This has to be one of my favorites of the Bite lipstick collection I have. It seems like it will be a little sheer like most of the others, but it actually goes on quite opaque and is a lovely slightly deepened red. Nice!

Pow! What a color! Nice and vivid, if just a bit more sheer than I'd like (as are most Bite lipsticks). The lipstick was quite soft and slippery, so applying with a brush was a little difficult. That's the problem with lip pallets: unlike with bullets, you can't do a final once-over rubbing the lipstick directly on your lips. Oh well, still happy with this amazing vivid color! Poppy pops! (Sorry, couldn't help myself)

Kat Von D Foiled Love Lipstick: Beranice

The lowdown

I like the color, a nice, bright, shiny red. It looks fine on me, although it would probably look better if it were a bit warmer. I found I needed less of this lipstick to create a completely opaque lip, unlike some of the other Kat Von D lipsticks. It could be that the shininess of the lipstick reflects enough light that the lipstick appears to give full coverage with light applications, but hey, I'm not complaining!

The look 

I blocked Beranice with Valentine, a bright sparkly pink by Kat Von D which you'll see on my top lip.

It is obviously a very subtle block, one that most wouldn't notice unless close enough to see the glitter.

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

Rosary
Lolita
Underage Red
Forever & Never

Kat Von D Painted Love Lipstick: Underage Red

Like many of the Kat Von D lipsticks, I found this one difficult to apply to a level of opacity that I liked. I could see that the brush often removed lipstick as I tried to apply more.That said, what a bangin' color! I absolutely love the strength of this red.

The look

I created an ombre look from bottom to top with Underage Red and another Kat Von D color, Forever & Never.

Red-Orange-Yellow Ombre

 Today I did a subtle ombre lip from red to yellow. I lined my lips with a brick red, then filled them in with bright orange and finally blended yellow into the inner parts. What I love about going from a dark to a light color is that it makes my lips look full and pouty without using a stingy lip plumper.
