Lime Crime Opaque Lipstick

Lime Crime lipsticks are such awesome and interesting colours! My personal favourites include babette - quite neutral, pinky nude, great pink planet - a pastel pink with neon note, centrifuschia - fuchsia pink, geradium - light coral with neon note and countessa - cool based neon pink - yes I tend to stick with the pinks/neutrals but would love to try the more unusual tones such as serpentina - metallic green, airborne unicorn - candy purple, mint to be - mint green, new yolk city - banana yellow and no she didn't - bubblegum blue. They last amazingly (hours) and have super cool packaging! What more could you want!? With a RRP for $32 they are quite reasonably priced - a little goes a long way, and being a matte finish they do wear/last well! They are definitely a unique range of colours and I love that! Recommended to anyone that likes something a little different!

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 can't get over the packaging of these lipsticks they have unicorns on them!!! The shape of the bullets remind me of MAC lipsticks. The formula is very creamy and glide like butter. Shade range are very daring super unique colours. Such good lipsticks if you want to make a statement.

I was lucky enough to receive one of these from one of my friends from on BR. I had never tried Lime Crime or a purple lipstick! So when I received this in Poisonberry it crossed two things off my list. Poisonberry is a dark purple which is truly unique and beautiful.

I love Lime Crime packaging. From the light purple packaging with the silver accents. And I love the silver unicorn heads and stars. Very beautiful and original. The bullet itself also has a nice point to it which I really appreciate as with such strong colours you need to be able to get a strong line around the lips.

The formulation itself feels very creamy and glides onto the lips. It goes on to the lips very opaquely in one swipe which I think is great. Now this shade is extremely purple so I haven't actually gotten the confidence to wear it out of the house yet. It is just so far out of my comfort zone! I find that the shade actually stains my lips to some degree so it stays on my lips for a very long time.

Now there is a lot of controversy around this brand (google it if you haven't heard). I don't think that this will stop me buying from this brand, but the colours and finishes aren't my usual choice so I most likely won't be purchasing from this brand again for that reason.

I like limecrime lipsticks, they are gorgeous and the colour range is awesome (not to mention the packaging) but I just don't agree with the company, so I probably wont buy any more, just use the ones I have. However if you want opaque colours that might be hard to find elsewhere then these are great.

Was so excited to receive this product, has great pigmentation, long lasting etc but is super thick which i cannot stand! Not very moisturising but would definitely buy more for the colour and the colour only. Sucks to hear what has happened with the company and will no longer be purchasing any lime crime products or recommending them to friends or family

When I first started Beauty Review I had no idea about different brands and the quality of them. Since being on Beauty Review I became aware of Lime Crime. Lime Crime is an American Brand. Lime Crime to me is tailored to a women who likes to be daring with colours and make bold bright statements. I love the different range of colours they have.

Honestly I dreamed of having a Lime Crime lipstick because I am one of those girls who likes to be daring with different colours. I'd love to have at least one of every colour in this range. All the speculation around Lime Crime has not deterred me from wanting to try more from their range.

This Lime Crime lipstick comes in this pinky purple lipstick holder. I love these unicorns and stars on it. I'm a sucker for a Unicorn. I open it up to find a silver lipstick inside it. This colour I purchased was Geradium. It's a bright pink colour. It smells like vanilla lollies. I love scented lipstick.

Application with this lipstick was smooth. It didn't have lasting power for me. I'm not sure if it's because I brought it second hand or not. I will purchase a new one to test this theory out further.

Update: I went to get Centrifuschia and Retrofuturist. I am very sad that these will be discontinued they are really gorgeous.

My results were bright bold lips. Didn't have much lasting power. I got two limecrime lippys for $20. They were second hand. I'd love to experience them Brand new. I do love Lime Crime. I call my lipstick, my precious lol. I'm so thankful to have got it at the price I got it at.

I purchased the 'Retrofuturist' Lipstick for my ball because i was looking for an amazingly bright red and i was not disappointed. The colour pay off is amazing and it lasts so well. I did not have to reapply at all in the 5 hours, it did not bleed or feather and even when it eventually wares it does so nicely. I love this lipstick and the colour but would only repurchase in store because of the dodgy stuff that has happened on their website.

I LOVE these lipsticks! They are so pigmented and the stay power of them is fantastic. I now own 5 and I want more! The first colour I purchased was Geradium it is the perfect pinky coral, after receiving this colour I was hooked! This was followed closely by Centrifuchsia which is a deep Fuchsia pink, Glamour 101 which is a deep red, Babette which is a really nice pink/salmon/nude. And the last colour I purchased is Poisonberry (MY FAV) is a deep berry purple. I love the formula of these lipsticks they are nice and creamy and don’t dry out my lips. A lot of these colours are not for the faint hearted as they provide a real pop of colour, they are perfect for a night out to help dress up an outfit! I did purchase these lipsticks before all the controversy happened with the company and the customers so I am in 2 minds about repurchasing, which is such a huge disappoint as I love the lipsticks!

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.
