Lime Crime Opaque Lipstick

I have one colour from this brand and it does not suit my complexion but usually will mix it another colour. I think my colour is called Babette. Very very creamy opaque lipstick. Some what moisturing but can be quite drying if wearing for long periods. Long lasting lipstick. A very bold brand and I would love to try more of their colours. I love the packaging it is so pretty which is one of the reasons I have not gotten rid babette.

I ordered my first Lime Crime Lipstick from their website, along with a few other items.

The shade Glamour 101 is a lovely dark rose/red wine colour that suited my skin perfectly. The packaging is so cute and fun and has a nice almost sweet scent to it.

This lipstick is highly pigmented and a little goes a long way, the more you add the more intense the colour gets. This product is long wearing and keeps my lips moisturised all day long. I am keen to try a few other shades from Lime Crime, I definitely got my moneys worth with this one.

Pretty much everyone has heard about these lipsticks and how they're so good so I knew straight away I just NEEDED to try these out for myself. I have the colours: Cosmopop, Babette and Great Pink Planet. Great Pink Pink Planet is your perfect girly barbie pink. Babette is like your nude soft pink and Cosmopop a bright orange but it's not as bright as they show on their product lip swatches!

First of all I need to start with the packaging! It is so funky and cute and I just love how the packaging is purple with unicorns and stars. Yes it does seem a little immature and it's not as chic as most other lipsticks but it's different and stands out among the rest and I love that. It's fun.

They are matte and very pigmented, you honestly do not need to apply much to get full cover which is great because it seems they will last longer as they are on the pricey side. They can feel drying but just apply lip balm straight before you apply the lippy and it's algood. These last ages on your lips, the only downside is they wear eating or drinking. I constantly apply lip balm throughout the day so i imagine that could 'wear' the lippy off like how it does with other lip sticks I have but that doesn't happen with these (hope you know what I'm trying to say).

The only stand out thing with these that I dislike is that when you have a drink they transfer onto the cup and it's very obvious but looking at your lips the colour is still there which is great but it's just annoying having lippy all over your cup haha.

Would I buy more? Going by the lipsticks themselves I definitely would but I'm actually loving MAC matte lipsticks alot more than these. There has been alot of drama surrounding the company but they're still good lip sticks. Please note if your after natural looking colours Lime Crime is not for you as pretty much all the colours are pretty out there and bright!

OMG i love these lipsticks, from the lipstick its self to the funky packaging i love them. they are very pigmented and come in such awesome colours, the only downfall i have with them is that sometimes i find they "slip" or move on my lips and can become a bit messy when not used with a lip liner, however using a brush to apply them tend to hold them in place

Firstly I'm very sad that these lipsticks are being discontinued but if you can get your hands on them I definitely recommend them! Their colour range is amazing and I own around 8 or 9 of their more 'different' shades myself. Most of the colours stay on very well as long as you don't eat oily foods but I've noticed my shade 'serpentina' a metallic green which is my favourite of the colours has a lesser staying power and is also quite easily smudged. But overall I love these and definitely recommend!

By far the BEST lipsticks i have ever tired!!! super creamy they just glide on and last all day. The packaging is super cute purple with a glittery unicorn, the smell is devine and the colours are so unique i can tell a LC lippie from any other lipstick just by the colour alone. I ahve used these on multiple shoots and the models love the lipsticks so much so they ask me to order them some and they just stand out so much!!! I have ALL of them too

I have glamour101 shade and I love it to pieces! I am now looking at getting some of the other shades so I can wear it everyday instead of just at night time when I go out (as glamour101 is a red). it is creamy, moisturising, doesn't bleed, covers dry chapped lips amazingly, and it lasts for ages! I went out to lunch and it was basically still on except for a little patch in the middle of my lips. I'm very impressed!

Babette is the best ever lipstick I have ever known, and ignited my passion for Lime Crime. Firstly it is just so damn pretty in its purple barrel with silver/glitter unicorn and star pattern I can spend hours just staring at my pretties, its also very effective at its job of containing the lipstick, the lid is fitted just right to not come off in your bag, so you are safe to travel without fear of wrecking it. Secondly the lipstick itself is heaven, from its luxurious soft application which can be on the side of soft so be careful with it if you live in a warmer than normal situation or you might snap it., but the colour is intensely pigmented with one swipe enough to fully coat both upper and lower lip. Even after blotting the colour is still there with just as much oomph!! To cap off the lipstick has a divine vanilla scent to it which brings a smile to my lips each and every time. Lime Crime has a way of making putting make up on fun and that is how everyone should live, for fun!!!

Update: Babette has been toppled by the mighty Poisonberry this is my ultimate Opaque lipstick by Lime Crime

It is one amazing lipstick nice and creamy just in love with it and omgosh the colours are just amazing too. One lipstick brand a girl shouldn't go without :)

I have this in Glamour 101. This is definately an opaque lipstick with maximum coverage. No need to layer up to get the colour payoff with this lippy! This goes on creamy and stays creamy throughout. The colour range is not huge however, the colours available are fun! Thi s has great staying power too.
