Catrice Kaviar Gauche LE (Palette and Brush Set)

Catrice Kaviar Gauche LE (Palette and Brush Set)

This new Kaviar Gauche limited edition from Catrice is, in my opinion, the prettiest so far. I love the design and colours of the collection. The brushes were high on my wishlist and Slovenian Catrice team kindly offered to send them to me so I can test them out. I'm on a tight budget right now, but I still wanted to buy something, so I needed to decide between the palette and the highlighter, I went for the palette. The choice was actually easy since the highlighter was already sold out, but I'm not regretting getting the palette because I love it.


Eye Shadow Palette C01 Sans Souci

Catrice Kaviar Gauche LE (Palette and Brush Set)

The palette is called C01 Sans Souci and it comes in a gorgeous packaging, it is gold with a pale pink faux leather with a floral pattern on the top. Maybe I'm wrong, but I feel that the leather will get dirty quickly because it's so light. In it, you get 8,16g of product and you can buy it for 6,29€. The design of the palette really reminds me of some older Bobbi Brown ones, especially because of its gold details.

The eyeshadows have the same floral pattern that's on top of the palette and it looks beautiful. In the palette, you get four neutral eyeshadowsFirst three shades are lightly shimmery, the last one is matte. The first shade is a light rose golden pink, the second is a light golden brown, third is a cooler brown and the last brown is on the warmer side

The eyeshadows are not very pigmented. When I swatch them they look okay on my fingers, but when I put them on my skin they almost don't show up. They do perform better with a brush, I have used them with the Eye Lid Brush from this same collection and it works great. The eyeshadows do dust a bit. I was surprised at how well they blend, I can say they blend like a dream. I have used them with the Avon's primer and they lasted the whole day, they didn't crease at all

I almost didn't want to take my makeup off at the end of the day, because it still looked so good. I'm so impressed with this palette, the pigmentation is weird, the eyeshadows don't swatch well, but they look good if I use them with a brush. Also, I love that they are really longlasting and that they don't crease. I'm not sorry I chose this one over the highlighter.

Brush Set

Catrice Kaviar Gauche LE (Palette and Brush Set)

The brush set comes with the brush bag and three brushes, the powder brush, the blush & contour brush and the eyelid brush. The brush bag is made out of light pink faux leather and again, it will probably get dirty quickly. It is my first brush bag and it will be perfect for travelling. If you travel with a lot of brushes this won't be enough, there are only five spaces and you can't fit some bigger brushes in there, but it is perfect for the brushes from this collection. The bag costs 6,29€.

The brushes from this Kaviar Gauche collection are stunning. There are five brushes in the whole collection, an eye blender brush, an eyelid brush, a highlighter brush and a blush & contour brush, these four are sold separately, but the powder brush is only available in the set

The brushes have the same faux leather that the palette and the brush bag have. On the handle and on the top of the brushes are gold detailsThe bristles are very soft and quite dense with all the brushes I got. The bristles don't fall out and are in a nice shape (the contour one looks like some bristles are sticking out, it's because I stupidly pushed it into the box that the brushes came in).

Blush & Contour Brush
I use this brush for everything because it's the perfect shape. I use it for applying the blush, highlighter and for contouring. Lately, I have been using fluffier brushes for contouring so I thought this one won't be the best, but it's actually very soft and it blends the product well. I mainly use it to apply the blush, I like that it doesn't pick up too much product, so the blush still looks natural and you can't really apply too much, plus it blends it well. It costs 5,59€.

Eye Lid Brush
This one I use to apply the eyeshadow on my eyelids. It's soft and very dense. It picks the shades nicely and applies the product well. I use a bit bigger brush with longer bristles for applying the eyeshadows, but I think I like this one better because it picks up more product. It says you can also use it for defining your lower lash line, I normally use an angled eyeliner brush for that and this brush works too, but it's not as precise. It costs 4,29€.

Powder Brush
Again, good for everything. I use it to apply the powder (maybe I would prefer for it to be a bit bigger and fluffier for that), for contouring, it's even good for applying the blush. It's soft and quite dense. Like I said, this brush is only available as part of the brush set.

Catrice Kaviar Gauche LE (Palette and Brush Set)

I absolutely love this collection, one of the rare Catrice limited editions, where I wanted to buy all the products. The brushes are my favourite, I don't own many brushes, so these will be a nice and luxurious looking addition to my brush collection. The palette is gorgeous and the lasting power is amazing. I want to go and buy the highlighter too because I love how big it is and the effect it gives. But I have enough of highlighters, so I don't really need another massive one. All of the products from this collection are so luxurious looking, that I feel every single one of them would be perfect for a Christmas gift, especially the brush set.

Thank you for reading!

    1. Ravno na črni petek sem videla to kolekcijo že povsod, razen v DMih, oni so vedno malo zadaj s temi kolekcijami, tako da boš osvetljevalec še našla :D

    1. Bi tudi jaz najverjetneje vzela osvetljevalec, ampak sem nujno potrebovala nekaj čopičev :D

  5. Dizajn kolekcije je res čudovit. <3 So še mene čopiči zamikali ravno zaradi dizajna. Imaš prav, ta set čopičev bi bil super darilo. Jaz sem si privoščila osvetljevalec, ki je res čudovit. Tako fine bleščice. Mene velikost moti, ker ga je nemogoče nosit s sabo.

    1. Sem tudi jaz kasneje razmišljala, da bi mi šel resno na živce, ker je prevelik za moje makeup organizatorje, tako da me je to najbolj prepričalo, da ga nisem kupila haha :D
