I’m a little late to the October party, but I finally got around to trying out Bite Beauty’s limited edition shade of the month – Kir Royale – today. I wore it as a subtle gradient lip by shading in the very corners of my mouth with MAC’s lip liner in Nightmoth and blending inwards with a lip brush.

I love the colour but more importantly I found the formula to be excellent. So many lipsticks make my lips dry and peeling, but Bite Beauty’s Luminous Creme Lipsticks are a non-drying, long-wearing dream come true. Guess I’ll be adding a few of these to my Christmas list! Their Mix and Mingle duos are an especially good value for someone like me who rarely ever finishes lipsticks but likes variety.

Face: Make Up For Ever HD Foundation, Cle de Peau Concealer, YSL Touche Éclat Radiant Touch
Too Faced Primed and Poreless Loose Powder

Cheeks: Marc Jacobs Instamarc, Milani Baked Blush in Bella Rosa
Eyes: Self-made Burgundy eyeshadow (MAC Cranberry is similar), Bobbi Brown eyeshadow in Cement, MAC eyeshadows in Haux and Beauty Marked, The Balm Mary Lou-Manizer (inner corner), MAC Fluidline in Blacktrack, Maybelline The Colossal Cat Eye Mascara
Brows: MAC eyeshadow in Mystery // Lips: Bite Beauty Luminous Creme Lipstick in Kir Royale, MAC Lip Pencil in Nightmoth

    I still haven’t tried Bite’s lipsticks. They always looks so amazing. I’ll probably get their holiday duo’s! I’m the same I never go through my lipsticks! I wish they sold everything in miniature just so I know I wouldn’t waste half of my products! Lovely look, love the ombre.

      The recent Sephora 250 point perk was a miniature, and I think the holiday duos are smaller than regular ones as well? I’m thinking about picking up a couple of those for sure…though just as you mentioned, I’m guilty of never finishing lipstick ever!
