This review is on Lime Crime Lipstick in the shade Serpentina, I purchased this when it first came out in the Alchemy Collection, the collection is no longer available to purchase but you can still purchase Serpentina separately.

I will also have a review of a few more Lime Crime Lipsticks coming up in the shades Poisonberry, Babette, and Geradium.

Anyway onto the photos!

My Rating:  10 out of 10 Feathers

Cost:  $18.00 for 0.12 oz

Availability:  www.limecrime.com

Formula:  Metallic Finish.

The Packaging:  Round shaped lipstick tube twist up.

My Final Thoughts:  I bought this first and foremost out of curiosity to see if it really was as true to the swatches they posted. Once I received it I couldn't stop staring at it, it was gorgeous in the packaging and just as beautiful after I swatched it.

Serpentina is described on their site as a Metallic Green and omg is it ever true to that and then some. It's got a beautiful shift of almost sparkles of blue and light green as well. It didn't make my lips dry at all and it went on creamy and pigmented! 

I LOVE this lipstick shade, I love the packaging as well then again I'm all about unicorns and any mythical horse really so I guess I'm a tad biased there!

I found this lipstick has a smell that is similar to MAC lipsticks, it's sort of a vanilla scent that is not overly strong and you really can't smell much once on the lips. 

Would I purchase again?  Absolutely, YES! This lipstick is pigmented, creamy, unique, and the smell is really pleasant! The price is higher than most but you're also getting a gorgeous shade that is really great quality.

Do you own Serpentina? What are you thoughts?
