Hey Ghouls;
Today my lovely slice of Christmas Heaven arrived.
I am of course
talking about my LIME CRIME order.
This
order was from the ever so hectic Cyber Monday sale which of course saw the
website take a massive hit in traffic and put the Lime Crime team to the test.
I’m glad to say they succeeded, getting the site back up and running, allowing
extra time for the sale and of course with a little bit of help from their
facebook community keeping the fans informed while dealing with a fair few
inquiries, not all of them completely necessary.
I’m telling you, if it had of been an in store sale there
would’ve been blood.
The delivery time was amazing even battling the Christmas
rush. I ordered Cyber Monday and received confirmation that my order had been
shipped on the 3rd of December. It arrived today (20th of
December) and for those of us in Australia we know that this is seriously fast.
I will mention that I purchased some nail polishes off Ebay which were shipped
from America on the first and still haven’t arrived.
As usual the products were shipping in the lovely
uni-shipper which, if you don’t know what it looks like you can view my previous
review of the Lip Noir collection and Retrofuturistic here; where I go into
more depth about the packaging and so on.

Onto the order itself.
The Carousel glosses are packaged in a beautiful hexagon
purple box which features metallic panels and white striped poles just looking
at this packaging makes me remember the good old gold poles that hold your
carousel horse in place. There is also quite an elegant touch with what I imagine
are pearls around the top and bottom of the box. This I feel makes the product
more serious and less like child’s play makeup while still retaining its
joyfulness. Of course inside the box is the lime green colour we all adore.
The lip-glosses are bottled in elegant twirled plastic that
forms a flower if looked at from the bottom, the lid is the same metallic purple
with white and lavender decore and the unicorn logo embossed on the top. All my
lip-glosses seal extremely well which is a big point for me after having so
many expensive glosses leak in my bag. Another big point for me is instead of
the doe-foot applicator that so many of my other glosses have Lime Crime have decided
on a brush.

The consistency is thick; however I wouldn’t expect anything
less when you have such coverage of colour. I did not want to waste any of the
product by doing swatches on my hand so I’ve gone straight for the lips. This
first image shows you the natural colouring of my lips, please note that I am
very pale and I’ve found most colours tend to ‘pop’ on my essentially white
complexion. All the names are inspired by and bring about that carnival feel. All of them also have a wonderful Vanilla scent to them, i honestly feel like eating them it's that good.

Kaleidoscope – A beautiful cool tonned purple. With duo chrome blue in the tube and blue sparkles in the sunlight on the lips. This purples is amazing!! Especially with my pale skin, goes on a treat then again they all have so far. This color is extremely elegant and not too dark as to be seen as gothy (not that that is a problem in my case)

Golden Ticket – A beautiful golden color, it might be close to 24 carot this is a hard color to properly swatch on bare lips because artificial flash from my camera picks up a lot of the pink from my lips.
All swatches are straight on my natural lips, i can't wait to try a few of these with concealed lips.
These lipglosses are the perfect thing to top off a Christmas holiday or in my case even an everyday look. I can't wait to wear these out and about. You don't use much product at all, but as i mentioned before you need to apply it thick to get such a bright color however the does not make your lips sticky, in fact these are not sticky at all. So worth the $17.00 for 0.12 fluid ounces, these will last me a very long time.
LIPSTICK
The lipsticks are packaged as per the norm; again please view
my previous review for a more in depth description of packaging. However one of
my boxes is now Lavender on the inside, this is really sending me OCD nuts. :P

and No she didn’t, which is a sky blue.
I find the formula of the lipsticks is exactly the same as
the previous ones I’ve purchased.
Note: During my entire blog i've been eating an apple and i would like it to be clear that although the lipstick did transfer to the apple it remained on my lips :3 Thus these lipsticks withstand the eating test!
I purchased these products by myself for myself as a Christmas Present. These opinions are NOT paid for.
Until Next time remember it's your imperfections that make you unforgettable.
