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.

NJ Update

Hello guys,

I am just letting you know that I am moving out of home for the first time in a couple of days and I won't have a computer (thank god for internet cafes) to upload photos. However I will be visitng home every other weekend so hopefully I can do some swatches then.

I won't be able to reply all that often to your posts and emails, I am really sorry :( I wish I had enough money for a laptop.

End on a positive note?

I will be receiving some OPI Reflection Glitters shortly thanks to a new friend, along with some awesome nail art goodies! So you will be able to see those sometime soon :)

Also, I am working with Zoya this weekend so that should be a lot of fun!

I have a load of posts backed up so I won't love you and leave you with nothing n_n I hope you still come to enjoy NJ! It will be updated just maybe every 2-4 days.

Thank-you for all your support this far!

Don't forget to have a look under the tags for more reading :D OPI, Color Club, Essie, Mac, China Glaze, Zoya, Qtica, Nail Art, Nail Care maybe some Mattes? Or Rescue Beauty Lounge?

Lemme Show You My Lippies...

I finally have a use for this plastic thing! I can also still fit 5 more lippies in there... ;)

Well this is the lot at the moment. Snob, Pink Nouveau, Strayin', Girl About Town, Sweet Thing, Big Bow and Made With Love.


































Snob
: Snob is a really nice light pink, my kind of 'nude'. It goes on either lightly or opaque. Can be drying if you don't have lip balm or prep underneath.












Pink Nouveau: My absolute favourite at the moment. Goes on quite opaque and bright. I think Pink Nouveau is like what barbie has on her lips. I got this one because my friend had always worn it and I couldn't find it because the MAC ladies told me it was DC'ed. Thankfully one still had one.










Strayin': Love at first sight. Rivaling Pink Nouveau although I haven't worn Strayin' out yet. It is much creamier and a little more shiny/sparkley and more yellow toned compared to PN.











Girl About Town: My first lippie. I haven't worn it as much because its a little hard for me to put on and because it is such a bold colour, you can see where you go wrong. As shown here lol. My tutor kept telling me to put a gloss on it and a classmate said "Steph, jsut a headsup, I think your lips could look really glamourous with some gloss on top". Um, k. So I went to MAC and the guy put one on top. It didn't look at all different to me, only close-up. Whatever - I wear it by itself :)










Sweet Thing: I didn't think i;d like this one as it isn't quite as standy-outy as the others I own. But! I tried it on in the sunlight and it was really pretty. Sweet Thing just added a tiny bit of darker pink to my natural lip colour as well as some sparklies. I like.











Made With Love: Is a pretty orange/coral. It goes on quite sheer but builds up quickly. I think I will choose this one on one of my 'not feeling so bold' days. Made With Love also looks similar to Big Bow, but once the sunlight hits Big Bow, WOAH!












Big Bow: Looks quite subtle until light hits it. I like how Big Bow gives me a peachy/coraly lip with a whole heapa sparklies. I also loved that it had Bow in the name and has a Hello Kitty Face in the lipstick. So cute!
