My Experience with Colorbar Full Finish Long Wear Lipstick:

  • These lipsticks come in a sleek silver casing. Once you open the cap, the lipsticks are encased in plastic grey covering.I like the pretty packaging, easier to carry. Also the caps are tight.

  • I have three of the six shades from the Colorbar long wear lipstick range.

Truffle is a an earthy brown colour. Soft shade and would suit a lot of Indian skin tones. A nice subtle colour for office wear.

Plum Show is a bright fuchsia plum shade.

Tempt me a terracotta brown colour. It has a little orange undertone. On lips, truffle and tempt me look quite similar. i just feel Truffle would be an easier colour to pull off.

  • The long wear lipstick is matte. It is super pigmented and opaque.
  • The lipstick doesn’t smear or smudge even though every shade is pretty bright.
  • It stays on my lips for 4 hours. These 4 hours include a full meal and some snack munching. Even after a full meal, the colour is still on my lips. Without a meal and just snacks, the lipstick stay on even longer. I would put this Colorbar range in “long wear lipstick” category.
  • It is quite drying but not so drying to make your lips uncomfortable. If you have chapped lips, these might not be a good option for you.
  • The lipstick doesn’t have any weird smell.
  • Colorbar has packed this lipstick nicely. The color stickers are stuck at the bottom of the lipstick so it is easier to locate. Just store it upside down in a mug and you are sorted.

The not so good things about Colorbar Full Finish Long Wear Lipstick:

  • The shade selection is very limited. 4 out of 6 lipsticks are brown.
  • It does not live up to the 8 hour stay on claim. I think that would hold true only if you don’t eat, drink or talk.
  • I think it’s expensive at Rs 550. Most Colorbar lipsticks are priced anything between 200-350/-

  1. Hi Rati!

    I thought it did look expensive, the price, at first. but after seeing your photos, i think that the lipsticks are well worth the price, all three colours look absolutely gorgeous on you. But I must admit that the shade PLum Show looks absolutely ravishing on you. nice review πŸ™‚
    Are there any lipstick palettes in colorbar or any other brand which sport about four of five pink shades atleast? I saw the lakme range but they were too earthy and brown.

    1. Hi Praseena,

      Welcome to IMBB. πŸ™‚ To be honest I never mention about the price of the products because I feel a company has full right to decide the worth of their product. Just that mostly people relate to Rs 200- 300 Rs price range when it comes to Colorbar lipsticks. So I felt they went a little far with their price range this time. Plum show is a really pretty shade. thank you so much. πŸ™‚

      I think years back it was Colorbar only that used to carry lipstick palettes. Now I don’t know of any other brand that has lipstick palettes other than Lakme. In Inglot you can make your custom lip palettes. A little expensive but you won’t regret buying them. πŸ™‚

  2. Rati I like the truffle…will test it on my lips…I prefer glosses mostly for work…umm..lemme try this one..thanx so much for the pics.. πŸ™‚

        1. yeah i guess too but as nivedita says most of the shades are in the range of red to plum. None I’m interested in πŸ™ Preeti could you possibly post a link to the source of your info?

  4. Hi HD,

    Long time. πŸ™‚ How are you doing?

    Diwlai was pretty good. I agree that the shade selection is not that great. Hope they include some nicer colours because the lipsticks are pretty decent. πŸ™‚

  5. Truffle shade in lakme aquashine is really good, and plum too in lakme and loreal. But i prefer pinks and browns only, i think plum makes me look dull.
