Colorbar Lip Pot 008 Bitten Berry Swatches and Review

Ever since I laid my eyes on the beautiful Colorbar lip pots and the gorgeous shades available, I have been restless to get my hands on one. Unfortunately if you are in Pune you will know how badly stocked most Colorbar counters in Pune are. Thankfully I found a Colorbar store in a new mall in Pune and instantly grabbed the lip pot in the shade Bitten Berry. It is a beautiful berry red shade which does not look over the top in any way.

What Colorbar Claims

Pamper your lips with this deliciously syrupy lip color, cushiony and wet; it optically plumps your lips for a sexy plushy pout you’ll become addicted to! Surprisingly comfortable and emollient, it soothes your smile all day long. You’ve never felt color like this before, supremely sumptuous color for full, shapely lips that always look lush, plush and gorgeous.

Price: The lip pots are priced at INR 495 for around 6gm of product. The packaging is super cute. I love the little round dibbi with the silver cap. Unfortunately there is no applicator provided so you will have to use a lip brush or use your fingers to dab on the lipstick.

Texture and Pigmentation: The texture is smooth and buttery. I use a lip brush to apply the lipstick and it glides on like a dream. Moreover the pigmentation is amazing and one swipe gives beautiful color and almost opaque coverage. The finish is glossy and beautiful. The color does not transfer or bleed and settles down well. The lipstick or lip gloss whatever it is meant to be is fairly moisturizing and is great for my chapped lips.

The color is beautiful. The berry shade is perfect for winters and you can easily wear this shade during the day as well as night as well. I love it.. love it.. love it. The best part is it stays for around five to six hours. Even after fading it leaves a beautiful tint on the lips. 

What Do I Not Like

• You have to buy a separate lip brush
• It unfortunately has a slightly weird smell like other Colorbar lip products
• A little pricey compared to other lipsticks
• Some lighter shades like Coral Crush are not that pigmented.

I love these lip pots and would get all of them given a chance. The quality and pigmentation of these lip pots is great. Do get one at least. I am planning to try other shades like Cherry Pop and Toffee Tango J

Yay!!!! My Colorbar Haul

I had decided that I was not going to buy anything before the latest Mac launch. After all I needed to save money right for the biggest ever Mac collection to hit stores this year. :P Well, my resolution went down the drain thanks to a lot of factors. The first and most important factor is that the collection has not launched in this poor city of ours L. Secondly I went to Amanora Town Centre which is a sprawling new mall in Pune and surprisingly ended up in front of a Colorbar store. I had never ever seen a Colorbar store in my life and most of the Colorbar counters in Pune are so badly stocked that you cringe every time you go there and see those bad, literally falling apart testers.

So anyways I went all bersek and almost cried when I saw that they have around fifteen velvet matte lipsticks (Most counters I went had just three to four!!). They also had the new Colorbar kajals, the shimmery I glide pencils, the shimmer magic baked blushes, eyeshadows and even the makeup brushes. So happily I shopped and shopped and then discovered that on a purchase of more than Rs. 1200 you get a velvet matte lipstick free so shopped some more. Here is my tiny little Colorbar haul. Swatches and Reviews coming soon. Enjoy…

Colorbar Flat Eye Smudger Brush 122

Price: Around INR 600

The flat smudger brush is great smudging your liner, doing some crease work or even applying color under eyes. It is made of goat hair and seems expensive but I actually quite liked it.  The bristles are tightly packed and it seems a bit scratchy. It works amazingly well as a smudger.

Color Eye Shadow Purple Passion

Price: INR 300 (It was previously INR250)

A shimmery rich purple color. It is just the color I wanted.

Colorbar Lip Pot Bitten Berry

A beautiful berry color which reminds me of Christmas. I am in love with this color and the wonderful texture of this lip pot which by the way is a lipstick in pot and not a lip gloss.

My Freebies: Colorbar Velvet Matte Lipstick Crème Cup

It is a fabulous nude shade. The price of this is around INR 225 but I got it free..free..free.
