When our love for makeup intersects with our favorite childhood icon, we just can’t resist the cuteness! The Hello Kitty x Cathy Doll collection is now out, and everything in the rose-hued line looks like the perfect addition to our makeup kits. And with each item just under P400, it’s hard to resist buying everything!
Cathy Doll, a Thailand-founded cosmetic brand for over 8 years, has been loved by makeup fans and acclaimed for its unique, topnotch makeup inspired by K-beauty, as well as beauty innovations for all kinds of Asian skin. Its super cute, colorful packaging, which often features illustrations of cheerful cartoon dolls, makes the products stand out in beauty counters. Cathy Doll has been one of the leading Asian beauty brands for its presence in Myanmar, Laos, Vietnam, Cambodia, China, Taiwan, Hong Kong, Singapore, Malaysia and Indonesia, and of course in the Philippines since 2016.
Sanrio‘s fictional character Hello Kitty on the other hand has been a staple of the Japanese culture’s kawaii fashion, and has become a full-blown lifestyle brand and phenomenon since the ’90s.
The Hello Kitty x Cathy Doll collection is inspired by the latest in k-beauty trends, and it shows in the inclusion of lip and cheek tints and velvety lip formulas in this new selection. Blushers, brow pencils and compact face powders are also included, which gives you pretty much everything you need to do a full makeup look. Check these out:
This season, matte and plump lips are in! The Airy Lip Blur covers your pout with a velvety rich color, matched with lip care ingredients. The formula is infused with camellia flower extract and hyaluronic acid to keep your lips soft and hydrated. Plus, the powdery matte finish is on point for copping K-beauty looks. There are four shades available: Pink Rose, Peach Rose, Sun Rose, and Red Rose.
Hello Kitty Color Lipstick (P399)
Love lipsticks that glide on effortlessly? The Color Lipstick features a pigmented satin formula that smoothly applies on the lips. We looove this lippie’s sweet strawberry scent! While its sleek metallic rose tube makes it an eye-candy, and makes lipstick application even more fun. They come in four shades: Cherry Bomb, Sorbet Halabong, Dry Persimmon, and Fresh Berry.
Hello Kitty Lip & Cheek Matte Mousse (P279)
Multipurpose products are awesome because aside from they save space in your makeup kits, they also save you some bucks. This Lip & Cheek Matte Mousse is multifunctional. The frosted tube packs a punch of color that can be used as eyeshadow, blush and lip color. The silky formula is easy to blend, and it contains mixed berry and aloe vera extracts that can nourish your skin as well. Scented with vanilla, these are available in 4 shades: Carrot, Walnut, Punch, and Red Ribbon.
Hello Kitty Cotton Shine Blusher (P299) and Hello Kitty Cotton Matte Blusher (P299)
If you prefer powder blushes, the Hello Kitty x Cathy Doll collection gives you two finishes and three shades to choose from. Frozen Strawberry and Frozen Peach deliver a pretty flush with shimmer for glowy cheeks, while Choco Cherry offers a matte finish. The finely textured powders are pigmented and glide on the skin, making application super easy!
Hello Kitty Oil Control Blur Pact (P249)
Skin issues like excess oil and unwanted shine are easily addressed with the help of the Oil Control Blur Pact. It comes with a small puff and a little mirror that makes it easy to pack and apply on the go. The powder is translucent and helps blur the appearance of pores, so you can use it both for setting makeup or touching up through the day.
Hello Kitty Blur Brow Powder Pencil (P229)
Further taking cues from K-beauty, the Blur Brow Powder Pencil gives soft definition to your arches. It has a smooth formula that makes it easy to fill eyebrows. The rich pigment is waterproof and long-wearing too. There’s also a built-in sharpener at the bottom end so you can refine the tip as needed. You can choose from Soft Brown or Dark Brown shades.
Of course, everything is pretty in pink and features a cute print of our well-loved Hello Kitty. Don’t you just want to get them all?
