This was my first time trying Lime Crime Lipsticks, I got the shades Cosmopop & Coquette. I absolutely adore the packaging. It is so cute and I love the unicorns! Secondly they smell divine!. I would love to own the whole collection.
These lipsticks are so creamy, long lasting and have fabulous color pay off. I'm so in love with how Cosmopop and Coquette look together. If you have tried this duo you totally need these 2 lippys in your life. I like how they are Vegan also. For me its important that products are cruelty free as well and these opaque lipsticks tick all of the boxes.
On applying I put a lip balm on to ensure my lips stayed hydrated (holy grail step for me). When applying these lipsticks you may have to do 2 coats to ensure the best color pay off. These go on some creamy, I'm very impressed with them and they last for quite a while which is a bonus. I cant wait to try all the other colors that range from natural/everyday - night/dramatic colors.
This was my first experience with a lime crime lipstick. I found that it required two coat to create an even colour. It is a very strong and vibrant colour, and heaps of fun! The lipsticks contain a lipstain, so after the lipstick wears off there is still some colour left on your lips. For me, this is definitely not an everyday lipstick, as I found I had to re-apply it several times and because of the thickness of it, I was a bit concerned about it smudging over time. It is a lot of fun to wear for a night out though, when you want to make a bit of a statement with your lipcolour! I'm definitely going to try one of the more adventurous colours at some point.
Tips: Make sure you place your thumb between your lips before you go out - to remove any lipstick from the inside of your lips. This helps to avoid the awkward lipstick marks on your teeth!
