All new Toxin... All new Toxic Lipstick...

Hi Lovelies,

Toxic Lipstick will be getting a brand new look very soon, so please excuse me if things don't match for a while!

Speaking of new looks, check out these gorgeous new pictures of me taken by the very lovely Angela of Miss Angela Photography! You can also see her facebook page here!

Love to you all,

A quick post for Halloween...

HELLO!!!

Okay lovelies I know I have been ignoring you for far too long... I miss you all so much!

I have been lurking away in the background and am now planning my return to toxic lipstick fresh faced and with a swag of new polish for you all to feast your peepers on!

In the meantime, even through we don't really celebrate halloween here in Australia some friends of mine hosted a halloween party!

Here's me all dressed up...

"who the heck is that supposed to be?" I hear you ask?

Black Cat from Spiderman!!!

Thank you all so much for your thoughts and wishes while I have been away, keep your eyes peeled for more from the little Aussie Gothling...

Oh and just before I go... it's my birthday tomorrow.

Send me some love!

Love,

Back with a vengeance...

Surprise my darklings!
I told you I'd be back!

Here's a mini update on everything that's been happening in my little world...

Started temping, finished temping, got called back to work as casual contract for the company, broke my thumby nail (but you knew that), racked up a stupid internet bill, got cut off, got taken on as casual by work, watched my nails grow, received a mystery package (WHO WAS THAT!?!? TELL ME!!!!!!) did some modelling, and yesterday, the big day, finally got the internet reconnected AND got offered a permanent contract at my job! Yay!

I know I've missed a LOT while I've been away, you all need to fill me in ASAP!
What's the gossip? Who's hated? Who's new? What trends are you loving? What life changing posts have you made? What have you been doing with your lovely selves?!

In the meanwhile, here's the result of one of my modelling ventures! (clicky for bigger!)

Comment on this post with EVERYTHING I've missed!!! Or email me if it's OH... MY... GOD... kind of news!

 Love,

Time off for Toxin...

Hi everyone!

I have had one heck of a weird day today.

As you know I'm unemployed at the moment but today I got an offer for some temping work, as well as an invitation to a job induction as well as in just over a week I have an interview for a third job.

This week is going to be BUUUSSSSYYYY. Which means Toxin needs a little break. I'm going to be very corporate-bland and not my usual spookycute self at all. I have a feeling inspiration will dwindle. The upside of this is that in just a little while I may be employed! (Lots more money for polish!)

I'll still be painting away, so I'll have lots to show you when I get back from my break.

This will not affect my giveaway at all (for which you have just over 4 DAYS to enter. I noticed I have less than half of the entries that I have followers, so if you're reading this, make sure you enter RIGHT NOW.)

Keep my blog warm for me while I'm away, okay?
(I'm still contactable via email!)

Love,

NEW SEGMENT!

Hi everyone!
So, I'm a doofus and can't find my camera! I swear I've looked EVERYWHERE and have no idea where the little bugger got to... I know I had it in my room last as I uploaded photos and haven't taken any more since... so for my idiocy you get my newest weekly segment early... it's called... *drum roll*

A BAT is short for A Bit About Toxin. Spookycute, no?
(For those of you that think it't TOO spooky, here's a cute bat (photo does not belong to me):

ANYWAY, this segment will maybe be weekly or just whenever I need a little break and want to tell you a little bit about myself.

First thing about me, I'm a photographer. 

Sort of. 

I don't yet have a DSLR as I'm unemployed and have no savings because I need all the money I can get just for food. Nail Polish is a mega splurge for me and the only thing that keeps me sane. 

I prefer to work with film becuase I feel it is more involved (I usually process and develop all my own work, including some colour!)

Here's some examples of my stuff:

Pure

Maitresse Rouge

La Fee Rose

Ushanka

Iridescence

Crespe

Aefentid

Fleur de Lis

Red Elixir

Elixir of Life

A mere foible...

So now you know a bit about Toxin!
If anyone has suggestions of what they'd like to see for the next A BAT! please leave a comment in this post!
