Nose Piercing

First off, I would like to wish everyone a Happy New Year! I hope you have all had an amazing Christmas and beginning of the year. 

The second thing, if you haven't already guessed by the title of the post, is I got my nose pierced. YAY!
I have been contemplating getting a nose piercing for a while now. So many thing to consider.  Will it look good?, Will I regret it?, Will it hurt?.
So I had never really gotten around to it. But for Christmas I got given a voucher to get it done.

I woke up this morning with complete butterflies! I had decided before hand to get it done using the needle because it is meant to be cleaner and less likely to get infected. I was so scared that it was going to hurt that I decided to Youtube people getting there nose pierced. That did not help! The process looked soooooo painful that I was -->this close<-- to just saying "no, this is not happening".
I went to get it done and the room looked like a torture chamber haha. White wall, black sponge bed, and an assortment of various needles on a steel table. (I reckon they should consider painting the walls pink. Or something more inviting). 

Anyway. The lady clamped my nostril in a pair of tong like things and then just pushed the needle through. I hadn't even realised she had finished before it was all over. I'm not going to lie and say it was completely painless, it hurt a little bit. But nothing to stress over. It was really quick, and overall I am definitely happy that I got it done! The main thing I hope anyone gains from this is: if you are considering getting your nose pierced, DO NOT YOUTUBE IT BEFORE HAND! You will completely freak yourself out when it is not that scary.

Schwarzkopf Taft Anti-Frizz Lotion Review

I have been in search of a good, and affordable, product to take the frizz out of my hair for a while. I purchased the 'Schwarzkopf taft smooth operartor anti-frizz lotion', with UV protection, from Countdown (supermarket) for NZ$7.99 [200ml]. I rub a small dollop of the lotion in my hands, and then rub through my towel dried hair.  I preferred washing my hair in the evening and then sleeping with my wet hair because I found when I woke up my hair would be very wavy and tousled. It feels very weightless, however I found that the first time I used it I put too much on and it made my hair feel greasy. So I advice putting a little on at a time until you decide how much is the right amount for your hair. I do LOVE the smell. It has a very strong, fruity smell, and it left my hair smelling delicious until I washed it again. It left my hair very soft and did take away some frizz, leaving me with distinguishable waves. Although I have no major complaints with the 'Schwarzkopf anti-frizz lotion' in particular, I think I will still have a look around some more products to see if there is anything that works better for my hair.

D&A Fashion Show

           

Today was an eventful day.
Me and my two friends did catwalk modeling for the Design and Art College here in New Zealand. The hair was amazing, the makeup was amazing, the clothes were amazing, and it was just an overall great experience. I have been asked to do some modeling for a makeup artist there too. So hopefully, if all goes to plan, I will be posting some photo's soon.
