Colorbar Definer Lip Liner 001 Clear Red , Rs 550, available at medplusbeautyColorbar Definer Lip Liner comes in 6 shades, Clear Red, Rosy Red, Berry Rose, Summer Pink, True Mauve and Creamy Nude.
Packaging – Colorbar Definer lip liner looks longer than the usual lip pencils because of its unusually long cap which has a sharpener fixed in it. The cap closes tightly and due to inbuilt sharpener this lip definers are absolutely travel friendly !Shade – 001 Clear Red is a True Red shade. I found the other shades either dull or too light for my liking. Since I have so many red lipsticks I though this shade would be of good use.
Texture & formula – I don’t generally prefer using lip liners as a base since they rarely come in a moisturizing formula , and there is no point accentuating wrinkles on lips by using them. When I swatched this lip definer in store I found the formula on a creamier side. While applying/ outlining lips, it doesn’t tug or pulls, formula is really smooth. I filled my lips with it , though it doesn’t feel uncomfortably dry on lips but yes if you are planning to wear it alone, do not forget to exfoliate lips beforehand as It tends to highlight flaky chapped areas on lips !Pigmentation – I must say that this lip definer is superbly pigmented !! One swipe is all you need .. I do not have to keep on going back to get a neat outline, it glides on like butter and does the work in half time ! Due to its superb pigmentation I believe this products is going to last long !
Staying Power – I don’t really expect much from a lip liner or a gloss when it comes to stay longer on lips, but let me tell you Clear Red stays on my lips for more than 5 hours with little fading from middle. It doesn’t look flat matte and has a satiny finish !Overall Thoughts
A great product with buttery smooth texture ! I liked the packaging, cap with inbuilt sharpener is all we need for travelling ! Though price can be a deal breaker since people who don’t care much about the formula of lip liner can easily find cheaper alternatives (NYX, Faces etc). Also I would love to see more shades in this range .

I like the description of the product and I like the shade too. Best thing about the product is that it stays on lips for more than five hours. I would definitely go for this product. Thank you for sharing.
