Re: THE SWATCH REQUEST THREAD !

Hello,I find so many beautiful shades in Bite beauty's new Amuse Bouche line.But there ain't much swatches in the web .With me thinking what they may really look like,I would appriciate some savior swatches very much!

 

I really want to see both arm and lip swatches of

Sake,

Verbenna,

Chai,(what's it like in comparison to Shiraz?)

Molasses

Pepper

under different light conditions.

 

Thank you so much! 

 

Re: THE SWATCH REQUEST THREAD !

I currently have Pepper and just ordered Sake, so in a couple days once I receive it, I can swatch those two for you! BTW Pepper is seriously beautiful!

Re: THE SWATCH REQUEST THREAD !

I have posted swatches of Chai and Molasses in the BITE thread:

Pepper is also in the old collection and there are swatches in that thread too.

 

Also, the reason you can't find many swatches is because the collection just launched a week ago, and isn't even available in stores yet.  Bite has been releasing swatches a shade a day on Snapchat.

Re: THE SWATCH REQUEST THREAD !

Thank you Mocha !

I know ,I've been a follower of you there!

Your posts are really helpful and are basically my daily checks.

 

Do you think Shiraz and Chai look alike?

 

 

I just need lip swatches so I can be more clear on the true colors.

 

Chai seems to be more like Glace but it sometimes seems to be more brown. 

 

Bite beauty ,what a sweet suffuring.

Re: THE SWATCH REQUEST THREAD !

Here is a lip swatch of a few:

I find Chai more pink/brown and Shiraz  more mauve on me, so they are similar, but not the same.  

 

I just received a Sake for my birthday, so I'll be able to post some photos shortly of that, too.

Re: THE SWATCH REQUEST THREAD !

Thank you so much!

I'll stay tuned to the Upcoming BITE beauty thread for your future posts!

 

Do you think Molasses is very close to UD's 1993 ?

Re: THE SWATCH REQUEST THREAD !

I don't own 1993, but I do own a lot of colors that are considered similar to it.

 

I think Molasses is a bit darker than 1993 and has a bit more red to it.

Roger that!Thank you Mocha!

 

Re: THE SWATCH REQUEST THREAD !

Does anyone have a swatch of the Burberry single shadow in Pale Barley? I am looking for a new neutral slightly satiny/shimmery shadow and have been looking at this one for a while.

Re: THE SWATCH REQUEST THREAD !

Getting it for you!

Re: THE SWATCH REQUEST THREAD !

Natural/cloudy light

L-R:

Pale Barley dry

Pale Barley wet (it sheers the color out a bit and adds a glow)

Stila Kitten

Nars DI Dione

Burberry Midnight Brown

 

I know you only asked for pale barley, but I thought I'd add a few other champagne/neutral shimmery washes I have on hand for comparison. Also, not what you asked for, but in case anyone wants to see it, I like pairing midnight brown with pale barley.

Fwiw, pale barley is the most used eyeshadow in my collection. I have the new version and love it:)

Re: THE SWATCH REQUEST THREAD !

Thanks! Good comparison putting it next to Stila kitten as that's one of my favorite shadows, so it was good to see the differences.

Re: THE SWATCH REQUEST THREAD !

You're welcome! Glad it worked out:)

Re: THE SWATCH REQUEST THREAD !

I really thought it would be closer in color to Kitten. I was surprised at how dark Pale Barley is.

Re: THE SWATCH REQUEST THREAD !

I did 2-3 swipes/layers of all except dione, so pale barley can be applied much lighter. I swatched it heavier because it was hard to distinguish from my skin as a light swatch. Hope that makes sense!

Re: THE SWATCH REQUEST THREAD !

Ahh, ok. Thanks for clarifying!

Re: THE SWATCH REQUEST THREAD !

I know this isn't high end or anything, but if anyone has swatches of the new elf cream blush palettes (especially Bold) or the new elf Satin Lipsticks would you mind sharing?  :3

 

Also can I get swatches of Nars Jane & Anita next to Audrey?

 

Thanks in advance!

Re: THE SWATCH REQUEST THREAD !

I will do Jane, Anita, and Audrey for you tomorrow. PM me if I don't.

Re: THE SWATCH REQUEST THREAD !

Lovely!  Thank you so so much!!

Re: THE SWATCH REQUEST THREAD !

From top: Anita, Jane, Audrey. Two swipes each.

Re: THE SWATCH REQUEST THREAD !

Here is me in Jane: (I think...)

ETA: WOW, look at that overdrawing on the top lip, and the really hard-edged pencil liner with the nude shadow... This was one of the first pics I ever posted on BT and BOY does it show lol. I don't do either of those things anymore.
