aggressive substance that causes skin allergies, in severe cases can cause paralysis of the upper respiratory tract;
• CI 15850 (Red7 Lake), CI 19140 (Yellow5 Lake), CI 42090 (Blue1 Lake), CI 77491 (Iron Oxides), CI 77891 (Titanium Dioxide) - chemical dyes.

As you can see, the company really tries to stick to its statements, of all the components, only one is alarming. Let's hope that its amount in the composition of the product will not cause any harm to our health.
