I'm pretty sure we've all heard about the good, the bad, and ugly about them. But knowing what you know, do you still buy their products?

I've been wanting to try their primer because I heard it's amazing (and TFSI is creasing on me), but I'm not sure if I agree on their business ethics. Thoughts?

I don't buy Lime Crime products.

I still buy them. I don't care about all the drama, if I like the product I'm gonna buy it. I own all the lipsticks except for Styletto. I also have their Carousel Glosses! :)

Yeah. I don't care about the hooplah around the company. Doesn't effect the products. They're cool, good products with super cute packaging! I like the style. :)

What's wrong with their business ethics?

I have a carrousel gloss and a lipstick but I don't like them too much. Too messy and no staying power.

I have two lipsticks and I LOVE them! They're great quality and they look and feel fabulous! I always get compliments when I wear them :)

ugh the thing i can't stand is the argument over good vs. bad customer service... because that's not really the major problem. they don't make their products; it is ALL repackaging. lime crime basically takes wholesale products and puts them in cute tubes. yes, it is SUPER adorable but... they don't even make their products!!!

Rachel: As far as most researching people have concluded - only the loose eyeshadows from years ago were repackaged (they're discontinuing the whole line right now). Their new products definitely aren't.

But if you have other thoughts I'd love to hear it!

So, I'm well aware of the problems with Doe and that her original Magic Dust were TKB Trading products. I was even against their products for years and hesitant to spend my money on her products. She has since grown and the product line has become really nice. I bought her latest palette over the weekend along with two lipsticks, a lipgloss and an eyeliner and honestly I love the products I bought and will buy from her again. We all make mistakes when we're younger, we learn from those mistakes and we grow from them. I would say try the products if you get a chance and make your final judgement on her products then.

Would I buy from her again? Absolutely.

well i agree that a brand has a chance to reinvent itself (as do people), and in that case i will spend time looking at their newer products. unfortunately, that's received much less attention and based on previous actions, i would have no interest in anything related to the brand. good to know!

haha sorry for my quick and, admittedly, a bit careless comment earlier.

I don't really know the back story to how this whole scandal started but i recently saw lime crime at IMATS this weekend and bought 2 of their lipsticks. I may be a sucker for packaging, and I'm sure I'm not the only one but I was impressed at the lipsticks. Great color pay off, goes on smoothly and I'd totally purchase from them again.
