Recently I reviewed the new Stay 8h Matte liquid lipstick from Essence and since these Catrice ones are also new, I will be comparing both formulas within this review. Catrice Matt Pro Ink Liquid Lipsticks come in a much nicer packaging than the ones from Essence. They have clear packaging with a rosegold cap and they look pretty and elegant. You get 5ml of product for around 5€The wand is also better than by the Essence ones, it's a smaller double-sided applicator.

The formula is a bit creamier than by Essence and more opaque. It dries down matte in a few minutes but it doesn't dry completely. It's not completely transfer-proof. It's not as dry as the Essence once but it's still on a drier side and you can definitely feel it on the lips. I didn't notice that it would emphasize dry patches and lines as much. It has an average staying power, it survives a quick meal but not a big one. It has a sweet, yet chemical scent.

There are 10 shades available, so twice as much as by Essence. I got the shades 060 I Choose Passion and 100 Courage Code. The first one is darker rosy mauve and the second one is a darker almost burgundy red.

In conclusion, I love the packaging and although these are pretty dry for my lips, I still really like them on days when my lips are in better shape, especially the mauve shade. I would definitely recommend them over the Essence Stay 8h Matte liquid lipsticks.

Thank you for reading!

  1. Hi Lana! I was very impressed or how much the color 060 of Catrice is similar to the 05 of Essence. Catrice's packaging is actually much more beautiful! Anyway, they are excellent brands! I love both.
