My Experience with Lime Crime Rhyme Liquid Eyeliner:

Packaging: I do love this fun and quirky packaging with the polka dot cap. You can easily spot the color of the color through the transparent tube. The brush on this eyeliner is a thin flexible wand. I find it easy to use.

Shade and Pigmentation:  This particular shade is a glitter liner, which is a clear base with lots and lots of bright gold glitter in it. The amount of opacity depends on how many layers you apply but one layer will give you about 50% opacity of glitters.

Usage:
While I wouldn’t necessarily use this to define my eyes, it is a nice versatile product to give your eyes a pop of sparkle without dealing with the mess of loose glitter. You don’t have to deal with any glitter fallout as the base makes them adhere nicely onto the skin. You could also use this to give yourself a glitter cut crease or layer this over a black base or any other shade to add an extra dimension to your look (See EOTD).

Staying Power:
Staying power of this liner is quite good. Once the liner dries, the glitter particles do not budge. They last basically the whole day till you remove it with a waterproof makeup remover.

The thing I don’t like about this product is that the shelf life is noted as 6 months and it does start to develop a funky smell post that period while the performance remains unaffected. Other than that, I am quite pleased with the quality and performance of this product and I will recommend this.

In EOTD 1, I have used “Corrupt” on the outer and inner corner or my lid over a black base – Laura Mercier Caviar eyeshadow in the shade Tuxedo and added Kat Von D Metal Crush eyeshadow in the shade “Thrasher” in the middle on the lid and topped the eyeshadow with a hint of Lime Crime Eyeliner in “Rhythm” for added sparkle. Followed the same pattern for the lower lash line. Added Ardency Inn Manuka honey eyeshadow in “Sunday” for the pale gold inner corner highlight.

In EOTD 2, I have used “Chickadee” as a transition shade deepened with “Frappe” and “cocoa bear” in the crease and “Shimma Shimma” all over the lid. I did a golden cut crease with Lime Crime Eyeliner in “Rhythm.”
