The Shades:
Quince is a vivid, shocking pink. Bite describes this as a rose berry, but I found it similar to NARS Mexican Rose in terms of intensity. I loved the finish on this, but found it too intense for office-wear.

Rhubarb is a MLLB shade. Bite describes this as a plum rose. It's similar in tone but cooler than NARS Dolce Vita. This was my favorite shade out of the kit, and the most wearable in the office.

Cranberry is a limited edition shade. It is a deep, vibrant red. It's almost shocking in its intensity, but it's perfect for the holidays.

Madeira is a nude pink. I found this beautiful in the set and it looked amazing swatched on my hand. However, it's too light for my pigmented lips and looked silly.

Overall, I love the finish on these. It's a great introduction to Bite's Matte Lip Pencils, and I'm eyeing a number of other shades to try ASAP. I'm feeling the matte finish at this moment.
Bottom Line: This is a must-buy. It's a great value, and the colors are fantastic.
Pricing/Availability: $25, exclusively at Sephora.
