Re: Upcoming BITE Beauty Releases

They said on IG they will be posting swatches of each color daily on snapchat 😉

Re: Upcoming BITE Beauty Releases

Thanks! I'll have to keep an eye out for it.

Re: Upcoming BITE Beauty Releases

Incidentally I was watching this video on mute while Ghostface Killah's Rise Up (Instrumental) was playing in the background and it went together really well haha.

Re: Upcoming BITE Beauty Releases

Forgive me for being cynical, but is the formula actually very different or not?  I noticed that the price on these is $2 higher than the price on the Luminous Creme lipsticks, and it annoys me that they discontinued the old line in what looks like a profit-driven move to push people to buy a more expensive lipstick.  I know no one is making anyone buy lipstick, but why discontinue the LC line??  The Luminous Creme and Amuse Bouche lines easily could have coexisted.

Re: Upcoming BITE Beauty Releases

I haven't tried it yet, but I read somewhere that the Amuse Bouche was similar to the LE Luminous trio formula: Mimosa, Kir Royale, and Bellini. I have both the LE Luminous trio shades and many of the Luminous Creme line and there is a big difference. The LE trio shades are so pigmented and remind me of the NARS Audacious formula. The original Luminous Creme formula is a bit more sheer.

Re: Upcoming BITE Beauty Releases

Ah interesting - I only own 1 "true" LC lipstick in Zivoli; the others are Mimosa & Kir Royale from the LE trio shades, 2 of the LLLRs, the VIB Rouge mini, and 1 of the Frozen Berries.  (I also have a bunch of the high pigment pencils & matte creme lip crayons, as well as one of the cashmere mattes.  I have a fairly serious lip product addiction.)  I hadn't noticed a significant difference between Zivoli and my other Bite LC lipsticks, but perhaps it's because Zivoli was a deep red and the pigmentation would be hard to mess up?  😛  I guess this means that formulation wasn't entirely consistent in the LC line?

Re: Upcoming BITE Beauty Releases

I forgot about the Frozen Berry line! I have Plum and even that one is much more pigmented than the Luminous Creme line and compares in formula to the LE Luminous Creme trio. Yeah I agree, the Luminous Creme line was very inconsistent. 

Re: Upcoming BITE Beauty Releases

Well, from reports, the AB line is similar but a bit less shiny and slippy. Since slip and/or "too creamy" seem to be the main objections people who don't like them have, it makes sense to me that they would try to introduce a version with less of that. Maybe they just didn't want to have two similar lines going at the same time, or didn't want to confuse people by reformulating and re-doing the colors while keeping the same name.

 

Also, it's unfortunately pretty normal for brands to increase the price of existing product lines $1-$2 every few years (inflation and whatnot), so even if they hadn't introduced AB they probably would have bumped up the LC price.

Re: Upcoming BITE Beauty Releases

Right, I know it's "normal" to bump up the price of existing product lines every year now (wish my salary went up that fast, lol - but we all know wages never keep pace with prices in this economy) although I wish it weren't - but it seems silly to take away the choice from us between LC and AB (and lazy to reuse the LC lipstick tube packaging for the AB line even though the boxes are different).  That's the most annoying part to me.  Also they have always had some color overlap in their different lines, as there are many colors in the High Pigment Pencil line that were also in the LC line, which makes me doubt that the similar colors/names thing was a major motivation.  Sorry I'm getting a little rant-y, but I felt like it needed to be said :3

Re: Upcoming BITE Beauty Releases

Of all the test groups out there, this is the one I would have wanted to be a part of lol. Ugh Bite you are my weakness!! 

Re: Upcoming BITE Beauty Releases

Oh you guys, when I opened the package from them I almost started crying. It was just beautiful.

Re: Upcoming BITE Beauty Releases

awww 🙂 that sounds amazing and exciting. 

Re: Upcoming BITE Beauty Releases

Same. My heart yearns for BITE lipsticks.

Re: Upcoming BITE Beauty Releases

Check out that new packaging, though. ♥___♥

 

Edited: And the description says they have a citrus scent/flavor! 😮

Re: Upcoming BITE Beauty Releases

Yes it does, smells yummy!

Re: Upcoming BITE Beauty Releases

But not overly scented

Re: Upcoming BITE Beauty Releases

I think I must be in the minority, but  I actually don't like the new packaging.

 

It reminds me a lot of that drip design on the Kylie lip kits, which I don't like either.

 

Also bummed to hear they are citrus scent/flavored.  That's my least favorite thing about some of the LE pencils I have 😞

Re: Upcoming BITE Beauty Releases

It reminds me of RHPC. 😄 Hopefully the citrus scent isn't too noticeable... I don't like scented lip products much in general.

Re: Upcoming BITE Beauty Releases

I don't think it's too bad...I can smell it when I put it on but it fades pretty quickly for me.

Re: Upcoming BITE Beauty Releases

Would anyone who was in the test group be able to post a swatch of jam, please?  Thanks!

Here you go...Jam is on top, Molasses underneath. They both look a little darker in real life than they do in the picture.
