Hi Everyone!
I am more into pink and nude lipsticks these days and today I am going to review my old and much forgotten rust color lipstick. It has been lying unused in my vanity case for more than a year. Here is the review of Colorbar Love That Rust Velvet Matte Lipstick:

My Experience With Colorbar Love That Rust Velvet Matte Lipstick:
It has been a year and I still remember craving for a rust color lipstick before I bought this beauty. I have used this often in the initial days of its purchase and have finished half of it already. Now, that these days I like wearing pink, beige and nude shades, I had totally forgotten this rust beauty. I have not used this since a very long time.
Color and texture:
As the name suggests, it has a lovable rust color with a tint of glossy shine in it. It is a darker shade of rust closer to brown and maroon undertones. This particular shade of rust lipstick can be worn only on special occasions and parties. I have often worn this one with traditional attire on special occasions. I am sure this color will complement many of our Indian skin tones. The texture of this lipstick is smooth and glides easily on lips. Though, it is highly pigmented, you would need to run the lipstick twice or thrice to get its actual shade. If you have dry and chapped lips , then it tends to settle on the fine lines of the lips.
Packaging:
Like other Colorbar Velvet Matte Lipstick this one too comes with a silver metallic body and a transparent cap that fits in tightly and does not fall off. The color of the lipstick is visible through its transparent cap. I like its base that helps you in choosing the shade of lipstick easily. The Colorbar logo is embossed in black color on its transparent cap and there is a silver sticker at bottom with its name, weight and code on it.
Staying Power:
This lipstick stays up to 4 hours without eating a meal. However, it fails its claim that it stays up for five hours. It stains badly and gets transferred easily. I happened to drink coffee one day and I could notice half of the lipstick getting transferred on the coffee cup. Though, Colorbar Love That Rust Velvet Matte Lipstick come in pretty lovely shades to choose from, staining is the only reason that holds me back from not buying other shades of this range.

Do I Recommend Colorbar Velvet Matte Lipstick Love That Rust?
No, I do not recommend this product as it stains badly and is highly transferable. Also, while choosing a matte lipstick, I would not want a lipstick that has any tint of shine in it. If you wish to particularly choose a rust shade, then there are many other perfect matte lipsticks from different brands that stay longer and are non-transferable.
