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

Limecrime lipstick review

The lime crime opaque lipstick range is so amazing. To begin with, the packaging is probably my favorite out of all lipstick packaging. The lipsticks look great on show because of the vibrant purple casing with the silver unicorn on it. Even when they are empty, I like to keep the packaging because it is so pretty. The range of colors is very out there. I tend to go for the more orange/red/purple tones such as glamour101 and poisonberry but not the yellows or blues. What stands out to me about these lipsticks is that they are one of the only range with such unique colours. Many lipstick brands just stick to the red/orange/nudes or pinks but limecrime have gone to an extra level. The colors are fun, great for a night out or a costume party and what is a plus is that the pigmentation is SO powerful. They definitely do stick to what they advertise. This range stays true to the description and buyers will definately not be disappointed. My reasoning behind 4/5 on using it again and recommending to a friend is that not all people would be into these colors and they are not very cheap to purchase. However these lipsticks are worth the cost!

Tips: My only tip would to be for buyers to watch lip swatch videos prior to purchase to ensure that they would wear or suit the colours as they are very unique :)

Love Lime Crime

I have 3 Lime Crime Opaque Lipsticks and I love them!! I have Great Pink Planet (my absolute fave!!), Geradium and Centrafuschia. All these a pink tones and look beautiful on.

I wear Lime Crime everyday and love the bright, fun colours and the fact that they are so long wearing. They wear really well and are very pigmented.

I would highly recommend Lime Crime to everyone wanting a bright, bold lipstick that will last hours!!

Tips: All Lime Crime Lipsticks are matte and very opaque. If you are wanting a glossy lipstick then these are not the right lippy for you. However if it is a matte look you are after then you have come to the right brand!!

❤️❤️❤️

These are my fave lippies. So opaque n long lasting. Some weird colours but even those are super pigmented. My favourite lipsticks by far. These lipsticks are extremely creamy. It glides and acts as a second skin on the lips. Love the fact that it's vegan as well. The colours are wild too. Have chinchilla and although it looks unwearable it is a beautiful colour. One coat is opaque enough to last a good 4 hours when eating food that's hard to come by. $30 a piece is worth it. TRUST ME! You will definitely not be disappointed with these. My favourite is poisonberry. The vamp berry colour is just exquisite and wearable for any situation. Coquette and babette are strong nudes. These two colours are extremely opaque for a nude. It looks like it has a white base tone but are incredibly beautiful! Try any one and you'll see what I mean. They're addictive!

Tips: No need for vase or balm, just exfoliate lips n apply

Such Funky Packaging!

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!

Babette & Geradium

I had heard so many rave reviews from the BR ladies on these little gems that I finally had to try them. I picked the shades Geradium and Babette.First off packaging – this is the most fun vibrant funky little tube of lipstick I have ever owned with its bright purple/pink canitster and silver stars and unicorn it’s a definate standout in my books !.Before both colours I made sure to prime my lips with a scrub and a lip balm as I had heard these can be a little drying. Babette – I was super dying to try this colour the swatch on the lime crime website is a nude pinky corally colour which I thought would be a perfect nude for me on my lips – however in real life the colours are not the same. In the tube it looks like a nude pink based colour I still actually luckily really love babette for me , its much more pinky in the tube and on my lips than the official swatch but I did still love this. It applied easily not streaky or patchy glides on and is super pigmented and opaque. I am pleased I used a lip balm first as these are a little on the dry side although with the right priming it wasn’t an issue. This did transfer to my coffee cup which I really hate but on the bright side when I checked my lips they werent patchy or horrible they still looked the same so im happy with that I don’t know how that works but it did. This wore for a few hours easily before needing to be touched up. I am definitely pleased I purchased this colour – this will be an everyday easy to use staple for me I think just the right kind of shade for my skin tone. A really good bright nude. Geradium – I actually ordered this one by mistake but again super happy I did. I was dissapointed that again the lime crime official swatch actually isnt what I got in my hot little hands – however I was lucky that I am a huge fan of pinky based lipsticks so this still was a great lippie for me. The lime crime official swatch has a totally different pink tone to what you get in real life its much more barbieesque and pink. Again this is super pigmented and applied brilliantly you don’t need to use a lot to get a super opaque finish. This was a bright standout colour probably not for everyone but I have always loved a bright pink so this fits nicely into my collection. This had a similar problem to Babette in that it did transfer to your coffee mugs etc but again it didn’t leave you with nothing on your lips it somehow still looks the same. Again this lasted a few hours before needing a redo which is good in my books. These are quite a pricey lipstick and while I do actually love the colours I got I wouldn’t buy anymore as their swatches just don’t match what you actually get I was lucky I loved mine but I don’t understand how they are so different.All in all though these are a neat little addition to my collection and I am not unhappy with my purchases.

Tips: These are super opaque so you don't need to use alot

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 :)

Love for something different

After so much talk about Lime Crime and how great the lipsticks are I wanted to try for myself. I'm not a huge wearer of bright coloured lipsticks because I feel like my thin lips don't suit them so I brought "babette" because it was one of the more subtle coloured ones.

The lipstick bullet itself is so pretty and one that I have never had even remotely similar to this one. The pastel purple coloured bullet has silver unicorns and stars over it with the lime crime logo printed on it as well

The lipstick itself looks peachy pink before I apply i freshly scrub my lips then apply some lip balm. I had read about people finding it drying so I thought it was probably in my best interests to apply lip balm I also think this helps a lot with matte lipsticks so they don't sink and have that cracked look.

When I apply it it goes on smoothly It's really full coverage I think I put on 2 coats the colour on my lips is like a nude peach I felt like it stuck nicely to my lips it smells yum too. Like cocoa butter? I did have a coffee and noticed the lip marks on the cup but not to worry my lips still looked the same. I was 3 hours before I reapplied I thought this was pretty good going and when I reapplied it the colour had faded but it hadn't gone all patchy. I really like this for something different

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 de crime

I have 3 of these: Geradium, croquette and centrefushia. Honestly, I dont know what to do with them. The colours aren't what was advertised and I just dont like the way they sit in my lips.

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.
