Enoki

Bite Beauty Enoki Amuse Bouche Lipstick ($26.00 for 0.15 oz.) is a light, peachy brown with warmer, yellow undertones and a satin finish. The color coverage was fully opaque in one pass, while the lipstick had a smooth, lightweight texture that applied without dragging or skipping on the lip. It did not have too much slip, though, so it adhered well and did not slide around. I noticed a bit of color that sunk into my lip lines after two hours of wear, while the total wear time was closer to four and a half hours.

The Amuse Bouche formula is supposed to have a “soft texture” with “extreme moisture” and “bold, creamy” color. It’s a denser, very pigmented formula that is lightly to moderately hydrating, lasts four to six hours (on average), and applies evenly with a lightweight texture that has a creamy look but doesn’t slide around easily. The formula is citrus-scented.

Formula Overview

$26.00/0.15 oz. - $173.33 Per Ounce

Bite Beauty Amuse Bouche Lipstick ($26.00 for 0.15 oz.) is supposed to have “bold, creamy color” with “extreme moisture, soft texture, and creamy wear.” The majority of the range is very pigmented–typically opaque with one pass–with a few shades being semi-opaque but usually buildable.

The consistency is very lightly creamy to lightly creamy with some shades requiring light-medium pressure and can pull the lip a bit when gliding it across the lips, though the color doesn’t appear ragged and the bullet itself doesn’t feel stiff (while other shades applied without tugging, so check individual shade reviews!) The majority of the shades I’ve tested have been lightly hydrating to non-drying and fairly comfortable to wear for the long-haul. They have a herbal, lemony scent but no discernible taste. They wear longer than average, from four to eight hours, depending on the intensity and propensity of the shade to stain.

Porcini

Bite Beauty Porcini Amuse Bouche Lipstick ($26.00 for 0.15 oz.) is a medium, yellowed brown with warm undertones and a cream finish. It had bold, opaque color payoff that covered the lips evenly. The texture was lightweight, creamy without being slippery, and glided on without tugging on the lips. It wore well for five hours and had a touch of color that pulled into my lip lines over time, but the formula was nicely hydrating while worn.

Bite Beauty Cremini Amuse Bouche Lipstick ($26.00 for 0.15 oz.) is a medium brown with warm, yellowy undertones and a cream finish. It had rich, opaque color coverage with a smooth, lightweight texture that was creamy enough to glide on without tugging but did not have too much slip, so it didn’t move around easily. It lasted for five hours on me and was lightly hydrating.

Portobello

Bite Beauty Portobello Amuse Bouche Lipstick ($26.00 for 0.15 oz.) is a dark brown with warm, yellow undertones and a cream finish. It had a bit of shine that wore down to a satin-to-matte finish after a few hours of wear. The color coverage was opaque in one layer, and the lipstick was creamy without being too slippery, so it was easy to apply and lasted nicely throughout the day. It wore for six hours and was moisturizing.

Enoki looks like what I wanted MAC Naturally Transformed to be. Maybe a little bit less yellow? I like Naturally Transformed because it’s pretty unique for a nude, but it’s such a strange shade to pull off…needs brown liner underneath.

Bonnie Avatar

Same here Nancy!!! I’m also olive and peach (such a weird combo but that sounds exactly like my skin) and as much as I love unusual and unique lip colors I don’t think I could pull these off well. Just too yellow for me.

Pami Avatar

While I’m sure these heavily yellow undertoned lipsticks will work well for some skin tones & faces, they would look dreadful on me! Still, I’m always happy when companies choose to make colors and shades that are outside of the box. So Yay! for diversity! 🙂

I so wanted to love the Amuse Bouche lipsticks because they’re gorgeous, but I can’t. I really dislike the scent and taste, which I find lingers for a really long time, but worse, these burn my lips! I’m not talking just drying (which they are), but an actual chemical type burn. If I wear them over about 4 hours, my lips are so burned and chapped that it takes me several days to get back to normal. It’s awful. Has that happened to anyone else, or am I just a weirdo??

Fran Avatar

I’m glad they have a range from light to dark, but these kind of warm neutral lipstick shades really make me look dreadful! I’ll stick with Thistle 🙂

Fran Avatar

Exactly! 99% of “nude” lipstick shades are warm, most are light, and they make me look really horrible! I’m glad that a few lines have been coming out with some cooler and deeper neutral lipstick shades.
