Catrice Lip Dresser Shine Stylo Review & Swatches

Catrice Lip Dresser Shine Stylo ($7.99) is a new, must have shiny, lightweight lipstick that launched in six shade selections for Fall 2017. I do so love a great budget friendly lip product and Catrice is delighting us with quite a few this season.

Let’s check out the Lip Dresser Shine Stylo below.

Catrice Lip Dresser Shine Stylo is the perfect pick up if you’re tired of matte long-wearing lipsticks. This is a pigment rich lipstick with a high shine finish and a lightweight formula that veers well away from all the long-wearing, drier mattes we’ve seen the over the past year.

This little guy comes housed in a slimline click barrel that holds 0.04 oz of product. Yeah, it’s pretty small but good news Catrice is always on sale for Buy 1, Get 1 50% off at Ulta (it’s on sale right now!) so you never have to pay the full eight bucks for one. Did you catch that click pen comment about the packaging? Yup, this is a click pen! What?!?! A solid lipstick in a click pen!? What?! How? Why?! I’ve run into plenty of click pens be they lipglosses or creamy lipsticks or even concealer but a solid lipstick in this packaging? Never! I was somewhat puzzled by this style packaging in all honesty, but slowly, it grew on me.

How’s it work? Just click it one or two times and a small silver of the lipstick will be revealed for application. At first I was concerned as there’s technically not way to swivel it down once you click it up but no worries a simple click or two will deliver just the right amount of lipstick and any left over won’t get squashed once the cap was replaced. That was my main concern, I thought for sure it would get all squashed once I replaced the lid but nope, it was fine and ready for next use when I uncapped it. I actually like this packaging even if I was unsure of it at first. It’s quite slick and pretty cool I can click up the amount I need.

The packaging isn’t the only cool thing though, the formula is a gem as well. This is a super lightweight, thin textured lipstick that has the shiny look of a gloss and the color pay off of a lipstick. It glides on lips evenly and smoothly with a beautiful slick texture that feels lightly hydrating. A single stroke will leave behind opaque color and a glossy look with a wear time of around four hours with no migration of feathering during that wear and a super comfortable, weightless texture that doesn’t even feel like you’re wearing anything at all on your lips!

Love, love, love this formula and will be happily purchasing more.
