More Lime Crime reviews and a giveaway! Items from Lime Crime are tucked in a dotted blue box and lime green paper to match Lime Crime's aesthetics. I can't help but to feel joyful when I look at how the items are presented. Mad love!
Magic Dust Eyeshadow
Abracadabra is a pink eyeshadow with subtle blue overtones. It is silky smooth, easy to use and blends like a dream. Only the tiniest amount is needed, it is fairly pigmented plus too much pink will make your eyes look swollen.
I swatched Abracadabra dry and then over Urban Decay Primer Potion, NYX Jumbo Eyeshadow Pencil 608 Cottage Cheese, Canmake Shimmer Jelly Eyes 02 Sugar Milk Tea and Tsuya Tsuya Gel Eyeliner Cedar Brown (from left to right).
Even though it isn't lacking pigmentation wise, I'd still use Abracadabra over a base. They just make the colour more vibrant and they even bring out the blue undertones as shown in the swatches.
I'd imagine Abracadabra working very well as a blush.. I'll try it out and let you guys know what I think!
The full ingredient list for Magic Dust Eyeshadow Abracadabra:
Mica, Calcium Aluminium Borosilicate, Caprylic/ Capric Triglyceride, Silica, Tin Oxide, Aluminum Oxide Phenoxyethanol, Caprylyl Glycol Ethylhexyglycerin, Hexylene Glycol. May contain: Titanium Dioxide (CI 77891), Iron Oxides (CI 77491, CI 77492, CI 77499), Chromium Oxide Green, Ferric Ferrocyanide, Blue 1, Yellow 5, Ultramarines.
Candyfuture Opaque Lipstick
Retrofuturist is a deep ruby red. It has a hint of blue and this helps to brighten my complexion as well as my pearly whites hahaha ♥
I reviewed a few colours from this range back in July 2010.. my thoughts on the texture, pigmentation etc still stands so please hop over to this post if you're interested to have a look.
Lime Crime is adding three colours to the Candyfuture Opaque Lipstick range on March 15th - Mint To Be, Coquette and New Yolk City. Aren't they gorgeous?

They're so pretty! I'd love to try their products in the future :) I always hear about their lipsticks and how pigmented they are
The red lipstick looks so good on you.
I thought Lime Crime was a MAC collection! : O

btw there's a button on the google form (when you go to the 'spreadsheet' and view the responses). There's an option called 'stop receiving responses' and that's how you stop people from entering after the deadline has passed. Of course I'll also remove the form in html format from my post too. hope this helps!!

I have heard really good things about these lipsticks a long time ago. Very nice packaging^0^~
Abracadabra is such a great word...and great product name. It implies that it works magic, which I guess is a good association for make-up. You don't need magic. =)
limecrime makeup seems amazing and pigmented :D it's pretty cool with all the different colour lipsticks. I think their funkier shades are cool to look at but not something I can wear daily. Those red lips look beautiful!
That red looks great on you! I wouldn't have thought a blue tinged red would look good on Asian skin tones.
Wow, awesome =O
Enter me, please =)

The packaging on these lipsticks are so cute! Wearing the black gloss alone is sort of scary looking lol unless you are going for the Goth look
