COLORBAR RADIANT GLOW FACE ILLUMINATOR PEN


Hey ladies just want to introduce you to an interesting product called COLORBAR RADIANT GLOW FACE ILLUMINATOR PEN 

This nifty product is a face illuminator which can be mixed with your foundation to give a subtle shimmering luminescent glow, I have used this product coupled with concealer to hide dark circles under eyes as well.

What the company says about this illuminating pen-

"Banish the dull and tired look forever with the Radiant Glow Face Illuminator. A one of a kind product in India, this face highlighter gives the complexion a vibrant and perky look. The Radiant Glow Face Illuminator enhances makeup and brightens the complexion, giving the face a natural glow."

The packaging of this illuminating pen reminds me of YSL touche Eclat. It has a sleek silver packaging with brush applicator. You have to press the button at the end of the pen 2-3 times to get the illuminating liquid from the tube to the brush.There is only one shade available called 'Glamour' & this illumintor pen costs Rs 425/-.

The good things about this product is- it works well if want to get subtle glow (not the shiny disco ball look),it blends well into the skin, no streaking or creasing or dryness after application.A little product goes a long way.You will definitely enjoy this for evening / party / wedding looks.

Now the cons- It comes in only one shade , plus the push button often requires 5-6 clicks to dispense the product and most importantly this is not something I'd use on an everyday basis. This will be reserved only for the days when I have time at my hand a big party to attend. All in all a good product to have in your makeup arsenal.

Do check out swatches below & let me know what you think. xo xo

    Hi Divya- This illuminator pen can be used to highlight your nose, but unless you are doing full fledged contouring slimming the nose with only highlighter pen wouldn't work.

    Manali- One would need a concealer stick much darker than your natural skin tone/ dark brown eyeshadow shade to do contouring plus a light highlighter shade. Contouring can look too harsh / un-natural if not blended very well. Hope that helps :)
