Hey everyone,

If you are a consistent reader of my blog, you would be aware of my obsession of lipsticks. Whenever I think about purchasing some new cosmetics products, can’t resist myself picking some new lipstick. Some shades like nude, red, coral and pink are always in my wishlist even if I already have several of them in my collection. I know this is is not a good sign, but hey no one’s perfect! Anyway now coming to my today’s review, you got it right…I’m with another lipstick which I bought a few months ago. This is Colorbar Take Me as I am Lip Color. The shade ‘Expressive Peach was the one which snaps my mind when I was going through the shades. Let’s begin the review now…

What company says…

Our Take Me As I Am Lipstick was designed with the modern woman in mind, someone who is always on the go and looks good while doing so. This multi-function lip color provides the ease of a jumbo crayon with the rich, deep hues and coverage of a lipstick. It’s creamy and soft giving you all day coverage that will last no matter what life throws at you. With moisturizing and nourishing properties paired with a convenient design, this will be the most comfortable lipstick you will ever wear!

In the mirror of my own experience

The lipstick comes in a silver cardboard box, inside the box, we find the product along with a sharpener ( Sorry, I couldn’t take pictures) which is quite useful. The lipstick comes in a fat pencil shape with a cap. The color showed on the bottom of the pencil as you can see it in pictures. One can carry it out without any problem as the cap closes tightly. The only thing you have to remember is that always close the cap carefully without damaging the tip.

Color Expressive Peach is bright orangish coral shade. The shade is beautiful and perfect for medium to fair skin tones. It’s slightly bold color but by applying lightly you can carry this shade easily. The texture of the lipstick is creamy and smooth. It applies smoothly on the lips without tugging. This is so highly pigmented and provide the right color in one swipe. I apply just one swipe with a light hand and I love how the shade comes out on my lips. It’s creamy so you don’t need to apply a lip balm before wearing it.

The staying power of this lipstick is also strong. It stays for about 5-6 hours on my lips. After that, it begins to fade away but never leaves patches on the lips.

The finish it provides is alluring, you can wear it both day and night. For night occasions, two swipe will give a glamorous touch to your makeup.

Finally…

I love the lipstick, the shade is superb and the lasting power is good. You need some brightness on your lips in these dull and gloomy days of Monsoon. In winter, it will be also a good option. The only issue with this product is the sharpening part. I hate to sharpen my lip colors but you can ignore this part when you find the pleasing effect after applying this lipstick. I will recommend it to those who love wearing slightly darker shades. You can choose some light shades also from the range as Colorbar Take Me As I Am has a variety of beautiful shades.
