Hello Gals! :D
Am back with another post on my current obsession.. yeah "Lipstick". ;) Recently colorbar launched these chubby pencil stick lip colors which are BTW very similar to the clinique chubby stick lip color balm if you consider the packaging. However these are not balms but highly pigmented lip colors that most of us are gonna love.
I have 3 of these and will review them one by one. Today will concentrate on the pretty pink from the lot i have.Its called "Flirtatious Pink".
The free sharpener...
My Experience:
The packaging is what attracted me to this lipstick for the first time but the price really put me off. Not that we don't spend so much on lipsticks it was just that colorbar as a brand had all its lipstick ranges coming under the 500/- price tag so suddenly 700/- was a bit to much for me. :P I still feel its pricey but then the quality is not bad.
Here are the swatches of all the 3 shades i have.
The color is rich,creamy and glossy.Glides smoothly on the lips and would not dry even the driest of the lips. Inspite of being so creamy and glossy these do not bleed.The glossy shine is there for as long as it is on your lips. On me it is for around 3.5 hrs after which i have to reapply.
The shade is a pretty pink with just a hint of peach.This just fades evenly to a lighter pink with time. The shade is not very unique and easily dupable but the finish is what makes these lipsticks different. While i love matte lip colors the best, i am loving this glossy feel a lot too. If you have thin lips then you will love these as they invariably make your lips look fuller .
You may face two kinds of problem with these.
On my lips!

- The awful chemical smell it has :/

My Rating: 3.85 out of 5
My Recommendation: While the shades are not unique but the feel is different.I would not say these are must haves but definitely worth a try! i personally may not repurchase but i'll surely enjoy it while these last me. :)
Hope this helped!
luv
