Lip stain that goes on liquid and dries completely matte. Touch-proof, long-wearing, and utterly addictive!

Pink Velvet: hard to apply but worth the hassle!

I have the Pink Velvet one and despite loving the colour, I have mixed feelings about the product. As someone who can barely colour in between the lines, I initially struggled with its application as it is really runny and bound to go everywhere (and I mean EVERYWHERE; waaay beyond your lip line). Your hair, your face, your clothes; nothing will be spared if you're not careful!

Once it is on and it has dried it is a fabulous shade of pink. The matte consistency is rather drying though, so make sure to moisturize your lips before and after wearing this lipstick.

Tips: Apply with caution! You need a slow and steady hand to master this product.

Love it

I currently only have this product in "Red Velvet". It is the perfect true red and will match many skin times. It lasts for hours and stays true to colour.

It is highly pigmented and at first feels unusual during application, very wet. However, it dries very fast and creates a perfect classic lip.

Update: I bought the "pink velvet" version of this and although this a beautiful pink colour the formula is not as good as the "red velvet". Although the colour is much more wearable and suitable for everyday use, the formula lets it down.

Tips: If you've read that it's kiss proof - don't believe it. Be careful to only get the product on your lips of it can stain/ruin your foundation.

Thanks for that! I can't stand having dry lips and my bf hates getting lipstick on him :P

In my experience no, probably peck proof though! I didn't find it too drying, occasionally had noticeably dry lips..but the pink velvet definitely had a chemical taste to it.

Fantastic review - I was wondering if these were kiss proof. Is this drying on your lips?

Amazing!

I've always had the problem with any kind of lip product of the product rubbing off fast so I've never been able to wear lipsticks/stains out to any place where I can't reapply or where I'm eating. I ordered the black velvetine on a whim one night as I didn't have a good black lip colour and thought I may as well give it a shot. The first time I wore it out, I decided to give it a shot out at a dinner in town. I worried for no reason going to the bathroom every few bites to check it, nothing noticeable had happened to the stain and my lips were still black in all the right spots (no smudging). This is a product I would use many times over.

Tips: To stop the product drying your lips as much, apply chap stick or any moisturizing lip balm no more than an hour before you apply the lip stain.

OMG!! LOVE LOVE LOVE LIMECRIME!!

I have Pink Velvet and i love love love it!!! Its a nice deep fuchsia pink colour. Gorgeous packaging as always from lime crime! I love the roses!! :) The wand makes the lippy easy to apply too. The formula drys to a matte finish and you don't need to reapply very often like other lippys. It has awesome staying power, it lasts for hours!! If you have dry lips you definately need to moisturise first with a lip balm. I have also put a gloss over the top if my lips feel a little dry and have found it to last well also. It smells nice too! I would love to get Utopia as well!! They are worth the money and I definately would recommend this lippy to anyone!! :)

Tips: Mositurise first with a good lip balm and use a good make up remover to remove!! :)

Suedeberry velvetine

I loooooove the look of matte on lips, think its gorg. But for reason I found that the formulation of this product, although it did stay all day and didn't budge, was extremely drying on the lips. Also the colour was slightly darker than what I was expecting. All in all a better than average product with minor problems

Tips: Make sure you moisturise your lips like crazy before you use.

#1 lipstick!

I've heard so many reviews on this line, I've watched shaaanxo, and many other Beauty gurus on YouTube review this product, so I thought I'd give it a go! I bought the pink velvet it cost me $29 from a store here in dunedin. I was so excited I had to put it on straight away! And oh my goddess I was blown away with how amacing it looked when it dried on my lips!! Every mirror I walked past I had to have alook. I got home about 5-6 hours after applying it and it was still on!!! Hardly worn off & I hadn't touched it up or anything. I'm so so in love with this lipstick, I will definatly be repurchasing!!! My holy grail product.

Brilliant!

Long lasting, super pigmented and doesn't dry your lips out. Can be hard to put on though but once dry turns matte and lasts a long time so no need to worry about re apply for ages!

Tips: don't apply to lips straight away, swipe wand ontop of opening to get rid of excess, makes it easier to apply!

There is no comparasin

I LOVE THESE. And as they are a little pricey for my pocket i went in search of cheaper dupes. But after trying a few of the other 'matte lip laquer' type lippies It didn't take long to conclude that there is NOTHING in this world that is as good as these! These are the Lip sticks of all lip sticks and I love them. The packaging is cute, the colour pay off is fab and only a little product is needed AND it lasts HOURS!!! They are worth their money for sure and If my pocket allowed, I'd have them all!!! <3 <3

Tips: A little goes a long way, start off with a little bit and build up as neccessary to prevent 'bleeding' over the lip line

Perfect pout every time

I finally made the decision to buy a Lime Crime velvetine in wicked, i was amazed at how it did not dry my lips out at all as some other long wearing brands have done, and how well it lasted, I went with my husband to a 5 coarse dinner and did not have to reapply at all, not once, i drank and ate my way through the evening and still had the perfect pout.

Tips: I found it helpful to use a lipliner before hand so it was easy to apply the actual velvetine without getting any bleeding waiting for it to dry. and also to create the perfect line.

Suedeberry

This is such a gorgeous colour, I like the fact that it is more of a light red than a deep red. This formula does stay on for a very long time and won't come off throughout the day depending on what you eat. I did find that certain foods and drinks can make it slightly transferrable. But it is still very quality for the price.

Tips: Just carry it with you and you will have no problems with it coming off
