The 14 questions of Christmas!

Hey hey guys, so here's a little tag that's all over 

YouTube, so i decided to do it on my blog :)

 You'll get to know me more and what an Irish Christmas

 

is all about :) 

THE QUESTIONS!

1. Do you start your Christmas shopping early or wait until the last minute?

I wish i could say that i'm organised, planned and on top of everything, Sadly i'm the sort that come December i panic. Every year i'm like oh next year ill buy all my presents in the sale and be organised and then boom, forget and the panic sets in! In everything else i am so organised, sadly not Christmas presents! 

2. If you could be in any Christmas movie what would it be?

Miracle on 34th street! I am obsessed with that movie and watch it religiously every single year! I used to watch it every single year without fail. 

3. Which do you like better: Christmas Eve or Christmas Day?

I love Christmas eve because i get to spend the whole night with my family, but i love Christmas day way more. I get to see everyone i want to see and have a huge dinner! In the morning we open all our presents and then spend the day with family and i love it so much!

4. When does your family put up your Christmas tree and who decorates it? 

Anytime after the 8th of December  In Ireland, that's the usual! Its normally my twin and I. We put up two trees, one artificial and one real tree :) It takes hours and i love doing it. Christmas music, hot chocolate and its usually snowing :) 

5. White lights or colored lights?

I hate coloured lights! White lights the whole way, i love a light up tree! 

6. Are you guilty of peeking at your presents or do you like the surprise?

when i was younger i used to ruin Christmas and always peek at my presents now i love surprises! I always wait and see what i get cause it makes Christmas day even more special :) 

7. Would you rather live in a gingerbread house or in Santa's Workshop?

Gingerbread! Cause i could eat my way around, i am OBSESSED with gingerbread! Seriously my favorite biscuit in the whole world!

8. Tell us your Christmas Eve traditions!

Usually we have a family meal out with just the 5 of us, then go home and watch Christmas movies together, have a huge fire on and eat loads of junk :) 

9. If you could be under the mistletoe with anyone who would it be?

JUSTIN BIEBER! :P haha no, Ashton Kutcher, i am obsessed with him since that 70's show!

10. What tops your tree?

A gorgeous Tinkerbell tree topper or an angel! We never really put stars on the tree, i just hate them s much i don't even know why! :P 

11. Have you ever gone Christmas caroling?

No god no, i've been in tons of Christmas concerts and Christmas choirs, i just think caroling would be so embarrassing!

12. Do you countdown to Christmas? If so, how many days are left?

Yes yes i do! There's exsactly a month today :) I can't wait! 

13. What are some foods and treats you can count on having every holiday season?

Gingerbread, hot chocolate, tea, chocolate, after eight mint chocolate, a huge tin or roses! 

14. How has Christmas kept its magic for you as you've grown older?

The magic was still there, even though we grew up its still celebrated and we still get tons of presents from our parents! :) 

Merry Holiday Times

Why do i wear make up?

Hey guys, here's a fun little blog i taught everyone could relate too!

Its why i wear make up and there's four  fun questions :) I tag anyone to do this and takes two mins!

When did you begin loving makeup? 

I started wearing make up properly when i was 13/14. I always scared to start wearing it as i felt it was so cakey and orange! Finally i came to my census and realized they had multiple shades of make up :)

At the start i only wore foundation on big occasions and mascara and blush day to day!

Compared to know it just does not compare! :P 

I think the biggest problem is most people are not taught properly at all! Its a pity i didn't have the world of Youtube and the internet!

How do you feel without makeup? 

Usually i would freak out if i didn't have make up on some where public. But if i am shopping in tesco or something i wouldn't put it on! This whole weekend i haven't worn make up just to give my skin a rest! 

I really dont mind not wearing it anymore, the only place i have to wear make up is to college or something! I don't get people who wear a full face of make up everywhere, there skin must be so bad! :(

What do you like about makeup? 

I love how versatile it is! Within 10 minutes you can instantly have a new look, you can change the colour, shape and look of your face! No no, i'm not saying it makes you a different person. It really helps to enhance your appearance and highlight features you have!

Yes it can give you confidence but i wouldn't use it as a barrier!

With the huge choice of products shopping and applying it is nearly therapeutic for me at this stage! 

I love spending time doing my make up properly just to enjoy it! Its also a great way to wake yourself up without doing much. I find the mornings i crawl out of bed its great, it covers any bags or dark eyes and i look fresh and wide awake!

Three Holy Grail items? 

My favorite mascara i have ever used is the Essence I love extreme mascara! This stuff is something like €2.50, but when applied to clean eyelashes it looks like false lashes! Of coarse its not the holy grail as it does dry out! But hey, its the best mascara i have ever used from upper and lower ends of make up!

Foundation - Sadly i have yet to find my holy grail foundation as i find it very hard to get a full coverage foundation without feeling it is clogging my skin! I wish there was a pimplier way but sadly there all extremely oily! Having dry skin i cannot stand the feeling of shiny oily make up! I do however love 25hour stay by Rimmel but i feel that your skin gets used to it very easily!

I think any staple red lipstick is holy grail to any girl! Coco Chanel's Red or Kate Moss's red are both fabulous! :) They last ages! 

There ya have it! My make up story! :)

Whats yours?

A smokey eye with Naked palette, Smog and half baked, Essence Mascara,
 Mua Blush and Rimmel 25 hour foundation :) 

Happy Make Up Days
