Bite Beauty Luminous Crème Lipstick: Rosé

The lowdown

Rosé is a bit bubblegummy on the lip for my taste (and also for the actual color of the its namesake, I think), and it is also on the sheer side. That said, I have a soft spot for peachy tones, and even though my lip color, visible through the lipstick, cools those tones a bit, there are traces that I still like. It feels really nice and moisturizing on the lip, and is quite light and pretty non-sticky. A pretty solid lipstick!

Rock a loud lip!

The lowdown

While I am not generally a super pinky sort of person and I find the bubblegumminess of this lip to be a bit unflattering on me, I like this lip okay. The lipstick is very light on the lip and I found it especially non-sticky, always a plus. Again, as with many Bite Beauty lipsticks, it is not a super opaque color, so my lip color peeks through, but it's nothing a good liner wouldn't fix. I generally prefer not to line, however, and search out lipsticks with a bit more heft.

Rock a loud lip!

I love this color! It's very sweet, almost as sweet as the taste of the lipstick itself, which I got a little hint of while applying... mmmmm =) According to Bite Beauty, this lipstick is "healthy enough to eat", but they forgot to mention delicious!

That said, as with other Bite products I've tried, this lipstick is quite slick and a bit thin. Up close my very pigmented lip color shows right through, but at a distance they take on a luminous, light bubblegum tone that I quite like.

Rock a loud lip =)

Obsessive Compulsive Cosmetics (OCC) Lip Tar: Melange

The lowdown

Super matte, super light on the lip... the consistency is perfect! I felt the application was a little splotchy on my super-pigmented lips, but overall a great color and a great feel. I find the lip tars a little drying, even with a primer, so after a few hours I like to apply a little chapstick over them and that seems to work great. 

The look

I blended Melange with OCC's Grandma to give a more forceful color. It darkened up a bit, became less chalky and took on more of a coral hue; beautiful!

Kat Von D Foiled Love Lipstick: Valentine

Sephora's description: metallic hot pink

The lowdown

Of all the Kat Von D lipsticks I've tried so far, this was the sheerest. I suppose the point of this color is not so much opacity as it is glitter, and I have to say, while the color is fine and I do enjoy a bit of shine, I am not a glitter-in-my-lipstick person. 

The look

I created a subtle block with Valentine on the bottom lip and Kat Von D's Lolita on the top. The colors are similar, although Lolita supplies more of a coral tinge while Valentine is a cooler magenta with a foiled shine and all those little sparkles.

This lipstick is part of the Kat Von D Star Kissed Lipstick Set available at Sephora. The other colors are:

Rosary

Lolita

Underage Red

Beranice

Forever & Never

Rock that loud lip!
