Who We Are

Colorbar is one of the leading beauty brands in
India and now across the world.

Inclusivity

The philosophy of our brand is to be gender neutral and celebrate diversity of all those who come in contact with us. We believe that everyone has the birth right to express themselves in their own unique way.

Our cruelty free product range caters to deliver this. We are always in constant search for the best and most innovative products in the world to give the best service and experience to our consumer. We believe that change is the only constant.

Success

It is this way of thinking that has made us the 3rd largest brand in India in a very short span of time.

We have the largest color portfolio to offer the right shade, the right experience and the right products to our consumers. We constantly challenge ourselves and the norms that govern the beauty industry.

The Visionary

Samir Krishan Modi, the visionary Founder and Managing Director of Colorbar Cosmetics, turned his dream into reality by establishing one of the leading names in the cosmetics industry.

Driven by a relentless pursuit of innovation while recognising a gap in the Indian cosmetics market, he ignited a revolution with the birth of Colorbar Cosmetics. More than just a brand, Colorbar embodies his unwavering commitment to excellence and a deep understanding of what makes beauty enthusiasts tick.

Samir's Magic Story

A Harvard alumnus, a state-level boxing champion, an uninhibited art and music aficionado, Samir Krishan Modi ventured beyond the world of business to infuse ‘Samirness’ into the beauty industry, creating a brand that empowers everyone to embrace their inner magic.

As an ardent believer in ‘Meraki’ – leaving a little piece of yourself in everything that you do - he curated a bespoke, engaging and immersive brand while providing empowering and inclusive products for all.

He has built a globally acknowledged beauty brand that offers magical products backed by science and elevates the experience of beauty for all those who interact with the brand.

A Legacy of Self-Expression

He launched Colorbar Cosmetics in 2004 with the goal of bringing magic in everyone’s life. Starting the journey with 16 lipsticks and 16 nail lacquers where he went from store to store to convince the retailers to keep his brand...

Colorbar transcends the traditional role of a makeup brand by empowering users to express their unique identities, as they choose from the widest colour palette of beauty offerings...

How Did the Magic Begin?

He noticed a void in the beauty industry—a lack of innovative and high-quality products. Inspired by his grandfather’s philosophy of creating the best products for the Indian consumer...

Embracing the magic of individuality, championing the right to self-expression and dedicated to crafting the world’s most innovative products, Colorbar aspires to be the best cosmetic brand in the world.

Unleash the Magic Within

Colorbar’s story began with his vision of creating not just a makeup brand, but a gateway to a world of magic and wonder. He believed that while magic cannot be seen or touched, it can be felt.

Colorbar is where ‘beauty for all’ is paramount. It offers the widest range of lip colours where luxury kisses your lips while adding an extra layer of confidence.

Colorbar has nothing but the best to help you stay ahead in the game. If the epicentre of beauty had a face, it would be that of Colorbar.
