Colorbar Creme Touch Lipstick-Nude Coral
This is my second review after being a silent reader of IMBB for almost 2 years now, finally I decided (read: had the guts :P) to start reviewing stuff from my vanity for you guys.I would like to thank team IMBB for converting me from a ‘no-lipstick person’ to ‘I cannot live without lipsticks person’.
Anyway coming to the review, the other day I had gone to The Beauty Centre and while my mom was buying lipsticks for herself my eyes fell on this beauty and when I swatched it I was like “OMG”! I have to buy it. Being a dusky girl, I used to always feel that corals always suited people with fair complexion better. But this lipstick proved me wrong and I’m so glad it did!! 😉
Price:
Rs. 450 for 4.5gm (btw Beauty Centre is having a 23% off on Colorbar Cosmetics, so attack girls!!)
Product Description:
ColorbarCreme Touch Lipstick comes with the promise of lips that are eloquent and luscious. It comes with lovely rich colours and rich in moisturising properties making lips look fuller and creamier all day long. It has shea butter, Vitamin E and sunscreen agents at SPF 15 level which nourish and protect your lips against UV rays. It glides on effortlessly for flawless, even coverage for that perfect pout. ColorbarCreme Touch Lipsticks are the perfect way to pamper your lips, not only you will love the rich, lustrous colour, but the lovely creamy texture of the lip colour as well.
Ingredients:
Castor Oil, Octyldodecanol, OctylMethoxycinnamate, White Soft Paraffin, Lanolin Anhydrous, Ozokerite Wax, Microcrystalline Wax, Benzophenone-3, PerformalenePLPolymer, Polymethyl- Sisesquioxane Phenyl Trimethicone, Shea Butter, Candelilla Wax, Fragrance, Almond Oil, Jojoba Oil, Propyl Paraben, Tocopheryl Acetate, BHA. May Contain; CI 42090, CI19140, CI77891, cI 77499, CI77491, CI77492, CI15850:1, CI 75470, CI 77861, CI77019, Tin Oxide, Mica.
Packaging:
It comes in silver metallic case which looks quite classy but whenever you touch it, your fingerprints can be easily seen on the lipstick and it looks quite dirty that way. So I have to clean the case everytime I use it.
Also unlike the velvet matte ones, you can’t c the color of the lipsticks unless u open and see it or u manage remembering the names 😛
Shade:
It is a beautiful coral shade which is not “In your face coral”, but a subtle coral with slight pinkish brown under tones. It can be easily worn on a daily basis.
Pigmentation/Texture:
The lipstick is super-duper creamy, glides smoothly and the texture is so brilliant that it covers the entire lip pigmentation in one swipe! Also it lends a nice creamy glossy shine to your lips so u don’t even have to wear a gloss above it. Its so moisturizing that I don’t need a lip balm under it and yet my lips don’t crave for moisture (yayyy!!)
Since its so creamy it may settle in fine lines so I would suggest that you properly exfoliate your lips before using these beauties.It stays for 2-3 hours after which it starts fading slightly but it doesn’t stain at all. My only gripe is that since its so creamy it easily transfers everywhere!
Here u can see how one swipe has covered the lip pigmentation completely!
Pros of Colorbar Creme Touch Lipstick-Nude Coral:
• True to its name, beautiful coral nude. Finally dusky beauties have their own coral.
• Has SPF 15.
• Excellent color payoff in one swipe.
• Glides smoothly.
• Doesn’t stain.
Cons of Colorbar Creme Touch Lipstick-Nude Coral:
• Transfers easily.
• I wish their packaging had colors at the bottom so that we could know which color is inside(like velvet matte ones)
Would I recommend/repurchase Colorbar Creme Touch Lipstick-Nude Coral?
I have already bought 4 more lippies from this range. 😛
IMBB rating:
4.5/5 (minus marks for transferring easily)
