Bold. Opaque. Recklessly loaded with pigment. For lips that speak louder than words.

Lime Crime Centrifuschia Opaque Lipstick

This is the first lime crime lipstick I bought. I did buy it second hand because I didn't really want to order off the site at that time and a friend of mine didn't want to keep it as they had only used it a couple times. First off I think the case is nice pink toned lavender which stands out from my other lipsticks that come in black tubes. The silver stars and the unicorn on the tube are a really nice touch. Centrifuschia is as you probably guessed is a vibrant pink fuschia. It does have a creme to satin sheen and goes on smoothly and very opaque. The lipstick has a sort of fake vanilla scent to it. Not the worst vanilla scent, it just doesn't smell like vanilla pods. This Lime Crime lipstick lasts on my lips a long time. I find that I can eat and drink and I'll still have a lot of color on my lips. Even after six hours and two meals later, I find that the color is faded a bit at the sides and worn out in the middle but my lips are still vibrant fuschia. The cons of this product would be that it's more of a dry feeling when I use this lipstick once the lipstick has gone on it feels pretty dry on my lips. Another is that it transfers onto anything that touches my lips - food, cups, loved ones, etc. I once was eating an apple while wearing this and ended up with lip marks of vibrant fuschia on my nose and around my nose and chin. Luckily I was near a ladies room so was able to wipe it off, but it did get a few people looking at me awkwardly before a lady kindly pointed it out. That being said most lipsticks will transfer on to cups, water bottles and love ones (if you like to kiss them). As a lipstick this is a good lipstick. It's not my favorite or the one I reach for the most, but at the time of writing this I think that's because of the color and how it will show up on anything my lips touch. However, it is the only fuschia lipstick I own at the moment and I do like to wear the shade from time to time. I'm not sure if I would repurchase this brand though but that's mainly because of the price, shipping and the security issues with the site and as far as their lipsticks go I definitely prefer their Velvetines to their regular lipsticks.

Tips: Exfoliate your lips before applying this. If you are going to wear this lipstick please avoid spherical, remotely spherical shaped foods like apples for example. This lipstick will still be able to transfer even when it feels dry to touch. After eating if you can’t touch up your lipstick, rub your top and bottom lips together to make the fade less noticeable. I didn't buy this lipstick off the site but I did an order when my credit card was about to expire, I didn't have any issues with security.

Awesome Lippy!

I absolutely ADORE Lime Crime Lippies! They are super pigmented, the colour pay off is AMASING! The product itself is super creamy. The packaging is one of my fave things about the product as well, purple tube with a unicorn! So cute! I also love the fact it is vegan and cruelty free, and always reach for these lippys as they are awesome colours!

Tips: They can bleed a little bit so use a lip liner, or apply with a brush :)

Super pigmented

I have geradium and I am really impressed with the opacity. The colour is very vibrant and staying power is beyond 6 hours. The wear is pretty good but does go a tiny bit frosty looking. Very pretty. Will definitely purchase more.

Hello Lip Colour

This stuff is lip colour on steroids! All the colours are so pigmented & really pop on your lips. I have Cosmopop (a peachy colour) & I just adore it. It is not for the faint hearted though. If you are looking for a blend into the crowd colour these lippys are not it. They apply really nice & smooth and you only need a coat or 2 for the colour to really stand out. The packaging is also super cute & the lipstick also is really pleasant smelling. I wish I had the guts to wear more of these colours so I can add more to my growing collection of lip sticks

Tips: Not a bad idea to line your lips first to keep your colour in place longer & keep your edges nice & clean

Geradium and Retrofuturist.

The very first thing you will notice about these lipsticks is the packaging. They come in a purple case with a holographic unicorn. This was one of the reasons I really, really wanted to own a Lime Crime lipstick - as I am obsessed with anything that has unicorns on it.

I had read mixed reviews about Lime Crime lipsticks - and I had heard some really unfavourable things about its creator that prevented me from initially trying anything by the company. However my curiosity couldn't hold me back anymore and I have friends who swear by these, so I decided to give them a go.

The first lipstick I will review is Geradium. This is a hot, fluro pink. If you aren't into seriously bold lipstick then you don't want to go near this. It applies amazingly easily - it's super creamy and opaque but it doesn't feel thick. I only need one swipe to get amazing coverage and colour payoff - this is seriously pigmented.

I didn't have any issues with it bleeding or feathering throughout the day (although I have read other people say they have). I didn't use a lip liner either. This was applied at 9am and lasted well up until 9pm. Seriously. I did touch it up twice throughout the day as I wanted it to remain bright and fresh, but I am convinced I could have gotten away with one touch up if I had wanted.

This is easily one of my favourite lipsticks - I love the colour, how pigmented it is and the packaging makes my inner child squeal.

As for Retrofuturist - this is a super bold, bright almost neon red. It's more yellow toned than blue - which I like as it suits my skin tone better.

Like Geradium this is super pigmented and creamy. Again, one application was all I needed to get brilliant colour payoff. I didn't use a lip liner when wearing this and there was slight feathering - so I recommend using a liner if you want to wear this.

Also like Geradium, this lasted literally all day. Again I did touch it up twice as I wanted the bold colour but you really don't need to worry about these fading and looking patchy throughout the day.

I absolutely love this and got a few compliments whilst wearing it.

Overall I would absolutely purchase more from this range - I hope to build my collection up as I love these so much. The only criticism I have is that they are slightly drying to your lips - I got around this by applying lip balm before applying it. Also, these do stain your lips a bit as they are soooo pigmented. I found that my regular way to remove lipstick (using a baby wipe), didn't get rid of all of the lipstick. I got around this by using a lip scrub and it was gone.

I highly recommend these - the packaging is incredible and the lipsticks themselves are brilliant quality.

I highly recommend this lipstick!

I have about 8 of these lipsticks. I highly recommend this brand because it works very well. The lipstick is highly pigmented and has a smooth finish. Very easy to apply on the lips as it goes on smoothly. You only need a little bit because of the pigmentation also you do not need to keep reapplying. Although it can get a bit drying, I didn't find that a problem because I always use a lip balm under my lipsticks. The smell is amazing, a bit like lollies. And the cute as packaging? Sooo uber cute, the lilac with holographic unicorn! And the best of all is that this lipstick is vegan and not tested on animals! Love this brand!

Tips: Use a little for they are long lasting!

Poisonberry

After a lot of research, and hearing rave reviews, I finally "caved" and bought the Lime Crime lipstick Poisonberry. I was immediately impressed at how pigmented it is; a little goes a long way! It is also a beautiful hue for those that want to go dark but are a bit hesitant, as Poisonberry has a nice dark pink hue and shimmer to it. Grungy yet can be worn both girly and sophisticated - love!

As with most dark lipsticks, I found that it would benefit greatly from lipliner as it does tend to smear and bleed across the lip line. It did smear and definitely came off on things, like on glasses and my husband (sorry, darling! hehe), but it was as much as any other dark lipstick. However, what sets it apart is that it didn't seem to affect the color on the lips too much.

The consistency of the lipstick is what really did it for me. It is very creamy and stays creamy all day. At first, this particular hue seemed a bit harder to put on than the more pastel colors I sampled, but seems to be softening up with each use.

Tips: Use a lip liner to prevent bleeding - lighter liner to make the color pop more, pink or red to bring out the lighter hues and shimmer.

Can be used with a lip brush or straight from the tube.

Poisonberry is pigmented, but doesn't seem as pigmented as the pastel colors. Maybe because it is dark? Not sure. While it kept it's color around the outside of the lips amazingly well, I did find myself needing to reapply in the inside.

My friend purchased Poisenberry and on a night out had it with her as we were getting ready. She mentioned it was not pigmented at all! Ive seen it on too and It' def. not as pigmented/opaque as I had thought! Interesting to hear your thoughts :)
