18 Colors La Catrina Lipstick Palette 16.8g

DE'LANCI 18 Colors La Catrina Lipstick Palette offers far more than just color variety.  

Embrace of Comfort: Ingredients like Shea Butter, Ethylhexyl Palmitate, Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride, and Mineral Oil/Petrolatum create a rich, emollient base. This translates to a lipstick that feels nourishing, glides effortlessly, and continuously conditions lips – counteracting the drying effect often associated with long-wear or matte formulas.  

Engineered Longevity: The powerhouse trio of Bis-Diglyceryl Polyacyladipate-2, Polyisobutene, and Trimethylsiloxysilicate forms a flexible, breathable, yet tenacious film. This isn't just "staying power"; it's resilience. It binds pigments securely, resists transfer onto cups or collars, and maintains vibrancy through eating, drinking, and talking – offering freedom from constant reapplication anxiety. 

True-To-Pan Pigmentation: The extensive "May Contain" list reveals a vast arsenal of Iron Oxides, D&C/FD&C Lakes, Titanium Dioxide, and specialized effect pigments (Aluminum Powder, Synthetic Fluorphlogopite). This diversity allows for: 

Depth & Nuance: Achieving complex shades (mauves, terracottas, deep berries) that aren't flat. 

Intensity & Clean Color: Lakes provide vibrant, opaque hues without bleeding or feathering. 

Diverse Finishes: Matte (Iron Oxides), satin (Mica), metallic (Aluminum Powder), high-shimmer (Synthetic Fluorphlogopite) – all within one palette, enabling limitless creative expression. 

Enhanced Adhesion & Blendability: Triethoxycaprylylsilane acts as a pigment "primer," coating particles for smoother dispersion, improved adherence to lips, and easier blending/layering of shades. Colors apply evenly and stay where you put them.

Precision & Control: The wax blend (Ozokerite, Microcrystalline Wax) and Polyethylene provide the perfect balance of firmness and creamy payoff. This allows for sharp lip lines, controlled application (especially crucial for bold/dark shades), and prevents the bullet from breaking or melting easily. It’s dependable artistry in stick form. 

Sophisticated Texture Evolution: Polyethylene and the silicones subtly modify texture. The initial creamy glide might transform into a velvety, blurred matte or a comfortable, non-sticky satin/shimmer finish as emollients absorb, enhancing the sensory journey. 

Preservation of Integrity: Phenoxyethanol and Propylparaben (despite paraben controversy, effective) ensure microbial safety, especially vital for a cream product used near the mouth and applied repeatedly. BHA and Tocopheryl Acetate protect the emollient-rich formula from rancidity, preserving its performance, scent, and feel over time. 

Lip Care Integration: Shea Butter and Tocopheryl Acetate provide genuine moisturizing, antioxidant, and soothing benefits. This isn't just decoration; it's an act of care integrated into the ritual of adornment. 

The DE'LANCI palette transcends being a mere collection of colors. It represents a thoughtful convergence: 

Empowerment: Offering professional-level pigment, longevity, and finish diversity to fuel bold self-expression.

Indulgence: Prioritizing comfort and lip health through rich emollients and conditioning agents.

Reliability: Engineered for performance (long-wear, non-transfer, precise application) and stability (preserved, oxidation-resistant).

Artistry: Providing the tools (diverse pigments, finishes, blendable textures) for true creative exploration on the canvas of the lips. 

It’s designed for those who see lipstick not just as color, but as an integral part of their expression, demanding both uncompromising performance and sensory satisfaction. This palette delivers on the promise of transformative color that feels as good as it looks, and lasts as long as your confidence demands.

• ETHYLHEXYL PALMITATE: Emollient. Provides smoothness, slip, and moisturization. Creates a luxurious feel.
• OZOKERITE: Structuring Wax/Bulking Agent. A natural mineral wax that gives the lipstick its solid structure, hardness, and helps it hold its shape. Provides emolliency.
• MINERAL OIL: Emollient/Occlusive. A highly refined petroleum derivative that lubricates, conditions, and forms a protective barrier to prevent moisture loss.
• PETROLATUM: Occlusive/Emollient. Forms a strong protective barrier on the lips to lock in moisture and prevent dryness/chapping. Provides significant emolliency.
• CAPRYLIC/CAPRIC TRIGLYCERIDE: Emollient/Solubilizer. A lightweight, fast-absorbing emollient derived from coconut oil that conditions and helps dissolve other ingredients. Improves texture.
• POLYETHYLENE: Texture Modifier/Bulking Agent/Opacifier. Plastic microbeads used to adjust texture (thickness, slip), add bulk, and sometimes provide opacity or a matte finish. Can also improve durability.
• BIS-DIGLYCERYL POLYACYLADIPATE-2: Film Former/Adhesive. A key ingredient for long-wear lip products. It forms a flexible, water-resistant film on the lips that helps bind pigments and increases adhesion and longevity.
• MICA: Bulking Agent/Opacity Modifier/Pearlescent Effect. A natural mineral that provides bulk, adjusts opacity, and gives a subtle shimmer or pearlescent effect. Often coated with colorants.
• BUTYROSPERMUM PARKI (SHEA) BUTTER: Emollient/Moisturizer. A rich, nourishing butter that deeply moisturizes, conditions, and soothes lips. Contains beneficial fatty acids and vitamins.
• POLYISOBUTENE: Binder/Adhesive/Viscosity Modifier. A synthetic polymer that helps bind pigments and other ingredients together, improves adhesion to lips (longevity), and thickens the formula.
• SYNTHETIC FLUORPHLOGOPITE: Pearlescent Effect/Bulking Agent. A synthetic version of mica, coated with metal oxides (like titanium dioxide) to create intense shimmer, sparkle, or pearl effects.
• MICROCRYSTALLINE WAX: Structuring Wax. A refined petroleum wax that provides structure, hardness, and gloss to the lipstick. Helps control melting point and improves application feel.
• PHENOXYETHANOL: Preservative. A widely used, broad-spectrum preservative to prevent microbial growth and extend product shelf life.
• TOCOPHERYL ACETATE (Vitamin E Acetate): Antioxidant/Conditioning Agent. A stable form of Vitamin E that helps protect the formula from oxidation (rancidity) and provides moisturizing benefits to the lips.
• TRIETHOXYCAPRYLYLSILANE: Surface Modifier/Binder. A silicone-based ingredient that helps coat pigment particles, improving their dispersion in the formula and adhesion to the lips/skin. Enhances water resistance.
• TRIMETHYLSILOXYSILICATE: Film Former/Waterproofing Agent. A silicone resin that forms a water-resistant, flexible film on the lips, enhancing long-wear properties and waterproofing.
• PROPYLPARABEN: Preservative. A paraben used to prevent fungal and bacterial growth. (Note: Parabens are effective preservatives but some consumers prefer to avoid them).
• BHA (Butylated Hydroxyanisole): Antioxidant. Prevents oils and fats in the formula from oxidizing and becoming rancid. Not the same as Beta Hydroxy Acid (Salicylic Acid).

Essential Prep Steps

• Exfoliate: Gently buff lips with a sugar scrub or soft brush to remove flakes.
• Hydrate: Apply a lightweight lip balm. Blot excess before application to prevent slippage.
• Prime (Optional): Use a lip primer or dab concealer on lips to neutralize color and enhance adhesion. 

Application Techniques by Finish (Select shades based on desired look: mattes, shimmers, metallics) 

Classic Full Coverage

• Line: Use a lip brush or the bullet’s edge to outline lips. Focus on cupid's bow and corners.
• Fill In: Apply straight from the bullet or with a brush for precision. Layer in thin coats for intensity.
• Blot & Set:
• Matte Shades: Press tissue between lips, then dust translucent powder over tissue for velvety finish.
• Metallic/Shimmer Shades: Skip powder; let formula set naturally (avoids dulling sparkle). 

Gradient "Bitten Lips"

• Apply deeper shade to inner center of lips.
• Use fingers or brush to blend outward, fading toward edges.
• Top with clear gloss for a juicy effect (optional). 

Custom Mixing

• Blend 2-3 shades on the back of your hand with a brush.
• Apply hybrid color for unique tones (e.g., mauve + gold = rose gold). 

Pro Tips for Enhanced Performance

• Heat Hack: If formula feels firm, briefly warm bullet between fingers for smoother glide.
• Longevity Boost: Apply thin layer, wait 1 min, then apply second layer. The film-formers (Bis-Diglyceryl, Silicones) will bond better.
• Shimmer/Metallic Focus: Pat sparkly shades onto center of lips after matte base for 3D dimension.
• Avoid Feathering: Use clear lip liner or concealer to seal edges if prone to bleeding. 

Creative Uses Beyond Lips

• ⚠️ (Patch test first! Not all lip products are eye-safe)
• Cream Blush: Dab a small amount of matte shades onto cheeks and blend rapidly.
• Eyeshadow Base: Apply metallic shades with finger onto lids for foil-effect shimmer.
• Highlighter: Tap iridescent/white shimmer onto cheekbones or brow bones. 

Removal

⚠️ Use oil-based remover! The long-wear film-formers resist water. Options:

• Micellar water (oil-infused)
• Cleansing balm/oil
• Vaseline + gentle wipe 

Troubleshooting

• Tugging on application:Warm bullet slightly or apply over balm
• Color fading unevenly: Exfoliate first; use primer; layer thinly
• Metallics looking patchy: Apply with finger; pat, don’t swipe 

Final Notes

• This palette’s high pigment + flexible film technology allows for:
• All-day wear without drying (thanks to Shea Butter + emollients).
• Seamless artistry (blendable, buildable, mixable).
• Multi-functional creativity (lips, cheeks, eyes).
• Experiment freely—its engineered balance of waxes, silicones, and emollients makes it adaptable for both precise lines and diffused washes of color!
