Last month, I got my Sephora Birthday 2018.
You had two choices to choose from, GlamGLow and Bite Beauty. I decided to get Bite Beauty. For this post, I will review the lip product on the bottom right.
This is Bite Beauty Matte Creme Lip Crayon in Glace. Since I did a thorough review of Bite Beauty Matte Creme Lip Crayon in Blood Orange, I will base this on that.
Ingredients:
Organic Ricinus Communis (Castor) Seed Oil, Acacia Decurrens Wax, Jojoba Wax, Helianthus Annuus (Sunflower) Seed Wax, Polyglyceryin-3, Polyhydroxystearic Acid, Organic Butyrospermum Parkii (Shea Butter), Organic Cera Alba (Beeswax), Silica, Citrus Aurantium Dulcis (Orange) Peel Wax, Coco-Caprylate, Copernicia Cerifera (Xarnauba) Wax, Natural Flavor, Tocopherol, Trans-Resveratrol, Vitis Vinefera (Grape) Vine Extract, Siraitia Grosvenorii (Monk Fruit Concentrate). May Contain: Mica (CI 77019, Titanium Dioxide (CI 77891), Iron Oxides (CI 77491, CI 7492, CI 77499), Carmine (CI 75470), FD&C Blue No. 1 (CI 42090), FD&C Yellow No. 5 (CI 19140), FD&C Yellow No. 7 (CI 15985), FD&C Red No. 40 (CI 16035), D&C Red 6 (CI 15850), D&C Red 7 (CI 15850), Manganese Violet (CI 77742).
Here's the size difference between the full-size (top) and the birthday special (bottom). The top is Bite Beauty Matte Creme Lip Crayon in Blood Orange.
Here's a closer look at the color. The website describes it as "dusty mauve" and I have to agree.
Here's a closer look at the quantity of the product. I pulled the lip crayon all the way up.
Here's a swatch of the lip crayons on my hand from left to right; Glace and Blood Orange.
Here's how the lip color looks on me.
Here's an overall look. I have Anastasia Soft Glam Palette on the eyes.
Now for my overall opinion... First of all, there's a slight scent while applying. It's minty. I just sniffed the product and it smells like while applying. It has a minty peppermint-like scent. It's not my type of scent but it's not bothersome. Plus, the scent doesn't last that long. I would say couple of minutes the most. Secondly, I like the packaging. I've always been a fan of pencils. They're so easy to outline the lips and fill in the remaining. With that said, it's well-made and sturdy. It's made out of thick plastic, but at the same time, it has a velvety feel to it. I took out my old one, Bite Beauty Matte Creme Lip Crayon in Blood Orange, and I was kind of sadden. The velvety feel has a slight stickiness that I'm not a fan of. The top is also sturdy. It has a tight seal when I pull it off and it makes a clicking noise when I put it back on. I cannot see it open or break unless you are rough with the packaging. For this reason, it's travel-friendly. It's also thin enough to throw in your purse, bag, and even your pocket. It's easy to grab with one hand. Third, the consistency is creamy. It glides on and does not tug on the lips. It goes on smoothly and it's extremely easy to use. If you're looking for completely matte lipstick, this isn't it. It has slight shininess but not to the point it's extremely shiny. It's a pretty, neutral texture. It's also not transfer-proof. Fourth, the color is pretty. It's an everyday color that's good all year round. Pigmentation-wise it's up there. I wouldn't say it's the most pigmented but one layer was good enough to show on my skin. Lastly, it lasted until I ate. I have a tendency to wipe my mouth after each meal. For this reason, lip products don't last that long on me. It's light-weight, comfortable, and not drying at all. I did not see any white residue in the center of the lips. I'm glad I got this product. I can see myself wear this often.
Would repurchase: Yes.
