The lime crime velvetines are ridiculously and incredibly long wearing! They feel rather different/dry to apply but once they are on and set it feels like you've got nothing on but with maximum colour impact and great staying power! My favourites are suedeberry - matte coral red and pink velvet - matte pink. They are definitely a matte finish product. My next colours (if I'm brave enough) will be utopia - vibrant orchid, pansy - true, rich, velvety purple and rave - (coming soon) electric lavender. I also love the idea of the other more wearable shades such as red velvet - matte rose red, riot - earthy reddish brown and wicked - matte burgundy/red. A swipe or two bottom and top should do the trick and even being liquid a tube should last a while - months if your like me and only use occasionally. These have lasted me a meal, drink and a movie in wear so they do stay put. For $35 they aren't the cheapest but I think the quality makes up for it and the fact it is something a little different. Easy to apply with gloss like applicator. All lime crime packaging is simply awesome! Recommended to any one who likes something a bit different/wants to try something new!

Tips: Apply sparingly and with caution - not easy to fix up once on! Make sure lips are well hydrated!
I love most of the Limecrime products I’ve used!
I love the Velveteens - good colouring giving a good coverage in usually just one application. I do find they can be quite drying though, so always use a good quality lip balm before application. Most colours I have used stay put, only needing a light touch up after eating or mid afternoon.
I do like the lighter colours to use as a base for the Diamond Crushers
Tips: Use a good lip balm before application
Use a lip liner - some colours I have are a little runny, and a lip liner helps stop them bleeding.
Use as a base colour for more depth when using the Diamond Crushers
Love Love Love these velventines, I am just one of those lipstick wearers that no matter what the lipstick in gone in 1.5 seconds Not with these, finally something that lasts a little longer, it is a bit drying but still makes my lips look nice.
the only thing i struggle with now is that the creator of limecrime has questionable business ethic and are not shi[[ing to suppliers in NZ at the moment and with the scare over security on the website- I will not order from there, still three that i want cashmere, wicked and suedeberry
I love this product, however this brand is controversial therefore I myself would not repurchase. The Velvetine I have tried was in the shade wicked. The formula was probably the most superior liquid lipstick I have tried, in comparison to Colourpop ultra matte or Australis velour lips. The lasting powder is beyond amazing, it stayed on for my school ball and even after eating it was still flawless. They can be tricky to apply but once applied will not let you down. The colour range is really cool and I would totally recommend to liquid lipstick lovers.
Tips: -Exfoliate lips first (try lush lip scrub) -Line lips with brush or corresponding lipliner
These were my first liquid matte lippies. This is more of a tattoo lippy. Super pigmented but really drying. However the colours available are absolutely AMAZING! Have the whole collection and find suedeberry, pink velvet and rave to be my least favourite only because the Color doesn't suit my skin tone. Other than that these are my go to lippies to add drama to my natural look. Awesome utensil to have if leaving work and going out for drinks str8 after.
Tips: These only come off with oil so if eating out, do carry wipes or be prepared to apply a brand to coat as it bleeds out and gets a tad messy. HIGHLY suggest finding a liner and lining the lips to stop the bleeding. This lippy does bleed after a certain period. VERY drying so keep lip balm on hand.
I love these and I will continue to buy them even if the company is a little shady. I do find some colours bleed a little more than others but that can be easily be fixed with a lipliner and careful application. Red Velvet and Utopia are my go to shades. They last for hours (even while eating and drinking) and even if they do fade through the day, the product semi stains your lips so you don't look super patchy. One annoying thing though is their formula can be inconsistent and vary lipstick to lipstick.
Tips: Since these are matte, they look absolutely stunning when you overdraw your lips.
These are lovely liquid to matte lippies. I have the colours Suedeberry (my personal fave), Red Velvet, Wicked, Utopia, Salem.
They apply as liquid with an easy to use applicator and dry matte. These lippies do not move all day. I usually reapply about mid day after eating but it isn't necessary. Every time im wearing one I get compliments (esp utopia, suedeberry and red velvet).
The packaging is lovely as are the colour options, I'd love to get a few more!
If I were to say anything slightly negative about the velvetines it would be that they smell a bit off? My Utopia smells so strange that I cringe when I apply it but the smell goes once dry!
Tips: I personally use a lip brush for very precise lines :)
I love these velvetines, lovely colours and pigmentation. Only thing is the price is quite steep and they dry your lips like crazy, they are definitely a product you'd use every so often (well they are for me) because having this lipstick on feels rather uncomfortable and the intensive treatments to repair your lips afterwards are too time consuming for me personally!!
Tips: make sure your lips are chapped before otherwise this lipstick wont adhere right and make sure to take care of your lips after to prevent them from being chapped, formula is rather drying :(
I looove these. The colours are so pigmented. So many great colours to choose from. I use cashmere like everyday. I'm loving them the packaging & the box it comes in so cute. I am going to do another order online very soon so keen to try out the new colours especially faded. They are very drying I always apply lip balm first. But I do still get really dry lips afterwards & end up having to use lip balm all the time
I brought this a while ago after hearing all the hype about its longevity and its matte finish. Well personally I LOVE the matte look so I spent $25 I think and brought one. BIG mistake. 1. It felt horrible to apply and I had to apply like three coats to get a decent color coverage. 2. It stung sooo bad!! 3. Was nowhere near as long wearing as advertised, in fact it smudged and rub off fairly easily for a lip stain. 4. The matte finish was not as silly as other brands I have used in the past, and it actually became very dry and crackled after about an hour. Will not be buying any more velvetines.
Tips: Don't buy
