BITE Beauty for Earth Day

BITE Beauty for Earth Day // Belle Belle Beauty

Happy Earth Day! Here in my beauty lair, I celebrate with some the effective and environmentally conscious lip care from BITE beauty. The company makes all their products with food-grade ingredients – literally good enough to eat!

I’ve been rocking some seriously dehydrated lips thanks to some bad water habits and loads of plane rides. To get this pucker back in shape, I’ve been exfoliating with Whipped Cherry Lip Scrub. The rich cream has a light texture sprinkled with exfoliating beads. The combo allows for really gentle exfoliation. It also has the antioxidant Resveratrol, fruit acids rich in vitamin C and rice bran to fight free radicals and condition. And the best part – a yummy and 100% natural cheery flavor.

To follow up, I’ve been reaching for Superfruit Butter…. A LOT. I keep this stuff by my bed and reach for it not only for my lips but also my cuticles. The formula contains acai, blueberry, cranberry, and pomegranate – these fruits have the highest oxygen radical absorbance capacity (ORAC) values of any food, making it a super charged with antioxidant benefits. All while Shea butter works to condition and hydrate.

Brand Spotlight: Bite Beauty

Brand Spotlight: Bite Beauty // Belle Belle Beauty

There is something about this brand that immediate caught my eye. Their section in Sephora is like a candy case of lip goodies. The sleek packaging, wearable colors and catchy names made me want to scoop up one of everything. But in the interest of brevity, I am going to highlight three “All Star” products that I am head over heels for from this cool little indie company.

First, major kudos to the brand: all their formulas are infused with food-grade ingredients – makes sense since lots of what goes on your pout goes in your mouth. BITE avoids petroleum by-products and synthetic chemicals and also produces in small batches to preserve the hydrating benefits of organic oils, fruit butters, and bioactives. So cool!

My fellow bloggers were swooning over the BITE Beauty High Pigment Matte Pencil so I gave Corvina, one of their new spring colors, a test drive.  This bright coral pink definitely reminds me of this NARS lipstick. The finish is very matte with rich, opaque color. Shea butter keeps the dense color from looking dry on the lips. And bonus: the formula is packed with as much resveratrol as found in five glasses of red wine, boosting long-term anti-aging properties.

I am loving these buttery “lipsticks” that are everywhere these days. My dry lips need all the help they can get, and BITE Beauty Lush Lip Tint in Lychee might be best of breed. The soft lipstick gives a glossy, hydrated finish and softens lips with argan oil and vitamin E. The center B provides a double dose of resveratrol like in the Matte Pencil, just not quite as much. The initial also contains a soft pearl highlighter giving the finish just a bit of shimmer. Oh, and PS, the color is buildable.

BITE Beauty Honey Lip Lacquer in Ruby is an easy-peezy way to easily wear red lips. The low maintenance gloss applies evenly and wears well without being a mess. I apply from the center of my lips, blending outward, to give just a stain of color. You can layer for a bigger punch of pigment. I adore the way this smells – just a touch of honey thanks to the moisturizing Pure Manuka Honey. Jojoba provides long-term hydration as well. Like the Matte Pencil and Lip Tint, Resveratrol provides an anti-aging benefit. And this stuff won’t budge – the formula is waterproof.
