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

Centrifuschia

I had some friends that were really into Lime Crime - but I could never justify the price to myself for something I just wasn't sure on. When they came on sale in Boxing Day sales I thought, maybe this is my time to try. So I grabbed Centrifuschia, I didn't end up keeping it long - and then a friend overseas surprised me with another one. I thought I had better really try, since she had gone out of her way to get it. The purple and silver tube with a unicorn on it is undeniably cute. But it is one of the only things I like - the other being the scent (a nice sweet vanilla smell)

To me the lipstick is nice and creamy - but it is hard to keep in the right place and makes a disaster of a mess. Centrifuschia really isn't my colour, it can look amazing on some people - but for me it makes my teeth look awful and I feel like a kid that got into my Mum's bright lipstick. When I finally got it right it didn't last very long on, and it stains my lips quite a bit.

Due to the ethics of the creator and the less than impressive performance compared to many of my other lipsticks, I don't think I would purchase again.

Lasted for about half an hour

I didn't eat or drink and all of a sudden my lippy had worn off. I own about 100+ lipsticks in different brands and I was heartbroken that I didn't fall in love with Limecrime after falling in love with the colours straight away. I use other products to seal the colour now but it pretty disappointing!

Disappointing

I got the colour Geradium, and I was really disappointed with it to be honest. I've heard such good things about it from other people, but I really didn't like it. No matter how well I prepped my lips it still looked dry and flaky when I put it on, so much so that I was never confident enough to wear it out because it looked so uneven! I've never had this problem with any other lipstick, so I have to assume that it was the lipstick and not my lips.

On the ledge.

Lime crime has to be the most funky vibrant packaged product you can get, i thought the colors are very unique, I'm a huge fan of pinks and funky colors so when my first package arrived with Babette,Croquette & Geradium i was overly exited as i stated the packaging was so cool made me feel like a kid again, After a few wears i found that the colours weren't as moisturizing as i would have liked and found myself reapplying a lot, but basically the color was so to dye for you just sucked it up :) awesome pigments and semi good prices!

Tips: Don't by them of places like trade me there are too many copy ones out there! there are videos on you tube etc showing how to tell if you get a fake :)

Lime Crime Lipsticks

I feel al most scared to write this review as so many people love these lipsticks so much then there is me who doesn't like them. Lets start with the packaging, it has to be one of the most out there of any lipsticks i have seen, some people might find it kind of child like but it is actually beautiful in real life and looked amazing in my lipstick stand! I first brought babette as it is one of the more wearable colours and is very popular, it is a peachy pink very pretty colour! i really wanted to love this lipstick colour but no matter what it gave me a horrible lipstick line around my mouth and was quite drying so i ended up selling babette and thought id pick another colour because they were so raved about and maybe i just didn't like the colour all that much. So the next colour i got was coquette it is some what similar to babette but more on the nude side, again it did the same as babette left my lips dry and the horrible lipstick line. I am really sad that i didn't like both of them and that they didn't sit on my lips good. I wont be trying any other colours as some of them are just to out there for me. I paid 18 USD for both of mine so for a lipstick they weren't that bad of a price. I sold both and got my money back! I would still recommend these lipsticks to a friend as they might love them as they are very raved about lipsticks!

Lime Crime in Glamour 101

I bought this for I think NZD$29 and was super excited to try it out. Packaging is adorable and looks great in my collection however that's as much as it's good for. The colour is definitely opaque so I can't fault that but found that it bleeds quite a bit and doesn't last as long as I thought it would. I get that it is a glossy formula but this was beyond usable for extended periods. And with is being such an opaque and vibrant colour you could easily see where it had smudged. Disappointed but still cute though lol

Tips: Not for you if you like long-wearing lip colours (at least not this shade)

Not vegan

Last I heard this company claimed to be vegan but wasn’t… I loved the products until I found that out. If that’s your cup of tea then sweet as great product! Otherwise say no to animal cruelty xx

They're okay

With the ultra cute packaging, wild colours and creamy consistency it's hard to look past Lime Crime lippies unfortunately they just fall a bit flat for me.

The colours just don't show up the opaque for me and really don't seem to match the photos used in promo materials.

Yes they are creamy but they are also super prone to melting into a gooey mess on a lukewarm day and just randomly break, really unpractical. If you're going to use a super creamy formula that isn't even remotely stable put that stuff in a pot and call it a day. I've depotted a few of mine because they're fun and I paid a fair amount for them so I want to use them even though they went all weird frankenlippie on me in the first week.

A Bit Pricey

I only own Airborne Unicorn which is a lovely pinky-lilac shade, I like the colour and it suits my skin tone so I will continue to use it however I don't think it is as great as it hyped up to be. The particular shade I have is very creamy, opaque and has good colour payoff however, it only lasts a couple of hours which is fine but for the price I'd expect a bit more. It has a pleasant scent, it smells slightly of vanilla? I'm not sure that I'd purchase again unless I got a colour on sale, I feel like I spent my money on packaging rather than an amazing product.

Slightly dissapointed :(

After seeing the massive hype over Limecrime lippys, I decided to take the plunge and buy 1 online. I decided on Babette which had only just released, I did alot of research into swatches on othe pale skin, blonde haired girls like me so I had a good idea of the colour and how it would suit me.

I don't know if I recieved an odd one out but the colour in the bullet looks nothing like pictures ive seen online and on my lips it is more of a neon coral rather then the softer more pinkier colour that it seems to look like on others.

Application is not great. Goes on patchy and chunky, isnt creamy and requires blending with a finger to blend and sheer it out to be more wearable.

This may just be more of a personal experience for me but after all the hype thats around I was dissapointed by Babette. I would love to try Geradium and Cosmopop but am very apprehensive to try. I do love the colour range, I love when I see girls rocking the more out there colours, wish I could be as daring!

Tips: If possible try before buying
