Colorbar High Definition Kohl Eye Liner Review

Today I shall be reviewing Colorbar High Definition Kohl Eye liner. No product has ever confiused me as this and I regret to say that I don’t really have a definite verdict on it. Well yes… I have mixed feelings about it… There! I said it ๐Ÿ™‚
First things first, I got this kohl by mistake. I went to get myself a Colorbar I-Glide pencil in black but after paying my bill, the SA handed me over this. I didnt quite check it cause I was in a hurry, plus all Colorbar pencils and their cartons look very similar ๐Ÿ™ So, you can say that I got hoodwinked ๐Ÿ™

Well anyways, the pencil comes in an attractive Silver and black carton, which looks something like this:

Inside, the pencil cover is grey in color and is in roll-on form. You see this when I realised my mistake of not getting an _-Glide pencil but some other kajal pencil ๐Ÿ™ Well anyways, this is how it looks…

What the Colorbar site claims?

Well, strangely the colorbar site does not mention this kohl at all. Either it is extremely old and discontinued or it’s a latest product! Ladies, any pointers here?

COLOR

Well, it’s black and the name of the shade is also โ€œJust Blackโ€. It is black and quite โ€œjetโ€. No problem in that department ๐Ÿ™‚ It swatches beautifully on the hand and seems pretty smooth ๐Ÿ™‚ The swatch is as follows:

As you all can see, it really is black and the swatch is just 2-swipes old.

Now I come to the weird part. It refuses to get applied on my eyes. It is not easy to be applied on either my waterline or on my lashline! It just simply says NO! An image as proof:

As you can see, it looks charcoal grey and not black on the eyes ๐Ÿ™ And do note that this is the color that I got when i swiped the kajal 27 times!! I swear! No exaggeration! You see, after this I totally gave up on the product and felt really cheated out of my money ๐Ÿ™ But… Oh yes! There is a but here, I had totally forgotten about the swatch of the kajal on my hand. I noticed it while washing my hands before dinner that the swatch line was as is with no smudges… Do you get me? NO SMUDGES at all!!! Is that even possible? Well, then i tried washing it off with water but it would still not budge!!! I swear it didn’t even smudge under the tap!!!! Only with soap did it actually flake out and got erased!!!

You see, now this really impressed me. I went totally GA GA over the kohl, so I tried improvising with it. So, I came to a conclusion that if I swipe the kajal 27 times and then apply a bit of liquid liner on it, it actually stays on and also looks black ๐Ÿ™‚ It’s a compromise but it sure works ๐Ÿ™‚

How much did I get it for?

Well, like I said earlier, I paid for an I-Glide pencil but got this by mistake or errrr by the SA’s cunningness so am not really sure how much it costs and the carton doesn’t really have a price sticker on it.so in all I pair Rs.325/- for it! ๐Ÿ˜›

Let me now list out the pros and cons of the product:

      ok wait! which precision liner are we talking bout? :talktohand: :talktohand: :talktohand: :talktohand: :talktohand: :talktohand:

        1. ooooohhhhh.. this one!!! Even I bought it with the kajal…
          I am doing the next review on that unless of course some one else comes up with it first ๐Ÿ˜‰

  2. Next time, buy a Kohl that smudges, rub it on your arms, and then rub your arms against your eyes. You will get much more black on your eyes that way.

    Right now, you have a white elephant. :whistle: :whistle:

          1. MAN??? Oink!!! then what are you when the biwi is in???
            oh! The gravatar-pic says it all ๐Ÿ˜‰ ๐Ÿ˜› :loser: :devil: :devil: :devil: :devil: :devil: :devil: :devil: :tongue: :tongue: :tongue: :tongue: :tongue: :tongue:

              1. LOL LOL LOL *giggle* *giggle* *giggle* :jiggy2: :jiggy2: :jiggy2: :jiggy2: :jiggy2: :jiggy2: :jiggy2: :jiggy2: why do u think I am not married as yet ๐Ÿ˜‰ ๐Ÿ˜›

                    1. It is such a mystery..when you are young you don’t wanna hear from someone that you are wet behind you ears. And when you are old you don’t wanna hear that you are past your prime…there must be an age when you can agree on that. :joker: :joker: :joker:

            1. wow! both Sanjeev and Rati have used the same smiley ๐Ÿ™‚ awwwww…. :heart: :heart: :heart: :heart: :heart: :heart: :heart: :heart:
              ok… I am full of mush!!!!

  3. ahh.. a bit out of context ๐Ÿ™‚
    i want to buy my 1st eye liner and mascara (volume) ๐Ÿ˜€
    which brands good for a beginner?
    Options: Revlon Colorbar Lakme ? (these available close by to me ๐Ÿ™‚ )

    1. I hear the Maybelline Colossal Volume is good though I haven’t used it. I use the REVLON waterproof mascara and it is pretty good on my barely there lashes ๐Ÿ™‚
      Liner: ELF liquid liner is awesome and so is Colorbar’s Precision Water proof liner. My friend says Lakme’s liner is also very good ๐Ÿ™‚

  4. I always bad a bad experience with their manager ,. the SAs are cute. The manager is like he learns all the ingredients and the claims of each product everyday and as soon as a customer asks him about the product he vomits it out the whole in one go. I was complaining why is colorbar increasing the price of nail paints and he goes like ( in one breath)- chip resistant, long staying, fast drying..blah blah . I was like huh!! ๐Ÿ˜ฏ pay and run away from the store. ๐Ÿ˜› ๐Ÿ˜›

    1. LOL!!!! i did the same that is pay and run away but then i got cheated out with a wrong product ๐Ÿ™
      ok i am ultra cribby today ๐Ÿ™ ?:) ?:) ?:) ?:)

  5. Suma…..this happened just one time to you na….i have faced these kind of disappointments so many times…………. :weep: :weep: :weep: :weep: :weep:

  6. wowww – dats one tough product ๐Ÿ™‚
    so finally how did u get it on ur waterline. AND did u try on ur lid?
    but seriously pune central SAs have dupes me too… ๐Ÿ™

  7. i too got bad output from colorbar blue kohl….when i sharped it…it is not at all smooth like before…..

  8. Colorbar kajal is for 125 rupees. Your remaining 200 rupees went for a toss. You must have gone back next day. Even I was thinking to replenish my colorbar’s stock and the only counter I’ve seen so far in Pune for colorbar products is at Pune Central. In Delhi I would get it any local street corner. But Now I’m scared to go and buy from Pune Central ๐Ÿ™
    Will try ordering online.
