LIME CRIME PINK VELVET

Lime Crime's products are all from US and it is vegan and cruelty-free! Thumbs up for that. Lime Crime's Velvetine Collection is a lipstick that goes totally matte after you've applied it. There's the Suedeberry, Red Velvet and Pink Velvet and not to mention with the new launched Wicked Collection which consists of three warm dark tone like Black Velvet, Salem (a brown chocolate colour) and Wicked (a dark burgundy red).

First, you apply it like a lip gloss and wait for a few seconds for it to turn matte. I got this earlier this year at $30 which included the shipping price. I asked someone to order it for me because at the moment, I have no MasterCard or Paypal and I loved the fact that the shipping was fast and I received it in within a week. 

Lime Crime is one of my favourite lipstick brand right now. Not to mention, the colour is perfect for any occasions, be it for casual, formal or even informal events. This lipstick is long-lasting and it does not smudge. Let me repeat. It does not smudge. That's the thing I like about the Velvetine Collection. Admit it. Who likes it when your lipstick becomes a face paint right after you've eaten a scrumptious meal? No one. Right, this lipstick is perfect for you. The only way to remove this lipstick is by using a makeup remover to wipe it all off. The texture is smooth so not to worry, the liquid will glide along your lips easily. With one coat, the colour goes totally opaque. How can I not love that? And, yes there're three ways to wear this. You can use a lip brush for a detailed clean look, your fingers for a light matte look and straight from the tube itself for a complete matte look. Try it!

But, here's the cons. Before applying it, make sure your lips are smooth. No chapped or dry lips because this lipstick will show all those ugly sides of it after you've applied it. I've been through that and it was not good, trust me. Make sure you have your lips exfoliated to remove all those dry and chapped skin. I'll have some DIY post on that soon. But, if you need a simple exfoliating tip, use a toothbrush. It works!

Honestly, this lipstick is a need for every girl, trust me. It goes well with warm and cool tones. It is a must have in every girl's makeup collection. I can't wait to have the whole collection in hands. There are opaque lipstick collections too. You can get it from http://www.limecrime.com and they do ship internationally. Check them out!

Love, Delilah.
