Anyone see the terrible reviews Temptalia gave the MUFE Aqua Matic pencils? I LOL'd through it. I've had a completely different experience with that product and then there's the line of people like Oh no, I'm skipping it now. :lol:

I swatched the neon green in store yesterday and could barely scrub it off my arm! At least it has staying power. I'm interested to see what she said now.

I swatched them and I loved them. The blue one will be the first one I buy. I'm going to look at her review and be back with my own comments.

OK I was expecting low scores since Shontay came by with the " go and look". However I was not expecting to see Ds and Fs! Seriously I would have given the Purple one a D because yes it is patchy, but the other colors don't deserve such low scores. I planned on skipping the turquoise because I already had that color in the Aqua Cremes. I plan on purchasing the chartreuse and the blue. I swatched both recently in store and I found them creamy. Like ohhhhhhthehorror said it take a bit of rubbing to get the product off my hands. I know we have to take reviews with a grain of salt and use them as a stepping stool in our decisions about what to buy next.Personally I found this to be a bit harsh. I also cannot discount her experience because it's not mine. I for one will be purchasing a pencil and trying it out.

Bummer! I just bought two tonight! Oh well, they're pretty enough. Guess I'll stick to Bite's Cashmere Lip Creams for a slightly more matte look. I don't dare try KVD, my lips are way too dry.
Ya, KVD can be very drying. It's just my experience with the Luster mattes. I haven't tried Bite's (will wait for Nov sale) so I can't compare to them. I hope you like them! What colours did you get?

I picked up Mulberry and Fig. I also have the cashmere lip creams in Crianza, Sancerre, and Burgundy. I figured I'd swatch a bunch side by side to see if Sephora had any dupes in their line but the colors were all very different and definitely more wet! Haven't worn them yet but they look nice!

Ok @shontay07108 & @ DILLIGAF, Got the UD items & your right Dilli girl, the powder is very red & a big too dark for me. I did look at the shade up & should of went with it. The BB is nice, like you stated Shontay it is shear, but gives a nice finish. Maybe a lil "pick me up" lol make sense? I can tell it's there but not.

Oh, no! That bad, huh? Is it not worth keeping to use as a gloss? I'm wondering if I should bother with mine now... Fig is too pretty, I think I'll just deal either way!

Mulberry was my first Bite lipstick! My second was Zin. Kind of stuck on buying any more at the moment because they are quite pricey here even if they're practically made in my backyard.

Oops, I was referring to the Sephora Luster Mattes there! I didn't even realize Bite had a color with the same name. I just looked up swatches and it's really pretty. Very similar, too. I absolutely love Bite's products. My favorite from the 5 lipsticks I have is Cin Cin. Next on my list is Cava after seeing @veronikawithak mentioned wearing it under MAC's Mirror.

LOL, I totally misread the initial post. Sorry about that. I'm a little more tired than usual today. I think I'm gonna have to issue myself an ETB (early to bed).
