Can anyone compare Bitten and Rare Berry?

I have and love Peachy Keen, Nectar, Sweet Nothing, Seedy & Bitten. I love the sheer color formula w/no shimmer.
I'm looking for a similar shade to Bitten but a little more sheer in color since this one is more pigmented. Is Rare Berry a more muted/toned down version since it is a cream? Or is it really pink?

There are swatches of both in this thread

Rare Berry is pinker than Bitten, but not really a cool-toned type of pink if that makes sense. Personally, I don't find Rare Berry as sheer as the other colors you mentioned, it is more of a cream (opaque/pigmented) type of color. Have you considered Strawberry Fields? It is a beautiful sheer red, more sheer than Bitten.

ITA, Bitten was opaque on me, definitely a cool red. Strawberry fields is warm (probably due to my lips). I mix it with The Village to make it more neutral.

Thank you I didn't notice Strawberry Fields! Strawberry Fields and Rare Berry look very close in the swatch pics to me. Rare Berry just looks a touch warmer. But I know it can look totally different on my lips than on someone's arm, lol. Ugh, now I want them both, lol. I'm trying to pare down my order not add more! ha ha! Now to choose which eyeshadows!

Arm swatches are a little deceiving in this case, they're pretty different on the lips. They are both nice colors, but if you're looking for something in the sheer, no shimmer formula (similar to peachy keen, seedy, etc) I'd go with Strawberry Fields.

I'd get Strawberry Fields too. They both do look similar on my lips but Rare Berry is a tad warmer and slightly less sheer.
