Products sent for consideration. All opinions are my own. I am judging this product the way I would any other product of its type. This is my first time using Lime Crime products. I have had very strong negative feelings about the brand but after watching the brand come out with new products and attempt to turn their image around, I decided to give them another chance. Happy Friday! I’m on vacation to celebrate my grandmother’s 90th Birthday but I wanted to share this bright manicure with you while I’m away.

This is my first time using Lime Crime products. I have had very strong negative feelings about the brand but after watching the brand come out with new products and attempt to turn their image around, I decided to give them another chance.
Happy Friday! I’m on vacation to celebrate my grandmother’s 90th Birthday but I wanted to share this bright manicure with you while I’m away. This was a simple, alternating color, citrus inspired manicure. I used Limecrime Peaches ♥ Cream (neon peach) and Pastelchio (neon lime green). Peaches ♥ Cream reminds me of a cantaloupe!
Considering that I did not have my manicure kit with me on my trip, I liked how these nails turned out. People seem really drawn to Pastelchio and I’ve had a lot of compliments on the colors.
Really, if you want to make a simple manicure exciting, paint your nails in alternating colors like above. Then stripe the opposite color down the center of the nail for a ‘beach ball stripe’ effect.
For these two colors, the polish formula itself was easy for me to work with. I had almost full opacity in one coat (I tend to err on the side of thick coats vs. thin), but I still did a second coat. The polish did not pool towards my cuticles. On their own, the polishes dry to what I could call a satiny finish as opposed to a shiny finish. I used a top coat for extra shine. To me they really do seem like neon pastel shades.
These are the first Limecrime products that I have ever tried and I do like the formula. I was pleasantly surprised by how nice they are. I think if you’re looking for some pastel neons, these colors fit the bill. Both are unique in my extensive nail polish collection. Pastelchio and Peaches ♥ Cream debuted with the Les Desserts d’Antoinette Nail Polish Collection from 2012.
