Catkin Moist Lipstick Hydrating High Impact Color Infused with Vitamin E and Avocado Oil Smooth Soft Texture Long Lasting Rose Glow Finish 136

I love this brand. My first time trying anything by them even though it’s been in my cart for the longest time. It went on sale and I decided to treat myself to this piece of art. Well worth it! There are a few reasons I love it; 1) Thoughtful packaging. One of the most annoying things when shopping online is when a company doesn’t take the proper steps to ensuring their product arrives to you in perfect condition. Yeah, it is partly Amazon’s job, but from the company to Amazon, that’s their reputation as a company for ensuring quality. The lipstick arrived in a beautifully designed box, and when you opened it there’s a thin layer of cardboard surrounding the actual lipstick. It was the first time I’ve seen it, and it really made me appreciate the company’s thoughtfulness. 2) Every part of the product is beautiful. From packaging to lipstick canister... it’s a work of art. I know their mission is blending beauty with traditional Chinese art/ aesthetics and it’s no joke. This is nothing short of a masterpiece. 3) The lid to the lipstick is magnetic. I think this is another clever and thoughtful design element. I don’t know if you have had a lipstick open in your purse and ruin EVERYTHING, but I have. It is a PAIN to clean out, I’m so sorry if you’ve experienced this too. What I like about this is, if you put it in your purse/pocket/stashie, you’ll never have to worry about it opening, breaking into bits, and ruining everything it comes in contact with. It’s also very satisfying to hold it and hear the metal click in place. 4) It is actually moisturizing. It’s not a company that only does one thing well, design vs quality; it has both. The formula is moisturizing (at least for me) and I live in PA which means chapped lips. The color is pigmented you can build up as much color as you want though. The first time I only did one coat and it was a bit coral, then when I applied multiple coats it has a beautiful rouge color. I can’t really talk about longevity objectively because no matter what brand, lipstick usually lasts all day for me. I’ve talked a lot about it XD so if you’ve made it this far, I hope you can see why it’s worth buying~ I enjoyed everything about this brand and when I save enough, that $108 kit of lipsticks will be mine (broke college student here). I would definitely recommend this to any makeup/ art lover~!

Beautiful packaging, Lovely Autumn color. Wore lightly with balm underneath and lasted well. Wore alone has a smooth semi matte finish which leaves a stain while wearing off. Not drying to the lips

I love my Catkin, although it arrived broken. Here I was excited for a new lipstick, took the cover off and my lipstick looked drunk. Literally. It was leaning over like a drunk. I turn it for a better look... see pictures! Only reason that I gave it 4 stars is Catkin lipstick is fantastic.

I have had my eye on this catkin lipstick and other cosmetics in their line for a couple of months. The moist hydrating lipstick in the color I wanted was on sale for $7.99 and I bought it. It is a beautiful shade goes on smooth and stays on for quite some time. The thing that attracted me to the catkin brand to be truthful is their packaging. I have purchased drugstore brands and high dollar brands of all cosmetics but I love the packaging on the catkin products More than almost any packaging I've ever had. Also the lipstick as you roll it out it is engraved like on the side it is so cool. I am full & overflowing with makeup but I certainly intend to keep my eye out for any sales on this brand just because of the packaging. Now don't get me wrong I love the packaging but the product is fantastic too. I would highly recommend this hydrating lipstick. They have balms glosses foundations powder all types of cosmetics in this lovely packaging so I will be on the lookout as you should be as well.

Delicate but absolutely beautiful. Feels like a luxyry product at a not luxury price.

Great variety of colors. Lipstick stays on a little bit longer than regular lipsticks.

This item was either not new (which I strongly suspect) or was defective or damaged somehow. LOVE the brand (I've ordered before and was happy). But am sincerely disappointed in this particular order.

I’m impressed! The creamy texture is super easy to apply onto my lip and it feel lightweight, the color was great too, perfect for every day use (136) the package is great too, beautiful! The only thing left is I have yet to see how long this is going to last or is it going to be gone the minute I eat or drink something.

I like everything about the product.

Is perfect, i like it so much!

I love the color, it lasts almost for 2 hours for me. It was a little disappointing that it arrived while is was broken at the end. But still is useable.

I am very disappointed in this lipstick shade. I asked for a plum shade, and it is orange. It goes on Orange. I don't wear orange. You have to get your colors sorted out.

Creamy rich lipstick, gorgeous packaging but very brownish in colour. Disappointing.
