Im going on an Airplane ✈ ✈ ✈ ✈ ✈ ✈ ✈


Well I guess the title should be I went on an airplane :) So let me tell you the coarse of events that occurred on Saturday the day I got on the plane! First get up eat breakfast and get ready. I did my hair which consists of straightening it very carefully, and pulling it over to the side ( Miss cool whip)And then I did my makeup and what not, got dressed and drove with my Parents to the airport. The line to check your bag in was crazy!! So we were in line and in front of us were Italians with, I kid you not, 20 suitcases.... for five people. That took forever, and then my mom and I went through security and I was wearing a baggy jacket so I got a pat down, fun. Then we got something to eat for lunch, and went to go to the terminal. The airline screwed up the terminal number but my mom figured it out. Here is the amazing part. So we go to sit in the terminal seats and In front of us I noticed to guys looking at me. One had Uber blonde hair with blue eyes, and the other older one had brown hair and blue eyes ( both really tall). So I go to board the plane, and was kind of sad I wasn't going to see them ever again, but when I boarded the plane I sat by the window in the row of chairs with three seats and next to them were rows of two. I was the happiest person when I saw them sit in those two seats, even though I was furthest away in my seat from them. Anyway one of them brought a big suitcase to carry on and it was too big so they had to check it, when the attendant asked where their final destination was they said in an adorable german accent " Munich, Germany". I think my heart stopped! I am probably like 30% German, and I was sooo excited! So the older one kept staring at me because he was closest to me than the blonde, and they were talking in German the whole flight!! So when It was time to get off at Atlanta International Airport they were getting off, and they both were staring at me because everyone in the isle ( which they were in) was preparing to get off they said something about my shirt ( I am pretty sure at least because I was wearing a Twilight shirt {Nerd} and I heard them say clear as day Twilight) and they looked at me smiled and said something in german about how pretty I was!!! I MISS MY TWO GERMANS SO MUCH :( I think they came from South Africa in honor of the world Cup. I miss them and will never forget that they made my flying experience a great one * Sigh*. After that the flight went to poo... so don't ask.
Anyways here is what I wore to attract two German

Lime Crime Review: Magic Dusts

LIME CRIME:
So bright, It's illegal
"Lime Crime creates the most intensely pigmented, premierdare-to-wear cosmetics with unmatched color payoff and saturation to create looks as vivid, quirky, and unique as our customers. Distinct colorful packaging adorned with a silver unicorn - our mascot - makes every application a fantastical event." ~ Lime Crime Website


Wow, is all I cans say! I ordered my Magic Dusts when Lime Crime was coming up on what would be the "Height" of their Business, right before they started to sell their famous Lipsticks. I am kind of sad that they Discontinued their Face products and glitters, but I am hoping for great and way better things from them since they are getting to be such a big company.As you will se below I ordered the Magic Dusts in Empress, Cleopatra, Mermaid, And their most famous color, Lime Criminal.

Some Pros & Cons with the Magic Dusts:

PROS:
Adorable Packaging
Beautiful Colors
Pigmented when used wet or with a base
Tons of product
Doesn't Smudge, or wear off

CONS:
somewhat pricey
Not very pigmented when used alone


This is what the Packaging looks like, Isn't it cute?!!
Swatches Above from Bottom to top
DRY WITH PRIMER, DRY, WET

Empress From Lime Crime is a beautiful Purple that has a blue sheen, as seen in the dry swatch with primer, and when wet this color turns into a true Royal Purple Color. It is great on brown eyes, and Since I have blue eyes It brought of the blue in my eye because of the sheen.
( For each magic dust you buy, It includes a little story, so here is Empresses)
"Show it to her at once!" excitedly squealed the emperor, gesticulating with his pudgy hands wildly. His wife refused to leave the palace for days - unless presented with a gift of such beauty, her 'legs would carry her out themselves'. The Empress had already turned down myrrh, a necklace of rubies and sapphires, and a singing bird with feathers of pure gold. But a silk mantle of brilliant purple, the Emperor knew, would please even the pickiest Empress' fancy."

Cleopatra from Lime crime would probably be my favorite color out of the four because it makes my eyes look amazing!! I would say the color is a amber/ Copper/ Orange color, with flecks of gorgeous gold sparkles. When wet this color is BEAUTIFUL!! I always get complements when I wear this, good job Lime crime!
(Story)
"Eighteen year old Cleopatra is banished from Egypt. To sneak back into her castle, she devises a brilliant plan. She is rolled inside a golden rug - a supposed gift for visiting Caesar - and smuggled inside by her faithful servant. Once in Caesar's quarters, servant unrolls the rug to reveal the stunning Cleopatra. Caesar is impressed; not only is Cleopatra bold and cunning, but also undeniably beautiful - much more so than the rug she arrived in. By morning, Caesar pronounces Cleopatra the Queen of Egypt, and the couple begins their scandalous affair which will change history forever."

DRY WITH PRIMER, DRY, WET

Mermaid from Lime Crime is a color that you will literally just stare at your hand for hours admiring how pretty this color is!! I love this color because I am a sucker for a good teal/ Turquoise color. I would describe this color as a a bright Turquoise color with silver sparkles in it. I would definitely say this color is the most pigmented dry with nothing underneath, or mixed in with the pigment.
(Story)
"The mermaid lived in a creek behind the levee. Each night, when the village lights languished and people were fast asleep, she climbed on top a big rock and sang songs of faeries and unicorns, moonlight dancing on her shiny, green tail."

DRY WITH PRIMER, DRY, WET


Lime Criminal, the infamous color that was named after the company. This is basically a true bright lime green color with a slight golden/ Yellow sheen. When I think of this I instantly think a fabulous lime green criminal robbing a bank and making out with tons of gold loot, which I think explains the color. I don't know, just my way brains way of explaining a color :) I like this color, doesn't absolutely tickle my fancy, but I don't despise it.
( Story)

LIMErick:

A colorful girl from the city
Who wished to be ever so pretty
Wore her makeup so bright,
Lock her up you just might,
That colorful girl from the city!


Overall I would definitely recommend Lime Crime to anyone who Loves color, or even is more reserved because the pigmentation wether used wet, dry, or with primer could fit anyones liking of saturation of color. They also are mostly Vegan (ones shown are vegan) and they do not test on animals.
Magic dusts are available at Limecrimemakeup.com for 12$
