Product Description
Take me as I am lip color is a unique multi functional 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.
Packaging
Colorbar Take Me As I Am Lip Colors are jumbo wooden lip pencils that come with a black plastic cap. It has a color coded bottom which eases identification and the shade name is clearly mentioned on it. It comes with a complimentary sharpener hence you do not need to spend additional money on it. I love how I can easily line my lips as well as fill them in with this. However, since the pencil needs to be sharpened, it leads to product wastage and considering the price thats a real ouchie.
Shade
From the new shades of Colorbar Take Me As I Am Lip Pencil, I got the shade Peachy Pink which is a bright orange lip color with a red undertone. I wear it whenever I’m not in the mood to wear makeup and opt for bold lips with a bare face. It instantly brightens up my face and surely draws attention. Might not be that popular for winters but it is absolutely perfect for summers!
Texture
Colorbar Take Me As I Am Lip Colors have a smooth and creamy texture which does not tug or pull. It applies evenly and settles into a creamy matte finish which is quite comfortable to wear. The lip color does feel a little drying after say 5 hours but nothing too uncomfortable. The only issue is that it tends to accentuate the lip lines hence prior scrubbing is required.
Pigmentation
Colorbar Peachy Pink Lip Pencil is highly pigmented and a single swipe gives an amazing color pay off. This is one of the best things about the range as all the lip colors are extremely pigmented, even the lighter ones and provide an opaque coverage.
Staying Power
Being highly pigmented with a matte finish, the Colorbar Take Me As I Am Lip Colors are very long lasting. Peachy Pink in particular lasts for 6 hours at a stretch though it does get patchy incase I have a full meal. The color survives snacks and drinks and leaves a strong tint behind which needs to be removed with a makeup remover.
Worth the money?
Alright, whats with the price hike? 900 bucks for a lip pencil that needs to be sharpened? Like woah! Yes the quality is top notch and I don’t really have any complaints with it but the price hurts too much and it will be a deterrent for many.

HBM Rating
HBM Recommendation: Colorbar Take Me As I Am Lip Color in Peachy Pink is a vibrant and bold orange with a red undertone. Its a must have for bold lip lovers and the great pigmentation with the comfortable finish make it one of my favorite lip colors. However, the price is quite on the higher side and is the only thing keeping me away from giving it a perfect rating
