Lime Crime Velvetines

I didn't purchase my lime Crime from the official Lime Crime website. I got them new from Trademe and they swore they weren't fakes and were authentic time crimes. However I'm not sure because I did t find the quality all that great. The lipstick went quite flakey and cracked and the colour smeared quite a bit. I wasn't pleased with the result however I must try ordering from the the lime Crime website and compare the quality as they may have been in fact fakes.

This is the perfect blue based red, it's a bit drying but I love matte lipstick and it lasts all day. It doesn't last through meals very well though, but it's the longest lasting lipstick I've ever used. I haven't found a pale pink that would be nice In this range though

I bought this after being recommended it by a friend and it quickly became my favourite! It went on beautifully with high pigment, was long wearing and didn't smudge! I ended up buying many different colours so I'd have one to go with everything!

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

These are super pigmented! I have this in three colours, they literally last all day and night. They can be drying so i apply a thin coat of lip balm throughout the day. They have a nice sweet smell that dosent linger too long, they are easy to apply and have a smooth texture. Pricey but the quality makes it worth it. Easy applicator to use. Always have one in my bag, on my shelf and in storage. Love these!

My favourite item in my makeup bag! It doesn't move, and is super smooth to apply. I find I dont need to lip line as it doesn't seem to bleed on me and requires minimal re applications. As my tubes run out, I mix them with a bit of plain lip balm and they make a nice lip stain

This one of my absolute favourites for liquid lipsticks I probably own around thirty different colours. They last almost all day and come in such a fun range of colours.

Additionally they don’t require a lipliner and are super full coverage. Lime Crime also regularly does sales on their velvetines.

The only negative is that they only have 2.6ml worth of product compared to a Kat Von D one or a Jeffree Star which has 6.6ml and 5.6ml of product respectively

I LOVE this product! Goes on liquidy and dries matte. I have this in Red Velvet. I wore it to a wedding reception and throughout the reception I ate and drank and it lasted about 8 hours with only one touch up. I didn't use a liner with this and it wasn't too drying on my lips either. The colour payoff is amazing! Definately recommended if you don't want to keep touching up throughout the day/night. The only downfall is they only have 3 colours. Can't wait until Lime Crime release more colours - I'll definately be buying more!!

After purchasing and using suedeberry I am going to have to get the rest of the velvetiness, there is nothing else as nice as them on the market. They glide on so smooth, without bleeding at the edges of the lips, one coat is ample enough to give an even coverage. The colour of suedeberry is a little on the orange side of red, but it really brightens up your smile. Its kiss proof but not quite eating and drinking proof but otherwise it stays on a long time.

I absolutely love Lime Crime makeup and especially their range of Velvetines. Red velvet for me is the perfect matte red and does not come off. AT ALL. I have worn it all day, showered and it is still on, and it only just comes off with make up remover. If you want a liquid lip stain/liquid lipstick that stays put then this is definitely it. It also comes in very cute packaging. Only one problem with these is that they aren't readily available to us New Zealanders and when they are, they sell out really quick. Definitely a 5/5 for all. Great product not to mention they're cruelty free and vegan!
