Okay, so my birthday was in July and I'm just getting around to sharing the swatches of these three months later. I lost a bit of review time when my main camera's battery wasn't charging. Now, we're back in the swatching game! Of course, if you haven't celebrated your birthday yet, then I'm right on time.
Sephora's Beauty Insider program is free to sign up for and you get a free birthday gift every year. Honestly, last year's Tarte set is still one of my favorites and I use the Paaarty blush constantly. This year offers you a choice between a GLAMGLOW set, this Bite Beauty set, or if you`re top level VIB or Rouge, you can opt to get 250 points in your account instead. You can get these gifts without a purchase in store or you can add it to your cart during an online order (like I did).
I opted for the Bite Beauty lipstick set with Chai and Glace. I have a lot of skincare that I am trying to get through and I just can't say no to a lipstick, especially Bite Beauty as they are one of my fave brands. Both Chai and Glace are a part of Bite Beauty's permanent collection. The set also came with a mini sample of their Agave Lip Balm and Agave Sugar Lip Scrub that I have not included in the post below. Here are my swatches!
Described as a mauve brown and comes in both the Amuse Bouche Lipstick (pictured) and the Amuse Bouche Liquified Lipstick (one of my personal fave liquid formulas). I don't really see mauve, brown, or mauve brown. What I see on me is straight up pumpkin spice and I'm here for it. Talk about a perfect shade for fall. If you're afraid to rock red lips, I think this will be a good shade to ease you into them. My only complaint is this feathers like crazy, so a lip liner is necessary.
Glace
Described as a dusty mauve and comes in only the Matte Creme Lip Crayon. Another color perfect for cooler weather. It's strange because it looks verrrry different in various lights. I don't like it on me in some and like it on me in others. It's kind of bizarre. When it's in the type of light below, I love it! No issues with application or feathering with this one. Goes on like a dream and I love the pointed tip for precision.
