About two weeks ago, Lime Crime decided that in honour of reaching 55,000 fans, they would have a 24 hour flash sale on all eyeshadows. So of course, I jumped at the opportunity and bought my very first Lime Crime eyeshaodws.
I have only ever tried one other Lime Crime product, their red lipstick - Retrofuturist. Such a gorgeous red lipstick that I think would suit most, if not all, skin tones! I adore it. So I figured, well why not give the eyeshadows a go (I own a stupid amount of eyeshadows and thought I needed to add to the collection haha).
I was so impressed by the shipping also. I ordered and expected it to take at least two weeks to get to Australia - guess again, just over a week and it was sitting on my door step. I was over the moon..yeah, I squealed through the house excitedly haha.
The colours I chose to buy were -
Lime Criminal - a gorgeous bright green.
Cupcake Thief - it's a very soft pale pink, beautiful on it's own or as a base.
Empress - a deep, yet vibrant purple.
Troubadour - a bright turquoise, so beautiful.
Abracadabra - an amazingly bright pink.
Diva - a metallic bronze, every kit needs this colour.
I am a massive fan of impractical, bright colours that most people wouldn't wear every day - and too be honest, I don't exactly wear these kind of colours every day. Most of the time, you will see me with mascara, blush, either a lipstick or some lip balm and winged eyeliner if you are lucky. But I think it's always nice to have brights on hand hehe.
Lime Crime eyeshadows are packaged in the most adorable little jar - clear with a dark purple lid, complete with a silver unicorn. Adorable!
Here are some swatches of the eyeshadows (I used Too Faced Shadow Insurance as a primer on my hand first)

As you can see in the above pictures, the pigments on the eyeshadows are insane! So bright and fun! I just love them!
The colours are so easy to apply. I just love them all. I don't even know how much I can tell you that I love these!
So there's a look at some of the adorable Lime Crime Magic Dusts. I highly reccomend them!
