Welcome back to our weekly price comparison roundup! This week (July 27 – August 3), we've scanned all major Iraqi stores to find the Catrice products with the wildest price differences. If you're shopping on a budget, these are the items where a quick comparison can save you serious dinars. Let's dive in.
First up, an absolute jaw-dropper:
Catrice Pret A Volume False Lashes Mascara. The best price is just 10,000 IQD, but one store lists it at a staggering 25,920,000 IQD – a spread of nearly 10,000%! That's almost certainly a data error, but if you spot it anywhere near the lower end, grab it immediately. The curved fiber brush delivers heavy, dramatic lashes in seconds.
Next, another mascara with a huge gap:
Catrice lash light lash extension fibres Mascara. Prices range from 5,500 to 11,200 IQD – a 103.6% spread. For just 5,500 IQD you get special fibers that lengthen and thicken your lashes. Layer the fibers, then top with mascara, and you'll have unparalleled volume.
Moving to eyes:
Catrice BrightTte is a six-pan pastel palette with a 95.3% price spread (5,120 – 10,000 IQD). The soft, highly pigmented shades offer finishes from light shimmer to strong pearl. At the best price, it's a steal for trendy pastel looks.
For lips,
Catrice Volumizing Extreme Lip Booster has an 88.2% spread (8,500 – 16,000 IQD). Thanks to menthol and lip pepper, it plumps and creates a captivating pout. At 8,500 IQD, it's a budget-friendly way to get fuller lips.
Another mascara making the list:
The Rond Waterproof Mascara available at three stores, ranging from 5,000 to 8,528 IQD (70.6% spread). It adds size, length, and curl, coating each lash separately for a dramatic, waterproof finish.
Face products also offer big savings.
Catrice Nude Illusion Loose Powder is found in five stores with prices from 7,000 to 11,000 IQD – a 57.1% spread. This micro-fine powder gives a soft-focus effect and long-lasting matte finish, perfect for all skin types.
Foundation lovers:
Catrice True Skin Hydating Foundation (shade 010) has a 57% spread (13,250 – 20,800 IQD). It hides impurities and redness thanks to watermelon seed oil, offering medium-to-high coverage with a natural finish.
Brow products are also worth comparing.
Catrice Super Glue Brow Styling Gel - 010 Clear ranges from 6,000 to 9,250 IQD (54.2% spread). This transparent gel shapes brows with strong hold, no stickiness, and an easy-to-use brush.
For precise liner,
Catrice 24H Brush Eyeliner - 010 Black is available in five stores, priced between 6,750 and 10,000 IQD (48.1% spread). Its waterproof formula lets you create everything from fine lines to dramatic wings.
Finally,
Catrice Eye Brow Stylist (shade 30) has a 38.6% spread (5,000 – 6,928 IQD). This pencil with a styling brush helps you shape and fill brows effortlessly.
That's it for this week! Remember: always check prices across stores before buying. The difference could be enough for another Catrice product. Happy shopping!
