Zoya Hot Lips : Starlet

Starlet, what a gorgeous colour.

Only mum and I can't get it to work. It comes out alright but it is quite hard to spread it around evenly. Heating it in your hands first helps a little but you still get lines on your lips or around your lips where Starlet has been pushed and gathered.

When wearing such a strong/noticeable colour like Starlet you kind of don't want it to be gathering in places.


We'll see how this one goes.

Zoya Hot Lips : Baby Doll

Don't get sucked in by the cute colour of pink in this tube!

Babydoll applies more like a lipstick in a way. It isn't the least bit sheer.

Babydoll is hard to apply evenly, gathers in places, doesn't spread well.

Please, as much as I don't want you to look at them- just look at the photos. What a mess! What the hell is this Zoya?!

Zoya Hot Lips : Sparkle

Sparkle is great for when you aren't wanting to add any colour at all to your lips but still want them to gloss and sparkle.

Sparkle has a couple of counterparts that look scarily similar. Limo and Snowsicle.

Limo has a slight cream tinge to it and Snowsicle may as well just be gloss, you can't see its sparkles. So if you want a gloss that sparkles, Sparkle is for you n_n

Zoya Hot Lips : Trendy

My absolute favourite of the Hot Lips range. Trendy. I always seem to reach for Trendy when I am not wanting a strong colour on my lips like my lippies give me.

It goes on so smoothly and lasts for ages.

Trendy is like a more peachy version of Shimmer really. Same finish and sparkle as each other.

I would say Trendy is the warmer version of Shimmer.

I want to try Luvie next! n_n

Zoya Hot Lips

Another weekend at home :D

My camera has been holding about 500+ photos for two weeks until I can use the computer at home, and then, would you believe... I forgot me camera cable... >_< So I have been busy editing all day!

First up I have some Hot Lips swatches to show you side by side. One I have not shown here is Babydoll... It will have its own post soon. I am warning you now- do not buy Babydoll.

Beauty Expo Haul!

Hello, hello! Feels good to be back home for a couple of days. I already miss my new home...

Here is what I picked up:

• Zoya Remove+ Refill
• Zoya Remove+ Normal size
• Zoya Angel
• Zoya Dulcina
• Zoya Cassie
• Zoya Moxie
• Zoya Jo
• Zoya Harley
• Zoya Mia
• Zoya Malia

• Zoya Hope
• Zoya Lola
• Zoya Anchor Basecoat
• Zoya Get Even Ridge Filler
• Qtica Natural Nail Growth Stimulator
• Hot Lips Starlet

• CND Grapeade
• CND Blue Blood (can't believe this was there!)
• NFUOH 53
• NFUOH 60
• NFUOH GS14
• NFUOH 12

It was so awesome seeing all the NFUOH stuff in person! Me and mum were like kids in a candy store. It was amazing! I also picked up some of their nail art stuff which I can't wait to use!

So far I have worn Angel (a pinker alternative to OPI Blush Of Adrenaline), NFUOH 12 (love this one, a violet pink creme)m NFUOH 60 (I must have looked a little crazy looking at my nails moving them around to catch all the different colours LOL) and Harley (which is a nice neautral grey with silver/golden shimmer)

Zoya Hot Lips Meow

Meow is quite similar to Minx but gives a bit more of a nude-y colour when on your lips, beautiful none the less.

What do you think of Zoya's Hot Lips? Have you tried them?

NZers can buy them here.

Zoya Hot Lips Smoochie

Smoochie is mum's favourite and I can see why!

Smoochie gives your lips a sort of 'strawberry stain' if you like, with a subtle shimmer. I quite like this one too... hmm hehe

NZers can buy them here.

Zoya Hot Lips Minx

Minx is a really nice natural lip gloss colour. Just adds that little bit of sparkle and glossy to your lips :D

I am getting used to the smell of the Hot Lips and it isn't bothering me as much. I do however like to wear my lipsticks, so layer these on top can look really pretty.

NZers can buy them from here.
