Lime Crime Velvetines Matte Lipstick delivers intense pigmentation with a beautiful velvety matte finish. The formula feels lightweight, dries quickly, and stays on for hours without smudging. Perfect for bold makeup looks and comfortable enough for all-day wear.

From cult favorite Lime Crime —now heartbreakingly discontinued in its makeup era—the Velvetines were ✨ the ✨ liquid lipstick for the indie crowd. If you were building the aesthetic of the hypothetical outsider it-girl she would be wearing Velvetines. Velvet shade Lana is a warm, metallic, burnished bronze that glows like antique gold at golden hour. It’s bold but surprisingly wearable—a statement shade that still feels grounded and warm. The formula goes on thin and watery, then dries down quickly to a fully opaque, velvety metallic matte. No grit, no patchiness—just smooth and intense pigment. It’s long-wearing (truly meal-proof unless you’re up against oil-heavy food), and once it sets, it sets. An oil-based remover is non-negotiable. Like all Velvetines, Lana carries that signature French vanilla “cake batter” scent which I find nostalgia-heavy and comforting. Yes, it can lean drying over very long wear (all liquid-to-mattes will do that), but compared to many metallic formulas from its era, Lana feels smoother and more comfortable than you’d expect. With the entire makeup line discontinued as the brand pivots to hair products only, Velvetines are collector items—little relics of a time when bold, transfer-proof lips ruled indie beauty. Lana isn’t just a metallic bronze. It’s burnished bronze armor for the beautifully dramatic. 4/5 #limecrime #velvetines #vegan
