UPDATE: Added new pics and swatches in Colorbar Makeup Updates post.
As Palak mentioned in the Colorbar’s I glide Pencils post that the pictures of I-Glide Pencil swatches don’t justify how beautiful the pencils are in real. I can’t agree with her more. These are the better pictures and closest to what the pencils look in real.
Here are the pictures and swatches of the two pencils that I bought. Blackout and Prunella.

Colorbar I Glide Pencils
To give you a teeny weeny update, I swatched these pencils and these are on my hand as if they were always there. I am already getting impressed with their staying power. And these could be smudged within 5-10 seconds of applying.
Palak, does that help?
Thank you so much for mentioning this. Will see if I could get the pictures of the other pencils as well.

I love these pencils! I got these in Prunella, Cocobar & Jaded!
Their lasting power is very good! & yea, I agree with Palak & u – th colors are really pretty in real. I love the purple to bits & have been alternating between tht and cocobar since i got them! Love Love these babies!
Tanveer,
Palak mentioned about the swatches in the previous post, I think you got a little confused.
These are the new pictures and these are the closest to how the pencils look in real.
I am already loving these. Colorbar actually rocks!
iI am always looking for fabulous eye pencils
think will pick this up:)
will definetly mention wher i bought the clothes and accesories from now on
P.S thanks for the comments
Smriti, The colorbar eye pencils are fab. You must surely pick these up.
Oh glad. Thank you for considering my request.
Look very nice! Do show the ribbon kohls properly too if u have time
but if u don’t it’s ok too…i’ll just check them out at a store…no pressure
I wonder if these r similar to Urban Decay’s 24/7 eyeliners
♥XX♥
I will try Cynthia.
These pencils are going to be my HG in coming days. I can already see that.
Never used UD 24*7 so can’t say.
Hi Rati,
Out of curiosity, is the prunella shade purple or more violet (the swatch looks violet). I recently bought a maybelline purple eyeliner (don’t remember name) and later realised that violet would have looked better on me. But haven’t found any brand with a violet shade yet.
Ame the shade is violet only.It’s not very purplish. You may also check the kohl eyeliners in Revlon, I think they also have a shade of purple or violet.
There are two differences that I see between the I Define and I glide pencils:
1. I Glide are creamier. My only and the only issue with I Define pencils was that they are not creamy enough.
2. These could be smudged within 5-10 seconds of application. I Define pencils cannot be smudged.
I think the lasting power of the two is pretty comparable.
Hope that helps.
Also, what is the difference between this and Colorbar’s I define eye pencils? (I believe you have truffle.)
PS. Sorry for the double comment. Forgot to ask the question while commenting earlier.
Don’t worry about double or triple commenting.
oh ! wow .. nice pics ..

the colors are b’ful
Now I wonder if I should have got cocobar and prunella too .. oh my wallet
I dunno buh I find it better than I define pencils .. maybe due to creaminess and ease of creating soft smudged looks , watcha fink ??
Thank you Palak. I hope I have done some justice to pics this time.
This is for the first time i am buying a purplish eyeliner. I have never liked the lightish purplish colors . But this one is gorgeous. Infact, I had paid the bill for the black already and then I couldn’t resist buying Prunella. Got two bills generated.
Do you think you would regret buying any of these.
I agree with your I Define and I Glide comment 100% .
beautiful jewel toned violet. i too don’t find milky purple colours flattering on my skin tone.
I bought this for the same reason.
hi Rati,
how r u??
i m surprised to see these pictures as these r really great.
but i myself has bought colorbar pencils twice once in Indigo shade and once a grey shade
both i had gifted to my friend as i m reluctant to use liquid liners dont know y
pl help n wat can u recommend to me for use of pencils as i like various colors available today
Hi Piya,
These pencils are gorgeous and I don’t think you should even give a second thought at buying these.
See more colours here: http://makeupandbeauty.com/2010/03/preties-from-colorbar-and-makeup-updates/
I think you would forget using liquid liners after using these. these are creamy, smudgable and long lasting. I am wearing the balck from these since morning today and these are just intact on my eyes. No smudging, no washing out of colour-nothing. I am super impressed.
Buy may be one of these and see if you like them. I highly recommend these.
I am in love…
with Prunella :-)
Me too Poornima. It’s one of the best purples I have come across.
Oh God.. Oh God.. Its becoming more and more difficult to resist the prunella.. I have never used a purple or blue colour on my eyes.. I have dusky complexion and blue tones make me look even darker.. But you guys are going on and on about the purple. So I am still gonna buy it.. Hope it looks good..
Mrunmayee, you would never know what suits you or not. So go ahead and give those a try. I think we live with a lot of myths. Have fun with makeup and there are no rules to it.
hey can neone tell me how to actually use these pencils..is it essentially a pencil eye liner?? wat do u mean wen u said “u can smudge it easily”??? plzz sme 1 helpppp.. ?:) ?:) ?:) ?:)
hey colorbar just launched sm new eyepencils..thts lyk around 200 i guess..as that sa tld me..n forcibly swatched on my hand..n said..u wil love it..n yes i loved it..!!
but i dont remeber the name..i wil let u know as soon as i get it!!
oh great!!
thanks for letting me know. I’ll check them out.
Hi Rati, when i check colorbar website , they have 2 products I define & I Glide pencil.. Can you please tel me the difference.
i glide ones are creamier , more pigmented and very intense. These are the better ones. i define ones sometimes tug your eyes. Go for i glide.
Thank you Rati..
