RAINBOW DUST
Lime Crime wants to put a sparkle in your eye...
We already love Lime Crime for its brighter-than-bright lipsticks, but the New York beauty company wants to make sure that your eyes shine, too.
The brand's eyeshadow collection, aptly titled "Magic Dust," contains sparkly hues like the purple-y gold "Dragon Scales," the pale pink "Cupcake Thief," and the flashy silver "Mirror Mirror."
Each of these little pots is highly pigmented, which means a little goes a long way (we attempted the soft gold "Nymph" without a mirror and ended up with Edward Cullen-esque shimmer all over our face).
But once you've mastered the art of light-handed application, you can layer the colors to make them bolder or even mix and match with crazy hues. After all, if you're going to wear Lime Crime, you better go all out.

When a magazine recommends a subpar project, I always wonder if it was a paid placement.... Nylon should realize that reputation goes a long way with readers and it's worth more than a few freebies.

Lime crime is KNOWN for repackaging wholesale pigments and marking up the price by as much as 24 times. Just google it. Don't recommend products that are low-quality- you're better than that NYLON!

I adore Lime Crime, and have many of their products. They do not repackage wholesale pigments, and it drives me nuts that the rumors are still abound. The magic dusts are of high quality and last all day, especially with their eyeshadow helper. I'm glad LC is getting recognition from such a discerning magazine!

Thanks for the recommend. I know when there is a backlash that it's a pretty good product.
