Today I will be posting some reviews and swatches of the lipsticks
Lime Crime say... "Deep, saturated fuchsia.
This shade combines lipstick and lip stain for prolonged wear."
A colour I had been wanting to try out for a long time
I was so excited to have been able to win this! ♥
I was in no way disappointed with this lipstick
It is a really awesome shade, nice and vibrant pink apposed to being too "sweet"
Pink lipsticks are more commonly pastel shades but this is much wilder
I think it would be fair to say it's the pink equivalent of a letter box red
Score; ★★★★★
I will be wearing this a lot and 100% buying it again!

Lime Crime say... "Opaque banana-yellow"
Since I had an opportunity to try some new shades for free
I just HAD to go with one of Lime Crimes more crazy colours
They are rather well known for their yellow lipstick
I can't image that anyone else had the cojones to release such a shade before!
Whilst it is a super fun shade, it is incredibly hard to wear
I think with some epic styling there are some hot little bosses who can work it
I think with some epic styling there are some hot little bosses who can work it
But for shy folk like me, it can be a challenge!
Application wise this lipstick is very creamy compared to other Lime Crime formula's
It applied well in terms of the opacity but can drag around if you're trying to layer
So it takes a little patience and fiddling around to get it fully even
Score; ★★☆☆☆
The score just reflects me personally, over all I can't really fault the lipstick
It is just such a hard shade to pull off, so much respect for those out there who can!
I don't think I would buy this again but I am so glad I had the chance to try it out

Lime Crime say... "Bubblegum blue. Finally a blue lipstick that gives 100% coverage!
Wear alone as a statement shade, or layer over other lipsticks to cool down the tone."
Another chance I grabbed at trying out another well known crazy shade!
Blue isn't your average of lip colours, but, it works so well... or am I crazy?
I think you would still need an awesome outfit to counter the wildness
but it's still surprising wearable, so if you're up for a challenge then go for it!
Score; ★★★☆☆ (perhaps a 3.5)
I had the same 'issues' as the yellow in that the creamy texture caused dragging
But damn, this shade is insane and I am a teeny bit in love with it hehe
I will most likely repurchase this in the future once I have used it all up
