Limecrime Fall Lippies

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at Hampton U chapter.

We are finally in the season of infinity scarves, knee-high boots, and dark nail colors! Fall is finally here! This means its time for bold lips. Nothing screams fall like a deep lip color to go with your wardrobe. I recently bought matte lip stains called Velvetines from a makeup company called Limecrime. This is a popular makeup brand that is known for their unique colors and rich pigment quality. Although the Velvetines are a little on the pricey side ($20 per lipstick), they are the perfect buy for fall lippies. Here a three beautiful lippies you should try this fall:

“SALEM”

Every woman of color needs a deep brown lip in her makeup collection, especially in fall. This color is Limecrime’s  number one selling Velvetine. It is a rich brown color that can go perfect with any undertone-red, orange, or yellow. Salem is subtle but still makes a bold statement. 

 

“JINX”

If you’re a fan of “Smoked Purple” by MAC Cosmetics, “JINX” is the color for you. It’s a beautiful deep purple that goes great with any skin tone. The best part about it: since it doesn’t have a pink/red base to it like most purples, it goes well with the typical fall colors that we love such as olive and deep burgundy.

“WICKED”

Wicked is your average classic red lip matte color, but with a richer pigmentation. You can eat and drink and it will not come off. It adds a nice pop to any outfit and its matte finish makes it the perfect red lip!
