Lime Crime Velvetine Lip Colour* is the perfect lip colour for your Valentines Day date night, I am in LOVE with this beautiful velvet matte finish tube of pink gorgeousness.
The formula is like a gloss and it's completely liquid whilst you apply it, within a few moments as if by magic it turns to a beautiful matte finish, without feeling heavy. It really will hold up whilst you eat and drink, even smooch this Valentines Day, the formula is waterproof, smudge proof and wont budge, I think I've finally found a lip product that I wont need to keep applying.
I usually find with matte finish lip sticks and products that they are really drying on the lips, I think they have to suck the moisture away so that the product stays on, whilst you can feel Velvetine is really matte its not uncomfortable and because it applies in a liquid format there is no pulling or dragging during application.
This will be an amazing colour to wear all year round, brighten your lips especially during this dull weather.
I know some of you are scared to wear really bright and bold colours, but don't be it's just about knowing what suits you, If you have fair skin, orange-reds are going to pop quite a bit more as brighter colours are more noticeable on paler skin. This doesn't mean if you have pale skin, you can’t make it work- it just means, it’s going to pop more. Darker skin beauties have an easier time pulling off the orange-reds since dark skin can handle brighter colours, there’s less of a contrast.
So next time your debating whether to buy the bright lippie or not, go for it.
Lime Crime Cosmetics are available in the UK exclusively through Cocktail Cosmetics the Velvetine Lip Colours are priced at £13.50 each.

I adore the lilac unicorn packaging, you know at first glance that this is Lime Crime, and the bold packaging really represents the brand.

| Retrofuturist A gorgeous berry red shade, as good as it looks alone you could layer on some lipgloss to add a hint of shimmer and shine to give it more depth. I think this will be a really nice winter colour, especially against pale skin and neutral eye make up. £11.50 direct from Cocktail Cosmetics. |

Glamour 101 A very bold & sexy red hue. This one looks so bright and out there but actually on the lips it's stunning.
I wouldn't layer any lipgloss over this one personally as I love the deep letterbox red.
It's a known fact that red lippie will make your teeth look whiter too, bonus!

Of the 2 shades I love the Glamour 101 and as I am trying to be a lot braver with colour this year I will be wearing this one a lot, next on my list is the beautiful Geradium shade, a barbie esque pink (definitely a Miss Minaj)
