As well all know last week I had a bit of a re-beginning affair with lipsticks {here}. However one brand that I didn’t know much about besides the fact that they made beautiful colors was Bite Beauty. This brand caught my eye and has been kicking ass ever since. Offering an array of lip products Bite Beauty’s mission is to create lipstick that is high performance and healthy enough for women to eat. Say what? Eat? Each lipstick contains lip nourishing and restorative anti-oxidants. Each and every single lipstick is created in a small batch that helps preserve the organic oils, fruits and bio actives- Each lipstick contains antioxidants compared to 5 glasses of red wine- AMAZING!!!! Currently exclusive to Sephora only, Bite Beauty is making a huge splash in the beauty world. So without further ado, I introduce you to Bite Beauty…
A lot of lipsticks pass over my pout that never get a second look when something newer and shiner comes through MLL headquarters, but Bite Beauty is just insanely different- in a great way! Standing at my local Sephora this past weekend, starring at the Bite Beauty display I decided to take the plunge. Hearing a bit about them via some Beauty You Tubers and a few bloggers alike, I decided to give in a check the hype out- and let me tell you – It does NOT disappoint. The texture is creamy yet matte, not too drying, not too moist. It’s thick, but not a gloopy thick; and doesn’t feel heavy at all. And the staying power- Ohhhhh Emmmm Geeeeeee- Phenomenal!
I started my Bite Beauty picks with the Bite Beauty Whipped Cherry Lip Scrub –$18 USD, made from antioxidants, fruit acids and super rich in Vitamin C this fruit scrubs helps exfoliate lips and brighten them all while conditioning them – instant love. {It smells like a dream, and beware you might try to sneak a lick or two in}. A quick layer of this on the lips, a light brushing with a soft tooth brush, and tissue off… voila! Lips are ready and primed for my second selections- the highly pigmented colors of Bite Beauty High Pigment Matte Pencils – $24 USD. These pencils or crayons as I like to call them are AH-MAZING!!! They say they are matte, but yet they have a bit of a glossy sheen when applied to the lips. Pigmented in the most beautiful colors, they are to die for! Let’s talk about the staying power. OMG! The staying power in these suckers is super long lasting- I lasted a solid 6 hours with eating and drinking in between before a slight touch up.
A slight reminder of a hybrid blend of NARS Matte Lip Pencils, Hourglass Opaque Rouge Liquid Lipsticks mixed with Tarte LipSurgence Lip Stains if they were to have a baby.
I picked up the shades:Honey Berry and Rhubarb. I am IN love with the two shades I selected. Honey Berry is a toasted almond beige shade that is a perfect night out nude mixed with just the perfect amount of pink to it. A bit close to MAC Velvet Teddy but a slight less rosy pink to it. Rhubarbis a plum rose shade that is just gorgeous on the lips. A mix of MAC Patisserie and MAC Kinda Sexy, this shade is a sophisticated nude-ish rose that can take you from day to night with a wisp of buildable color for a darker feel. I am obsessed with these pencils and cannot wait to grab a few more. I have my eye a few additions for when we can start whipping out fall colors: Amarone- a deep berry color, Bramble- a gorgeous current shade, and Tannin- a deep red. Needless to say Bite Beauty has done a phenomenal job with their good for you to eat lipsticks and formulas. Available exclusively to Sephora or Sephora.com; this might just be the beginning of a long time love affair with Bite Beauty– I have my eyes on you- Cashmere Lip Crèmes and Luminous Crème Lipsticks!!
Have you tried Bite Beauty yet? What are some of your favorites? I would love to hear…

I love these lip pencils. I have Tannin and Bramble and you are right, they do not disappoint. Beautiful colors that go on like velvet, feel great and last. The only problem with these pencils is that there are so many amazing pencils that I want more colors to add to my ever growing stash, whether I need a new color or not.

Kat I couldn’t agree with you more. These pencils are phenomenal. Every time I hit Sephora I always find myself leaving with one. Lol… I mean what more could you want: awesome color, decent staying power and all the great benefits with the antioxidants. Ultra score!!!
