Lime Crime Velvetines

I finally made the decision to buy a Lime Crime velvetine in wicked, i was amazed at how it did not dry my lips out at all as some other long wearing brands have done, and how well it lasted, I went with my husband to a 5 coarse dinner and did not have to reapply at all, not once, i drank and ate my way through the evening and still had the perfect pout.

These stay on all day and all night! Matte finish, and are almost a struggle to take off! Fabulous pigmentation and colours!

Absolutely love lime crime products!!!! It's such long lasting an the color holds amazing!!! I would recommend this to anyone an also can't wait to try out some of the brighter colors

This lip stain is amazing. It claims to dry matte and to be long wearing. First of all the packaging is pretty and the doe-foot applicator is easy to use and gives a nice finish. Although I did have to slightly wipe the product off the applicator as too much will make the stain bleed before it drys matte. If it bleeds it will stain outside of your lip- which I found difficult to cover/get off without ruining my makeup. A little will go a long way. This lip stain is definitely long-lasting and touch proof as it claims! Just for reference i wore it to my ball and only had to touch up once throughout the night. I brought the colour wicked, the formulation was creamy but thin enough to feel light and glide on, then dry to a beautiful matte deep red colour. These are terribly addictive and I have since purchased more! The do retail around $30- $35 which is relatively affordable compared to MAC and in my opinion better quality due to the longevity. I would 100% refer the lime crime velvetine's to a friend, as I am sure they will love them.

I have been wanting to purchase one of these for ages and have decided to finally buy one due to the influence of many BRA's. I was debating with myself whether to get Wicked or Salem. I decided to purchase Salem due to not having a shade in my lipstick collection like this at all. I absolutely loved the packaging that this came in as it is super pretty. When I first opened up the product I was surprised with how small the applicator is due to every other product I have used similar to this has a decent sized applicator. I absolutely love this shade Salem as it is a matte brown and I find that it suits me which is great. I have found that I wouldn't usually reach for a product of this shade as I never thought that I wouldn't suit me. I absolutely love the staying power of this lip stain and I am definitely purchasing the shade Wicked next pay.

I love the valvetines range! I have four colours which I only wear on special occassions/nights out. The only reason I don't wear this during the day is because of how bold the colour is and seems a bit over the top for a daytime look. They really do dry matte and don't budge at all! Eating, drinking and kissing doesn't seem to affect it, it really clings to your lips! It can feel a bit drying but it's not that bad and I get used to the feeling. I love how vibrant the colours are, although that might be a bit scary for someone who isn't used to such a bold lip. The only reason I haven't given it a 5/5 for recommending it to a friend is because of how strong the colour is. Anther reason is that lot of product comes on the wand and because comes out a liquid, it can be difficult to apply at first. Sometimes I even wipe a little bit off.

Lime crime has always been on my must try list until I saw they were releasing the new shade Utopia, It is the most gorgeous pinky purple colour you will ever see. I just had to buy it, just to imagine a grown woman running out to her mail box every day for 2 weeks until the parcel arrived, I was that excited, you think about what it will be like until you actually get it in your hands and you try it for yourself.

The packaging is gorgeous, the box I have kept because it is so sparkly and fabulous and im not normally the type of person to keep any boxes of any sort! The velvetine was exactly as it sounds, velvety and smooth, the colour is pigmented and thick, it slides on your lips and the applicator is smaller than I thought it would be. Its a lot more precise to outline your lips and get all the corners, AND THE SMELL! Who knew a lip product could smell so good!

It is by far the best lip product I own of any sort, the packaging, the colour, the quality and the smell are all amazing. I have already planned to buy more.

I have the wicked lipstain and it's my go to whenever i go out. I absolutely love the vibrant colour and the smell, Oh. My. God. I wish they had that in a perfume! best applied after a nyx liplinner as it can feather out. The colour stays really well and it doesnt come off unless you want it to. I wore it to my school ball so i could still kiss my boyfriend and he didnt have a mark on him whatsoever!

I have tis in pink velvet i purchased it as i wanted something long lasting for going clubbing without having to reapply throughout the night whist drinking and I was not dissapointed. Firstly the packaging is so cute with the metalic looking lid. I dont think this is a colour i would personally wear day to day but defineatly one for those nights out. Its long lasting and doesnt come off! The formula is very drying so I have to use my lip scrub and moisturise before i apply. The finish is matte but if you prefer a glossy look you can always apply your favourite lipgoss over it. Im unsure how to discribe the smell but its defineatly not unpleasant.

I currently have 4 of the velvetines - Suedeberry, Pink Velvet, Wicked and Salem and I cannot wait to get my hands on Utopia and Red Velvet.

I love wearing these lipsticks to work or when I am going out somewhere where I cannot touch up my makeup. I know that whenever I wear these bad boys, they are going to look exactly the same at the end of the night as they did when I first put them on.

The velvetine that I have used most, and would have to be my favourite, quite surprisingly is Salem, which is a deep brown colour. As I am so fair, it gives me that 90s grunge vibe, without the stark harshness that black lipstick gives me.
