MAC Love Forever (P, $18.00) is lighter, more muted. MAC Night Blooming (LE, $16.00) is more shimmery, darker. Buxom Swinger (P, $21.00) is darker, warmer. Bite Beauty Grape (LE, $24.00) is lighter, brighter. Maybelline Electric Pink (P, $7.99) is lighter, brighter, less glossy. ColourPop Pasties (LE, $5.00) is warmer, glossier. ColourPop Buds (P, $6.00) is brighter, less glossy. ColourPop Drive In (P, $6.00) is darker, less glossy. Kat Von D L.U.V. (P, $19.00) is darker, less glossy.

As usual, this post is mostly to provide dupes for those who missed out or didn’t want to shell out the $36 price tag for July’s shade of the month from Bite. (And on the remote possibility that they ever repromote these monthly releases.) It had very nearly opaque color coverage that applied without dragging and went on evenly. The texture was lightly creamy, not too thick or too thin, and sat well on the lips while worn. There was a strong, pink-red stain left behind. It was comfortable to wear as it was lightly hydrating over time, and the color wore well for six hours on me. The consistency is thinner than the Luminous Creme formula, and this particular shade had less sheen as well. I find the Luminous Creme formula to be more hydrating overall.

I do like fuchsia!
Fuchsia is always fun!
How come the lipsticks are sweating and all melty??
It’s not melted, just the residual bits of it sweating, but sweating usually occurs due to greater temperature differences during shipping. It’s normal and doesn’t change the lipstick!
The Bite collection that you reviewed last, the lipsticks were were very sweaty as well. Do they feel softer than previous collections or anything part of the permanent line? Have you noticed sweating on those as well?
Nope, they’re not softer. Bite’s lipsticks actually have a reputation for being more prone to sweating during summer months!
Christine, does it go away one the product is in a moderate and consistent temperature?
The sweat will evaporate/dry down (that’s why you see the outlines of the sweat on the tube).
Bubblegum magenta describes it perfectly, too pink for me , but I’m sure it will look good on others
It will be a nice one for someone for sure!
This is what NARS Dominique looks like on me. :/
That’s so crazy! Dominique is so muted on most. Your natural lip color must really come through, knowing that it is a deeper shade!
Very cool, I like the #007 bit too. I wonder if it likes it’s Martini’s shaken or stirred. I know it 07/2015 but still it made me giggle to compare James Bond to a lipstick.
LOL!
I broke down on my ban. I needed my agave lip mask anyway, lol! I bought this. I have been buying A LOT of stuff this week. My surgery is this Friday and I am super anxious. IDK if I am tying to console myself or saying this will give me something to do as I recover and take the focus off the pain and my shaved head. Just freaking out and worrying. ugh. So, is yours melted? This one is pretty unique for my collection. I do wish It was more opaque though.
I hope everything goes well for you, Nicole! You will be in my thoughts this week and next weekend.
Mine sweated a bit, but it didn’t melt!
Thanks Christine! I’ll take all the thoughts and prayers I can get for sure! I am apologizing in advance if I bug you like nuts with comments during my recovery! lol! Just in time for Fall releases to start. Good timing as far as that goes. I will have some good reading! 🙂
Not to worry 🙂
Thanks for helping the economy 😉 Hope your surgery goes well, and your house repairs are coming along
Haha! That’s a good way to look at it Katherine! House is all fixed up finally. Just replacing lost furniture and appliances now. Of course, the insurance is taking their sweet time with the reimbursement. Thank you. I’m sure it will go fine. Just a bit nervous. 🙂
Ooh, pretty! Looks great on you! My order was delayed.
Thanks, Alice! Hope you gets yours soon!
Such a gorgeous color! But also very easily duped. And probably by better, more hydrating formulas as well. I do really like this shade ( for others ) even though I know I don’t pull off those lighter blue-pinks very well at all, lol!
Yep! I’m really surprised at how few of these offerings have been REALLY unique/special.
Maybe we should send that Temptalia Q&A list to BITE (if you could create any lip color, what would it be? ). Our readers came up with some great colors –that would give BITE some ideas on unique, hard-to-dupe shades!
I have Bite Beauty Violet and Buxom Swinger. Guess I’m covered here.
You are 🙂
Love it! Not sure I can “wear” it .. but I sure do love the color.
Monica.
Love the color, of course. Why are all these pretty shades LE, though. 🙁
I love this color so much! I’m glad I stalked the website and bought it the minute it popped up! It looks great on you, so hopefully it will look just as nice on me!
Pretty! Looks very fresh on you! And the formula sounds lovely.
What a gorgeous pink! I hate Bite jacked up the price for this collection though. I just love this color but I’d rather find a dupe
All the bite beauty lip products I have had always break off after a few uses, or they get so gunky in the packaging, almost like its too creamy.
