BEAUTY // Lime Crime 'Great Pink Planet'
















Super pale blue-tinted pink with a light candy-pop, this lipstick has an ultra creamy texture.

Although it's very creamy, I find this doesn't lead to an even coat. However, I applied direct from the tube (with no brush) and did not use primer, both of which might lead to smoother results!

As an opaque lipstick, the finish is essentially matte but with a strong shine.

It wears really well. Although it only lasts a few hours before needing a top up, it fades completely evenly, which is important in such a candid shade.

The pigment is very crisp, very light, very pale, adventurous and delicate, it gives a reverse-gothic finish. 

It's a great shade to use as a mixer with other lipsticks to create a more pastel pigment.

Have a look at Leanne Lim Walker's review of Airborn Unicorn (the infamous purple that took the bloggosphere by storm) and Red Velvet.

Aside from the lipstick, I'm wearing my Daily Get Together make up in these photos.

Is any one else interested in out-of-the box pigments?! Send 'em my way!
