Doe Deere believes that women should live unapologetically. That’s why she created the make-up line, LimeCrime. Deer introduced “limecrime” on eBay in 2004 as a way to gain exposure for her DIY fashion line. The clothes she designed were bright and colorful but finding makeup to match the clothing was no easy task. Ultimately, she launched Lime Crime in 2008 creating unique colorful makeup with names like unicorn lipstick, carousel gloss and zodiac glitter. Recently, Lime Crime added a new category to its collection called Velvetines—a liquid matte lipstick that goes on smooth and stays on the lips. With colors like jinx (witchberry), rave (electric lavender), and black velvet (blackest black) to match the whimsical personalities of women—like
her role model, Kimberly Gordon—who live unapologetically. Deere spent months working with a chemist to come up with a vegan lipstick that held no animal content. As a result, the product received the Leaping Bunny cruelty-free stamp of approval. Everything hasn’t always been rosy for Deere’s company Lime Crime. Last year, the company experienced a cyber security breach which resulted in customer’s information being stolen. As a consequence, some customer’s lost faith in the company. However, Doe fought back and employed a team of customer care experts and security specialists to win back the hearts of her customers, restore the brand’s reputation, and prevent cybercriminals from invading the website again.

As explained by Mohan (1997), secondary layers of signified evoked emotions and hence, this advert suggests that wealth and royalty are virtuous. Furthermore, the connotation of the advert linked back to the sales pitch of the perfume that if you buy and wear the scent ‘Killer Queen’, you too could have a lavish and honourable lifestyle. This, in turn, underpins the ‘wealth is desirable’ ideology being depicted throughout this

The evolution of cyber threats has reached a critical point where hackers withhold important information in exchange for payment. In the last three decades, the Internet has fundamentally changed the way people, governments, and private organizations store, use, and manage information.
