I have Just Bitten Strawberry, and I love it! A sheer red, that doesn't jump out at you. It really does make you look like you've just bitten into a berry. Also, I like the thin metal tube, because you can carry it comfortably in a pocket.
Reason I say I wouldn't purchase again, is because I wouldn't need to. I don't use it often; only when I feel "red." ;)

I bought all 3 colours from duty free for a very reasonable price. These lip stains are just that, lip stains, thus i only dab a bit on. I find them pretty drying even i slashed on lipbalm before application. the end result: they show me lines on my lips which i have never seen before! Instead of wearing this alone like Clinique's almost lipstick, i have to wear other glosses on top to lessen the awful sight of linessss... rasberry looks most flattering on me. strawberry is a bit too bright pink. and brownberry looks subtly orange and shows most lines on my lips, yuck!

Just Bitten Strawberry is a gorgeous red stain. I use it almost every day; it is the only product I've ever repurchased!! And I've purchased 3 so far. It leaves your lips a soft red color that is perfect for everyday use. I've recently layered Wet and Wild Caramel/Butterscotch gloss over the top for a gold shimmery glaze, and it is beautiful for an evening look! If it is ever discontinued, I will not have a clue what to replace it with. Keeping fingers crossed............

I was looking for a sheer red lipstick when I came across this in Just Bitten Strawberry. I was a little disappointed as I was expecting something more glossy & creamy like the Clinique Moisture Sheer Lipsticks. The texture of this is a little dry, so you have to moisturise with lipbalm before applying. Also, the flat tip makes it quite difficult to apply initially. Colorwise, I was expecting a very sheer glossy red, but it goes on a rather bright semi-matte reddish stain. Not exactly a natural look for day, but it would be great for a night out. Good also for those who find red lipsticks too dramatic and want something slighly lighter in texture. continued >>

This product is okay. I have Just Bitten Raspberry. It is a little bright on me, so I never really wear it.

I love my Just Bitten Raspberry! I bought an extra for my purse! It really does look like you just bit into a berry, very natural and very pretty. Good when you don't want to wear gloss, but you don't want to overdo the lipstick, either.

I guess I join the ranks of the old skoolers who got this a while back in the set of three minis - Just Bitten Strawberry, Raspberry, and Brownberry. I liked the first two, did not like the third. Unfortunately my little pusher broke off the side of the strawberry one so I had to dig in there with a lipbrush every time I needed to use it - which kind of defeats the purpose of purchasing an {allegedly} easy to touch up convenient pocket or purse sized product! I think I'll stick w/ Clinique Glosswears or my Philosophy Kiss Me Red. :)

This sheer lipstick has a semi-matte finish, so it does look like a true stain rather than a sheer lipstick. A much more natural texture than the slightly glossy or more pigmented brands. Strawberry is a bright pink-red, and makes your lips look like you've been sucking a lolly. Not really natural, but quite pretty. Raspberry is a more muted deeper pink, which looks nearly black in the tube. It looks like the natural shade of deeply-colored lips. They are a lot more long-lasting than other sheers I have tried, though the downside is a slightly dry feel. I am not 100% sold on either of the colors I have, but both are pretty and wearable. I don't like the packaging, which is a bit cheap and plasticky, though the ultraslim tube is very portable. Also, you only get 2.3g of product, which is roughly half the amount of a regular lipstick.

This is my favorite lipstick! Completely cake/flake-proof, long-lasting, and it leaves your lips with a sheer wash of color. This is my version of "your lips, but better" :)

I picked these up years ago when they first came out and you could only get them in a little set of three. I loved the colors, but the little push up bullets were too annoying to bother repurchasing.

I thought this product was OK. I purchased all three shades: Just Bitten Raspberry, Just Bitten Strawberry, and Just Bitten Brownberry. The raspberry looks real dark but goes on very light. All three are very sheer. The strawberry has a reddish tint and brownberry has more of a coral look on my lips. They are slightly drying which I did not like but do give lips that bite your lips look: color but not visible lipstick on because it is so natural. The color lasted well until you ate. Not a bad product, but too drying for me to get again.
