Lime Crime and Girls Inc. Are Giving Us an Empowering Reason to Buy Lipstick
As POPSUGAR editors, we independently select and write about stuff we love and think you'll like too. If you buy a product we have recommended, we may receive affiliate commission, which in turn supports our work.
Lime Crime's matte liquid lipsticks, Velvetines, have garnered a massive cult following over the past few years for their rose-petal-like finish, intense pigment, and longwear formula. But now fans have an even better reason to pick up more shades: shopping will give back to a good cause.
For the entire month of April, 20 percent of the proceeds of your purchase of Lime Crime's Girls, Girls, Girls bundle — or individual tubes within that set — will be donated to Girls Inc. of Greater Los Angeles. This nonprofit organization provides girls from low-income schools in the LA area with support, including education-enrichment programs.
There are five specific shades from the Velvetine range that qualify: Lulu, Elle, Cindy, Sasha, and Gigi. They're all trend-forward neutral hues, including dusty mauve and apricot. Keep reading to get a closer look at the colors, including swatches of them on multiple skin tones.
