Colorbar Velvet Matte lipstick Obsessed Orange review and swatches

Remember those Orange lollies we would slurp as kids- yeah the same ones which left ultra bright orange lips -Ah what fun ! Colorbar Velvet Matte Obsessed Orange is like a bold & bright Orange lolly in a tube.

The shade just demands attention and instantly brightens up the face.The lipstick comes in standard Colorbar Velvet matte packaging and has the shade swatch at the base.The formula is not true matte, it has a creamy velvety feel and gives medium to full coverage. The lipstick isn't transfer proof and will leave a trail on your cups & glasses. You do need well exfoliated lips to pull it off.

This shade thankfully unlike rest of the CB velvet matte lipstick doesn't change leave a cheap pink stain on the lips. The wear time is around 3 hours on my lips, it fades with a hint of orange tint on my lips.

Read my review of Colorbar Velvet Matte lipstick Brick-o-la

Price Rs 250/- for 4.2 grams



Hand swatch on NC 45, dusky skin

Here is how it looks on moi :)



Overall Thoughts- Colorbar velvet matte lippies are the best budget matte lipsticks in India at the moment and Obsessed Orange is a gorgeous color, put these two together and you get a sure fire winner.The orange is bold enough and stays true to color and is quite versatile and will suit most Indian skin tones. The shade is so popular that its mostly sold out in most stores and online sites.
If you are tired of your pinks and browns and really want an attention grabbing color this Summer and Monsoon season make sure you grab Obsessed orange, its a must buy shade! Go grab it quick :)
