Bite Beauty Demi-Glace, Candied, Flambé Amuse Bouche Liquified Lipsticks

Demi-Glace

Bite Beauty Demi-Glace Amuse Bouche Liquified Lipstick ($24.00 for 0.25 fl. oz.) is a subdued, medium-dark plummy brown with subtle, warm undertones and a glossy, cream finish. The consistency was smooth, lightweight, and easily spread across the lips for even, opaque coverage. There was a smidgen of color that pulled into my deeper lip lines but the shinier finish helped minimize how noticeable that was. The lip color stayed on well for five hours and was moisturizing over time.

The Amuse Bouche Liquified Lipstick is supposed to be “moisture-rich, high-pigment” in a “liquified” consistency that has a “creamy, comfortable application.” It’s a lightweight, fluid consistency that was neither runny nor thick on the lips. It does not dry down and feels mostly like a liquid-form of a lipstick (and not so much like a gloss). The majority of the range was incredibly pigmented and spread evenly across the lips. Some shades had a bit of color that sat in my lip lines, which was noticeable from a normal viewing distance with a few but not all. It had a lightly tacky feel on the lips, which helped to adhere as none of the shades I have tested have feathered on me. The formula was lightly hydrating, wore for four to seven hours, and had a light, herbal, lemony scent but no discernible taste.

If you’ve been following Bite for awhile, you might remember the Cashmere Lip Creams from a few years ago, which were also a liquid formula. Unfortunately, I had a couple leak on me and ended up tossing all of them out of fear, so I couldn’t do a true comparison, but from my memory, it was slightly thicker and less tacky while both had a more natural shine after initial application.

Candied

Bite Beauty Candied Amuse Bouche Liquified Lipstick ($24.00 for 0.25 fl. oz.) is a vibrant, medium pinky-red with subtle, cool undertones and a cream finish. It was intensely pigmented with a very smooth, fluid, and cream-like texture that wasn’t too thin or too thick, so it spread well and went on evenly. There was a light tackiness that helped ensure the color stayed in place but was still comfortable to wear. This shade wore well for five and a half hours, left a stain behind, and was hydrating.

Flambé

Bite Beauty Flambé Amuse Bouche Liquified Lipstick ($24.00 for 0.25 fl. oz.) is a vibrant, medium orange with warm, red undertones and a cream finish. It had nearly opaque color coverage in a single layer with a smooth consistency that was lightweight, not too thin or too thick, and was lightly tacky overall. I noticed that this particular shade was less pigmented and looked more translucent on the lips compared to others–more jelly-like than a true cream. On me, I was able to get five hours of wear out of this shade, and there was a subtle stain left behind, while the formula felt moisturizing.
