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.

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:)
P.S thanks for the comments 🙂 will definetly mention wher i bought the clothes and accesories from now on 🙂
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: https://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..!!
:clap: 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.. 🙂
