These Glamorous, Glitzy CATTIVA Beauty Products are Now at Stanley Korshak

They looked so pretty sitting on my mirrored nightstand.

Do you know how many beauty brands come out of Texas? Aside from the well known ones like Mary Kay, Jack Black, and Niven Morgan, we’ve got a slew of under-the-radar local skincare and makeup lines that will blow your mind. I got a pitch last week from Austin mineral-based cosmetics company CATTIVA, launched by former model Joelle Maryn. The sparkles scared me. I like glitter, but anything too bedazzled doesn’t tickle my fancy. These cases are all kinds of sparkly. (Although I’m sort of into the black rhinestones on the mascara–they remind me of edgy studs.) But, more importantly, after playing with a couple samples that were sent, I think I really dig the products. The lip gloss is a bit sticky (I can handle that), smells like vanilla, and stays on for hours. The eyeliner surprisingly lasted through an 85-degree outdoor workout with only a minimal amount of smudging. The mascara is my favorite part. It actually gives my lashes a little volume and no. clumping. (And everything makes my lashes clump.) It’s not dramatic. No thick goop hanging onto a couple strands. Just clean, evenly coated lashes. As for the eyeshadow? Haven’t tried it yet. TBA. Until then, the compact would be fun to whip out out parties as a glamorous accessory. Find CATTIVA at Stanley Korshak. Prices run $20 to $50.
