Bite High Pigment Matte Pencil Swatches and Review

Another Bite product!  This time I am trying out the High Pigment Matte Pencil.  This is a lip pencil that gives a long lasting matte color.  I am loving all these lip pencils, so easy and portable for spring and summer.  This Bite product, like all contain resveratrol, an antioxidant.  Price is $24 USD.


The lip pencils come in 6 shades, and I am reviewing Bouquet (a peachy-pink) and Velvet (a vibrant rose pink).

I didn't realize the two colors would be the close in color to each other.  These is a definite peach tone to Bouquet compared to Velvet.  Bite products are sold online only, so it hard to tell exactly what color. (Thank you Sephora for your amazing return policy!)

The pencil glides on so smooth and stays on.  My lips never felt dry while wearing, but didn't feel sticky or greasy either!  The pencil tip is smaller, so it allows for a more precision application.  The color just twists up from the bottom - so no sharpener required.

The color is matte and the color of the pencil is pretty much the same color as it applied on my lips.  I think Bouquet looked better for my skin tone, as Velvet was a little too pink and has a blue base to it.  Bouquet is great for a light peachy lip.  This is a low-maintance lip color, so I recommend for spring and summer!  Another great product from Bite - just wish they would release more colors.

Bite Beauty Lip Products - Luminous Crème Lipstick Swatches and Review

I could not wait until Sephora shipped my most recent order.  Ever since I've seen Bite products on their website I have been dying to try them.  Bite is a new brand and so far all products are for lips.  What makes them unique is the super antioxidant, resveratrol, is in their formula.  Read more about resveratrol and it's benefits here.

From Sephora's Website:

"This product is free of synthetics, polybutenes, and petroleum byproducts and made exclusively with lip nurturing food-grade ingredients that are healthy enough to eat.  Each lipstick contains the amount of resveratrol found in five glasses of red wine."

Sounds amazing!  First product I am reviewing is their Luminous Crème Lipstick.  This retails for $24 USD.  Their are tons of colors to pick from, but today I am reviewing Shiraz (Soft Plum) and Vouvray (Ballet Pink).

Please excuse my blotchy skin, I am having issues!

Overall, these lipsticks are great!  The formula is creamy and the pigment is full coverage.  The lipstick was really smooth and moisturizing.  My favorite is Vouvray -  It really is 'Ballet Pink' and it doesn't wash you out or look chalky.  Shiraz is a soft plum that is very buildable. There are tons of shades available and I can't wait to try more.
