This is the last and final shade of Bite Beauty’s year-long limited edition lipstick releases. It’s currently sold out, but maybe we’ll get lucky and get another restock (all the other shades are currently available). The Creme Deluxe formula is described as hydrating and pigmented, though I don’t notice much of a quality difference compared to this formula and their standard (and cheaper) Luminous Creme formula other than in finish (the latter is glossier and a little thicker as a result). December’s shade had mostly opaque color payoff with a smooth, lightly creamy texture that applied color evenly and was comfortable to wear. It lasted for six hours on me and left behind a slight stain, while the formula was lightly hydrating.

I guess I’m having trouble with the new design of the website, I can’t find the info about what eye shadow you are wearing. At any rate, the look is gorgeous and I’m glad I ordered this one!
It’s not the design’s fault – it’s yours truly being a total idiot per usual and I forgot to include it. My deepest apologies – it should be there now. Again, I’m SO sorry!
Actually, how do you look up what makeup you are wearing in these shots i.e. your eyeshadow. I have no clue. Thanks!
It’s in the sidebar under “The Makeup Look” or underneath the post itself if you do not see a sidebar.
Pretty but dupable!
It is a pretty one!
Yeah! I snagged this one and have been waiting for your review to open it because I feel bad returning used things (unless they are just really bad). It’s pretty! I’d like to see something lighter from this line. I’m coming up with too many reds and deep shades!
Have you looked into their regular line-up? I think that has some lighter options 🙂 I wonder if Bite will do this again next year.
Gorgeous! Love the color and love the finish.
Yay!
It’s pretty and very festive, but dupe-able. For 2016, I hope they come out with some more unique colors, maybe some glosses or lippies in Panetone colors.
Have they said they are going to do it again?
I haven’t heard anything yet, but I bet they will continue. The lipsticks are selling out every month, and it’s a way to keep BITE on people’s radar every month. I would love to see them come out with some more unique shades, like another BITE Opal , or take another stab at pastel glosses.
Bite could not seemingly have enough stock at Sephora to fulfill orders on the LE monthly offer which resulted in two of my big Sephora orders being cancelled post facto, but managed to pull together every single shade to sell as a set or individually for Christmas. So NO!
I’m still surprised they restocked all the shades :/
Looks comparable to Revlon Cherries in the Snow.
That is good to know!
This is right up my street! Gorgeous. ?
Nice! 😀
This last and final one of this year is a beauty! But I’m currently saving my dough for the Ellie Goulding collection instead. Plus, I already have Kir Royale which is 85% similar, and UD Catfight is a gorgeous pink-red that I need to remember to use more often!
If you mixed the two, I bet it’d be 95% similar 😉
Thanks for that tip! I’m going to try that out because I believe it would work. Way back, I used to make my own customized lip colors by mixing, time to revisit!
I love the color but can’t decide if I should keep it. On me it looks just like Urban Decay’s Catfight, which is way cheaper! Decisions…
If Catfight looks the same on you, I’d just keep that 🙂
Hmmm, so now the question is if it comes back in stock is do I feel it’s too similar to Bite Kir Royale to justify the cost! I love it though!
They do have a similar vibe!
Dang, that’s a pretty shade! I love colors like this that could go either pink or red.
Me too! The pink is strong in this one!
Swoon, am in love! I love the pinky-red. I have Clinique Cherry Pop and #009 but this is the perfect pink-red, none of the dupes match this closely enough for me. Very tempted to get this if it’s sold again!
Hope they restock!
I can’t wear this color but it looks very pretty to me!
It’s quite festive!
It looks so rich and Lush on you Chritine 🙂 totally loving this shade
Thank you, Rashmi!
