Lime Crime Velvetines

I own all 6 Limecrime Velvetines, Its like a Collective Obsession ! I want to collect them all Haha. The reason why I love Velvetines , is because of the color pay off (its a liquid and drys to a lipstick ) its not sheer its very opaque & delivers full color. I love that it has a Matte Velvet finish, Its super long wearing I can eat drink kiss (lol) and its still there! & Most Importantly it doesnt make your Lips dry! of course it would feel dry because it is a "MATTE" Lipstick but it doesnt SUCK the moisture out of your lips <3

i love Lime Crime, so a week ago i decided to get the Velvetine Wicked and i love it :) quite dark but gorgeous, got so many comments on it. I hope they bring out more soft colours as theyre all quite bold (which i love but a soft colour would be nice); but overall amazing product :)

So i got black velvet to wear for my special birthday night. I ordered it from beautybliss and it was $34.50 including overnight shipping which was great.

It was my first ever black lippy and i wanted it for a special event so i thought i should get something of great quality. Expecting it to look fabulous and flawless throughout the night. Even through eating and drinking as i had heard about in reviews. The brand is extremely well known and reputable so i thought i couldn't go wrong.

Firstly i do love the packaging. Its very cute and eye catching. The applicator wasnt very good for the kind of formula it is. It was quiet difficult to apply and being black you cant really afford a little mistake. I practiced a few times before the big night but still found it was difficult to perfect.

The color intensity is AMAZING i was very impressed. Its extremely opaque and as black as possible. One application was enough to achieve perfect coverage. The formula is very thin and liquidy when you apply. It dries to a very very matte finish, which is what i like.

So i went out for dinner. As i was eating and drinking i started to notice it wearing away in the center of my lips. I thought that wasnt too bad and to be expected. However when i tried to re-apply over the top it felt really gross and weird. Like it was caked on and kind of crusty.

Throughout the night it got much worse. It ended up flaking everywhere the more i applied/touched up. It just would not settle on my lips properly. It looked so terrible and i was so disapointed. I ended up just accepting that it looked bad and went on with my night.

By the way i did exfoliate and my prime my lips in preparation for this. Unfortunately that didn't help.

I expected a lot more from this product considering its reputation and price! Needless to say i will not be purchasing any more velvetines. Unfortunately they are not for me

Loved this, borrowed my friends to go to town last weekend. It stayed on alll night! was so easy to apply as its liquid glossy as it goes on. I would totally recommend this and went out and brought my own as its so good.

Limecrime velvetines are my holy grail! I got pink velvet for my birthday and now I am a proud owner of salem, black, red and wicked! It's a perfect long wear lippy that doesn't require reapplying every hour!

These are my favourite lipsticks ever! They're so unique. Firstly the package (as everyone says) is amazing! So detailed and cute. The product itself is soooo pigmented, more than any other lipstick I own! And this is in a lipgloss form. I do find that it is quite drying and begins to show the cracks in your lips after a while if they are dry. There are such amazing colours, slightly limited but there are new ones always coming out! These last for so long, as in hours without budge! They leave a stain on your lips too as they wear away which is cool, if you're eating definitley bring the lipstick with you, as it wears away in the middle. These lipsticks smell amazing! And are super easy to apply. Would definitley reccommend to everyone for a reasonable price& something different to add to your collection! :) such a velvety smooth texture that looks great on anyone! Can't wait to get some More

This is the first time I've ever used limecrime liquid lipsticks before and it's not going to be the last because they are incredible.

Moonstone is a pastel purple shade very lilac. A light weight formula and non drying but has incredible staying power.

This formula is so smooth it makes the application very easy! However with it being such a light shade it does require a couple of coats to get a even coverage without it looking streaky.

I noticed no transfer what so ever which is amazing. It stays on through eating and drinking. I'd like to point out taking it off = Misson! It's so hard to get off I tried a makeup cleanser oil and a balm to get it off, while majority of it came off I had to get a flannel onto the lips to give them a decent scrub to remove this shade entirely.

If you are looking for a matte liquid lipstick that has incredible staying power and a non drying formula you need to look into these! Limecrime have some really unique and beautiful shades.

I love Lime Crime, the packaging is beautiful and palyful and the colours are uniquie. This would be getting a 5/5 but I found that my red velvet was a diffrent formula to my wicked and pink velvet as it didnt last as long and smudged/bleed more then the others. Over all the staying power is great, theyre vegan and pretty! whats no to love PLUS theyre relativly cheap ( I paid $25 off facebook new)

I had heard a lot of things about Lime Crime, and had ventured onto sites that sold it several times. Then all the nonsense with the company went down and I had no interest in giving them my money anymore. Luckily I have awesome friends, and one gifted me the shade Wicked. I didn't realize until I owned this that I can rock a red lip. Preferably dark, but I rock it. And well. So I was pretty excited to try this! It comes in a frosted plastic tube with a red lid covered in flowers, and it's pretty girly. It has a doe foot applicator which is quite small and easy to use.

The color, daannnngg. It's a glorious dark red with possibly a blue undertone - which is perfect for me as I think it compliments my skin tone. The formula is quite thick as well, one coat is enough but I almost always do two.

Recently I used a lip scrub before I used this - wow, talk about drying. I won't do it again in a hurry! I almost always use a lip balm underneath this when I wear it to make it slightly more comfortable and easier to apply, but usually I don't notice it on my lips. Lasting power leaves a lot to be desired, and it transfers quite easily as well (always gets on my chin!!)

I have to say, since using Jeffree Star, this formula is a lot more drying than I thought. I will still use it however, but I know in my heart I won't buy it again or give Lime Crime any of my money.
