Chambor SMOOTH ON liquid eyliner review and swatches

hello everyone...
My post today will be a review of one of the most amazing liquid eyeliners I have used......
I have used many of them, actually,Revlon,maybelline ,and Lakme of course.I had also used the hard tip ones...but am not comfortable with those...(hard tip ones)...am paranoid about them poking my eye....(that has happened,so maybe I was justified in being paranoid).

I wanted a good smooth eyeliner,which was glossy...hmmmm..but not too glossy and long lasting and something which was darkkkkk darkkk darkkkk....
And I found that....
THE CHAMBOR SMOOTH ON EYELINER
here's what the website says:

SMOOTHON EYELINER

High-performance liquid eyeliner: it is characterised by immediate colour release.

  • It draws a full, long lasting stroke and guarantees good application control.
  • The formulation incorporates fast-drying acrylic polymers that produce a continuous, persistent film.
  • The product fixes perfectly to the skin, without smudging.
  • These special additives, with water-resistant properties, help the pigment last for hours, even when it comes into contact with water.
  • The finish is bright, intense and characterised by high coverage.
It is available in 4 shades 

black
mauve
blue 
green


I have the black one
Price Rs 395 INR.






My experience:
What I loved:
  1. I have been using this almost everyday since at least a 2 weeksesp for work.
  2. It glides on smoothly.
  3. Its neither runny nor clumpy....its a little gel like  ...more viscious than other liquid liners I have used.
  4. The brush is such that  you can draw lines of different thickess with it easily...
  5. it is a dark dark black.the pigmentation is intense but not too glossy.
  6. It stays really long.
  7. Smudge proof ,unless you are planning to rub your eyes like reallyyyyyy hard.
  8. Not water proof.,on washing with water .comes off easily without tugging at the  lids.
  9. No irritation to the eyes.
  10. No feathering,flaking.
What I did not love.....
Nothingg actually..i loved all....


Wil I buy it again
Yes...when this gets over....I was thinking of getting MAc fluidline...but its not so dark and my lids are super pigmented.....so i need blackest black to show on them.....


have you used this???

CHAMBOR BRIGHTENING SMOOTHENING FOUNDATION WET AND DRY

Hey ladies,
Am back after a long break and am going to be reviewing  the Chambor Foundation wet and dry,which I had purchased around 20 days ago!
Summers a re here and in <Mumbai,,,are they BAD!!! I was finding my MAC satinfinish  a tad too heavy and shiny for the day....So went to buy a compact .At The chambor counter ended up seeing this product and loving it..Tried it and loved it.......
Here is a look
the product is yellower than this in real life!!!!!Looks very pinkish here!!r




What the company claims:
Velvety rich powder foundation which gives a the skin a sophisticated look.
Its a Foundation with Whitening action & finish. 
Its main USP is the Dual Usage .
dry sponge for moist & natural finish and wet sponge for matte & covering finish
  • Enriched with Vitamin A, C, E & SPF 12
  • Imparts whitening action
  • Helps reduce wrinkles and improve skin texture
  • Natural Make up
  • Has soft application feel
  • Water resistant � Long Lasting
  • Non Comedogenic
  • No animal ingredients
  • Dermatologist & Ophthalmologist Tested
  • Shades available 
  1. dual cashew101
  2. Dual walnut 103
there is a  no 102 also which was not available with my SA so don't know the name. :(
 
Made My Wallet Lighter By: 925 INR for 15 gm of product
The product: It comes in a rectangular  navy blue box which opens to reveal the powder foundation in a compartment with the sponge in the adjacent one.There is a mirror in the lid( which I LOVEEEEEEEEE)...
 I brought the shade Walnut 103 , the cashew looked too white on me although it would look lovely on fairer skin tones.

USAGE:
  • The powder foundation can be used dry for a sheer natural look.When I did that the coverage was minimal but it had good oil control.

  • I also used it over my MAC satinfinish and was amazed by the shine control(without too much of a matte look),oil control and the pretty semi matte finish I got>It was amazing
  • I also tried it by moistening the sponge a bit .The application then goes on thick and gives decent coverage,but it makes the face look very matte and chalky
SO I now use it only as  dry powder either over my moisturizer and primer , or over my satinfiish foundation.

LASTING POWER
This is an amazing product in terms of lasting.When used dry alone or with MAC satinfinish it makes my makeup stay on for at least 8-10 hours in the sweltering heat of mumbai....lovve it.....

What I Love
  • the shade suits my complexion to the T.Am a nc 42-43 in MAC.
  • It is long lasting
  • No fragrance
  • Love the mirror
  • Can be used alone as well as a compact over foundation.( I use it both ways)
  • small effective sponge comes along with the powder.
  • Can also be appiled as a loose powder with a brush.
  • very compact and travel friendly.
What I don't Love
  • When used without a moisturizer it does look chalky.So for those with very dry skin, a lot of moisturizer may be needed or they might have to use it as a wet foundation.
  • limited shades.
  • Pricey!!!!
  • Also if used with a heavy hand may look OTT.

Will I repurchase :::YES!!!!
RATING:5/5 from me.....Yes  I do love it....


Do you guys have this product????? If not try it out.....Its good!!!!!
