PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

Say goodbye to sliding, fading and sheer-ness with our best-selling opaque lipsticks. Recklessly loaded with pigment for maximum impact, these beauties offer unparalleled coverage in a rainbow of statement-making shades. Creme formula is smooth, non-drying and lasts for hours. Each lipstick comes encased in the signature purple tube adorned with a sparkling unicorn.

TIPS & TRICKS

Apply directly from the tube or with a brush. Due to high pigment load and creamy texture, these lipsticks are softer and more delicate than others, please keep them away from heat and be gentle when applying.

H I T S :

• INSTENSE color pay-off.
• Less touch-ups needed as they last on your lips for a good 4-6 hrs.
• In some shades, a little swipe goes a long way.
• Super cute packaging.
• They ship worldwide.

M I S S E S :

• If you will buy directly from the website, this is a bit expensive than MAC Lipsticks($15). 
• Packaging is a bit bulky looking.
• If you wan to apply a different lipstick within the day, this may require makeup remover as various shades really stain.

Each lipstick retails for $15.99 from the Limecrime Website exclusive of shipping and tax duties.  And good news, they do international shipping. But if you want to get yours hassle-free, please check Starmaine Cay on Facebook. 

If you are unsure which shade will fit you, please refer to the Lime Crime Visual Lipstick Guide. 

DISCLAIMER: Yes, Starmaine Cay's owner is my one and only sister love. I won't hide this from you. This does not solely mean I am promoting her shop and products purely for business. As I am only promoting products I believe in, something that's worth writing a review for. I personally own 2 shades of these lipsticks bought with my own money. The lipsticks I reviewed are personally owned by my sister lent to me for swatching purposes. 

Love,

Anna
