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

LOOOOOOOOOOOOVE

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!

Simply the best in my opinion

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

Thanks for mentioning the vanilla scent, my most hated thing about lipsticks is that so many of them smell gross so I'll have to give Lime Crime a go- thanks!!

Ultimate Favourite

The Lime Crime lipsticks are my ultimate favourite liptsticks. I started my collection when the brand first started out, and I loved having colours on my lips that raised eyebrows and received questions and compliments. The colour range that Lime Crime offers is wonderful. From the bold to the softer, there is a shade to suit everyone. The formula is soft, creamy and extremely pigmented. It is long lasting on the lips and eventually fades to an even pastel shade, rather than peeling or flaking. I prefer the formula over the MAC lipsticks, as it is less drying and more pigmented in comparison (not to mention cheaper!). Whether you reach for something simple or adventurous, I 100% recommend the Lime Crime range of lipsticks.

Tips: Nicole Guerriero has an excellent review and swatch video of the Lime Crime lipsticks.

Babette

I bought this online due to it being nowhere around. I loved the packaging but was worried about the colour. I opened it up and thought, oh heck, this will drain me..my english pale skin will rejoice with more pale items! However, I gingerly put it on (with no makeup) and thought it was ok. When i put it on with make up i was blown away! It really suited me! Is is very pigmented and lovely and creamy, but not too creamy so it will last. I want some more lippy's to try of this brand! Really enjoyed it!

Tips: Use a lip brush first time applying as it pigments very quick and could send you into a blind panic. Take your time.

Good to hear Babette suits pale skin tones, I was a bit unsure if I should get it.

Lime crime is delish

My all time favourite lipstick brand. The colours are bold and different it has a lovely thick and creamy texture. It photographs amazing, the fact that it's vegan friendly is awesome. It is a little pricey but well worth it. This brand is a must have if you like bold and vibrant lips or if your like me and like different colours.

Tips: If you get the lighter colours like yellow apply blot reapply and then apply finishing powder.

Fun, quirky & great quality.

I do very much like Lime Crime. I used these lipsticks years ago before they became super popular and always was impressed with the cutesy packaging, the pretty range of colours and the fabulous opaque rich pigmented colour pay off. Any shade of lippy you want, you can find and they are a dream to apply. I find they dont dry your lips out and last very well.

Tips: As with all rich pigmented lipsticks the best thing to do is make sure your setting your lipstick up to last! Apply concealer around the mouth and apply your lipstick with a brush, this will ensure perfect shape and longer wear!

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.

Very pigmented lipsticks

I have never tried lipsticks as pigmented as the Lime Crime ones. They are intense so I wouldn't recommend them to girls just starting out using make up.

I LOVE the packaging- it is just so gorgeous, no other brand compares, plus they are vegan and cruelty free. The lipsticks have a lovely vanilla scent that isn't too overpowering. I don't carry these lipsticks round in my bag as they can get quite affected by warm temperatures. I have Geradium and Babette. I love wearing Geradium on special occasions as it is such a gorgeous bright colour. I was worried Babette would wash me out as most nudes do as I am very fair, however the peach tones seem to work for me so i'm excited I finally have a nude colour that suits me. I do wish this lipstick was easier to apply. The lips need a lot of prep work as it is such a thick lipstick formula so you need a smooth base. I do find the colour to be quite long lasting even when eating/drinking. I try and put one thin layer on that really sinks into my lips and then another thicker coat of the lipstick on top to get the best application.

Tips: Using a scrub on your lips and a lip balm before applying this lipstick is a must if you want it to look as nice as possible.

In Love

i find with the Lime Crime lipsticks they are quite hydrating and long lasting, with rich pigmented colours. No running or smudging and comes with the cutest container. And the one thing that will keep me buying Lime Crime products for years to come is that they are Vegan and cruelty free which is FANTASTIC!

Tips: A little goes a long way!

Gone loopy for lime crime!

I always thought that this brand would be another that didnt live up to its hype, I was hesitant about trying them as im a proud stinge and these were out of my price range, But after seeing one of my good friends wearing coquette i bit the bullet and bought Glamour 101 which has to be the most flattering red i have ever owned.

After that i was hooked, I now own Poisonberry and Babette and Geradium and will be purchasing more in the near future because i love them!

I love the purple tampon packaging, they really stand out in my acrylic holders and i find myself reaching for them all the time.

The vanilla essence scent they have is a little strong and sometimes in the mornings i find it to be TOO strong but its not a problem. eventually you cant even smell it anymore.

Some of the colours are more drying and some are quite creamy, for example babette and geradium i find to be creamy, but glamour 101 and poisonberry are creamy then they dry, i guess this is so they stay on longer and yes the lasting power is really great. Poisonberry is quite a bunchy lippie though, just a heads up.

My one big problem with limecrime lippies is the misleading swatches online, Colours always look lighter, darker, pinkier, richer and sometimes more pastel than they are in real life. the colour is still very similar but maybe not quite what you were expecting I suggest googling swatches before you purchase.
