Catrice Soleil D'été LE Metalip Colour and a Metal Eyelight

I'm a bit late with this review, I already saw Catrice Soleil D'été LE products in stores like a week ago, but they should be available till mid of September. This collection is all about metallic looks and bronzing makeup. I got two products to test out: Metalip Colour and a Metal Eyelight. I'm actually eyeing that gorgeous bronzer, as well as the serum bronzer because I heard bronzers from Catrice's LEs are quite nice.

Metallic makeup has been a new trend for a while, so it's no surprise Catrice came out with a metallic themed limited edition. Metalip Colour comes in a classic and typical Catrice packaging, but this one is metallic gold. The texture feels more like a lip balm than a lipstick, it's creamy, but not too creamy. I really like the scent, it smells fruity and sweet. My lipstick didn't come with a sticker that would have a shade number, so I'm not sure which shade I have because they are all so similar, but I looked in the promo photos and I'm pretty sure it's C02 Meet MEtal since it looks more pink.

I'm not a fan of lipglosses or anything shimmery on my lips, but this lipstick actually looks good. At first, it gives the lips a rose metallic shine and it lasts for about an hour or so. But then the layer fades and there is mostly the shimmer left, which lasts quite a while on the lips. It looks perfect for the summer time, it catches the sun light and I like it. Like I said, it feels like a lip balm, so it doesn't dry out the lips. It looks like a tinted lip balm, you can see that on the swatches below. The swatches are not the best, I couldn't capture the shade well, it looks a bit more reddish, but in real life, it's more like a metal rose shade.

Metal Eyelight comes in a pot, which is very well made, it won't break easily if you drop it. It has a black plastic lid. First things that I saw it's how gorgeous the product looks in the pot, it's such a nice metallic gold, perfect for the summer time. The shade is called C01 Sun Kissed Miss.

This has such a fun consistency, kind of spongey or moussey and soft to the touch, I'm not sure how to describe it well. You can use it as an eyeshadow or an eyelinerI mostly tested it as an eyeliner and it holds well. I don't think I have even worn any different coloured eyeliner than black or blue before, but I adore this one. I do a thin line and it's not too much, it just adds a bit of definition to the eyes. I did use it as an eyeshadow, but it's a bit too much for me.

We had a heatwave here and it didn't smudge, not even once and it lasted the whole day on my eyes. To apply it as an eyeliner you will need a very precise eyeliner brush, mine wasn't as precise, so I didn't draw a perfect line, but it still looked good. But if you prefer going for a straight and neat line, you will need a precise brush.

I like both of the product, but I think I prefer the Metal Eyelight. I love how it looks on the eyes as an eyeliner. And one big plus is, that it stays on for the whole day, even on the hottest days.

Thank you for reading!
