Just Dropping by- Old Pics!

 Hey guys just dropping by to post a collection of some older looks that I have been meaning to post for a long time! If you have any questions I will try to answer them when I get home. Oh I had a lovely holiday and some big news to tell you when I get back to reality next week!!!

2 Week Hiatus

If you can call it a hiatus but anyway I wont be on until then, or mebbe even longer then that coz after we get back from the holiday my friend will be down & so will SO's sister & her bub!! Yayy
I have saved some things as drafts so hopefully when I get back into Aus I can quickly post them (How sad is that, nobody will probably miss me haha :P )
Oh & I know I had entered in some giveaways & on the small chance of me winning I hope I don't miss out :'( I will try to check my emails though!


Anyhooo I shall leave you with a few random memes & pics just coz I can =)

Lol google earth stuffed up. How freaky would this be!?

LOL how did that get there!??

Find the cat in this picture!

Hmm there is still a few hours until we leave so I will still probably browse around here but until next time toodles <3 <3

New Hair , Smudge e/l + More Bronzed than usual

haha sorry for all the FOTD posting (which isn't even that much) but I want to get some out of the way for when I am away. I have older pics to post too like the one I posted yesterday so if it seems like some times my hair looks faded or my eyebrows look messy it's coz they are not posted in order.... (I still have some from months ago that I wanna post!!)

Sorry for the posey pics I was in a posey mood :P
Not much changed with my hair, I just got it dyed that same dark red/purple colour (to match my extensions which I barely wear! my hair is long anyway haha) & my side fringe re-cut.... which I think I may grow out again & style it to the middle haha that doesn't make sense.. oh am I the only one with the horrible short hairs around my hairline at the top!?? ahah

Natural Light.... I wish my eyes were more squinty haha!

Deer in Headlights lol

Trying to show off some of the blonde I have in my hair.... Which is hard to show since it is hidden

 Eyes: Bourjois Kohl & Contour e/l- not as smudged as I wanted but I didn't want it to be too messy
Nude e/s & a bit of shimmery e/s for highlight

Lip & Cheek Products

The lipstick I have had for yearss but had only used it once (it was a backup so it wasn't yucky lol) I had found in a pocket of a bag I hadn't used in a while so I knew I had to use it again..... ooh & it smells delicious!!

Take care peeps <3

I had been meaning to use this colour combo for a little bit now, and one day I saw heaps of similar looks which I decided was a sign to do it :P

Eyes~

I am stumped I wish I took a picture of the products I used =/ Sorry!! *slaps hand*

Have a great day/night where ever you are :D

Nyx Lip Product Swatches!

I am still building my lipstick collection (which is the biggest part of my makeup collec haha) which is mainly thanks to Nyx for their affordable & huge lipstick range! So I only have 12 lipsticks, 6 lip liners & 3 lip glosses but I am getting there, I promise!
I find the best place to purchase these on the web is through Joy's Cosmetics store on ebay- click here- where you can get a bunch of items say 3 l/s for about $7 and I have ordered from her so much &have had no problems at all!
Anyway- onto the swatches =] Pic Heavy so apologies in advance! Also, click the pics to view them larger!

Left To Right- Harmonica, Strawberry Milk, Narcissus, Tea Rose, Margarita, Chloe

Harmonica- Frosty, hard to apply from the tube without it being streaky.

Strawberry Milk- Matte light pink, opaque compared to harmonica.

Narcissus- Matte bubble gum pink

Tea Rose- Matte muted pink, great for everyday

Margarita- gorgeous shimmery coral colour. I love this over pinky L/L

Chloe-  umm not matte but not shimmery, fuchsia that pulls more purple. Had to capture in flash pics!

 Left To Right- Iris, Summer Love, Pumpkin Pie, Fig, Spell Bound, Eros

Iris- Frosty, pretty much the same texture as Harmonica. Not so sure about this colour on me yet.

Summer Love- Not quite matte or shimmery nude. 1st pic looks a little too yucky on me but I like it in natural light/ full face (so if you're only ever going to look at my lips up close with a light then don't :P)

Pumpkin Pie- More orangey then summer love, & same texture/ finish

Fig- Matte Light Pink, soo pretty! However I didn't apply it too prettily here though :p

Spell Bound- One of my faves! Gorgeous Matte Hot Pink. It was hard for me to choose between this & Louisiana.

Eros- Vibrant Matte Red, gorgeous! Probably the only way I like to wear it in public though is blotted out.

 *phew* that was a lot! Now- Lip Liners.

 Left To Right- Rose, Dolly Pink, Pinky, Mauve, Bloom, Prune

My Faves have to be Rose & Pinky,

 Rose- Gorgeous light pink colour, I got this because I thought it would match a lot of pink l/s
Dolly Pink- I love this colour too but the texture is harder to work with. Makes bright pink l/s look cooler- as opposed to warmer haha.
Pinky- Gorgeous bright pink! Works great with Spell Bound. I love it underneath Margarita too.
Mauve- It is a tad too dark as a MLBB colour however I like to use it to outline my lips with nude lip liner- blended in well.
Bloom- Similar to Pinky but pulls more burgundy, gorgeous under colours like Chloe.
 Prune-A dark ummm prune colour lol, I don't think I will have much use for this (I lie- I do have some pruney l/s that would match this) But I would probably use this for a gradient look.

So thats it of the l/l for now,Next on my list is definitely tangerine! I got bloom & prune as a gift from Joy's Cosmetics & probably wouldn't have bought them anyway but I would totally buy Bloom again if I need to.

Lastly- Mega Shine Lip Glosses. As I mentioned I only have a small collection (Working on it!)

Left To Right- Sugar Pie, Smokey Look, Lala
Sugar Pie looks good with a darker smokey eye, well same as Smokey Look & Lala is just a gorgeous bright pink lip gloss! I love these because they are not very sticky (I still have the hair in lipgloss problem though -.- but my hair gets in the way all the time) & I really like the smell! Kinda sweet, reminds me of some kind of lolly but I have no idea which.


Anyhoo I hope this is helpful! Well I hope so coz it took ages to do :p lol. Thanks for looking!
Do you have any fave Nyx Lip Products & which? (based on pics, and/or your own experiences)
