At the end of March this year, I was luck enough to attend Salon Melbourne! Unlike last year, Lime Crime Australia was attending; selling all their gorgeous goodies at discounted prices! This was the perfect opportunity to finish off my Lime Crime Opaque Lipstick collection!
As you can see, Lime Crime Opaque Lipsticks come in all different colours! I absolutely adore the crazy colours they've created, as well as the more neutral safe for work colours!
Coquette, D'Lilac, Babette, Chinchilla, Great Pink Planet
The lighter colours are definitely some of my favourites. I find that the lighter colours are far easier to work with, and more creamier than others. I even broke Coquette because I was swatching too hard, so they are extra soft and sensitive! My favourite out of this set would have to be either Babette or Great Pink Planet.
Airborne Unicorn, Cosmopop, Geradium, My Beautiful Rocket, Countessa Flourescent
These colours I would describe as being more wearable whilst being more bright! Some I would say even verge on neon (I'm looking at you, Geradium) but still look gorgeous on the lips. My favourites are My Beautiful Rocket as it's the perfect orange, and Countessa Flourescent as it pleasantly surprised me as something I felt I could wear almost anywhere!
New Yolk City, Centrifuschia, Retrofuturist, Mint To Be, No She Didn't
Centrifuschia and Retrofuturist look completely normal next to the other three, but are fairly bright on the lips! New Yolk City, Mint To Be and No She Didn't aren't for the faint hearted - being some of the crazier colours included in this collection, they definitely make a statement on the lips!
Glamour 101, Poisonberry, Serpentina, Styletto
My boyfriend prefers me wearing these last four colours. He thinks that the darker colours look better on me, however I find them harder to deal with. Although they are very creamy, they are so opaque that it's super easy to make a mistake, so lip liner is a must!
Lip Swatches!
Left row: Coquette, D'Lilac, Babette, Chinchilla, My Beautiful Rocket, Countessa Flourescent, Retrofuturist, Mint To Be, Glamour 101, Serpentina
Right row: Great Pink Planet, Airborn Unicorn, Cosmopop, Geradium, Centrifuschia, New Yolk City, No She Didn't, Poisonberry, Styletto
1. Coquette, D'Lilac, Babette, Chinchilla, Great Pink Planet
2. Airborne Unicorn, Cosmopop, Geradium, My Beautiful Rocket, Countessa Flourescent
3. New Yolk City, Centrifuschia, Retrofuturist, Mint To Be, No She Didn't
4. Glamour 101, Poisonberry, Serpentina, Styletto
Each swatch was done with one swipe of each, so as you can see they are very pigmented! Out of the entire collection I actually don't have a colour that I don't like. Each of them are very versatile; even New Yolk City and No She Didn't! Despite them being very strange, they can be toned down or even mixed with other colours to create something super unique. (The same could be said for Styletto, too!)

Overall, there's not much else I can really say about Lime Crime Opaque Lipsticks. I absolutely love this collection! I'm really hoping that Lime Crime will release more colours in the future; although it seems doubtful as they are releasing more colours in their Velvetines range.
Have you tried Lime Crime before? If so, what are your thoughts? Which colour is your favourite?

Oh my goodness, your collection is amazing!!! So jealous :) They look awesome, but I probably won't wear more than half of it xD
ReplyDeleteHaha thanks Sheri! I know what you mean, some of the crazier colours aren't exactly every day wear, but they are fun for at home haha xx
DeleteI love your collection! I only have 3 so far but I definitely want more :) great post!
ReplyDeleteThank you! You should definitely grab some more, they are awesome! Which ones do you have already?
Deletexx
Wow, what a collection! I really need to try some Limecrime lipsticks. I'm not too sure I'd be able to get away with the greens, blue and yellow, but I'd love to get my hands on some of the pinks, or even purples!
ReplyDeleteHehe thanks lovely! Yeah those colours are a bit odd but I could definitely see you rocking some of the purples ;)
Deletexx
Oh my gosh, I could never be brave enough to wear some of those shades! Go you! :) x
ReplyDeleteHaha thanks Candice! Most of the crazier ones are just for play :P
Deletexx
This colorscheme has a new idea and I would must give it a try.
ReplyDeleteLove it if you follow my blog!
Gracious
flowing skirts
Thank you, you should give some a go xx
DeleteOmg, that wall of lip swatches is soooooo pretty! Haha, I reckon they look awesome. Babette looks so pretty though I don't think it would be too flattering on me. I have Centrifuchsia and quite like it though Poisonberry and Geradium look like colours I would like as well!
ReplyDeleteTasha // shiwashiful.
Haha thanks Tasha! I'm sure it would look great on you :)
Deletexx
Girl, this was cruel - so cruel. I want so many now, though I already have two beautiful colours thanks to you! x
ReplyDeleteHaha sorry Soph! :D xx
DeleteSo jealous of your collection! I haven't tried any of the Lime Crime lipsticks yet, but I'm definitely going to. Who can resist the pretty packaging <3 I can't get over how opaque the swatches are! xxx

The packaging is definitely what drew me in! I'm sure you'll love them when you try them :)

Very impressive collection and gorgeous swatches! I think I'd suit the darker colours as light lip colours wash me out, I will start with Airborne Unicorn followed by Serpentina and Countessa Flourescent and the blue one and the orange one...I want them all!
ReplyDeleteThanks so much! Haha I'm sure they'd all look great on you! xx
DeleteYOU LUCKY GIRL ♡
ReplyDeleteI've been yearning for this in the Coquette and Babette. And I'm really digging the purples, especially Chinchilla. Plus, Mint To Be.

ReplyDeleteNhi | Miss Blushaholic
Aww thanks hun! Airborne Unicorn would look amazing on you!! xx
DeleteOMG, that is some collection. And you are so brave wearing those colours, I'm too conservative and too much of a chicken for most of those colours, but they do look nice. And as always, love your lip swatches! xx
ReplyDeleteHaha thank you! Some of them are really just for fun, but I'm sure you'd look amazing in them! :) xx
DeleteAwesome collection, I don't have any of the Lime Crime lipsticks yet!
ReplyDeleteThank you! You should really pick some up, they're pretty awesome ;)

DeleteLime Crime is my fav too! I think I am half way through their lip stick collection, but never get the chance to wear all the daring colours anyway. They are a bit of fun though when I feel like dressing up. They suit your fair skin very well, thanks for the review!
ReplyDeleteThey are definitely fun to wear but you're right, I hardly get the chance to wear them! Thank you so much :) xx
DeleteWow, some of those colours are amazing! Thanks for the swatches, I wouldn't wear most of them though... not sure I could ever do a green, blue or yellow lip - they look awesome though!
ReplyDeleteThanks Loz! They do look pretty funky, but they're mostly just for fun hehe :)
Deletexx
That's a lot of lipsticks ! First time I see yellow, blue and green lipticks ! These are so fun !
ReplyDeleteThey're pretty fun, aren't they! xx
DeleteI think you have successfully made every person ever jealous! So amazing to have the entire collection! They all look beautiful on you! I can't wait to get my hand on some more :)
ReplyDeleteKate | The Minted Beauty
Hahaha, aw thank you so much Kate! <3 I can imagine you look amazing in some of the crazier colours ;)
Deletexx
I am DYING of jealousy! What a great collection!
ReplyDeleteHaha thanks lovely! xx
DeleteAwesome collection! I have only one Lime Crime lipstick that I was lucky to win from Kitsch Snitch's giveaway a while ago (Airborne Unicorn). It's great to add more purple to any berry or pink lipstick. I would love to add a few more colours to my collection but the last thing I need is more lipstick :p Thanks for the helpful lip swatches!
ReplyDeleteThanks! Airborne Unicorn is gorgeous, she picked well! I'm glad you liked it :) xx
DeleteWhat an amazing Collection. I only have airborne unicorn. I am so curious about Chinchilla, not sure I could pull it off though, maybe with a nude gloss on top. I love lime crime lipsticks.

Thank you! Airborne Unicorn is gorgeous! Chinchilla is a lot more "grey" but I think it'd look nice with a gloss on top! xx
DeleteI love the heart photo. This makes me want them all :)
