Lime Crime lipstick 'Great pink planet'

So i'm going to be honest with you all, the main reason I purchased this lipstick was for the packaging. A purple tube with a holographic silver unicorn on it .... need I say any more ?! The Lime Crime lipsticks are £11.50. This is between high end and drugstore price, and is well worth the money.
 From the second I saw this range in someone's IMATS haul video, i've been trying to find somewhere that I can get my hands on one of these beauties.
 By chance I found some of the Lime Crime products on www.cocktailcosmetics.co.uk. I'd just like to add that I ordered my makeup on Tuesday and it arrived on Thursday! It came in lovely packaging and the products were in perfect condition.
 The colour that I chose was 'great pink planet'. A gorgeous opaque pink with blue undertones. One swipe of this over your lips and they will be completely covered. The lipstick smells a lot like the MAC lipsticks and has a nice creamy texture.
 Below is a swatch of the lipstick. This was taken using the flash. As you can see it's a beautiful baby pink with strong pigmentation. The colour reminds me a lot of MAC's 'Saint Germain' lipstick, but in a bit of a darker pink.
 Overall I love this lipstick and I will definitely be purchasing more of these. I love the smell, texture, coverage, and the packaging looks beautiful in my lipstick collection. I think every girl should have one of these in their makeup bag.
