Catrice Viennart Limited Edition Collection

There’s only one blush to be found in this collection, and it’s called ‘Floral OrnArtment’. The packaging is pretty basic and typical Catrice with the clear packaging and sturdy compact. But the powder itself is sooooo adorable!! It has an “ornamental” pattern, and two different shades of pink. The pattern is so pretty, I just can’t get over it. The way the two colors are mixed, it reminds me of a corset somehow, and I’m totally in love with the floral-pattern. Which by the way, is still noticeable after a couple of times of using it. 

Floral OrnARTment is dark pink, almost red looking blush. It is described as “Fresh Apricot and Light Nude”, but to me, that didn’t really show up, it was more of a pink/reddish kind of shade on me. It’s not completely matte, yet the shimmer isn’t really noticeable on the cheeks, even in the pan you have to look really closely. I swirl my brush into the two different shades, and this gives me a pretty light red flush on the cheeks, with a little dewiness to it. The texture of this blush isn’t too powdery, it’s a very fine powder that’s very smooth to apply. It is highly pigmented, so start off with a little product and build it up if necessary. This beauty stayed on me the entire day, without even fading away!

This collection comes with 3 beautiful baked eyeshadows: a lavender, a gold and a mauve one. I went for the mauve one, but they all swatched wonderfully! I just couldn’t justify getting all 3 of them, so I had to make a choice. The one I got is called ‘Stunning Stucco’. Again, these eyeshadows come in a simple and clear packaging, which is typical Catrice. But they added a little something-something to the powder itself. It has this really cool pattern, that reminds me a lot of snake-skin, yet it’s described as “lace embossment”. The only thing that sucks about this, is that it goes away after a using it a couple of times. 

Stunning Stucco is a shimmering light mauve/grey shade. It almost has a metallic finish, and it’s perfect for the holidays, but it’s also appropriate for everyday wear. The texture is very soft and smooth, which is almost always the case with Catrice eyeshadows. Stunning Stucco is super pigmented and applies easily onto the lids. I chose to apply this one all over my lid, but this color is so versatile, you could do so much with it. It didn’t crease and stayed in place nicely throughout the day.
