Bite Beauty Pastille & Tatin Power Move Lip Crayons Reviews & Swatches

Pastille

Bite Beauty Pastille Power Move Creamy Matte Lip Crayon ($24.00 for 0.05 oz.) is a muted, medium-dark rosy mauve with neutral-to-warm undertones paired with a soft, cream finish. The lip crayon was richly pigmented with a smooth, lightly creamy texture that felt lightweight and had a smidgen of tackiness, which I felt kept it in place while still offering a very comfortable-to-wear formula.

The color applied evenly, though there was a smidgen of product in my deeper lip lines when I looked at the close-up photo that I couldn’t see in person. It stayed on well for five hours and was moisturizing over time.

Formula Overview

$24.00/0.05 oz. - $480.00 Per Ounce

The formula is supposed to have "bold, one-swipe color" paired with a "comfortable, creamy-matte finish" that is hydrating. The pencil includes a built-in sharpener as well. There's a lightly sweetened, herbal lemon scent but no discernible taste (similar to past Bite lip products). The texture felt impossibly creamy when swatched--almost like it was melting--and definitely "buttery" was the descriptor that came to mind, but the impressive part was that it did not feel like it melted on my lips.

I was concerned that the product would be too soft and too readily applied to lips, but instead, it just skated on with rich coverage delivered in a single stroke. I felt like I didn't even have to apply a full layer across my lips (as the pencil tip doesn't cover an entire lip area) as there was enough pigmentation to cover my lips by pressing and gently rubbing them together.

As I swatched and applied each shade, I found that they were particularly flattering on as they went on smoothly, didn't emphasize lip lines or lip texture, and had even coverage. They were comfortable to wear with moderate slip, though I didn't personally experience the product feathering or bleeding on me (but keep in mind, I'm not prone to either). They lasted between four and six hours with deeper shades lasting longer and having subtle stains left behind. The formula felt lightly to moderately hydrating over time.

Tatin

Bite Beauty Tatin Power Move Creamy Matte Lip Crayon ($24.00 for 0.05 oz.) is a brighter, medium pink-coral with subtle, warm undertones and a cream finish. The pigmentation was nearly opaque in a single pass, which was easily built up to full coverage with less than half of a layer.

The consistency was lightweight, creamy without being too slippery, and comfortable to wear. I noticed that this shade seemed to be more emollient than others I’ve tried in the range, which led to a bit of subtle streaking along the outer areas of my lips and a smidgen of product separating along my deeper lip lines. This shade lasted nicely for four and a half hours and felt hydrating while worn.

The color was darker, not quite as warm-toned compared to the previous formula.
