We appreciate enthusiasm for new releases but ask readers to please hold questions regarding if/when a review will be posted as we can't commit to or guarantee product reviews. We don't want to set expectations and then disappoint readers as even products that are swatched don't always end up being reviewed due to time constraints and changes in priorities! Thank you for understanding!

Thank you for this!! I’ve been sitting with this shade in my Sephora cart wondering how similar it is to some of the other shades I already own.
Wow, Lady Ruba is an exact dupe!
I think I may stop buying these. I have two of the dupes for the monthly $36 release I just bought. I think it’s slightly lighter and I like it. Its a nice lipstick. But, like you said before they are obviously dupable. I missed out on the one shade that I can’t dupe when Sephora accidentally released it early to some people. Yeah, I’m only going to buy them if they look super unique when you post the preview. I feel like they should be more unique for that price.
Whew! I have and love Lady Danger and the MAC formula wears so much better than the BITE LE – those oh-so-exclusive babies smear and feather like nobody’s business, so I’m glad I have the dupe for this one – pretty as it is.
Considering that I have 2 of these dupes, MAC Lady Danger & Morange, I suppose I must really love reddy-orange and orange-red lipstick more than I thought! I also have Maybelline Rose Rush, too (similar tone, I think) . Thanks for this list as it’s very helpful!
I feel like Bite really missed an opportunity to make an amazing, unique and covetable product with these LE releases and they blew it. I haven’t even been tempted to buy them, the colors are such a snore. The frozen berries collection, however, looked awesome! I missed out on the Barberry lipstick (it was sold out when I went to buy it) and I’m super bummed about it. Now that color was amazing and unique, and I wish I’d snapped it up right away.
The dupe feature on your website is so awesome –it’s saved me so much money and time, don’t have to go through my stash, swiping stuff, trying to figure out if it’s a dupe or not
