Bite High Pigment Matte Pencil in Corvina – $24
Don’t shoot me but today I am confessing my love for an item you are only able to get your mitts on in the States and Canada. I am just the messenger – the real blame should go to Bite Beauty who need to get their act together and stock their items across the pond in the UK ;) Back when I was on holiday and perusing the aisles of Sephora, my beady eyes spied a small section of bright and bold lip products from a company called Bite Beauty. Exclusive to Sephora this brand only sells the best lip products. All their items are highly pigmented, super hydrating and come sans petroleum and synthetic chemicals. The founder has the philosophy ‘you eat what you put on your lips, so your lipstick should be good for you’ so you know you are going to get the best.
Not only are the lip products divine, each one is handcrafted to ensure the quality is never compromised. All the range contains organic ingredients to moisturise and care for your lips so you know you are getting the very best. With lip pencils popping up left right and centre I was instantly drawn to the range of High Pigment Matte Pencils. Each one is a super pigmented and with 20 shades to choose from you really are spoilt for choice. I opted for the shade Corvina which is a bright coral pink. This is simply gorgeous and even though it’s matte, it doesn’t dry out your lips or cling to any rough patches. You simply get intense colour in one swipe.
I love the packaging of these pencils and *hallelujah* they have a twist bottom so no sharpeners are needed here. The first picture shows me wearing Corvina alone but in the bottom two I have paired it with my much loved Boujois Colour Boost Lip Crayon in Peach on the Beach. This gives a slick of shine and mutes the intensity a tad. With lipsticks and lip oils also in the range, I can tell Bite Beauty are going to on my love list for a long time to come.
