Verdict:
Colorbar Perfect Match Primer is
one of the first primers available in Indian market. It was cheap and easily
available. So everybody used to choose or suggest this primer. At that time
dupes were made of this primer that had the same packaging and texture. Let’s
see how this primer is working for me compared to new primers.
When I started using this primer,
I did not even know the function of primer. Just that it was supposed go on
your face before foundation.
This primer is an oil-free
primer. My skin has some dry patches and some oily patches. So it suited my
skin type.
It is enriched with Vitamin E
that moisturizes skin and boost antioxidants production.
It claims to create a smooth
canvas for makeup application. I did not see much of a difference in my skin
texture after using the primer. A very small quantity required.
It masks fine lines and small
pores but does nothing with redness. For people with large pores this primer
does not work.
It feels heavy on the skin like
you are wearing something on your face. The texture of this primer is very
silicony. People with sensitive skin might broke out after using this primer.
It is non-comedogenic that means
it does not block pores. It is gentle for all skin types as it is
dermatologically tested.
It is free from parabens,
allergens, fragrances. It is a cruelty free product.
It gives a matte effect. I did
not see any noticeable difference in staying power of makeup after using this
primer.
Though the nozzle packaging gives
adequate amount product (neither more nor less). After sometime, it is
difficult to dispense primer because of the packaging.
So, this primer is a decent
primer that worked for me, when I was new to the makeup world. Now all the
different variants of primer are available in the market which has other
benefits such as redness control, moisturizing etc. and compared to other
drugstore primer this is expensive. But it is always going to be close to my
heart as my first primer
Colorbar Perfect Match Primer
does a decent job as a primer and is easily available in the market.
