Bite Beauty Confection / Marmalade Luminous Creme Lipstick Duo Review, Photos, Swatches
Bite Beauty Confection/Marmalade Luminous Creme Lipstick Duo
Bite Beauty Confection/Marmalade Luminous Creme Lipstick Duo ($14.00 for 0.10 oz.) consists of a bright, pop of fuchsia pink paired with a warmer, medium orange. It’s another good set of shades that performs well and lives up to its claims! Bite’s Luminous Creme formula is very consistent for me, so I’m happy to see it is equally consistent in their mini duos.
Confection is a pop of medium pink with cool, blue undertones and a satin finish. There’s a slightly muted quality to the color, which makes it appear softer compared to its more neon cousins. The texture was light-medium in weight, creamy enough to glide on, but it wasn’t as emollient as other shades in the range, and I found it a little less hydrating overall but it was still somewhat moisturizing. This shade wore well for four and a half hours. Wet 'n' Wild Nouveau Pink (P, $0.99) is darker (95% similar). Givenchy Rose Perfecto (209) (P, $36.00) is lighter (95% similar).

Marmalade is a bright, medium-dark orange with warm, red undertones and a natural sheen. It was intensely pigmented with a smooth, creamy consistency that was comfortable to wear and applied beautifully. The color wore well for five hours and was nicely hydrating over time.

So pretty (although I doubt I’d use Marmalade – just not a good shade for me). To be truthful, I had 2 of the Bite duos and while I loved the shades, they made the OCD side of me completely crazy…I mean how do you put them in shade order?! I know, I totally have issues and, yes, I gave them away to stop the madness! *wink*
lol! That is an interesting point you bring up 😉
These look like a summer combo! I’m gonna try to snag them! 🙂
They are perfect for summer!
I like Marmalade on you !
Thanks, Katherine!
What a fun combo!
It is!
Marmalade is awesomeness on you!!! And especially so with how you paired your eye look and the entire face look! Kind of how I was wearing my MAC Morange last summer, everything just clicks perfectly.
But Confection, while gorgeous on you, is one of those shades I almost never wear even though I do similar shades. Sometimes neon fuschia-pinks make me appear GREEN-ish?!? That’s why my Pink Pigeon goes neglected!
Thank you, Nancy! 🙂
Gosh, this will make a great summer duo!
It would!
I kept looking at swatches of all of Bite’s lipstick duos, desperately hoping to find one where both colors would work well for me. It didn’t happen. =( Maybe next year…
Aww 🙁
Holy cow, I need this in my life!
Enjoy, Alicia!
What a fun combination. Very pretty.
It is! Perfect for summer 🙂
I love these little dual ended lipsticks from them. I have every single one! I own a lot of different lipsticks, but Bite is always my fave.
Awesome! I think the duos are such a great way to try BB as well as get a bunch of new colors.
So gorg!!
They are!
So glad I picked up all these last month! 🙂
Woohoo! Which duo is your favorite, Bonnie?
