Monday Mani by Sportsgirl and Ulta3

I have had nude nails for a while. I picked off my last gel manicure and it has totally ruined my nails. They were horrible! It’s been a few months and they still aren’t great, but they are much better.
Miss 3 also loves nail polish (she calls it nalel poulish) she was given a scented on from Sportsgirl by a family friend (thanks Kate and Erin) and she can’t get enough of it. So that’s what we did. I also wanted to try out one of the new Ulta3 ones we were given. So with the 2 combined, this is what you get.

Please excuse my horrible nails and paint job!

 

 

Lets get together and paint the town red..and maybe a bit of sparkle as well.

As makeup students we were told that the hardest technique to perfect is applying the perfect red lip. We were often subjected to applying a red lip on a fellow student over and over again until we got it right. You would think by doing this I would lose all my love for the lady in red but NO, I still hold her near and dear to my heart and can often be found sporting her wild tones. I know there are a lot of girls out there that are still a little afraid to wear a red lip but there is really nothing to be afraid of. And a major plus of wearing red lips is that it makes your teeth look super white!

On a recent shopping trip I noticed a sales assistant with a particularly beautiful colour red on her lips, when I asked her what it was I was truly amazed…SPORTSGIRL.  I went in and bought the lipstick as soon as I could, and smiled when I read what she was called ‘Fashionista’.

Fashonista is packaged in a stylish black lipstick canister with a pretty pink heart on the lid that reads ‘Pout about it”. It has a fun girly feel that I love and now I want to have one in every colour. Fashionista is a beautiful deep red that compliments every skin tone; it glides on perfectly and leaves your lips feeling smooth and moisturized.

The funny thing about this lipstick is that it does not state that it is long lasting but stayed on my pout for hours without the need to reapply. Fashionista is perfect lipstick to wear on its own, although when I am hitting the town I do like to glide some Napoleon ‘St John’ lip gloss over the top to add some extra sparkle.
