Colorbar Perfect Match Compact Classic Ivory Review

Ciao girlies! I am sure you would have heard of shopping therapy. I firmly believe in it. When stressed, get a girlfriend and go shopping. During the elite practice of shopping therapy sessions, I bought a whole lot of cosmetics and Colorbar Perfect Match Compact is one of them. Today, I will be reviewing the same. I have mostly used Maybelline and Lakme for long and this was my first experience with Colorbar. When the Colorbar sales girl sold it to me, she stated that it has Vitamin E and gives a fresh look for a very long time. I was tempted and had to go for it. Read on to know if it was a thumbs up or thumbs down for me.

My Experience With Colorbar Perfect Match Compact Classic Ivory:

Colorbar Perfect Match Compact Classic Ivory comes is a mirror finish, circular compact box. I personally believe this is the most attractive and classy compact packaging ever. I can easily carry it around and have received a lot of compliments whenever someone notices it. It comes with a good quality soft puff which spreads and blends the powder perfectly on skin. Of course, there is a mirror inside to check my face while applying it. The compact powder comes in 3 shades namely Warm Beige 003, Nude Beige 002 and Classic Ivory 001. It has a classy fragrance in an extremely subtle way. The powder is weightless and blends in to give a velvety matt finish. It acts as a good concealer and even tones my face.

I have combination skin which can be fairly oily at times depending on the climate. Therefore, I love using powdery products over my day creme. It gives my face a fresh and even toned look. However, it does not provide long time coverage. If I am in air conditioning it stays for about 4 hours but if I am out it barely holds sweat and oil appearing on my face. That is a huge turn off for me and I have to keep applying it on regular intervals. However, I think girls with a dry face could count on it more than people with oily skin. If you are into bike rides, avoid wearing it as after some time you can feel it wear off. I think it is a luxury product and is meant for women who are working or the ones who stay in air conditioned environment.

Diva Likes Rating:

3/5

Final Note:

I think it is a decent product with a high price tag. It works well, but wears of pretty fast. Just for the velvet matt finish experience in an AC office atmosphere; this product can be worth a try.
