Bold Flamingo
“I love you”
I did what I think is the coolest thing when I was in NYC this past weekend. You need to promise me that you’ll do this if you ever go (or if you live there).
I can’t remember how I even stumbled upon this article, but after reading about a lipstick lab where you could create a custom shade of lipstick I knew I had to try to make that happen.
I anticipated lines wrapped around the block, but as my husband and I approached the store just minutes before it opened on a Sunday, I was pleasantly surprised to only see a few customers waiting outside. Nonetheless, I’m glad we got there early.
I sat down with a lovely woman whose name now escapes me and she walked me through the process. I was a little familiar having read about it beforehand, but it was more exciting than you can imagine to look at all the color options in front of me.
My consultant swatched each of the different finishes so I could pick which one I wanted. I chose the sheerest of all the options, and this lipstick isn’t even close to sheer. Bite doesn’t skimp on pigment, so consider yourself warned. The 3 main finishes are $36 and there is one luxurious option which I believe starts at about $45. Be sure to ask the consultant before you begin!
I told her I was interested in a pinky coral shade and she got right to work. It was interesting to see her start with a latte color and then build up from there. She grabbed shades I wouldn’t have thought would work together, but it turned into a orange-red color right before my eyes.
After trying on the first shade she concocted, I asked her to make it a little bit more pink. She obliged, and despite thinking I knew what I wanted, I ended up preferring the first shade between the two. I’m sure I could have spent more time mixing and testing shades, but I was pretty pleased with the first shade she made for me.
She directed me over to the section where I choose my flavor. I was tempted to go with the mint, because that’s typically my favorite flavor within lip products, but I chose vanilla instead. The flavor is so subtle I can’t even tell it’s there, so I’m not sure it would have mattered if I chose a different one.
After the color and flavor was decided upon, she grabbed all the necessary shades from behind a glass wall to melt together in some sort of microwave. Once melted, she tested the color on her arm to make sure it matched the formula she created earlier, and then poured it into the mold.
Oddly enough, the only step left after that was to let the mold sit on top of a freezer and allow the lipstick to set. It all seemed incredibly simple.
After just 5 minutes, she popped my lipstick out and placed it into a container. It’s recommended that you wait about 20-30 minutes before applying it straight from the tube just to ensure it’s completely cooled and set.
I loved the whole process. I found it really fun to go through the process of creating my very own shade, and I’d do it again in a heartbeat. The store is fairly narrow and small, but tucked away in a cobblestoned area of West Village downtown New York City. The staff was friendly and helpful, and if my husband wouldn’t have been with me, I would have spent much more time looking around at everything in the store.
When I initially sat down to create the shade, I asked my consultant to make 2 lipsticks so I could give one away to one of you! The shade is a bright orange-pink-red (it looks different in different lighting!) that is highly pigmented. Look at it as a statement lipstick. I’ve worn it several times already and quite enjoy that it stains my lips a nice, rich color even after the lipstick wears off.

I love a bold lip!! The color looks great on you…and great name choice by the way!!
I LOVE Bite!!! Cruelty-free and (this part is exciting for me!) Canadian!!! I wish they offered this service in Victoria…
I love bold colors! Thanks for the chance to win, I would love to go to this place!
Neither colors. I almost never wear lipstick. But I tend to wear bright colors If I ever do.
That seems like so much fun!!!! I love a bold lip! (But a neutral color has it’s place too!) 🙂
I like neutral colors best. Whenever I consider trying a bolder color, I always tend to gravitate back towards neutrals.
I agree with the bold lip color and liking the color name!
I love a bold colour for nights out! During the day I prefer more neutral shades
Love a neutral!
Love this color
There’s nothing like a bold lip color to make you feel instantly feminine.
I love bold colors!
I agree, the color looks wonderful on you. However, I always shy away to a more nude/ subtle shade of lipstick because I always feel like bolder colors tend to make to look like I’m trying too hard or like a 3 year old that got into her mom’s make-up. Weird, I know. I would love to learn which bolder shades would work on me!
What a great color. Thanks for sharing the tip about the store. I will check it out next time I am in the city.
What a stunning colour! I love a bold lip, and almost always wear my lipstick in bright, bold tones.
I usually wear neutral colors, but that bold shade would definitely be worth trying!
This is so neat!
I haven’tbeen wearing much lipstick, but when I do I generally grab one of the more neutral MAC shades I have. This looks exciting and fun! Thank you.
I typically wear nude color lipsticks but have been dieing to step out of my comfort zone with some bold colors for the summer, this one looks like it would be absolutely perfect.
I had no idea there was such a store. Perhaps there is one closer to come in SC. Fantastic color!!!!
I typically wear neutral shades on a day to day basis but love to spice things up for a day/night out with the husband or friends. This shade is stunning!
I wear more neutral shades, but I am trying to get out of my comfort zone and experiment with some more bold shades.
I love this color! And it looks amazing on you. I hope I can go there someday!
And I typically go for a nude pink.
Very cool!!! I never wear lip stick because I have no clue what color to choose!! This would be fun! 🙂
Love the color! I usually wear a more neutral shade but would love to experiment with this kind of statement lipstick 🙂
I normally wear neutral something good for everyday. I haven’t found that bold lipstick that I love but I’m always looking for a good bold.
Love that color on you!
I haven’t dove into lipsticks, yet but I’ve been dying to for a while! I don’t know where to start! Hopefully, this lipstick starts my collection!
I usually wear a sheer MAC gloss but I love that color for summer! So pretty!
Usually neutrals for me, but bold about 2x a week. Live this shade!
I’m a neutral shade during the day but definitely a bold lip colour at night!
I normally wear neutral colors, but I’d be happy to branch out of my comfort zone and try something new!
I’m more of a bold lipstick wearer. It’s like jewelry to me!
I actually wear both! During the day/at work I usually tone it down and use a neutral shade. At night or on the weekend I love a bold lip. It’s such a fun way to incorporate color into my look!
I love bold colors especially in shades of red!
I would love to win Bold Flamingo! 🙂
Another reason to visit NYC! I love Bite lipstick and generally wear neutral colors but every once in awhile like to go for bold. Love the shade you picked!!
It is a beautiful color on you. What a neat idea for a store. I’m surprised it’s not done in other cities.
I usually wear neutral lip colors
(Aaaand I didn’t read the question before I commented)
🙂
I normally wear neutrals, but I get so many compliments when I wear bold lipstick that I am trying to branch out!
I am a big fan of a bold lip- very timeless and elegant. This reminds me that I need to do this look more… The “bold flamingo” is your color for sure!
I usually wear neutral lipsticks.
want want want want. I am still on the hunt for the perfect red — i need to try this!
I love bold shades, but I’ve been looking for a perfect color red for my skin tone
neutral!
Beautiful color. It suits you perfectly.
Oh, I absolutely love this!!!! I typically wear sheer neutral but my husband likes bold so I am trying to move in that direction. This would be great!!!
So fun!!!
Thanks for sharing I am going to recruit my cousins and aunt to go do this with me!
I usually wear neutrals, but id like to spice it up!
What a beautiful shade! Thanks for thinking of us and sharing your experience!
I usually wear some shade of pink gloss, but I’ve been wearing a bold lip color more often lately.
Wow! What a neat process and you ended up with a gorgeous shade! I’ve always been looking for the right pink…not too pale not too fuchsia…I will have to see if there are places by me in Dallas that do this!
I typically wear watermelon shades close to this. Love this and great name for it!
I usually wear a neutral color!
Sounds like a great and interesting experience! And what a great shade! Love it!
So fun. Thank you
I typically stick more towards neutral, but this summer I’ve been experimenting with some brighter shades and I’m liking it!
I tend to gravitate toward neutrals but need to be pushed into more adventurous colors 🙂
I love bold statement lipsticks, and that looks like a perfect color to go bold with!
I love bold lips! {It just has to be the right shade!} I love the color you created!
I usually go for light colors but I am trying to be braver! I LOVE this color on you! So beautiful!
I’m funny about lipstick, I typically don’t wear any at work because I can’t stand having to worry about whether its fading off from drinking coffee or sipping out of my water bottle all day. But at night I love cherry red, coral, orange tinted red, anything bold!
I love it! I will definitely do this the next time I am in NY.
I usually don’t wear lipstick very often but when I do I wear a subtle color. Wearing lipstick always makes me feel great! I don’t know why I don’t do it more often. 🙂
I don’t wear lipstick…only my Nivea chapstick…so some bold color would definitely make a “statement”! 😉 So glad you had a great time in NYC!
Love this color! I typically wear neutrals but love a bold color now and then.
That sounds like the coolest thing to do! What a great way to remember trip too!
This looks like it would be a lot of fun! If I ever go to NYC I will have to make my own shade, thank you for a great find!
I usually wear neutrals, but I’m trying to branch out with brighter colors for summer. What a fun way to find a new lipstick!
I like a bold lip. I recently went to Sephora to get their Radiant Orchid lipstick but sadly they were all out. They suggested I try “Grape” by Bite and I’m glad I did! It is a beautiful color that is perfect for the spring!
I typically wear neutral on a day-to-day basis but am all of a bold lip shade for a fun weekend or date night!
When I actually wear lipstick, it’s almost always a bold color.
How cool! I will put this on my list of things to do when I’m back in NYC! I usually wear a somewhat bold color because my lips already have good color to them. I have a hard time wearing lipstick because of it. This looks like a great color!!
How fun! And how sweet of you to share the experience with us. 🙂
I like both !
I love bold colors! !
I am usually more of a lipgloss girl but recently bought my first lip stick and I love it, it’s more of a light coral color. Love the shade you created!!
Love the color!!!
How fun! I normally wear neutral shades, however I like to wear a more statement shade some days too.
I LOVE this idea, it will definitely be on an NYC to-do list!
I love color! Most of the time I am not sure what looks good on me,so I shy away from lipstick altogether. Love the color you created!
I usually wear bold bright colors, and corally pink is my go too. That a great experience! Hopefully i make it back to NYC soon and can have this same experience!. Thanks for sharing!
Tristan Carls (chrisandtristan@gmail.com)
That looks like a really fun thing to do–will definitely have to try this next time I’m in the city! As for lipsticks, I’m not afraid of a bold color but lately have been on a neutral kick.
Wow! I love that- going to NYC in the fall so will for sure check it out. I love that this color is great for now but will still be beautiful in the cooler months!
That is so cool!! I had no idea that there are places like that. I would love the chance to win this!! Thanks
I typically wear neutral but want to experiment!
I typically wear a neutral shade. This color is fabulous!
I love a nice neutral color but do occasionally wear a bold color. The coral your wearing is beautiful.
I typically don’t wear anything. But when I can remember, I wear sheer neutral colors. However, my friend put a bold Mac lipstick on me recently and, while it took a bit to get used to the color I ended up loving it.
I love bold lips but have been wearing neutrals lately. I always love your lip color! It would be perfect for my daughters wedding in four weeks!
I usually wear neutral shades of lipstick. This looked like a lot of fun!
I usually wear neutral pinks and corals, but I love the pop of color you created! The name is cute too!
I usually wear really neutral shades, but this looks intriguing…maybe I could pull it off ?!?
For the longest time I did neutral lips because I enjoyed playing my eyes up more, but I have been loving the bold lip colors the season. I am currently obsessed with Revlon’s Matte Balm in “Unapologetic”
I usually wear neutral colors but I really like this color
How cool, this sounds like so much fun!
how awesome is a store like that!! … I wear a lot of neutrals but have been picking up a few brighter colors lately- must be the summer fever 🙂
I wear neutrals most of the time but I do love to mix it up with a bold lip sometimes!
If I do wear more than a lip gloss, I always go bold.
Neutrals during the day, bolds at night!
what a novel idea! true girlie fun 🙂
I love to wear various shades depending on my mood that day. Typically I wear sheer shades to work, but this Spring/Summer I have been loving the bold orange trend for the season! I also love the idea if having a personalized shade made. It can be difficult to tell what some lip products will look like unless you are able to try them on. What a fun process to have been a part of! Thank you for sharing!
Love the shade & the name!
My sister Angela(lives in Chicago) is getting engaged this Friday and she would look beautiful in the lipstick!
Love a bold lipcolor! I would love one too 🙂
I mostly wear neutrals but there are special occasions that I like to step out of my box! What a great experience!
This is sooo cool! I wish I would have known about this when I was in New York last. I hope to go back so I can visit this shop! And the color you created is awesome! I love wearing bold colors and that looks like a perfect orangy red.
I wear a little of both!! It depends on what I’m going for that day, but I LOVE a good bold lip (and you rock it well 🙂 ). Been shopping for a new lipstick lately and I just love that color!!!
Such a neat thing to be able to do!! Love the color!
That’s a gorgeous color on you. I usually stick to neutrals. I’ve never been to NY, but that sounds like a must have experience!
I tend to use mostly bold colors. Love the look of this one and will definitely check this out next time I’m in the city. Thanks for the tip!
i usually prefer a neutral lip but that shade is fantastic for summer!!!!
How fun! Love the color!
I’m more a “middle of the road” kind of girl, since I haven’t found a nude lip I love. I can’t wear a super-strong lip at work, but I would totally rock this flamingo color on date night with the Mister!! What a great concept…I’d love to go to that store!! Thanks, Kate, for all you do for us!
This is WAY cool! Thanks so much for sharing Kate!! I’m not sure I will be in NYC anytime soon – but if I do – I definitely want to try out this store. I will probably have to leave my husband behind though, this would NOT be his thang!! =) Have a great Thursday!!!
I typically wear neutral glossy shades, but would love to try something a little bolder! I would love to try “Bold Flaming.”
I prefer more neutral, subtle shades. But I’m working on getting more comfortable with brighter shades.
I typically go for neutral but love a bold lip from time to time. And this shade looks gorgeous on you!
This is a great post. I had no idea you could even do this sort of thing. I love the shade you chose. I have red hair so I typically stick with the same Revlon shade of brown that I’ve been wearing my whole life. In the winter I’ll be “daring” and wear a cranberry-ish color but I’ve been looking for something a bit bolder.
I always stick to safe, neutral colors but this makes me wanna go bold!!!
I love a bold lip color!
I love bold lippy with simple eye makeup.
I will choose a bold lip over a neutral any day! I feel like neutrals drain the color from my face, and it’s nice to stand out in a crowd with a bold lip on.
Beautiful color! Now I want to go to NYC!
Oh, and I prefer corals or pinks myself but will occasionally wear a statement lip. This color is gorgeous!
I love a bold lip- really adds a pop of color to my face!
I usually go for a bold lip and am so in love with the color you created!!
I have never been bold enough to try a bold lip color. For me, this would be a total opposite of my neutral-lovin’ self!
I love to wear a bold lip, but sometimes throwing on a softer lip gloss is nice once in a while!
I love a bold lip, but generally gravitate towards a neutral one instead.
Your Bite color is great – I’m definitely going to pay a visit!
I usually pick a neutral but have been trying to branch out and go bold.
That sounds like a fun process!! I love the shade on you!
Can’t wait to visit that store! I usually wear neutrals during the work week, but bolder on the weekends.
I typically wear nude shades of lipstick, but would be super excited to try this one!
I typically wear bold lipsticks and absolutely love this shade! I’m going to NYC this fall and am so glad you shared this experience bc I’m so going too!
I tend to wear neutral but do LOVE a bold lip from time to time. I am extremely excited about the stain aspect, as the quick wearing off is why I normall shy away from a bold lip as I forget to keep applying!
Really cool! I’ve been looking for a coral-orange lip color myself! Wish bITE was closer!
What a fun experience! I only wear neutral lip gloss, but love the bold flamingo shade. It looks perfect on you!!
neutral!!
Strangest thing….my daughter lives in NY and did this this weekend also!! funny maybe you were there at the same time, She wants to do it again and I would like to go with her!
I typically ware neutrals but I’d love to try this shade!
What a neat experience!! I’ll have to try it out next time I visit NYC! I usually wear neutrals but now that summer is here I’ve been experiencing more with bold colors!!
I tend to go for mostly neutral but would love to try this color. Looks beautiful!
I used to be all about neutral shades, but in the past couple of years, I’ve decided bold is better. Since I don’t wear a lot of other makeup, I like my lips to stand out.
I would love to try an actual lipstick! All the shades I have for my lips are just glosses or Chapstick with color. I love reds,oranges, and pinks so I know I would love this color. Next time I’m in NYC again, I will definitely be sure to go and create my own. Thanks for the post and for sharing bits and pieces of your life with us gals! 🙂
I usually wear nudes and pinks, but I do love a good statement lip every now and then!
Motherhood suits you – you glow :). This looks so fun! I miss the perfume bars they used to have. I’d get rose & baby powder …
Wish a Bite would open next door to me! I love a bold lip – anything to pop out of my very pale skin. 🙂
I would say my everyday makeup includes neutral-but-not-nude shades. My two favorites right now are a pink stain that’s just barely darker and brighter than my natural lips, and a sheer poppy red from Julep. I don’t wear pale lip colors very well 🙂
That looks so fun!! When I buy lipstick I catch myself wishing it were a little more brown or a little more orange or whatever. This could solve that.
I commented before I found the question. I typically wear neutral color just because I’m a little seed of a bold lip. 🙂
I go back and forth — I put on a bold lip in the morning but by the afternoon I’m slathering on chapstick, haha!
That is the coolest! I would love to give that color a try.
What a cool thing to do!
I wear a lot of neutral pinks, but do own a few more bold shades I break out every now and then.
What a fun idea! You look great in that color. I prefer a neutral lip on me, but there’s a time and a place for a bold lip!
I am definitely doing this if I ever go to NYC!!
Such a cool idea! I would love to do that if I ever get to NYC. I normally wear nude colors and glosses but I might have to mix it up a bit.
I tend to bounce between a light pinky-coral gloss and true red lipstick, but I adore this color!
This sounds so fun! When I finally make it to NYC, I’ll have to remember to try this:) In the mean time, it’s be great to win this extra tube of your shade. I love a bold lip color!
I usually go for light pink or nude. I do like the bolder colors, but I’m too scared it looks horrible on me. However, I would love to try this color and visit the store when I go back to NYC.
I’m a neutrals, usually sheer, kind of girl. But once in a while, I like to go bold.
I typically go sheer and more on the neutral side, a coral or light pink, but I’ve been wanting to try something different. Now I have yet another reason to go to NYC!
How fun! That color is gorgeous!!!
I typically wear neutral colors but I love wearing fun bold colors to special occasions.
Usually more nuetral/pink but I love to experiment! !!
I like a nice neutral lip for work and a bold lip on the weekends.
I would love to win this!! I stick with nude colors
Sounds like so much fun! I love the color!
I’m usually a neutral lipstick wearer, but I love a bold lip every once in awhile! I’m going to NYC in the fall. I’ll definitely be adding this to the to-do list!
I usually wear nude but would love to own some fun bold colors.
I usually stick with a neutral lip, but I’ve been experimenting with bold colors! I love this color!
Beautiful! I typically wear pink lipstick. I love the color of yours!
This is so cool! How fun to create it yourself!
Forgot to say I usually wear neutral!
How exciting I would love to make my own lipstick color. What a great idea I am definitely a neutral pink color
I tend to go neutral as I’m just starting out in the lip color world but I’m slowly starting to dabble in the bolder shades.
Love this color!
Trying to wear bolder shades thanks to you, my friend 🙂
HOW FUN!! I am curious how much it cost to do this? I’m guessing it was probably crazy expensive. But what a great way to be creative with makeup!
I tend to use less vibrant glosses and balms, but I did purchase a bright coral lipstick last summer that I always receive compliments on every time I wear it. I’m ready to mix it up some more!
My sister just moved to New York! I’ll definitely have to put this on the list of things to do when I visit!
I’ve just recently gotten into wearing bold shades again after wearing neutrals for years. Love this color and love the name!
I switch it up; I love to try new colors!
I love pinky-coraly shades! This is gorgeous!
BOLD! I lean toward bold pink or coral shades, keeping my eyes and cheeks lught and neutral. I do prefer more of a sheer, gloss balm type, but I would be excited to try your formula that has a but more pigment involved! Thanks for the great post and giveaway opportunity : )
Def love a bold lip!!
Oh and I’m a total bold lipstick girl!
I am a stay at home mom so I tend to stick to more neutrals, but I have been looking to spice things up with more bold colors when we go out!
I wear both, for work I tent to stick to more natural, just a hint if color, but love mixing it up with some bold colors also.
I literally just logged onto your site to read more about lipstick. Mission accomplished!
I usually wear neutral colors. I buy bold colors because I LOVE them but am rarely brave enough to wear them! I wish I had known about this when I was in New York two weeks ago!!!
I tend to wear more neutral during the week but when i go out i LOVE a bold lipstick!
I typically end up with a bold red or something completely neutral. I would love to try a fun summertime color!
Xo
Lauren
That is such a cool concept! You had more self-control than I would have…There’s no way I could have left after making only one lipstick! That color is perfect for you, too! 🙂
Yikes, I just realized that I need to answer a specific question! I usually wear lipstick when I want to have a bold look, so I will gravitate towards the bold colors most of the time!
Love this color! I typically wear neutral, but I have been loving bold corals lately. Very fun for summer!
I used to be more of a neutral girl (and still go that way when I’m at work- nurse at a children’s hospital), but lately I’ve been wearing some bold colors. Think Schiap from Nars, and some orange/coral shades.
I love this! I’ll have to try it next time I’m in NYC!
I love to go bold, but I always feel like it makes my already smaller eyes look TINY. Any advice?
This is so cool. I love bite lip products. The color turned out gorgeous!
http://palsywalsyblog.blogspot.ca/
I typically wear neutral lipstick but after you reviewed the Tarte lipsticks I went out and bought the poppy shade and I love it! I’m looking forward to wearing more and more brighter colors!
Last summer, I was all about the bold. This year, though, I find myself reaching more and more for soft neutrals. I love to change it up depending on my mood and my outfit, though! Thanks for sharing about Bite. I hadn’t heard of it and, since I’m moving to NYC for work later this summer, am very much looking forward to checking it out.
i love bold shades!
I prefer neutral/nude tones, but they seem to show every flaw in my dry lips, so I generally end up wearing a more bold/darker pink or red. This shade is gooooooorgeous!
Would love to win. It’s gorgeous.
Typically neutral, but I love a bold lip to spice it up every once in awhile! The color you made is fab!
I wear neutral colors. I have had a hard time finding the perfect shade. Looks so fun to make your own in NYC!
It depends where I’m going, for work I lean towards neutral and for going out a bold statement lip!
I typically go neutral but have been trying to do bold lips more and more for fun nights out or even to look more put together at work!
Fun! What a cool concept. Love the shade you designed.
I am starting to wear more bold lip colors – you have inspired me! 🙂
This sounds like a lot of fun, but I think it would take me forever to choose just the right color!
For every-day I would say I prefer natural lip colors, but whenever I can I will put on some bolt lips! They just make you feel spacial XD…
I never heard of this before! How cool! I’d love to try it!
I love a bold lipstick!
OMG I love that color. I would love to win this.
What an awesome experience! Going to put this on my list of things to do!!
That shade is so pretty! Is it bad I want to plan a trip to just make lipsticks? Ha!
What a cool idea! I would love to wear more lipstick at all if I knew the right one to wear. This looks great on you!
That seems like such an awesome experience! If I ever make it to NYC, I have to try that! Not to mention, I’ve really been wanting to try a Bite lipstick for awhile now…
I typically wear nude or neutral shades, but I love the bold color on your skin tone. This is making me want to test my boundaries a bit!
I tend to prefer natural lip colors, but I’m trying hard to branch out!
I typically wear nudes but would love to try this color!
I love bold colours! I feel so confodent when i wear a dark red lip 🙂
i absolutely love your blog, especially your mommy posts!!
For day-to-day, I wear neutral shades, sometimes only lip gloss. But recently, I’ve been adding bolder colors to my collection, and love them!
I used to be terrified of bold lipsticks but I’ve ventured out a few months ago and now I LOVE wearing bold colors! 🙂
I go for bold colors! The bolder the better!
Beautiful color!
That sounds like so much fun! I’m generally a gloss or Chapstick girl, but I think it would be fun to try a bold color – especially for all the summer weddings I have coming up!
I love both neutral and bold! It just depends on my mood. 🙂
This looks so cool!
This is so cool!
I always go neutral…
I usually wear a neutral, but want to get more bold ones in my collection!
I dont usually wear a bold statement color, but I would like to start experimenting more and this looks like a beautiful color to kick start summer!
I’m usually a chapstick kind of girl because I’ve found that lipstick colors tend to change after being applied for 10-15 minutes. When I do wear lipsticks, I tend to go more neutral for fear of looking like a crazy lady with some weird shade of lipstick. lol! I would love to go to this store and have a custom color made for me!
Very cool idea! Love the color. I typically go for a more neutral shade but am starting to branch out and try out the bold colors.
I used to be a strictly neutrals gal, but I’ve been really loving bolder colors lately!
What a fun experience! Love the color you chose!
That’s a great color and sounds super fun to make!
This is too cool! I love all the custom shops that are coming out! I’ve heard of a custom perfume but not lipstick. I like to mix my lip color up depending on my mood. I love a bold lip but equally love the simplicity of a nude 🙂
I typically wear pinks, but I’m loving “bold flamingo”!
What a fun place to go!! I always like a little color for lipstick-so bold i guess. AND its great your husband is such a good sport to go with you for lipstick!!! Glad you had a nice getaway.
That is a gorgeous shade! I usually wear sheer colors that are close to my lip color or that have a pink or berry tone to them. My absolute favorite lipstick is hello sailor from lipstick Queen. It looks horrifying in the tube with it being blue and all, but it gives the lips a beautiful berry stained look.
I love a nice bold lip! This time of year I tend to lean towards bright coral colors and orangey redish tones. Every now and then I like to throw in a bright fun pink shade to keep myself on my toes and be adventurous! Love the shade you created and I may need to make this a stop on my next NYC trip! 🙂
My daughter & I love a girls trip to NYC! And this will go on our next to-do-list while there. It’s funny that you just posted this, because I was just out looking for a lipstick that is exactly like this! I had thought, coral/pinkish, would be easy to find? But it isn’t! Did buy a Laura Mercier lipstick, but after getting it home it is too orangey! Poo!! So would love to try your creation!!
I usually wear a very subtle hint of color if anything, I’m not very adventurous, because I just never know what will look good on me with my fair skin and dark hair. This color looks amazing on you, and I would love to try it myself!
Love it! So pretty!
I typically don’t wear lip color at all, but I’ve been experimenting with some neutral shades. I love the finished look lip color gives my face. I’d love to experiment with your bold pink flamingo shade! I think a bold lip would complement and balance my eye glasses.
Fun!
Go bold or go home!
Very cool. Love the color.
That is so cool! Love the shade you created.
I love, love, LOVE bold lipstick!!
This is such a cool giveaway! I would love to win!
I typically wear neutral shades, but I’m trying to be more adventurous and wear more bold colors!
This is such an awesome idea, I would love to check it out next time I make it to NYC! You created a beautiful lip color! Thanks for sharing your experience.
I tend to prefer slightly bolder colors. Sheer but bright at the same time.
I normally wear more nude color lipsticks but I’ve been trying to be more adventurous lately and try new shades that I normally wouldn’t wear. The shade you created looks beautiful and I would love to be able to try it myself!
Love this color and the proces! Can’t wait to try next time I go to NYC!!
What a fun idea! I love this color! I would have been deciding between vanilla and mint too!
I love bold lip colors.
I am definitely a neutral lip color person. I have one or two bold colors for special occasions but I would love to start having an everyday bold lip color!
I just need to get back into the groove of wearing lipstick at ALL! This color is amazing!
I love a great bold colour! Awesome colour choice!
What a cool store and experience! I usually stick to neutrals but have been trying to go a little more bold with summer here.
I love the chance that you were able to make your own lipstick – I love a neutral lip color – The color that you made looks great on you
Love this whole idea! What a fun process! And the end color you got is beautiful. Would love to try this myself someday 🙂
I like a sheer gloss for the office and a bold color for nights out and fun events on the weekends!
Love bold lip color! The shade you created is awesome!
I tend to lean towards neutral shades, but just recently started trying reds and brighter colors! Branching out!
I typically wear nude shades but would love to try more bold shades!
LOVE this! It looks awesome on you, too!
I love this! I typically wear a more bold color at night, or for something extra fancy 😉 Otherwise, I wear something neutral like a sheer lipgloss or chapstick….. I am a stay-at-home-mom so if I wear color during the day, my baby will end up with lipstick marks on her forehead! 🙂
I wish I could go myself, but this is the next best thing! Beautiful color!
LOVE the color and the whole idea of making your own lipstick color is awesome!
I typically go bold because I have yet to find the perfect shade of nude!
I usually wear neutral, but I am in search of a great bold shade!
This is such a cool idea. In my late 20s, I’m just beginning to embrace lipstick. So far I wear mostly nudes & light pinks, but I’ve been gearin up to try some bold summer colors. The one you concocted is beautiful!
This is awesome! I usually wear neutral lip color but I would love to experiment with Bold Flamingo!
I typically wear very neutral lipstick, but have been dying to try a statement color!!!
I love your posts! I am a neutral color kind of person but recently started experimenting with color for my lip color! It’s kind of fun to be BOLD. : )
I wear neutral colors at work and more casually, but I absolutely LOVE to use a bold color to dinner or drinks with friends. It’s a great way to take your look to the next level:)
Im usually a pinky or orange-y/coral lipstick wearer, but this shade looks awesome! Could you do a post about lipstick shades and skin tones?
I love a good bold color for lipstick! I really love the color you created!
I like to switch it up. If I feel like there’s a lot going on with the rest of my makeup or even my outfit, I keep the lipstick neutral. If everything else is very subdued, I like having lipstick that pops.
Such a pretty color on you!!! This sounds like so much fun 🙂
Neutral is my jam. I love corals, but more muted than bold. I tried bright red once or twice but it wasn’t the right shade/undertone for me. I’d love to try this though! It looks like such a fun color!
I would love to win this bold lip color!!!
Neutral, almost always! I should be a little bolder, but I keep finding excuses. 😉
Usually I wear nude but I am looking for a fun bold color to try!
I love this idea since I’m forever trying to find THE perfect shade of lipstick and never get it just right. This is just GENIUS!!!
I typically wear neutral shades. Thanks for thinking of us – what a fun experience!!
That is so cool! Love the shade!
How fun!! I would totally do that!!
What an amazing experience! I can’t wait to do it myself. I wear bold! And that color is fabulous.
I wear a mauvy pink during the work week that I would consider neutral, but most my friends tell me that for them, it’s quite bold. I go bolder on the weekends or nights out. I truly believe a colored lip finishes any look.
I love this idea of creating your own lipstick, sounds like every girls dream! Since I’m a natural redhead, one would assume I’d only wear the neutrals, but not me I like to mix it up, why not, it’s fun being a girl!
I tend to go a little more neutral/pink. I actually really like my natural lip shade…but on special occasions I love to break out a bright red.
What a cool concept! I usually wear neutral shades but if I dress up I like a pop of color on my lips!
I tend toward neutrals.
I normally opt for more neutral shades, so this would be the perfect opportunity for me to try something brighter – such a gorgeous shade!
That color looks amazing! What a great statement lipstick!
I tyically wear a more neutral lip throughout the week, but LOVE a bold lip on the weekends or date nights!
I usually wear very neutral colors, like pinks, beiges. Its what I’m comfortable with. But this color is so pretty & out there. It’s looks wonderful on you late (:!
I love that color on you! I would love to win one!
Neutral
I often wear more neutral shades, but when I need an extra something something I’ll go for a bold lip. Always puts me in a good mood!
I ALWAYS wear a neutral but am thinking it might be time for a bright! This sounds like a fun addition to a NYC girl trip- custom lipstick!
wow! What a cool concept of creating your own shade lippy! I love bold colors!
I typically wear bold colors! I love the way that lipstick pulls together a look! Would love to try the color that you made. Looks great!
I usually wear neutral colors but I LOVE bold colors for summer!
Well that’s pretty much the coolest thing I’ve ever seen. Wow! I want to try that! What a stunning colour you came up with too, that’s right up my alley. Amazing! 🙂
I’ve recently in the past couple of years branched out to bold colors. Just haven’t found the perfect shade yet!
I love this idea! I typically wear neutrals. That said, I prefer brights…I just feel too ‘fancy’ when i wear them and they don’t fit into my daily life!
I love to wear a bold lip! The shade you created is gorgeous! I’m a makeup artist, so I would definitely love to do this if I’m ever in NYC! So fun! 🙂
Day to day I do a neutral lip (usually just some burt’s bees!) but when I’m feeling it, I definitely go bold!
I generally go with neutral! Bold is more special occasion for me.
So much fun!!! I’ve been dying to try a “statement” lip, but i’m too chicken to spend the $$!
I typically wear bold lipstick – I tend to keep everything else simple. I was in London recently and did the custom perfume experience, fragrance lab, at Selfridges. It was so much fun, especially since I loved the perfume, even though it was very different from anything I have worn before. I hope it expands to other department stores.
I love both, but I usually lean towards more bold colors.
I typically wear neutral shades.
Such a cool idea and pretty color!
I typically wear more neutral shades of lipstick, but ALWAYS want to try and gold bold. Being fair skinned, I just haven’t had the nerve. I see how lovely bold lipsticks look on you and I so want to take the plunge and try.
I typically stick with neutral colors for work and go bold on the weekends.
The color looks fabulous on you! I don’t wear a lot of lipstick, more of a gloss girl. But, I tend to stick to more neutral shades or light pinks.
I LOVE this shade! I have a good mix of both bold and neutral lipsticks. All depends on my mood and the rest of my makeup.
I went to a place like this to have my wedding make up done. They made an amazing berry colored lipstick for me and custom blended a gorgeous champagne pink eye shadow. It’s so neat to get see what you were thinking in your head come to life!
When I do wear lipstick, I tend to go more neutral. I’d never heard of a place making custom shades-that’s awesome!
I typically wear neutral shades, but I like something bolder for date nights 🙂
I end up buying almost every lip product you recommend since we seem to have a similar skin tone. I feel you made this one just for us, haha!
What a fun concept! I have never been to NYC, but when I go, I plan to visit Bite. That color looks beautiful on you!
I typically reach for a more neutral, MLBB color, but would live to try a more bold color. What a fun experience! Thanks!
I used to wear mainly neutrals but this summer I am venturing out and trying new bold colors. It has been a lot of fun.
I love bold shades, but on a daily base I normal just wear a lip shimmer. Love your bold Flamingo shade. Great job on that creating that catchy name.
That color is perfect for summer! I love how rich it is and it looks fantastic on you.
I’m usually a subtle natural lipstick girl, but love bold for special occasions.
Love, love, love lipstick!
I love the color! What a fun store!
Wow, so neat!! I normally wear a neutral lipstick, but I do like a bold every once and a while. The color looks great on you!
I love Bite lip products because they are free from harsh chemicals so I’ve been dying to try one every time I’m in Sephora! Can’t wait to pop in soon and will DEFINITELY be making my own this summer in NYC!
And I love bright, bold lipsticks because to me, why bother putting it on if it’s not going to stand out!
I am a natural girl most days except for summer! In summer I love experimenting with bold, fun colors for that extra brightness and whimsy!
I usually wear pretty bold colors.
I tend to go more neutral, but that’s because I’ve had a hard time finding a good bold color that doesn’t look funny on me. This is a beautiful color of lipstick! I’d love to try it!! And if I’m ever in New York, I definitely want to check this place out!
I love a bold lip color and peachy eye. One of my all-time faves! It’s bad that more than one person has told me the first thing they noticed about me was my lips:)
if i’m going to wear lipstick – i go bold. bright reds are my favorite!
what a cool experience!
That is such a pretty color, I wonder if there’s a similar store somewhere in D.C.!! Flamingos are an inside joke with my family, so the name you picked for your awesome new statement lipstick definitely caught my eye!
Love this shade! 🙂
So fun!
It makes your eyes look really blue! So pretty!!
I’m not very brave, but have given it a try once in a while. Looks like a fun place to spend a couple of hours!!!
I usually wear a neutral, sheer color – but I would love to start trying bold!
For every day wear I like a pretty neutral (that angelic nude is prob my fav color yet!). Special occasions call for special bright colors though! This seems like such a fun process!
Thanks!
Nicole B.
bold lip color is my favorite… Love the flamingo shade. it has the right balance of pink.
I tend to wear something neutral for my job as an ER nurse but usually wear something a little brighter when I’m not working.
That’s really cool you got to personally “make” the lipstick! 🙂
Also, it really depends on my mood or where I am going. It’s a 50-50 for me. Bold or neutral, I am ok with both! 🙂
My friends and I are planning a NYC Trip to celebrate our 30th birthdays. We are looking for things to do and places to see. – this looks perfect! Thanks for blogging about them.
I have emailed them requested an appointment. – I tend to go sheer/ nude when it comes to lip colour. Your bold flamingo is very pretty.
Thanks!
What a fun place! I usually prefer to wear a bold lipstick color.
What an incredibly FUN thing to do. And a custom souvenir! So neat. I will for sure be looking into this if we ever make it there.
I wear a nude color but trying to find a bold color
I wear neutral on most days but love my bolds colors on nights out.
I love to wear a bold lip with a plan white tee and cute boyfriend jeans!! I think it brings the whole outfit together. I tend to wear more neutral colors during the work day. The Bite store looks really neat, and I hope I get to try it out soon!!
Wow, what an incredible idea! I’ve heard of personalised perfumes but never lipsticks. It seems so clever, and I’d love to see the process of a lipstick being created. Will 100% do this if I’m ever in the vicinity. I’ve only recently heard of Bite but apparently they’re the new big name in lip products – will have to check out some of their stuff (fingers crossed it’s available in the UK). Lovely post, the shade you created is gorgeous.

I usually wear neutral colored lipsticks with maybe some sheer colored lipgloss on top…but I’ve been trying to branch out a little more and experiment! The lipstick you designed looks awesome- it looks fun and bold but totally wearable. Thanks for the giveaway 🙂
I have heard of Bite beauty but I had no idea the lipstick lab existed! What a cool experience- but I would be way too overwhelmed with options, though!
I would love to try this some day, so much fun!
I usually vary between a bold & neutral lip….this color is gorgeous!
i’ve purchased every lipstick you review (okay, maybe just 2 – a tarte one and a UD one) and i haven’t been let down yet!
This looks like so much fun!! The color you made is so pretty!
I normally go for a neutral color, but I think this is the summer to try brighter shades!
just in time for summer colors!
I am mostly a neutral lipstick person. I do mix it up every now and then with a bold red I found a year or so ago. I would love to work a few more bold colors into my options.
Do you typically wear neutral or bold shades of lipstick?
Day to day I wear a coral neutral but date nights is all about the bold! I like my hubby to notice! This color would definitely get some attention!
My 2014 goal was to wear lipstick more often. So far I haven’t done a great job, BUT when I do wear lipstick I try to go for a more bold color. I love the way it spices up a regular makeup look!
I typically wear pinks and corals, but I’ve been trying to wear bolder colors for spring and summer. 🙂 Thanks Kate!
xo Always, Abby
That looks like a lot fun! I would love the experience of creating my own shade of lipstick! Hopefully, I’ll get to New York one day!
I LOVE THIS! And I love the shade you created. I don’t even know where I would start if I tried this; definitely was good to go in with a vision!
I typically only wear neutrals, but the more I read your posts, the more you inspire me to go bold. Thank you for sharing!
I typically wear neutral shades during the day and go for more bold shades at night on the weekends! This is such a beautiful bold, summer shade.
I love lipstick! I usually wear neutral pinks (Bobbie Brown) but I am open to try any color!
I’m a neutral girl, but love a bold lip to spice things up!
I tend to go with a subtle lip. This is so cool though!
Love that color!
I generally opt for more neutral colors but every once In a while on special occasions I wear a more bold lip color. I’ve never heard of that store but it sounds awesome!
I love to use a bold lip color as a stain!
You are looking gorgeous. I need a real, beautiful true Red Lipstick. Great giveaway.
To answer your question I am about half and half. I sometimes wear Neutrals and sometimes Bolder, Brighter Lips. Lately though I am all about Bright Lipsticks.
Hope you and the baby boy are doing well. Ada. =)
What a perfect shade! I think we have a nearly identical skin tone too so I hope it would look as great on me 🙂
I almost always wear neutral shades because it’s easy, but love the way I feel in a bold color.
I typically wear neutral shades, but I’ve been looking for a bold lipstick for a while 🙂 The color looks amazing on you! 🙂
I usually wear neutral colors, but I always love when I take the chance on a fun color like this!!
I’m just starting to branch out into lipstick-for some reason I feel like only my mom and grandma are old enough to wear it! I tend to wear subtle pinks, but every now and then I’ll wear a bold red for fun!
I usually wear a neutral lip but would love to try this color!
I love this lip color! I typically wear more neutral, subtle shades, so would love to try this!
I am gonna have to do this, I love red lipstick, but it is so hard to find a color that just right for my complexion.
Oh my gosh! I can’t wait to try this!
I am usually more of a neutral lip wearer. I want to try something more bold, I just don’t know what to pick!
Amazing process. Lip color is daunting!
I usually wear subtle shades but with love to break out with a bold red.
So fun! I will be in NYC next week and will definitely be stopping by!
I love a bright, bold lip color for summer! Just add it with a lot of mascara and some bronzer and it looks fresh and youthful- my favorite!
I typically wear neutral but lately have been going for more color. This sounds like so much fun
I want to go there!
Bold or neutral… Depends on the day!!
I never wore lip color until I started reading your blog!! But now I love it…my favorite is a good berry red shade. This place sounds awesome and I NEED to go there next time I’m in NYC!!
I love bold color, but generally tend to stick to neutrals and glosses for daily wear.
How fun!! Absolutely gorgeous choice!
I usually always wear neutral shades but I would love to start wearing bolder shades from time to time.
I usually don’t wear lipstick, but when I do, it’s a neutral tone. This shade looks beautiful. I would love to go there someday!
I typically wear neutral shades, but love going bold for special occasions!
I typically wear natural lipsticks. Seeing this makes me want to go to NY right now to do this!!
What a cool concept! The color is stunning on you!
Love love love this idea!
Bold!
I’m kind of boring in my choices – I’m blond with fair skin and normally choose pale pinks and neutrals. Love the bold color!
LOVE this idea! I just told one of my friends who lives in the West Village about this place. I can’t wait to visit on my next trip to NYC! Cheers! Jennifer pinterestdreams.blogspot.com
Kate – I will be in NYC two weeks from today! If I can talk my son into in, I will definitely make a trip to Bite! Thanks for the info! ps I will be making a stop at a Mister Softee that you turned me onto two years ago! 🙂
Ok, I have to try this place next time I’m in NYC! Love the lip color you created…would love to win it!
I used to wear neutral but after I have been following your blog have mixed it up to include more bold colors!
I recently went to bite and had them make a bold, fun color for my girls trip to Vegas. I would love to add this one to my collection!
Hi Kate! I usually wear neutrals but love the color you created! Thanks!!
I typically wear neutral shades, but I’m getting inspired to try new things thanks to you and other blogger/vloggers.
I love this idea and never knew it existed until now! The shade that Kate got is stunning. I would love to have my own custom shades as lipstick is my go-to for a more dramatic look.
Neutrals with a bit of color, but bold for a statement for sure.
This is great! I can’t wait to try it the next time I am in NYC!
I forgot to answer the question! Go bold, or go home!
What a beautiful shade and how fun to do! I love a bold lipstick!
Great color! I love going bold occasionally!
I’m not really bold, but not really neutral either…I would say somewhere in between. My go to is a cross between a coral pink and a bubblegum pink….my all time favorite color.
Good luck, everyone!!
I usually choose a nude color but I love this one!
Kate, that color is SO pretty. I am generally a bold color person, but sometimes at work I prefer more subtle shades.
I can’t believe I didn’t know Bite makes personalized lipsticks. I have to check it out one day! I like a bold lip!
I love that shade! If i wear lipstick, it’s definitely a bold statement color.
I typically wear neutral shades but would love to go more bold!
Love the bold color!
I love this color! It looks adorable.
Typically neutral, but for a special occasion I’ll sometimes go bold and I usually get a lot of comments on how great I look, lol! Maybe I should go bold more often.
I love bold colors! And your blog. You’re awesome! Keep up the good work.
What a great color! I usually wear neutral shades when I remember to wear any kind of lipstick at all.
I usually wear a pinky/brown with a neutral gloss over it.
I usually go neutral but eager to try something more bold. I work in NYC and have never heard of Bite! Can’t wait to try it.
The color is PERFECT for summer! I love a bold lip and more neutral eye…with some slightly winged liner of course! I was actually looking for a color similar to this at MAC but couldn’t find the perfect orange-red-pink mix. PICK ME! PICK ME! Ps- I love the name “Bold Flamingo”!!!
I usually wear lip gloss, so not much color.
I usually wear more neutrals than bolds, but would love to change that!
I love love LOVE a bold lip. All year long.
That color is awesome! I need that!
I usually prefer to go for neutral eyes and bold lipstick, especially coral/orange ones!
What a cool store! Would love to check it out whenever I go to NYC! Fingers crossed I win this color!
i love wearing bold and nude colors. it just depends on my mood.
I love that color! I am new to lipstick and have only tried a few neutrals so far, but would love to step out and try something else!
I love the bold color and neutral at times
I usually only wear gloss but this is super cool!
I normally wear more neutral shades but I have been trying a little more color this spring and I am loving it so far! The shade you have here is beautiful!
I love that color!!! I have been loving trying brighter lip colors rather than “safe” nude colors.
Love it! I usually choose neutral but that’s because I never know what bold shade to choose!
I love that shade! I normally wear more neutral colors day to day but I like bold for nights out and weekends.
This is a gorgeous color on you. If I happen to wear lipstick, it is a more neutral shade, however, I am always looking to try to be a little bit more daring and girly. 🙂
I typically wear neutral colors. What a fun thing to do!!!
Bold lip color for me!
Add this to my list of things to do in New York! Love the bold color for a night out or future holiday parties!
Both! I kind of go through phases! I’ve been in a nude phase for a while but I feel the brights coming back soon!
I typically wear natural lip shades except for a night out on the town – then I will try something bold like red or coral.
What a great color on you! I live in NYC just a few blocks off Prince St and didn’t know about this place… it definitely just went on my to do list!!
I am usually the kind of girl who wears a brown smoky eye with a nude or light pink sheer gloss, but every now and then a girl just has to let her spunky flag fly! Because I am so fair skinned, I tend to stick with bold pink colors, corals, or a bright red to really compliment my skin, but give my lips some sass!
The color combo you created is fabulous! It’s classy, but fierce! This shade can definitely be used for an everyday, subtle make-up look or a spicy, “I’m gonna pain the town,” look!
Ah this is amazing! As. A beauty guru myself it can’t believe I’ve never gone here! Your shade is beautiful and I’d love to add my first non-neutral color to my collection! Thanks kate!
When I where lipstick, which isn’t super often, I go for fairly bold raspberry colors. I’m trying to branch out and this color is amazing!
I typically wear neutral (coral/pink). I have been wanting to try a red shade, and this color looks great! :).
This would be such a fun girls weekend activity!!
Oh and I’m trying to go more bold – I realize, as I get a little older, I need more color!! 😉
I’m going to NYC in 2 weeks and would LOVE to do this! That shade looks fabulous on you!
I’m a bold lipstick girl all the way—go big or go home!
I typically wear more neutral colors, but I do love a good statement color!
I’m more of a neutral lipstick girl myself, but I’m trying to break into brighter colors this summer! 🙂
The lipstick I wear typically depends on my mood! But usually for every day, I stick with a more neutral color.
This would be so fun!
This seems like such a cool process! The color you made is beautiful. I usually lean towards more neutral shades of lip color because I like to play it safe, but bold colors are fun every now and then.
Love my neutrals, but a bold color is fun every once in a while!
I love me a bold lip! Gorg!
I’m normally a neutral girl but in the last 6 months or so I am trying to get a little closer to the bold side of things.
Such a great color! I normally wear neutral shades but I’m trying to be more adventurous!
Oops, forgot to answer question! … I do not usually wear bold lip colors, but wouldn’t mind this one.
So much fun! I can’t wait for our next trip to NYC so I can try this!
So Fun! Great color!
What a cool store!
What a memorable experience! If I’m ever in NYC, I’ll definitely be doing this! Thanks for the great giveaway, Kate. I generally go for a color that’s a “your lips but better” shade, like Bite Fig is my fav at the moment. I do want to venture into a bit more daring shades for the summer, with a more natural eye.
I usually wear more neutral lip colors. I find it hard to pull off bold colors but I really like the color you created!
That is such a cool experience! I only wear lipstick once or twice a week, and when I do, it’s something bold! Why not, right? 🙂
Love this color! Looks beautiful 🙂
I normally don’t do bold lips, but here lately I’m trying to change up my makeup to be more polished, and grown up. I’ve already bought several products you’ve suggested
I usually wear more neutral colors, but I love a good bold shade for summer!
I love both a bold and neutral colors……it just depends on my mood!
I love a red lip, though most days i just use some lip balm. I’ve yet to find the right shade for me so maybe Bold Flamingo would be great!
I like this bold lip color. I usually just wear gloss or Chapstick but when I’m all dressed up to go out I like to use some color.
I love both neutral and bold! It depends on what I’m wearing and my mood that day. 🙂 The color looks great on you!! So glad your husband joined you, mine would have done the same. 🙂
I typically wear more light pink/neutral lip shades. However, I’m drawn to a bold lip. Because I’m naturally fair, with blonde hair (like you), I’m intimidated by choosing my own bold lip color. I would love to try your custom color! (: It looks beautiful on you!
I’m slowly becoming more, and more adventurous when it comes to lipstick. Prior to a few months ago, I only wore neutral gloss. I was too nervous to try anything bright. Now, I’m building my collection of vivacious colors of lipsticks and I LOVE that extra pop it brings to my everyday look! I love neutral, but the occasional bold is exciting!
I prefer bold shades! This is beautiful!
I am normally a more neutral lipstick wearer but am willing to try a bolder color. I have found that a nice lipstick can really enhance your look.
Wow, I’m really loving the color and I generally stick with neutrals! How pretty. And what a neat thing to do in NYC.
I typically wear a shade of lipstick that is in between neutral and bold. It’s not a nude color, but it also doesn’t stand out like the ‘Bold Flamingo’ lipstick. I think a bright hue would be fun to try!
I wear both! I love a pop of color during Ohio’s long dreary winter but a great coral for summer and fall.
I’m more of a neutral normally, but I’ve loved your recommendations of Dior, Albiet, Tarte and Urban Decay. So far my fav color is Tarte but formula is Albiet!
I don’t have anything like this color! How pretty!
This is the most beautiful shade on you!! I hope I get to wear it also!
Love this color and the whole experience! Day to day, I typically wear neutrals. But I love a bolder color for night/weekends.
ooh! How fun!!! what a pretty color too!
I typically wear neutral shades, but this looks like such a fun color – especially for summer!
What a fun experience! I usually were neutral colors.
I usually wear neutral. My usual color is syrup by Mac. I dream of visiting New York City and I will now be adding this to the list of places to visit.
I usually wear a bold lip! I love adding colour to make a boring outfit more exciting!
I usually wear the colors you recommend! Lol I’m not very creative so I just go with whatever you say
Please pick me!
Those shades are so lovely! And what a fun idea for a store!!!
I typically only wear a gloss, but this color is VERY STUNNING on you!!! I might have to give it a try.
I typically only wear sheer shades of lipstick. But, since I come from a family of lipstick fanatics (My mom and my grandmother don’t leave the house without a little “color.”) I figured it is time for me to branch out.
I love a neutral but am always envious of women who can easily rock the bold lip color.
Love this color! I tend to stick to more neutral shades, but I love the pop of color that this one gives. Good job! 🙂
I typically wear a neutral, but your blog is actually what inspired me to finally start trying some bolder colors. Not too often, still, but they are fun!
So fun! I’d love to do this!
I’ve always wanted to go to New York–this is now added to my list of things to do there! For lipstick shades… You’ve definitely inspired me to branch out! Ever since you showed Pink in the Afternoon by Revlon for “your lips but better” that’s become a neutral fav. But when I’m wearing colors like coral I lean more toward a bright lip. 🙂 Love what you picked!!
I have never heard of this before! Sounds amazing!
What fun! I typically wear a shade just a little darker than my natural lip color–just a hint of pink, really. But it’s fun to experiment with bolder colors too.
I wear both equally! I live here in NYC and can’t wait to run down to the lab and make my own lipstick!
I tend to wear more subtle shades most of the time. But every so often I wear a really statement color just to shake it up. Usually in the summer.
I used to go for more neutrals, but the last few years I’ve loved brights!!! I feel like it wakes up my face!
How fun! I am adding this to my bucket list of things to do!!!
i like more neutral for everyday, but love a fun red or pink for an evening out!
What a FUN thing to do! The last time I was in NYC was when I was 18 and it was with my whole family, but I didn’t even know you could do something like this! I knew about the whole create your own perfume thing but not this! I think I like the lipstick much better. The last couple years I tended to wear a neutral lip and play up my eyeshadow, but the last year or so I’ve been obsessed with a bright lip! I had all these neutrals so I’m now working on building up my bold lipstick collection. The color you created is absolutely perfect!!
Love this and it looks great on you! Most the time I go with a bold lip color since I feel it matches my olive skin tone better. I am always drawn to neutral colors but it’s rare when I find one that I want to wear all the time.
I usually wear neutral but would love to try a bold color!!
I typicallly go for neutral, just a shade darker than my natural lip color, but I live to experiment with bold colors!
I don’t typically wear any lipstick. I have really narrow lips and I can’t figure out how to not get it on my teeth while wearing it. I did just buy my first tube of it though and I’m going to give it another shot. That color looks amazing on you!
when I wear lipstick, it’s usually nude tones. But am willing to try some new colors!
Neutral….as in chapstick! Bold colors terrify me, but I would love to step outside my comfort zone.
I try to mix it up and wear bold shades every now and then but my day to day is neutral. Love this shade you created!
I usually wear more neutral shades, but I would love to try bold flamingo!
wow sounds like so much fun, I could spend a lot of time making beautiful colors!! love the ones you created very nice!!
I typically wear neutral, but I LOVE wearing bright lipstick!
I enjoy both! It usually depends on my mood, but if I had to choose, I would choose bold!
Love, LOVE lipstick and never go out the door without wearing it! My coloring is similar to yours although I am much older- almost always go BOLD! Enjoyed the whole process of picking/making your own personal shade – will definitely check out Bite if I ever get back to NYC! Would love to win this lipstick!
I love a nude lip for work and a bold lip for play! Thanks for the great giveaway. 🙂
OMG, how did I not know this existed?! Bite is my favorite brand for lipstick, I will definitely be doing this when I go to NYC in September.
Sounds like a ton of fun!
Oh my gosh that is awesome! My husband and I went to New York this past Christmas and I hate I didn’t know about this then!!! That looks like so much fun and that lipstick was definitely made for you girl 😉
Like The Yogurt Fashion. DIY. Beauty
Oh, and I wear neutral AND bold, just depends on what eye look I’m doing and my mood. 🙂
Generally neutral but I’m trying to go bold!
Statement. Always. Like always, always.
I would love to try this!
It depends on my outift and mood but I definitely like to mix it up!
Typically I go for a bolder color when I wear lipstick. I feel like it’s like wearing a bold necklace, it’s a fun accessory!
What a pretty color! I usually wear pinks but that would be a fun color to try!
Bold colors all the way! I don’t accessorize as much as I should, but I always will wear a bold lip and neutral eye. What a gorgeous color!
I wear both neutral and bold shades depending on my mood and what I’m wearing.
What a fun thing to do. I’ll be adding this to my future New York to-do list for sure!
Not sure if you’ll ship it to Canada, but I’ll take a chance anyway! I typically wear neutrals.
Awesome shade looks like a fun thing to do
Gracious! What a fun adventure. I would love to try this — adding to my list of ‘next time I am in NYC — and the color you created is fabulous.
I usually like to draw the focus to my eyes, so I keep my lips pretty subtle, but not neutral. Enough color to be color but not a nude lip. 🙂
I love this color on you – and the name! I read that same article and look forwarding to trying out the process on my next NYC trip. Thanks for the extra insight.
I usually go with neutrals unless it is a special occasion! Sounds like a fun store!
Love the colour. I usually stay neutral but love the colour. The process sounds like such fun. I have not heard of this before. Thanks for sharing.
Amazing!
I like bold colors if I’m wearing lipstick (which I don’t usually do) – for every day I just use the Fresh Sugar Rose balm or maybe a slightly brighter tint.
I’m definitely a neutral lip kind of person. But, I wish I went bold more often! I want to try a purple lip!
Beautiful color!
I am definitely more neutral, unless I wear red or a bright pink. Sometimes, you’ve just got to.
I am a neutral girl, but want to be comfortable with more bolds!
I typically reach for neutrals, but I’ve been thinking lately that I need to experiment with bolder colors!
I normally wear a neutral color, but it’s nice to have a bold color just in case you feel adventurous!
Bold! It looks great on you! I have been wanting to try Bite. I have heard awesome things!
I prefer kind of a rosey neutral rather than bright for most days! Wearing bright shades can be kind of intimidating!
Seriously? You are amazing. And this sounds like so much fun! I didn’t really need another reason to want to go to New York but I am totally adding this to the checklist of things to do!
I just recently started wearing bolder colors on my lips…my current favorite is Whimsical, a Revlon ColorBurst lacquer color. Love love love it.
I’m normally not a lipstick person, but perhaps I just have never found the right shade. This would be lots of fun!
I tend to switch it up – day time neutral and evening bold. This shade looks lovely!!
Beautiful color!
Neutral…I’m trying to find the right bold for me!
Also… I love a both. A bold lip is fun but so it a neutral. It just depends on my mood and outfit!
I love the color – looks so summery and fun. Can’t wait to try this the next time we are in the city!
I love a bright lip! Neutrals make me look awful so there’s my excuse for reds and fuschias and oranges!
Go Bold!
I’m a chapstick girl normally, but have been working to broaden my horizons! Coral-ish shades actually look great on me (pale girls for the win!).
So interesting … this is something I would love to do. Thanks for sharing the entire process!
I usually go for the neutral when i am working but on my free time bold.
LOVING the deeper + moodier lighting and styling i these photos!! gorgeous color! Thanks for an awesome giveaway!
LOVING the deeper + moodier lighting and styling i these photos!! gorgeous color! Thanks for an awesome giveaway!
I used to be a chapstick only type of girl, but over the past couple of months I have really started to enjoy wearing bolder colors on my lips! I think bold flamingo would be the PERFECT addition to my new obsession 🙂
Also, this may be my new favorite color on you! Love pinks on you, but I think the bolder shades look fantastic!
i wear both! so fun, i want to go do this too!
BOLD is my jam!
I work in a very conservative office so only nudes during the week… but bold color on the weekends!
I usually wear shades of pink more on the neutral side. But love a bold lip sometimes and that shade is perfect 🙂
You look absolutely stunning in such a bold color! I’ve just added this to my list of 1 billion things to do in New York.
Both, although bold is SO MUCH MORE FUN!! 🙂
When I am wearing lipstick, I am all over the place. On a regular basis, I will have about 5 shades in my purse. From bold, to clear, to trendy, to neutral. It all depends on the mood I am in!
i usually like a bold pink color. 🙂
How fun! A bold coral is definitely my favorite for summer.
I go through stages where I will wear only light gloss or even chap stick to more bold fun colors. More often than not its probably just a little gloss! I am in love with the bold color that you created though and would love to give it a try!
Bold all the way!
I’m a personal trainer so I don’t wear makeup to work. When I do wear it I like it to pop!
I typically wear neutral lipsticks, but I love the bold trend! I would love to have the chance to stop by Bite to create my own shade!
I typically wear more neutral shades but am looking for a statement color that I love!
Lean towards neutrals, but the older I get, the bolder I get! 🙂 This looks like such a fun experience, thanks for sharing!
I am more of a neutral girl but trying to find the right bold! 🙂
Adore!! I will mark that down as a must for my dream NYC trip!
I typically wear neutral lip colors, but I’m always open to something fun!
I usually wear neutral shades, especially my YLBB color. But you’ve inspired me to be a bit more bold and I’ve tried a statement shade for my bachelorette party 🙂
I love to wear bold pinks, corals, reds, and this one would be perfect for me!!
That color is so pretty! I would have done a nude too because I have a hard time finding one that I would like to wear daily that doesn’t wash me out.
Gorgeous color and great name! Thanks for taking us through the process, looked like a lot of fun!
Neutral usually, but that’s a fantastic color!
love it! what a fun idea!
I don’t wear too bold of color on my lips, but this one is absolutely stunning! I would love to get my hands on this since I don’t live anywhere close to New York.
I typically wear neutral, but it might be time for a change!
LOVE this color. it looks perfect for winter!
I absolutely love this! It reminds me of Build-A-Bear, but for adults! Love it!
I normally wear neutrals or a simple sheer gloss.. But I would try a bold color! Looks beautiful!
love the color! if i ever get a chance to go back to NYC, i will have to check this place out!
I’m such a wuss; I usually stick with neutral shades. But I have been trying to branch out more – inspired by you!
Always bold. My favorite right now is purple! I’ve even braved wearing it at work and the looks I get from it are pretty funny. 🙂
I love a bold color for night time and a subtle one for day time.
That sounds like such a fun process! I’ve never been to NYC, but I think this would be such a fun place to visit if I went!
Oh, forgot to answer the question…
I tend to stick more to neutral/pinky shades. But I’ve actually been on the hunt for a coral bright poppy lipstick 🙂
I typically wear neutrals, but I’m looking to be more bold- so this would be a great start!
What a cool experience! & I love the color you chose! I usually wear neutral shades, but I’m learning to branch out and go bold every now and then, too. 🙂
I usually wear neutrals but this is such a pretty color! I would love to try it!
I have heard of how great this brand is, and I would LOVE to custom design my own shade. I have similar coloring to you, so this shade would look good on me, I think!!
So pretty! 🙂 Everything looks good on you. :
Normally, my day to day lip color is more neutral. But, every now and then, I can’t resist a bold color like that. It’s so gorgeous!
beautiful shade. that sounds like such a fun thing to do!
I love bold lip stick! I don’t typically wear them everyday, but would love to go to this place when NYC!!
i typically wear neutrals but a bold lip color is a must some days!
I love bold lips but my husband likes neutral. So I switch it up depending on the situation.
I typically go for neutrals because I haven’t yet found a bold shade that works for me. But I’d love to try this one!
I love a juicy shade! Too light washes me out. Love the color you made!
I love a bold lip! I would love to say I wear bold colors, but I usually shy away and go for something more reserved. I do have a bright pink that I love wearing when getting all dolled up! Thanks for sharing your experience 🙂
I usually wear lighter shades as I’m pretty fair, but seeing you wear brighter shades has gotten me out of my box. I bought the Tarte Amazonian butter in peony and LOVE it. Thanks for the fun giveaway.
I love a good neutral lip in the day and spice it up at night with a bolder look!
I usually wear neutrals but I have a few bold lipsticks – love the colour on you!
This looks like the kind of color I’ve been looking for! I feel like I keep buying red-coral, and coral-reds, only to find that I want it more pink, or brighter, or whatever else. I suddenly want to take a drive to NYC!
Also what is the shirt you are wearing? The little bit I could see looks really cute!
Love a bold lip color! It’s so hard to find the perfect one.
I tend to wear just chap stick, but when I go for lipstick, I go BOLD!!
This is great. I am def. more nuetral.
I tend to wear neutral shades in pinky nudes. But when i break out some color….watch out. It feels like I am woman hear me roar! I should wear color more often; it makes me feel happy:). Love the color you created.
I wear taupy shades, but always look for different colors to wear. I do like this shade, as it isn’t too orange. Not only would it be fun to go to that store, but to work there as well!
I usually wear pink/neutral glosses. This looks so fun!!! I wish we had somewhere like this where I live!
How AWESOME!!! This is the coolest thing ever. Thanks for sharing! 🙂
Such a pretty shade!
I usually wear a nude lip (if wearing make-up); however, I really want to start branching out and looking more my age (29 not 18) so a new bold lip would be great for evenings out with my husband.
This color looks great and makes the blue of your eyes pop!
I just started to use bright shades, and I love the bold flamingo you created!
When I wear lipstick I always go bold!
Bold lip all day erry day!
I love BITE products! They always have fun colors! Your lipstick turned out great!
looks like so much fun!
I tend to stick to nude, pinkish tones, but would love to try a bolder shade! Amazing there is such a place that will make your own personalized shade, how interesting!
That is awesome. A must the next time I go to NYC!
I’m all about a MLBB shade. Trying to branch out though and Bold Flamingo looks like a winner (plus we have similar coloring and it looks fantastic on you, so here’s hoping!)
Mine mine mine
I love bite! And I can’t believe that they have this little gem back home. I am celebrating my 1st wedding anniversary in NYC (where I grew up and got married) this coming Labor day weekend, and I will definitely do this as one of my activities with my friends. Thanks for sharing!!!! What else did you do while in NY?
I LOVE this color!!!!! I usually wear neutrals but I’m trying to get into bolder colors!!!
I love that color on you! I would be so overwhelmed going into a store like that and having to pick just one color!
What a perfect bold summer lip color! Lately, I prefer to wear a bold lip color.
This is the coolest thing! I switch back and forth between neutral and bold shades, and love the color you created! It is gorgeous! Thanks for offering this give-a-way!
Kate you have me so anxious to go and make a custom lip color now. The bold flamingo color you have concocted is absolutely beautiful! It looks great with you hair color, eyes, and complexion all of which we share similar traits. I like bold and neutral lipsticks and love to change it up frequently. But bold is my favorite when trying to make a statement or stand out for the boyfriend.
I love your blog by the way, so inspiring.
I normally wear a neutral or a mauve. This color would be daring for me. Excited to try something new!
This sounds so cool!
I love that lip color! The next time I visit my sister (she lives in NYC) I will have to take her there. What a fun idea!
So neat! Love the color you chose!
I go for the neutral better but my lips color! I have never really tried out a bold color but very anxious too!! That is so awesome you got to create your own lipstick! I have heard of the brand bite from other youtubers but it very expensive for me just to buy a simple lip balm or lipstick. Great color on you by the way!! Thanks for the giveaway!
Gorgeous shade – and what a fun thing to do!!
Follow up because I totally forgot to answer the question, but I love a bold lip! Even if I’m not doing anything special, I love simple eyes (just a bit of eyeliner and mascara) and a pop of color on the lips, I think it looks so chic!
I’m a lipstick newb, I usually wear lip gloss but I’ve started adding some bold lip colors to my bag of gloss!
Neutral! I’m too chicken!
What a fun experience! I’m normally a neutral/light pink kind of gal but I would love to try a fun bold on my fair skin for summer!!
Neutral sheer when dropping the kiddies off at school and when I’m a little more awake or going out, I like to play with bolder colours!
I am going to NYC next week and would love to try this! I love the bold color.
I had no idea this place existed!!!! What a great idea… I have been wanting to create my own shade of lipstick…. never can find the right one!!! Living so close to NYC, I will definitely do a Girls Day to the city!!!
I love that you share fun things like this with us! I wear a somewhat bold color, neutrals wash me out!
How did not know about that place up until now??? Dude!!!
I always go bold. I absolutely love that color on you!! The pinky red is gorgeous. If I ever get to visit NYC I will make the time to create one also! I wish that they would open more locations across the country.
I have lots of colors, I like them all. I wish Eastern Carolina had a place like that.
I’m typically a neutral lipstick girl but I’m blonde like you and would love to try this bold color too.
I enjoy a good neutral lip that goes with everything!
That sounds like such a neat experience! I love the color you chose!
And I love a bold, bright lip! 🙂
What a fabulous post! Honestly, I’d never heard of this until I read your blog post. The custom lipstick is perfect on you. I think you chose wisely. How utterly kind of you have have purchases a second to give away. That is so like you.
I usually switch up my shades between neutrals and bold. I do what ever strikes me at that moment.
I LOVE bold lipsticks on everyone else but myself, I think I just need to go for it and stop being so chicken!
Love Bite lip products! I own their Luminous Crème Lipstick Duo and it is fantastic. Moisturizing yet really pigmented. Had no idea you could create your own lipstick color with Bite, thanks for sharing with the world. That would be such a fun “girls night/day, bachelorette” event 🙂
How fun!! I’ve been thinking about visiting NYC this summer so if I go (with girlfriends) I’ll definitely have to try this!
typically I wear nudes and pinks…. Occasionally I will sport a bright lip… When I’m feeling SASSY 🙂
On a normal every day basis, I prefer neutral colors. But for special events, I like bolder colors. Thank you so much for this giveaway! This color is so pretty!
So fun! I typically wear more natural/neutral shades, so it would be fun to have a ‘custom-made’ bright color to try out.
I most often wear bold lipstick colors. I think dramatic eye makeup makes me look clownish, so when it comes to getting that pop of color, I always turn to lipstick.
I love a bold lip!! And this color you created is fabulous!!
Holy wow that color is fantastic!
Omg that sounds like so much fun!!
I wear neutrals, but I really need to branch out!
I don’t usually use lipstick, but when I do it’s for special events and I use more of a neutral color just to add a little something to the look.
I typically go for neutral, but I’ve been wanting to venture into more bold colors.
Beautiful! I typically wear neutral colors, so this would get me out of my shell!
That color is beautiful!! I usually stick with a pink that is similar to my lip color but I love a good statement lip for the right night!
I tend to wear at neutrals. My husband doesn’t love me in lipstick but sometimes you just have to wear some color. I love the color you made. It’s fantastic.
Very pretty! Neutrals for daytime and bold for nights out!
I typically go for neutral shades. Something about bright shades really scares me — like “LOOK AT ME” and I am not that bold with my makeup choices…yet!
What a beautiful color! I can see that being flattering on so many different skin tones. That seems like such a fun process and the packaging is lovely too. Would loooove to win!
i want to do this! i have only recently started wearing bold lipsticks but i love it.
Gorgeous! I don’t usually wear lipstick, but when I do it’s a peachy coral color. Kind of in-between bold and neutral. But I love a good bold lip!
I’d say I’m definitely working up to wearing bold colors but this particular shade is beautiful! If I wear bold lips I want them to be super moisturizer and BITE is great for that!!
I’m definitely a sheer/nude/neutral lipstick girl. I especially love any sort of my lips but better shade!
fascinating, thanks for sharing this store with us!
I love the idea of being able to create your own lipstick shade! Never had even heard of such a concept but I think it’s so cool!
Love the name and the color! Definitely needing a trip to NYC now…
Bold for sure!
I am not usually a lipstick person – just a gloss gal! BUT I’m trying to branch out and explore with some new color on my face. 🙂
Day to day I normally wear more neutral shades, on the weekends and when I’m out I will wear bold colors.
I usually stick to neutrals since I can never seem to find a color that I think looks good on me. Maybe I should give this place a try!
I usually wear neutrals and sheers. But when I do wear a bold lipstick, its almost always coral!
I pretty much buy the brights but NEVER wear them. I’m too chicken but I love them.
Such a beautiful color!… And what a fun experience!… My girls are making a trip to NYC in a few months… I’ll encourage them to add Bite Beauty lip lab to their itinerary 🙂
Oh!… and I am definitely more of a neutral lip gal, but in this *later stage* of my life, I have been experimenting with more color… Thanks for the giveaway!
I don’t usually wear bold lipsticks, but I need to try experimenting more! That shade looks great on you and makes your blue eyes pop.
I love a beautiful bold lip!
I’m more of statement lipstick person! I have got to get to one of these stores!!
I generally wear more neutral shades, but I really want to start experimenting with bold colors!!
I usually wear neutral!
I go back and forth. Sometimes just a pink gloss and sometimes a bold lip. Especially in summer when my skin has a little extra color.
LOVE THIS IDEA!!!
It’s like a girly grown up version of Build a Bear! WANT!
I mostly play it safe with neutrals, but am getting better at going bold occasionally! Such a fun color!
I LOVE bold shades…I skimp on the jewelry and go bold on the lips when I get the chance!
I usually wear light pink gloss or neutrals, but I am trying to be more bold. It feels so sophisticated! 🙂
Love! Perfect for summer!
I prefer bold. Nudes wash me out. I do like a my lips but better pink though
I usually go neutral. I would love to go bold, but am kinda afraid.
That’s awesome! What a fun experience =).
Bold!
I love bold statement lipsticks, and this color is fabulous!
That looks like soooo much fun! I’d love to go that. Thanks for sharing!
i typically wear neutral lipsticks, but i would absolutely love to try a bolder lip! xx
I don’t wear lipstick much at all, honestly. I guess I haven’t found the perfect shade. Plus, chapstick is always necessary for me. But I’d love to try a bold color! This one is really pretty.
I am stuck on Victoria’s Secret lipgloss and have been for years. I used to wear statement shades and would like to get back to it!
I typically wear neutral shades but this color looks so pretty! love the color you created!
I do not wear bold colors except for one sheer hotpink color I have, but this looks so great on you I was thinking “I want that too” and then, lo and behold! a giveaway!
This color looks fun and perfect for a wedding I’m in this September!
Love this color on you! xx
LOVE the color!!
That sounds so fun. WIll be on my list of things to do when i visit New York. The color you choose is beautiful.
Hello! I usually wear bold colors. I have a pretty hot pink that’s in my stash for this summer. I love the color you created in NYC. I’m blonde, blue eyed with a fair complexion. I think it would be the perfect shade for me too. 🙂
I’m typically a neutral or chapstick girl, but when I go on a date with my husband or out with my girlfriends, I like to add a little color!
So fun! I don’t normally wear lipstick but when I do I go bright red:)
I usually prefer a more neutral color for myself, but the bold colors suit you beautifully!
I wear bold colors year round; I just feel like it brightens my whole face! I love the color you created!
I love both neutral and bold lips! It really depends on the outfit 🙂
Oooh LOVE the color!
I typically wear shades of lipstick that are closer to my natural lip color as I don’t always have a lot of time to reapply. Bold Flamingo looks like a perfect shade for summer!
Love love love!
Neutral!
Such a cool process! If I ever make it to NYC I’ll definitely try this place out.
Always bold!
I usually wear a neutral lip but recently have been branching out with a bright pink from Tarte- so fun!
What a cool idea! I wish they had more stores around the country. I’d do it in heartbeat.
Anything Fun!! Love it!!
It depends on where I am going. If out with my husband I go bolder, if running errands a light pink.
How awesome!!! I’m pretty sure I need to do this for myself no matter what!
I normally wear neutrals, but a bold on occasion.
I pretty much only wear bold if I’m going with a lipstick!
I love going for a bold lip!
i usually do neutrals but would love to try a bold color. I find it difficult to look “normal” when I wear bold colors. I feel very dressy when I wear bold lipsticks.
That sounds so fun. I want to try out your shade!
I typically wear more neutral shades but love a bold lip on special occasions!
I feel like I need to make a trip to NYC just to do this!
I usually wear a neutral because that is where my comfort level is, but I always want to try a bold color. This one is very pretty and looks great on you by the way! I like the name, I think “Bravely Bold” would work well too, lol. 😉 Thank you for the giveaway!
I usually wear more nude or subtle shades on my lips.
I love that it stains your lips after if wears off.
I do bold lipstick, but usually tone it down with a neutral gloss. I love the color you had made; it looks fabulous on you!
Neutral at work (because I’m not allowed to wear anything else), but bold for fun.
I would be so overwhelmed at that store!
That sounds like the ultimate girly fun experience! The color is gorgeous!
I’m all about the bright colors! Go big or go home!
This is the neatest idea! I would love to do this for my wedding!
And while I normally rock a neutral shade, a nice bold color would be a nice change for my big day!
I love this! I have to do this once in my life! That’s so cool. I want to make a custom color.
I prefer bold shades, but Hubby prefers chap stick! Ha ha!

I think Bite needs to consider an outpost in Chicago!
I usually go neutral, but I do like to spice things up now and again. 🙂 cute name by the way.
Looks fun!
I usually wear neutral or light glosses but I love red lipstick
Love this brand and I had no idea that you could do that! Amazing!!
I LOVE THIS! now i want to go to NYC just to do this! LOL
I still to pretty neutral tones – honey, pinky nudes, sometime a coral to jazz it up!
How fun! That shade looks great on you.
so cool! thanks for sharing the tip!
I usually wear neutral colors but I am always intrigued by people who can pull off bold colors each day. I would like to wear them more often-in fact, it should be my New Year’s Resolution in January!
I typically where bold lips. Bold flamingo looks like something I would wear often!
Bold!
I usually wear neutrals but, after seeing how that bold shade made your eyes pop, I might reconsider!
Much more neutral soft pink
I typically wear a subtle pink type of nude, or slightly coral gloss….this would definitely spice things up a bit!!
Wow, that color is amazing! and I think Bold Flamingo is a great name, I’ve always thought it would be the coolest job in the world to name make up products 🙂
and I usually wear bolder shades of lipstick
I like somewhat bold colors. But in recent months, I’ve mostly been wearing sheer colors by Burt’s Bees…Lip stuff has to have some color otherwise I won’t bother
Oh man, wish I had known about this place last year, sounds like so much fun. I typically wear light color lipsticks, my faves are from Clinique.
This looks like so much fun!
I usually wear neutrals, but I would love a bold shade
I love bold colours, especially red, but have never found the perfect shade….this looks like it might be it!!!
Looks great on you!
I wear mostly nudes but I am always looking for the perfect bold color to wear:)
I typically wear bold colors – I am quite pale with dark hair, so I feel like my lips look invisible if I don’t brighten them up a bit. I LOVE Bold Flamingo!
That color looks amazing on you! I can’t wait to try it on!
This sounds like so much fun! Neutral 😉
mostly wear neutral day to day – but love a color like this when I’m feeling sassy!
I typically wear nudes but I am always looking for a great bold color:)
I only recently started wearing a bold red shade and I LOVE it! It changes your look in an instant.
Love this idea! I have a hard time choosing bold colors as I have no idea what looks good on me with such fair skin. I think this would be the best way to figure it out, customizing as you go!
I typically wear more neutral shades, so I would love to try this bold color!
I usually wear a more neutral color, but I absolutely love the shade you created! I’ve been wanting to experiment and be more bold, haha!
What a great idea. I’m super picky about colors so this sounds like a good way to find exactly what I’m looking for. LOVE the Bold Flamingo!
That is so cool! “Well I never….” as my grandma says all the time! Love the color.
Wow, what a fun store! Thanks for the giveaway!
I most often wear natural lip shades because I haven’t found a bold color to go well with my skin tone. But I’m still searching!
I don’t usually wear lipstick, but when I do…it’s bold!
I typically stick to neutrals but have a couple bold colors as well. I enjoy mixing it up with some brighter tones from time to time!
I’m forever searching for a lipstick shade that will match my pale skin and this sounds like a perfect opportunity to do so! Thanks for sharing this little gem of a store with all of us! And I love the name – Bold Flamingo! So cute!
Sounds like a lot of fun! If I ever get over there, I will have to try it! Usually more bold for me. I have a pink that I were if I’m just at home or running errands, but I have a red for any time I go out. I always have my red on anytime I go out. It always makes me feel more dressed up.
I usually wear a pinky/nude colour. I’d love to wear red but just can’t find the right shade!
I’m not brave enough to try bright colors like that – but I’m willing to branch out!
I used to be a more neutral lipgloss girl. Now, however, I’m opting more for a bolder lipstick! My favorite are the Mary Kay True Dimensions lipsticks… they are really creamy with great colors. A perfect blend of lipgloss and lipstick!
What a fun experience! I think I evenly wear both nudes and bright colors. All depends on my mood and what I’m wearing that day!
I adore a bold lip and Bold Flamingo is an awesome name.
Bold, definitely!
What a pretty color! I am just starting to experiment with lipsticks…I’ve never worn them much before. So this would be a great one to try! 🙂
I would love a new bold lipstick to replace my Chapstick!!!
I always go for neutral lip colors, but this spring I’m trying to wear brighter colors. Love the color you created!
It’s cool that you had a say in your new Bite lipstick!
I typically wear more neutral lip colors but on occasion and for fancy events, I love a bright red lip with a little orange tinge, which brings out the green in my hazel eyes – or so I’ve been told 🙂
I typically wear a bold lip with neutral outfits and vice versa. Love a great Bold lip though!
Love this color!!!
I usually go for neutral colors but for some things I will grab my bold red lipstick!! Would love to try this color out!!
I usually wear a sheer muted coral:)
I love a bold lip. I love lipsticks in general! I usually have about 20 in my purse at any given time. Plus I have a ton more at home. I love it!
Usually my style tends towards neutrals, but I’m trying to brighten it up for the summer! Looks like a really fun experience!
I am typically a neutral shade kind of gal. I will occasionally get wild and wear a slightly brighter shade of pink but usually it’s pretty sheer. I would love to find a prefect shade for me and mix my own! What a fun experience!
I typically wear neutral shades. Love your blog!
WOW! This is the coolest thing ever! I totally want to make my own lipstick now! That shade looks awesome on you. 🙂
Love the color on you. That is my favorite kind of color!
So fun! I usually wear neutrals, but I keep meaning to try something more daring. This is such a pretty color!
I love wearing an ‘inbetween’ tone of lipstick. Not too bold to snatch all the attention, yet not too neutral to be left unnoticed
I’m a neutral girl but I’m excited to give this a try
I typicall wear neutral shades of lipsticks, but I have started to branch out to brighter colors
Very cool idea for a splurge! I tend to stick with neutrals for everyday wear but love bold colors.
I usually wear a neutral shade. That shade looks amazing on you though!
I typically wear neutrals, but covet bold colors like this one!
Love the bold colors but I tend to wear more muted shades – I need to be braver!
Daily, I am a neutral girl. On a date night or for church , I like a little more oomph:)
Such a cool concept! Love the color
Neutral for me but would love to get brave and try bold
I usually wear neutrals, but I’d love to try this! 😀
I’ve got to visit NYC with my sis someday!
I had no idea you could do this at the Bite lab. How fun!
Neutral for sure, but I’d love to sport Bold Flamingo.
LOVE the color! i wish i knew about this place when i was in NY 2 months ago. Maybe i’ll be able to go on my next trip up there
I usually wear neutral colors but I am ready to add some bold colors.
I love wearing bright bold colors! Especially pinks! Thanks Kate 🙂
What a cool idea! Definitely something a beauty junkie like me would really like! I normally go towards bold colors. Love the look of a statement lip!
I usually wear neutral colors but I ready for a change.
I love a bold lip and though I have quite the collection of bold lip colors, my day-to-day staple is just balm.
I’m more of a neutral kind of girl. I would love to try some bolder shades!
How cool is this! I wear both…whatever goes with my outfit! How much does one of these cost?
I’m usually a neutral girl, but I love this!
My go to shade is nyx butter gloss in strawberry parfait. The color you created is beautiful!
I tend to gravitate more towards neutral colors because bright ones can overwhelm my extremely pale skin. However, I am venturing out more and have been trying some bright pinks that pop against my skin.
I love bold, colorful colors. My go to is Kat Von D’s shades of matte lipstick!
Neutral!
I normally do a neutral but i like to throw in a bold every now and then! Love this color!
I used to always be a “nuetral” lip sort of girl, but lately I have been wearing coral pinks and bright reds. It makes me feel like a lady to have more of a statement color these days. I am not afraid of standing out like I used to be.
This is SO neat! I’d love to try your special shade. 🙂
Oh, and I’ve been experimenting with bold colors lately.
Wow, that seems like it would be so much fun!! If I ever get back to NYC, I’m putting that on my list!
Love the color!!!
I love a good statement lip color but during the weeks ‘m a Chapstick kinda girl.
Sounds like so much fun to do! And such a pretty color!
Both! It all depends on the day and the outfit =)
I tend to do neutral if I’m just running out to Target or something, and go bold when I’m out of my house for actual plans that don’t involve wandering around throwing too many things into the cart. I also tend to go bolder/brighter in the spring/summer since pinks & coral work for me… fall/winter bold colors DO NOT.
Totally neutral girl, I wear BOLD colors of clothing but for some reason refrain on the BOLD makeup
For the most part I wear something in between, but I love a good bold color.
This looks like a great, bold color, different from what I would normally wear but very nice!
How exciting, Kate! I can imagine this was an extremely fun experience! It’s now at the top of my list for when I visit NYC next!
I typically go with a neutral shade during the day and something bright at night! 🙂
On days when I have bright make up I go for neutral lips. But on days where I go light on my eyes, I LOVE a vibrant lip!!! What a fun giveaway!
What a cool idea! I hope Houston jumps on this trend soon. I love the shade you created. I have been searching for the perfect lipstick that incorporates a little orange.
I love pinks but I’ve been dying to try something more bold 😉
What a fun, bold color! I usually wear neutral colors, but I love experimenting with bold colors for evening events!
Love the color! How fun!!!
I prefer more of neutral colors, but love a bold color every now and then!
Such a fun experience! I love the colour you chose 🙂 I can relate to husband not wanting to spend a lot of time in shops like these… Every make up store should have a little play corner for husbands, like some stores have for kids! 😀
I usually do neutrals but have been wanting to try something bold for a change.
As a musician, I tend to not wear lipstick (hello Vaseline!) but when I do wear for work, church or a party…bold is totally the way I go! I have an obsession with Victoria Secret lipstick (which…is made by the same manufacturer as MAC Cosmetics!!!) and cannot get enough of their boldy, pinky, corally lipsticks.
I used to be all neutrals all the time. Now, not so much! I am totally digging the color you invented. Bravo!!
Bold!! Love Bite! Thanks for the giveaway!!
I generally wear neutrals in the spring and summer. In the fall I always try a bold color.
I wear lipstick everyday, and almost all the time, it’s a pretty but bold shade!
What a cool idea! I LOVE the shade – and feel like it would be a flattering color on anyone! Thanks so much for creating an extra!!
xo
What a gorgeous shade!!!
I usually only wear Burt’s Bees lip shimmer because lipstick dries out my lips. I usually only wear lipstick for special occasions. Did this one dry out your lips?
I’m a sucker for bold lipstick! I love experimenting with all different types of bold shades to make a statement .
Thanks for sharing your experience with us! Gorgeous color! I normally wear pretty natural colors so this would definitely make me try something new!
I typically wear my-lips-but-better shades (because they are more office appropriate), but my favorite lipsticks are the bold ones!
I live in NYC, and I’ve got to try this out!
I LOVE a bold lip, but I am always hesitant to try it. More often than not, I am wearing a more neutral shade, but I like to mix it up every once in awhile.
I love this idea. Hope to visit next time I’m in NYC!
I usually wear a more neutral lip gloss, but I love bold colours and have been trying to branch out! Its a beautiful colour on you!
I typically wear neutral shades, but on special occasions I will go with something bold.
I cannot tell you how excited I am that you mentioned this on your blog! I never knew you could do this and I will definitely plan to do this the next time I visit NYC.
how fun!!
Beautiful color!! Starting to see the trend of bold lips coming back. Really liking it!!
Usually neutral
I wear a red lip every day!
I love bright colors!!
I ususally wear neutral shades, but I really want to get bolder! I still haven’t found a red that I can wear without feeling like a clown. This shade you made is gorgeous! I love coral.
I love both natural and bold lip colors – totally depends on my mood and the occasion 🙂
I usually wear neutral shades for work, and bolder at night/weekends!
Ooh how fun! I’d love to win this!
Thank you 🙂
I forgot – I usually wear natural colors but would love to try this bold one!
MAC’s Prrr lipglass is my usual color. I’d love to try out a “neutral” coral color. It looks awesome on you!
I usually stick to neutral.
Love the color! Definatley a bold color wearing person myself.
I used to always wear neutral or just chapstick, but then I realized how much more put together my makeup looks with a bolder lip. Now I’m a red lipstick wearer!
For everyday I wear more of a neutral, but I have started to really enjoy a bold color for evenings and nights out. I really like the Bold Flamingo, I like the bright bold colors.
I normally wear neutral shades of lipgloss, but have just started experimenting with lip color. And I’m liking it!
I normally wear a neutral lip, but I have quite the collection of bold colors. Basically, I love all lipstick! The color you chose looks really nice!
I am a 9 times out of 10 a BOLD lipstick kind of gal! 🙂
that’s pretty darn cool
If I wear lipstick, I go bold!
Who doesn’t love a bold lip?!
I’m a neutral kinda girl. I would love to wear bold lipstick but I just don’t know where to start.
Definitely bold! Just goes better with my personality :]
That color is gorgeous! I typically go with bold lipstick — even my “neutrals” are just sheers of the brights I wear (coral, magenta, orange-red). Your color is fab! Yours is the second I’ve seen this week, weirdly, and now I’m desperate to get up to the Bite lab.
Bold! I can’t wait to go to NYC and try this… so fun!
I typically wear neutrals but am trying to wear brighter colors as I love them on other people and feel they finish your look.
I LOVE Bite lipsticks….the pigments are great! I’d love to add this color to my lipstick stash!
Wow, that color looks amazing on you. My eye always seems to be drawn to a neutral shade but I love a bright pink or coral in the summer.
I’m really a fan of the bold lip, both on an everyday and special occasion basis. Red and dark red lips are definitely my favorites.
The process of making this lipstick sounds so cool!
How fun! I’m putting that on my list of to-do’s when in NYC!
I am a neutral girl. But I would love to break out of my shell, maybe sometime soon. =)
Always a neutral, but I’d love to branch out!
I am really trying to get into lipstick more, it would be so fun to have such an *esclusive* shade!
I’m not usually a lipstick wearer. When I do, I prefer something bold like a berry or coral. Love the shade you created!
Neutrals are more of my thing, but I’d give this color a try!
I prefer neutral shades.
Thanks.
Ann
I wear both neutral and bold shades. Right now though I’m really into bold shades. So bright and pretty.
i’m a neutral gal!
So generous of you Kate! I’d love to be able to do this if I’m ever in NYC!
I love a neutral face and a pop lipstick! This shade is amazing and looks stunning on you!!! As a lipstick-o-holic myself, this is somewhere I will definitely go to on my next trip to NY. Thanks for sharing!!!
“Bold Flamingo” is a perfect name for this color. It is a bold color that reminds me of Flamingo dancers. Great Job Kate!
I usually do neutral or if I do color its usually sheer
I usually wear a neutral lip. The shade you created looks great on you! I would definitely try this if I had the chance! 🙂
Both! I’m getting more daring & wearing bolder colors. I love BITE cosmetics!
what a great color! would love to try this little shop.
definitely neutral, I’ve always been a little afraid of bold lip color!
I love this shade! I’ve just now started experimenting with lipstick and I find that I fall more in love with vibrant, fun shades, but I tend to wear more conservative shades (I think that has something to do with working 5 days a week, with only 2 days for fun!)
I like both neutral and bold lip colors! Just depends on the occasion 🙂
This looks like a ridiculous amount of fun!
That looks fun! I am usually not very bold with my lip color but I want to venture out 🙂
I fall somewhere in the middle. I love something with a pop, but still natural looking.
I have your same exact skin coloring, so naturally I would love to try a bold hue lipstick since I am a pretty simple girl!
Neutral most days, slowly venturing into the bold arena though!
I’m more of a neutral girl, but you look SO good in this color! I have your coloring… maybe I would, too?? 🙂
I almost always go for the bold. There is just something about a pop of color that makes me feel put together. In fact, sometimes when I’m feeling the crummiest, that’s when my lip color is the the boldest. In the words of my mother, “Never leave the house without a little bit of color on your lips.” I just take it to an extreme somedays.
My go to colors are corals, reds, and oranges. And, pinks are new to the mix. Absolutely love this “Bold Flamingo” and only wish I’d discovered this shop about a month ago on my trip to NYC.
What a perfect summer colour! And I actually love the name Bold Flamingo.
I mix it up – some days bold, some days neutral! This color looks great on you! Love it!
I typically wear neutral lipstick and then add my color with lipglosses. But I’m known to ruffle my feathers and sport a bold lipstick here and there. 😉
This is such a neat idea! Love the color!
I love surprising people with a bold lip color. I normally wear a neutral so I can put it on at work without a mirror! Love your bold color choices:)
This is beyond awesome! I absolutely love Bite lipsticks – I had no idea they had a lab where you could go to create your own. I’m adding this to my bucket list.
I usually wear lip gloss but that lipstick is beautiful! Thanks for sharing!
How much fun! I’d love to go try that out. Maybe they’ll expand down south! 🙂 I usually neutral, but this past year I’ve been moving more towards bold colors.
Neutral
This is the coolest thing ever!! I’d be over the moon if I won! Such a neat giveaway!
Looks like so much fun! Yours turned out great!
I usually stick with neutrals but I love experimenting with bolds!
I love to mix it up depending on my mood. If I was brave enough I’d wear a bold lip every day though!
I usually gloss over my natural lip color with a clear gloss, but I have been wanting to try a bold color for a while now! Such a beautiful & fun process you were able to experience!
That sounds like a lot of fun and a great color! Thanks for the chance to win!
I typically wear neutrals but love to punch it up with a bolder color for special occasions!
Love that shade on you Kate! I would love to try that too. : ). Sounds like you had a fun visit to NYC . Yay!
Fun color! I tend to stick to nudes. I’m a wuss. This would be something fun to try!
Oh my gosh, this is definitely going on my NYC list!
I love everything about this! The color, the experience! So fun!
I actually typically wear bold! I have dark hair and blue eyes, but pale skin, so I can pull off bright shades, and even if you wore a basic outfit, a bold color on the lips can really up the ante! I love the one you chose!
I usually don’t wear any but when I do I like to wear bold colors.
This is THE COOLEST thing! It’s going on my bucket list for sure!
I think I tend to wear more bold lipstick, which is kind of a new thing for me. I’m loving it though!
This is so neat, I would do this in a heartbeat! I love wearing both although go more neutral for day and bright for night/weekend.
katespitz.blogspot.com
Neutral pinks! 🙂
I love to experiment with bold colors!
i meant to go here in NYC in March and totally missed it! How fun!
Love this. I love BOLD colors.
I have just started getting my feet wet with neutral colors of lipstick and would love to try a bolder color! You did a great job!
I always wear neutral shades of lipstick. A little scared to try bold lips but it looks really good on you so maybe I will attempt it.
I tend to go more neutral,but with summer nights coming up a bold lip is perfect for a night out.
I love this color and have been looking for a bold lip color. I have similar coloring to you, so I think this would be a great choice!
I typically wear neutrals!
I love the color! That’s basically the color that’s been in my heart every time I’ve gotten my nails done in the past two months!
What a fantastic name!!! I am more of a neutral girl just because I am scared to go outside my comfort zone
Usually neutral, but my hubby prefers bold! LOL
I tend to lean towards the more neutral shades, but every once in a while get bold!
I love wearing bold colors! So fun!
I typically wear neutral shades (if any), but I would love to branch out. Love what you picked out!
I love a bold lip!
I love bold statement colors!
I tend to stay neutral but sometimes (plain outfit or very dressed up) a bold lip is great. Love your color choice!!
I typically wear neutral colors. Would love to have a fun, bold color to keep around though!
I’ve just recently started to branch out with bolder lip colors. I love this one!
I tend to shy away from the bold, but I get so many compliments when I do go bold. So I will be daring and say bold.
I normally wear neutrals, but occasionally branch out into bolder colors
That color is so gorgeous on you! I tend to wear neutrals, but lately I’ve been very into some pretty wild pastel shades (around the house, mostly)!
That is truly your perfect shade!
I wear neutral
How cool is that?!
neutrals most of the time, would love to try something more adventurous!
I typically go neutral, but I’ve been expanding into bold colors lately which is fun. It depends on my makeup and outfit on what I’ll do. But this would be amazing to try!!
I love both!!
love a bold lip for a night out!
I’m loving bold lips right now and that color is to die for! Awesome pick!!!
I typically wear neutrals but I wish I had known that store existed when I was in NY!
That is such a gorgeous color! I tend to go for subtle lip color like a tinted lip balm and a bold nail color. My favorite nail polish is Essie clambake which is almost identical to this lipstick!
Both! But I usually only wear really bold colors when I feel anonymous.
I wear them both and would love to win!
Lovely color, looks great on you, Kate!

I’m definitely a neutral kinda girl, but love to mix it up!
I LOVE this color! I am also pale/fair and have been looking for the perfect summer bright lip! I love a good neutral, but summer just makes me want to punch up the color and this is GORG.
I typically wear neutral lips but if I’m going out I sometimes like to switch it up and go bold! I am dying to go to the lipstick lab!
bold and beautiful!!!!
I gotta go with the subtle kind, because I’m always going overboard on my eyes.
I used to only wear neutrals, but lately I’ve been branching out and wearing bolds too!
I usually wear bold color lipsticks! I love the pop and it makes me feel put together!
Thats awesome! I would love to do that if I am ever in NY and the shade you created it beautiful!
I like bold colors!
I love to make it count when I wear lipstick—bold color all the way!! I can’t wait to visit this place next time I am in NYC, what a fun concept!
I usually go with neutrals, but a pop color is always fun.
Thanks for thinking of all of us! Love the color.
I would wear this Absolutely Gorgeous color!! What a great idea!
That is such a cool idea for a store. I would love to give it a try!
What a classy but fun color! Love it.
I’m a neutral kind of girl!
I love bold and neutral lip colors
I generally wear bolder shades, though I’m trying to find some nice neutral colors as well 🙂
I love a wild pop of color. I am an olive toned blonde. Neutrals make me look dead, most warm colors fade away in 5 minutes, but give me a bright, clear, splash of delightful color and I am in heaven!
I wear neutral, but have been wanting to try out a bold color!
I typically wear a more neutral color. When I do wear bold, I surprise myself when I look in the mirror! I like it… but more for special occasions.
I go back and forth with my lip color…it depends on how crazy I did my eye makeup. I’m a color-lover!
I am definitely a neutrals girl but am trying to step out of my comfort zone into the bold colors for the Spring! 🙂
I don’t wear lipstick that often, although I love it. I run a warehouse and work with dirt and sweat lots everyday so lipstick is worn just for special occasions. I am more of a neutrals and pinks kind of girl but love trying bold reds; however, I don’t think they work with my fair skin color.
I am new to your blog, just found it yesterday. Spent all last night going through and learning lots from your tutorials. Thanks for sharing your knowledge, family, and life with us.
I didn’t start wearing lipstick until this past Christmas, but now I’m obsessed with it! I love the way bold colors look on me, I feel like I can take on the world!
Bold all the way!!!!
This color looks awesome! I normally wear neutrals during the day. However if I want to feel more put together then I try to wear a fun color. Or if I am going out with friends or my husband.
I love bold colors some days and neutral colors on other days. Love the idea of having a shade made for yourself specifically!
I’m still working up to feeling comfortable wearing lipstick, but I love the look of bold colors.
Wow, this is so fun! I had no idea!
I don’t really wear lipstick but I’d love to try this!
I love a bold lip and my make up style has changed over the past couple of years! More neutral make up & bold lips!
Considering I only wear lipstick in melodramas, it’s pretty bold. 🙂 I like lipstick; I’d like to wear bolder lipstick. I will one day, when I find some I really like. Those look great!
I typically go for neutrals but I’ve been searching for the perfect bold shade to try!
Normally neutral. But love brights sometimes!
I typically wear nude shades, but this is so pretty, I’d love to try it!
That sounds like SO much fun! I will have to go next time I’m in the city!!
Your color looks great on you…nice job!! You make it sound so simple! I go either way on my lipsticks…sometime I want quick and easy, so I go neutral. Other times I really love a quite eye and bold lip!! Super fun!
I tend to wear neutrals, but am always drawn to bright in the store! This place sounds amazing!
I tend to go 50/50 between neutral and bold, but I’m becoming a huge fan of the bold lip!
I do both! Usually neutral during the week and bold on the weekends!
Oh man I would love to do this! Thanks for the giveaway!
I love this shade! At work, I usually wear a more neutral shade, but also don’t mind going bold!
Love the bold color! It reminds me of the Essie color, Watermelon. 🙂
Mine is somewhere between neutral and bold. It definitely isn’t a bright red, but it doesn’t just blend into my lips either. I like to show up a little. The color you created is lovely.
I’m a bold girl, myself 🙂
Wow! It looks like it would be a total blast to go there and create your own lipstick shade! I normally wear neutral colors but every now and then I like to try something a bit more bold. 🙂
I normally wear neutral, so I would love to try out Bold Flamingo!
I’m not much of a lipstick person, but when I do wear it I trend towards neutrals except for special occasions. I should branch out!
I can’t believe I’ve never been to the Bite lab – I should take a train into the city one of these days to try it out! Thanks for the inspiration!
I usually wear neutrals, but I would LOVE to try Bold Flamingo!
I DIE! I am a total lipstick girl. I want to go to NY just for this
I usually wear neutrals.
I think doing something like that is the only way I could break away from the neutral shades that I fall back on. How fun! Love the shade!
I was in NY last weekend, too! I wish I would’ve seen this when I was in the Village, I absolutely would’ve dragged my husband in there! 🙂 I would love to win this shade, thanks for being so thoughtful to your readers!
I forgot to answer the question! I usually wear neutral, pinky shades because I’m too afraid to try something bold. However, I do own one tube of red lipstick (from Target, I believe) that I break out every once in awhile that I actually do really like.
I like to mix it up and wear different shades based on my mood. I wear a more natural lip color more often than the bold colors, but enjoy both.
When I wear lipstick (which is rather rare–I’m working on that) I want it to be bold!
Vivian
My lipstick depends on my mood! Mostly bright & sassy!
this sounds so fun!
I generally go for more neutral colors but I love the color you came up with! I hope I win it!
I usually wear a soft color but it is always a coral base.
I typically wear nudes but would love this! Have been dying to try their products.
As a zookeeper in South Dakota, I don’t get dressed up very often. I am most comfortable in a neutral shade that keeps me looking pretty natural. You pull off that beautiful bold color wonderfully though!! I’m jealous 🙂
You look so stunning! that color makes your eyes look so blue! I love this whole idea of making your own shade & scent 🙂
I definitely go with the more neutral shades unless I’m feeling feisty!
I usually go for bright pink or bright red when I wear lipstick! Most of the time I’m just a plain chapstick kind of girl!
I love a great bold lip! This is such an amazing color.
I’m normally a semi-neutral kinda gal, but I love a pop of color every now and then! Great job on creating it!
BOLD! The bolder, the better!
I definitely tend to wear neutral shades. I’m trying to step out of my box this summer though and I’m looking forward to trying some new colors :)!!!
I think its a perfect name for such a pretty color!
I love neutrals but there is nothing more fun than trying a bold color every once in a while 🙂
I normally wear neutrals. But I love this color!
Love this, I will have to see if there is anything like this near me! And that shade is beautiful on you!!
Bold!
I usually go for neutrals but every so often I like to go bold!
I usually wear neutrals, but that is a beautiful color!
I normally wear neutral, but would love to try something bold that isn’t pink 🙂
I usually wear a neutral lip, but lately I’ve been experimenting more with bold colors! They are so fun!
I usually stick to neutral colors but I’ve been experimenting with brighter colors recently!
In between. 🙂 Though I love bold, too! This color is beautiful.
I love to wear bold lipstick! I’m almost always found with hot pink on my lips!
My lips are naturally very dark so I rarely wear lipstick. When I do, though, it’s going to be a statement color or why even bother!!!
fun! i would love this lipstick color, so pretty!
Nude usually…. beautiful color! How fun to create one!
Neutral…but I want to branch out this summer!!
thanks for the giveaway! What a fun color.
i want it! haha. What a fun thing you did! Thank you!
Varies with the season-wearing coral this summer.
I typically wear neutrals!
That is such a pretty color on you! I love a bold lip!
I love typically wear neutrals for everyday things but love and adore a good bold color for fun!
I’ve heard so much about Bite! It’s so cool to see the services they offer. The color is so unique and bold! LOVE IT!
I definitely tend toward neutral colors – pinks mostly. I would love to try something a little more red-ish!
I love both, but I usually wear bold color lipstick.
Typically a neutral for everyday, but I love a good bold pink or red lipstick for special occasions!
I tend to wear neutrals but like color!
The color is gorgeous! I would love to wear it!
I normally wear neutrals.
I do both…depends on the day and where I am going.
I usually wear neutrals, but wan gritty a bold color!!!
I meant to say I want to try a bold color!
I guess I would say I normally wear neutrals- pink neutrals!
I’m definitely a bold and the beautiful kind of gal!!
I love a bold lip. I passed by the BITE store last weekend and had no idea that you could do this! Can’t wait to try the BITE studio on my next trip to NYC!
That sounds like so much fun!! Next time I’m in NYC I am definitely going to check it out 🙂
Usually neutral. But I need that lipstick for a summer change!!!
OMG I need one!! I also want to go there and make one too!
I have 2 Bite lipsticks and yes, it’s all about color, love it!
I normally wear a neutral shade (I don’t want to color to rub off on my daughter’s cheeks with all my kisses 🙂 ).
I always go with neutral. I am just not brave enough to try color.
Not sure if the color would work on me, but I’d love to try it!
Bold is not really my thing. I like neutral and natural. 🙂
It is very pretty. Looks similar to the J. Crew lippie that you always talk about (Cajun?) I love a good bold lip, but I usually go with more neutral options.
What a fun thing to do. Would be interested to try the shade.
Always a bold lip!!
I typically stick with neutral shades, but every now & then I like to go out of my comfort zone with a nice bold shade! Love the name too!
Heading to NYC soon and will certainly stop by and check the shop out! In the meantime…LOVE that color!
That’s a nice coral colour! i usually use neutral shades for my lips, as i feel that it suits me more than bold ones due to my slightly yellow skin tone. I’d definitely give coral a try, since i love coral blushes!
Oh my gosh! I love it and it’s probably good that I will never get to go to that store. I can see myself spending a lot of $$.
A more neutral shade!
I’m kind of a “safe” girl – mostly neutral but want to try to get a little more bold.
Definitely neutrals, but I’ve been trying to work towards more bold colors!
I wear both — neutrals by day, bold by night. I really loved learning about this fascinating lipstick boutique!
I typically stick to neutrals but I love a bold color for a night out!
I tend to wear neutral pink-rosy shades. But, my coloring is very very similar to your (my eyes tend to go a little grayer) but it looks like skin tone and hair color and such…well, let’s just say I get a lot of mileage out of your tips and tricks. 😉 So, yes please I wanted the extra chance… I love that color you made. And, in the summer I will go bold on occasion, I just usually have to be talked into it…this would do it!! I totally want to try it if I ever get to NYC. Of course being on the West Coast I don’t know that I see that happening….love the idea though, how fun!!!!!!!
I like neutrals best, but have been stepping out of my comfort zone and trying bolder shades. This color looks great on you!
Usually I go neutral, but have started to add more boldness recently!
I like to wear a mixture of both! Probably neutral a little more often.
That is gorgeous!! Perfect color!! I’m dying to create my own!!
Realized I didn’t answer the question! I prefer to wear bold lip colors. If I’m going to bother with one it better be one you notice!
This is pretty–not too bright and not too dark!
Bold! I love my smile so I go bold with my lipstick!
I like something in the middle – a “bold neutral” if you will 🙂 I want it to be neutral enough for everyday wear, but I like it saturated so you can tell it’s not my “natrual lip color.”
I usually do very minimal make up. I’m always searching for a lipstick that looks good with my pale skin.
I LOVE all lipstick! You are gorgeous!
Very pretty color! That would be so fun to create your own shade.
I am more used to neutral shades of lip color, but am trying to branch out to brighter shades, especially in the summer!! I would love this color!
I love a bold lip on other women but am always to afraid to try them on myself!
I probably wear more bold and I usually wear it only on dress up days.
My go to color is a mix slightly bold, but probably more neutral.
Love it! Sounds like such a fun and unique experience.
And this’d be perfect for me since I’ve been loving a bold lip as of late!
How cool! I’ll definitely do this next time I’m in the city!
I love this color! I’m generally more of neutral, “my-lips-but-better”, kind of girl when it comes to lip color, but I do love a bold lipstick when the occasion calls for it!
I usually go for dark shades of lipstick but sometimes neutrals.
BoLd!! And I love BITE products so much!!
I wear the same lip color nearly everyday (a pinky-mauve that is similar to my natural lip color–so, pretty neutral), but I have been thinking that I should branch out. 🙂 You’ve inspired me because my coloring is similar to yours and your new lipstick shade looks gorgeous on you!!!
Love your blog & the neat stuff you share. Would love to win the freebie!
I’ve just started wearing brighter more vibrant colors and have gotten a lot of compliments!
Um, this is the coolest thing!! I love neutral and bold lipstick and this color is awesome! Thanks!
What fun! Wish I lived closer or had an upcoming trip so I could try it out too. 🙂
I love neutral, but recently I tried out a bold red, and loved it!! Wish we had a lipstick lab here in South Africa 🙂 Ps LOVE LOVE LOVE your blog, been following for years, first time entering a comp though. Love from SA xxx
Usually, I go without lipstick. So I guess you could say I’m more of a neutral type. 🙂
I typically wear a medium shade of a neutral color but this looks beautiful!
I love neutrals for lips most of the time. Honestly, the most color I’ve ever worn is the L’Oreal Caring Coral Colour Riche Lip Balm you recommended but now it’s my favorite so I think I might finally be ready for the next step up!
Love this color!!!
I love both neutral and bright but I typically go with neutral as an everyday color. Will definitely try this when we go to NYC.
I love both and recently discovered Bite lipsticks. I am enjoying the bold was of violet and palomino!
I usually wear more neutral shades, but I LOVE this as an intro into bolder shades! The hint of pink is perfect for me! 🙂
I like both, but it think the bolder, brighter colors really brighten up my face.
For work I usually wear neutral colors but when I go out I like to play it up with a bold color. This shade is beautiful and I love the name 🙂
Such a great color! Perfect for summer!
This is one of the coolest things I’ve ever heard about! Can you imagine a girls day out and going to make your own personal shade of lipstick? So awesome! You look amazing by the way. Being a mommy of two I love reading about your new motherhood experiences. David is precious!

it’s either bold or just chapstick for me!
i’m an all or nothing kind of girl…
love your color (esp for summer!). here’s’ hopin-
I usually go for a neutral color for daily wear, but love something bolder for a night out!
Although I wear neutrals sometimes, I look better in more bold colors. They tend to brighten up my face more than neutrals do.
Probably more neutral tone – if I wear it! Trying to venture out more!
That color looks great on you! I am not normally a bright lipstick kind of girl, but every once in a while I like to experiment with a.bold color. Love it!
Both! It depends on the occasion
I used to wear a lot of bolder lipsticks but over the last year or so have switched to a more neutral color. But seeing all the bright coral/red/pink colors this spring, I’m itching to find another bold color! This would be perfect!
It depends on what I’m wearing. I like color so if I’m wearing bright outfits – neutral lip. Neutral clothes – bright lip.
What a fantastic concept! I’m definitely doing this when I go to NYC. The color you made is beautiful. I generally look for similar shades–especially to wear in the spring and summer.
I typically am a chapstick only during the day kinda gal, but at night I go for a bold look! Love that you can make your own shade! I typically find it difficult to find the right hue to match my skin! Looks like I need to plan a trip to NYC!
Neutral!
I am pale so I like bright for some colour!
I tend to stick to neutrals because bold colors can be a little high maintenance for me for everyday, but when I’m having a date night with my hubby, I love to pull out the bolds!
I love that your husband went with you! Mine just made fun of me for how long I took picking out apples at the supermarket yesterday – who knows how long it would of taken me to pick out a custom shade of lipstick! I don’t do neutral very often because I’m fair skinned, so I would say bold. I tend to be drawn to the pink and rose shades mostly – but I would love to try your shade!
Are you familiar with a service like this for perfume??? I’d love to have somebody help me pick out the best perfume for my body, as for some reason, when I find a perfume that I love the smell of, it smells odd on me! Help!
I usually go bolder with my lip color.
Wow that looks like so much fun! I love the color you made! It looks great on you!
What a gorgeous shade! I usually wear neutrals but love a bright color for going out!
I typically wear lighter shades similar to the color of my lips. I guess in between bold and neutral.
That color is awesome, and this sounds like a really fun experience. Add to my bachelorette shenanigans? Yes!
I love bold colors, my current fav is Mac Relentlessly Red w Cherry liner! It’s very bold, but beautiful! I love this color on you and hope to visit Bite next time I am in NY.
I typically wear neutral colors, but I own two bold lipsticks for when I want to stand out!
I think I wear bold and neutral colors just about equally. I love a bold lip color this time of year!! Creating your own color sounds like so much fun! I love the color they came up with for you!
This sounds like such a great idea! I typically wear more neutral colors, because I know that’s what works. But if I had the chance to design my own color, I might be more willing to play around with some other options and be a little more bold!!
I am usually a clear, lip gloss kind-of-girl, but when I do wear lipstick, I love the bolder shades. There is something fun about about bold lipstick colors.
That color is so fun! love it!
I typically wear more bold shades of lipstick 🙂
I’m typically a neutral girl, but would love to try and be “Bold!”
I wear neutral and bold!!!
It all depends on my mood! Usually I’ll use my go-to Chanel lipstick which is a coral pink. Its sheer and I can add to it!
I like to wear a bold color. I like my lipstick to add a little pizzazz!
hmmm, is this a chain? I will have to look in to if there is one near me!! I have always wanted to try a bold lip color, but have been to chicken to waste money on a color i won’t like one i get home, this would be perfect!
What a fun concept! Love the color!
Always a bold lip! 🙂
I typically wear neutral but I LOVE this shade!
Oooh! I have pretty much purchased all lipsticks you highlight on your blog .. so it would be pretty darn neat to have a custom Kate lipstick!
I love all colors! When I’m in a hurry, I tend to go for a bold lipstick because then I don’t have to worry about my eyes as much!
I love a pretty neutral color, but am starting to try bolder colors.
I LOVE bold lippies! Especially coral!
Give me a pop of color … usually red! ‘kiss’
I typically go for a more neutral shade of lip color! Love your blog!
I typically do a neutral lip for everyday but would love something like this for special occasions!
I usually wear neutral colors, but lately I’ve been trying to experiment with brighter colors. It’s fun for summer!
I love a bold lip color! My sister and I are toootally going to do this in NYC this summer!
That would have been so fun. Bless your patient husband!
That color looks great on you. Thanks for the chance to win one.
I was just in New York last year and wish I would have known of this cool experience. Guess I have to plan a trip back!
I typically prefer a more neutral lip shade but I have recently been branching out. I actually just purchased a lipstick from bite and I love it and was excited to hear that you could make your own!
Love this shade! Typically I do gravitate towards more colourful lipsticks, because I think they brighten up my pale complexion, and they’re much easier to get right than colourful eyeshadows, in my experience! Plus I think nude lips look horrid on me, in my pasty glory 🙂
Normally I wear a neutral lip. Mainly because I have a 6 month old and he would be covered in red lipstick. I just kiss his squishy cheeks all day. But this would be so fun for a night out with my husband!
I typically steer towards a neutral lip. My staples are the Revlon Balm Stain in Honey and the Revlon Colorburst Matte Balm in Sultry. Sultry’s a bit more “daring” but still a pretty safe bet! I do own a few “statement” lip colors and am trying to work them in my routine, though!
I typically wear a lighter color that pretty close to my lip color… however, we’re the same shade of pale (sorry) and I think the color you created will be beautiful!
Looks like a color that would work on a lot of people! Cute!
Oh my word. I am a neutral gal all the way! But, I’ve bought a couple statement lipsticks, and I’d love to find the right shade that works for me. Kate, that coral is lovely on you, and since we both share pale skin, I’m hoping your custom lip shade might be my perfect statement match! 🙂
Bold lipstick! I’m usually a chapstick person, so if I’m wearing lipstick, it’s because I want a pop of color
I typically wear bold.
I’m a stay at home mom of 3 and my husband works out of town over half the week. So for me, it’s usually ChapStick or a very light lipstick. But on the off chance that we get to go on a date, I would love a nice bright (coraly colors are my fav) color to spruce myself up!
I generally wear neutrals, but would love to branch out!
I’m trying to move into the more bold options, but it feels so risky (silly, I know!).
I like a bold lip color. This one looks gorgeous!
I used to choose very natural shades but lately I have been experimenting with more bold colors and I love it! I don’t think I would go back to natural anymore!
I started with darker, neutral pinks when I was younger, then just wore chapstick and glosses. Over the past couple of years, I have been more daring. I bought “streak” per your recommendation, and have bought some other vibrant colors. Dont have too many though, and would LOVE this shade!
I am so a neutral/sheer lip girl, but I have always wanted to try a bold choice! This one looks like so much fun!
BOLD! I have a very basic style but I love to add big color through a lipstick.
Love that color and it looks fabulous on you!!
Neutral colors generally, but I should try more bold 🙂
I love bold colors but most days I reach for something neutral.
That shade is gorgeous!! I love the bright color and coral shade!
I wear neutral shades to work and typically venture out to statement colors when going out or on the weekends. Love this color! I always go for coral/orangey tones when it comes to lipstick!
LOVE LOVE LOVE! It’s perfectly bright but with a good balance of both pink and coral. Great for spring/summer!
I wear neutrals normally, but like a splash of color when I’m not at work. I have olive skin so coral colors are a nice fit for my skin tone. 🙂
so fun!! I am getting used to wearing a bold lip for a night out… it makes me feel like a grown up. lol! 🙂
I love a bold lip and have heard about bite and always wanted to do it. What a fun day and a great color!!
so cute!
I usually opt for a neutral lip, but I have a similar coloring, so maybe this bright shade would flatter me as well!
That shop sounds awesome! I prefer a sheer peachy color, but I love the shade you chose! Thanks so much for the chance to win!
What a great color for summer!
i would love to do this someday! how fun.
lately i’ve been loving more bold colors! the one you created is SO beautiful!
I really like the color and would love to try it.
I have tended to stick with neutrals, but am trying to venture out and wear bold colors!
that’s a great color!
What a fun experience! I’m not sure how I would be able to choose just one color if I went there!
I love the color!!! It really brightens up your complexion–great choice!
I typically wear neutral lipsticks, but I’m looking to branch out! I love having a bold, bright, fun color – this one would be great for summer!
What a AWESOME idea! I love it!! I also have just recently found your blog and am loving it as well. Here’s to hoping I win ;P
What a cool thing to do! I definitely lean on the bold lip choices more than neutrals. I like to leave the rest of my outfits neutral, and accessorize with bold jewelry or makeup.
I love this color! Bite lipsticks have quickly become my favorite. They’re so pigmented and creamy and they last for ages!!!
Neutral colors usually but every once in a while like more color.
I’ve worn bold lip color for years, but I have just begun experimenting with some neutrals.
You have inspired me to branch out of my normal lip colors. Today I’m wearing a rich burgundy red and have received so many compliments.
What an amazing shop! My brother goes to NYC regularly for work…. might have to coax him into hitting this place up for me. I love the concept! How fun to see a shade come to life before your eyes. I’m not usually a bold lipstick gal…. usually go for the lighter pink and coral shades with sheer finishes. My hubby would be surprised to see me in this color for sure. Pleasantly surprised I hope! <3
I typically wear neutral or pinkish glosses. The one time I went out on a limb and tried red, my husband gave me the “what are you wearing?!!” look.
I have a bit of a crooked smile so my go to is neutral lipstick, but I love to try bold colors!
I definitely wear neutral shades, I have heard so many good things about bite. Too bad I didn’t know about it, I was there the weekend before you were.
Neutral, but I am working on stepping outside of the box!
Thanks!
such a pretty shade!
I typically wear neutral lip colors but would love to try a fun, bold shade for summer!
BOLD for sure! 🙂
I usually wear neutral lipstick, but change it up with colors sometimes too!
I have fair skin like yours so I can’t wait to try this color!!
The shade is beautiful, and I would love to go to that store!
Neutrals are my go-to, but I’m branching out!
I typically wear more neutral lip shades…I LOVE MACs Lovelorn thanks to you! 🙂 However, I have Invisaglin right now and once I am done with my treatment, I can’t wait to give bolder colors a try with my new smile! 🙂
I usually wear neutrals but my goal for this summer is to play around with some bold colors! Love this coral look!

I love the way bold lipstick makes me feel, but it depends on my outfit and the colors. I don’t want my lipstick to clash with my outfit!
Usually neutral, but I’m trying to branch out into brights!

I typically wear neutrals but I’ve been trying recently to be more bold with my lipstick, so this would be a perfect color!
Neutrals mainly!
Oooo I’ve heard of this place! Never been to NYC, but someday I’ll go, and this is on my list! I’d be afraid that I’d take five hours to pick out what I would want, though! This is so cool for summer. What a neat idea to make your own shade:)
I typically wear neutral lip colors… but would love to try your new color!
I wear deep raisin and plum jam shades. Love!
I love the idea of a custom lip shade. I so want to try this! So unique and cool!
How fun you got to have your own shade made! How nice you got a 2nd to give away!
*hit enter too soon..I typically wear neutral pinks
I usually stick with neutrals, mostly just chapstick. Easier to smooch my new baby with:) I’d love to pull off a great color though.
Love this shade so much! It is gorgeous. I usually go for natural lip colors because they don’t look too intense for daytime.
i usually gravitate towards neutral/pinky shades for everyday wear, but I absolutely love Bite’s High Pigment Pencil in pomegranate (red).

Gorgeous color! I have got to try this
I love a bold lip and I love Bite! I have their lip crayon in Pomegranate and it’s such a striking contrast on my fair skin, I feel like my lips are glowing!
I normally wear neutrals but I love a lovely pop of red from time to time!
That is a really pretty color on you.
Neither! But I’d love to start!
I am a neutral lipstick wearer but would secretly love to try some brighter shades!

I wear neutral lip colours but this looks so pretty on you! It might work for me as we have similar skintones. Thanks for the giveaway!
I usually go light, not neutral per say, but not very bright. However, I’ve started wearing more bold colors. Bright red and orange or fuchsia have become new favorites and I’m always getting complimented when I wear a brighter color. I love coral too. It’s so cheery.
Neutral! MAC syrup is my jam!
I’ve been attempting to wear bold colors, but usually it’s a neutral, lip gloss or Burt’s Bees. I love your new color!
First time commenter but I love your blog and have pinned a ton of hairstyles – learned some great techniques from you!
I am off to NYC next weekend and I am going to check them out! It’s hilarious as I looked on their website and their factory/head office is based in Toronto Canada right near where I live but they don’t have store here! At least my trip is well timed!
I like to mix it up between neutrals and bold colors. I tend to pick bold corals and fuchsias in the summer.
This sounds like such a cool experience! I am a huge fan of bold lipsticks and I l’ve persuaded friends to take the plunge as well. I swear it makes a difference in the way I carry myself when I’m rocking a bright lip.
I enjoying wearing both neutral and bold lip color! It’s fun to mix it up!
I love that color! It depends on my mood and my outfit whether I wear a neutral out a bold loo

I have recently been trying bold! Does the lipstick smear much or does it last most of the day?
What a cool process and the lipstick you created is beautiful!

Such a brilliant idea for a business venture!!! How fun that you were able to create and are offering a giveaway too!
I lean more or neutral shades.

I typically wear a neutral shade with a neutral lip gloss, but I do LOVE a bold color for going out.
