Ingredients:


MRP: £3.00

So after the Revlon Kissable Balm Stain and Lakme Pop Tint, I tried the MUA Power Pout..


Packaging wise its exactly like the Revlon Balm Stain..retractable packaging with a cap and shade wise outer body..and even has that peppermint smell..and cooling feeling..


Texture wise, its veryy balmy..super glossy..its so much like a balm..that it melts and breaks..as you can see..more balmy than the Clinique Chubby Sticks too..it even repairs chapped or dry lips..

But color wise, its not as sheer as the Chubby sticks..and more pigmented..and once the glossiness settles, it gives a nice color..and stays for 3-4 hours and leaves behind a stain..

Crazy in Love is a bright juicy raspberry shade with some shimmer..I just love it..how it looks all glossy and juicy on the lips…I do not have a shade as fresh and juicy as this, in my stash..

Pros:

1. Super balmy and moisturising..it even heals dry lips.
2. Pigmented..and leaves behind a stain..not sheer kinds.
3. Super affordable.
4. Decent quantity.
5. 6 shades to choose from.
6. Love the shade..very fresh and brightens up the face.
7. Does not settle in fine lines.
8. Has castor seed oil, jojoba oil, shea butter and waxes in ingredients..so obviously works great as a balm too.

Cons:

1. Available online.
2. Melts and breaks.

Overall I love these..I wanted to try one but now I regret not getting all :p These are super balmy yet pigmented..and super affordable..Highly Recommend !

Colorbar Take Me As I Am Lip Color Sinful Orange Review, Swatches

Colorbar Take Me As I Am Lip Color Sinful Orange Review, Swatches- MAC Morange Dupe ?

 What the Company claims: Take me as I am lip color is a unique multifunctional product which provides the application of a lipstick combined with the convenience of a pencil in a jumbo crayon design. It is an extra creamy and soft feeling lipstick formula with excellent color pay-off and coverage. Viscous oils and esters create the beautiful shine. Skin conditioning ingredients like Shea butter and vitamin E further enhance the comfortable wearing properties. Be worry-free, take this gorgeous pencil and create the prettiest lip – creamy, ready for shine and flirty fun.


MRP: INR 699.00 for 3.94g

Shades Available:

Sensuous Red
Flirtatious Pink
Seductive Tan
Lip Smacking Cherry
Mischievous Wine
Bare Dare Pink
Sizzling Berry
Mysterious Nude



Sinful Orange is a new addition in Colorbar Take Me As I Am Lip Colors..


Its a short chubby pencil with the matching shade color at the ends..it comes with its own sharpener..It is not like normal lip pencils..which are usually drier..this is more of a lipstick in pencil form..remember the Inglot AMC Lip Pencil..see HERE..those are matte and dry..this is creamy.

These Take Me As I am Lip Color Pencils are just like your moisturising lipsticks..they apply with ease..and are very comfy on lips without any dryness or heaviness..they give a glossy finish..which fades away after some time..but the color stays..it stays for a good 5-6 hours..and leaves behind a stain..



Sinful Orange is a bright yellow based orange…its a true sindoori orange..I cannot carry it fully opaque..I did try HERE, it ended up looking way too bright :/ I feel its quite similar to MAC Morange..and fairer and duskier girls..both extremes would rock this shade..I prefer a single swipe or layering/combining it with other shades..

Here is it on me..a single swipe..


Pros:

1. Moisturising and there is no dryness or heaviness.
2. Stay for a good 5-6 hours.
3. These pencils have a cute packaging and easy to carry along for touch ups too.
4. Comes with their own sharpener.
5. There are 9 shades available but there is something for everyone..an orange based red, a nude pink, peachy pink, pale pink, wine ,berry, nude brown, etc..
6. Matching ends to identify the shade in case you have more than one..

Cons:

1. Expensive !
2. Would finish off soon..since it needs to be sharpened and causes wastage too.


Check out the review and swatches of Flirtatious Pink HERE and check out all the swatches HERE


Overall I quite like these Take Me As I Am Lip Colors..a product which works both as a liner and lipstick and stays so well and is moisturising and can be carried along anywhere for touch ups..only this shade Sinful Orange is something I prefer wearing as a stain or combined..I think its a dupe of MAC Morange lipstick..

The shade 002 Flirtatious Pink is a peachy pink with a hint of brown..this shade would suit most of the skin tones..
Here is it on me..

Overall I do love them..a product which works both as a liner and lipstick and stays so well and is moisturising and can be carried along anywhere for touch ups..these sure are good..I only wish these were priced around Rs. 450-500/- coz the Inglot AMC Matte Pencils are also priced at Rs.680/- and these are higher..
In case you want to buy, these are available at Rs. 594/- HERE..swatches coming up soon..
