I believe these replaced their Ultimate Colour lipsticks which managed to last considerably well on Catrice's stands compared to most of their products. I had several of those and I considered them some of the best for the price, but these new ones have such a delightful formula, I can only compare them to two formulas and these are the most affordable ones. The initial launch of these completely passed me by, I mean I was aware of them, but you know how Catrice discontinues everything, so most of the time I just don't find it worth it trying their stuff because it's gone so fast - now that I've tried them, it's a shame it took me a while to really checked them out because the formula is so nice. 

Texture and finish: Formula is incredibly smooth, the only two formulas I can compare these two are Bourjois' Velvet Rouge the Lipstick and Colourpop Lippiestix Matte X, but it isn't completely matte like those two. Finish is slightly shiny, but not creamy - Catrice named it well as demi matte.
Shade: 100 Nude Crush Everyday is such a lovely nude shade. It's neither warm not cool, it just sits perfectly in the middle and it's also not too pale. Catrice likes to repeat themselves when it comes to shades, but I've not seen one like this one before. I've seen this shade look more cool mauve on others than it does on me and usually the opposite happens.

Staying power: It doesn't shine in the staying department like their Colour Ultimates did, so that's one department if falls...
