Recently, I went back to Lithuania during the half term and I wouldn't be Gabija if I didn't pick up some new makeup bits! Now... I wasn't really somebody who was too fussed about lipliner (who has the time in the morning?!)- that is, until I saw the difference that it can make! Lipliner isn't really something I want to spend an awful lot on, but do these Catrice Cosmetics Lip Pencils make the cut? All will be revealed!

150, Vintage Rose
100, Upper Brown Side
020, Hey Macadamia Ahey!
They all have a matte finish, so will look perfect with any lipstick on top!

First of all, I fell in love with their shade range! They have such a large variety of shades that are universally flattering for all skin tones.
Once I applied the liners to my lips, they were just as good as the shade range! As soon as I applied them, I noticed how easy to apply they were; I often find that lip liners can be very drying and tug on your lips as you apply them, but these weren't at all like that! Formula wise, they're also amazing! They're not too dry, but not too creamy either and don't feather or dry your lips out. Also, they feel comfortable on the lips and you can't even feel the product is there, unlike some lipliners! Finally, Catrice have to get brownie points for pigmentation- all you have to do is look above to see how pigmented and even the shades are!
However, they do make a pretty big claim that they are 'waterproof' and I just can't agree! In terms of staying power, they will last you a good few hours- that is... until you've had a meal! Other than that, I really can't fault these lipliners- apart from the fact that you can't find them in the UK!
Overall, I'm a massive fan of these lipliners and will definitely pick more up when I have the chance! If you can get them where you live, give these a try and you won't regret it!
