Lime Crime Opaque Lipstick

I have the color coquette and geradium. The coquette was really opaque, especially on pigmented lips like mine, but geradium wasn't quite as opaque. I appreciate that since these are high pigment lipsticks it will be drying but I find that the geradium one kind of balls up on my lips and catches on to the dry flakes, but coquette is quite creamy. Since then I have sold the geradium and just kept the coquette. They have a mac type vanilla scent and a super cute packaging.

I had no idea about Lime Crime before joining BR didn't know it existed. Since then i've seen so much talk of the Lime Crime lipsticks around here that it made me feel like I had to have it! So I finally took the plunge and got an opaque lipstick in coquette and also a velvetine. This is the most expensive lipstick i've ever purchased I was either going to be really happy or really disappointed, the moment I put this to my lips I was relieved to notice instantly it is far superior to every other lipstick I own.

The color I have coquette is very a light almost nude pale pink shade, one of the more subtler colors in the range. Application is smooth providing lips are hydrated /moisturised and it has a sweet vanilla scent to it. To me the quality of the formula is top notch, very opaque, rich solid color & creamy, it's a bit on the dry side I think it's a good idea to use a balm as a primer. The finish is matte, transfer is minimal as it seems to dry on the lips rather than slide off and is noticeably visible on my lips for around 4 hours.

The packaging is obviously unique which I gather is part of the reason people find this brand so alluring, and although the packaging is of sound quality it's really no better than any other lipstick I own prettiness aside.

I will definately purchase some more Lime Crime opaque lipsticks at some stage as this one has become my new favorite and I do think it's worth that extra bit of cash. Although to be honest I don't own a lot of lipsticks, about 10 all common brands like Maybelline, L'oreal, Covergirl, in comparison to these it really stands out as being far better quality.

I absolutely adore these lipsticks! Smooth, creamy, pigmented, HUGE range of colours... I honestly have nothing bad to say about these amazing lippies. They smell incredible, which is always a bonus - no one ever wants a bad smelling lip product. They are so opaque, you need one swipe with most colours and they look fantastic! I have been buying up a storm lately and bought four of these beauties. And the packaging is so cute and very eyecatching! Highly recommend them to anyone wanting a great quality lipstick!

Lime Crime is amazing not just for the good quality but the colour selection you can get for your lips is incredible whether your wanting a crazy colour like 'No she didn't'(blue) and 'New Yolk City'(yellow) for a themed party or something simple and more to the nude side of things like 'Babette'(nude pink). Recommend!

I purchased the Lime crime Babette off makeup.co.nz and I cannot wait to purchase some more colours!!! It is nice and creamy when applied, and i love how vibrant the colour is on me. Overall, fantastic purchase, i cannot wait to buy some different colours and try the velvetines!

I've always loved red lipstick, but I have a problem. I'm a natural redhead.

What this means is that I've had a life long quest for a red lipstick that doesn't look awful on me. I can look at a shade I think will be ok, and as soon as I put it on it looks orange or pink and just plain terrible!

I bought this on a whim online when I ordered my lime crime velvetine (which was also a blind buy due to the fantastic reviews on br I couldn't help myself), and on the website I fell in love with the colour Glamour 101.

When it arrived, I felt like I'd just received a present! Not only was it in gift wrapped style packaging from the retailer, but the box it came in was so pretty! Upon opening the box, I pulled out what resembled the most attractive tampon ever.. :-/ I stood there for a while staring and giggling at the oversight of the designers, and then proceeded to apply it. Omg! My quest has finally come to an end!! What I was holding was the holy grail of red lipsticks!!!!!!

Not only was it the colour I've been searching for, but the texture, shine, feel.. just everything was perfect!!!!

Now back to the shape of the lipstick.. its not just me, I showed him the lipstick and he started laughing and said the same thing. Its in the shape of a tampon. A very lovely pink tampon with a silver unicorn on it..but none the less - a tampon.

I shall forgive this oversight, because everything else about it is so perfect.

Unfortunately, it was so good, it overshadowed my principal purchase the velveteen - which while I like, I may have even loved if it wasn't for the opaque being everything and more.

The colour is a very vintage burgundy red, whenever I wear it, it makes me feel very vintage bombshell.. in fact I tend to dress to my lippy when I'm wearing it.. in fact its the shade I'm wearing in my profile picture!

I adore the Lime Crime range. Doe Deere is a genus! All the colors are so whimsical and dreamy! The lipsticks are super creamy and so full of color! Perfect for people who don't like boring colors!!

I love the colour selection, I love the colour payoff, I love the packaging, I love everything about these lipsticks. I have five of the more wearable colours, and find them all as good as each other. They are creamy and long-lasting.

Love this lippy- its matte, its funky and its unique. Stays on well but not the same as other, perhaps darker matte lipsticks I've used in the past. I bought the cosmopop shade directly from the website and every time I've worn it, its compliments galore. Very happy and looking foreward to buying my next one!

love these lipsticks so much! such amazing colour selection and are such a pigmented and creamy formula making them so easy to apply without having to add multiple layers! found them very long lasting and wear very good all day and for a night out! come off a little bit with eating but not bad at all with drinking! my favourite is 'my beautiful rocket' the bright orange shade, such an amazing colour to have in your lipstick collection! deffinatly a favourite brand after using there products.cant wait to add more of the colours to my lipstick collection!
