Jolly Blogger Questions & Answers



1. Do you open your gifts on Christmas Eve or Christmas Day?
open all my gifts on Christmas Day, from my parents and relatives.  But, on Christmas Eve my sister and I each get to open one gift from our parents. 

2. Favorite Christmas Song?
My favorite Christmas song right now is Santa Tell me by Ariana Grande. It's so sweet and christmasy ( if that's a word ) I just love it! I also really like Christmas in the Sand by Colbie Callet.  I wish I could spend Christmas at the beach, I'm not a fan of frost! 

Santa Tell me


Christmas in the sand






3. Favorite Christmas/holiday Movie?
Every year starting when I was about 7 I always watch "The year with out a Santa Clause", so I'd say it's my favorite holiday movie.  To this day I still love it and sing along to the songs haha!

4. Favorite Christmas decoration?
My favorite Christmas decoration is defiantly the lights, they are so pretty and light up a room beautifully! I keep some of mine up year round. When people go all out with the lights outside their house it looks so festive! I just love driving by houses in December to see all the lights. 



5. Favorite Christmas Food?
Homemade mash potatoes and cranberry sauce, basically my meal for Thanksgiving and Christmas. I can't put into words how much I love this combination, defiantly my favorite holiday food!

6. Favorite Holiday/winter drink?
My favorite holiday drink is of course from Starbucks; The Salted Carmel Mocha Frappe (With soy milk so I don't get a stomach ache).  Yes, most people like warm drinks in the winter, but me, I prefer Frappes.  The Salted Carmel Mocha Frappe is absolutely delicious and I lovveee the carmel chocolate combination!  

7. Snow or no snow?
I like a bit of snow, only enough to cover the grass, other wise its too much!  I'm a warm weather kind of person and unfortunately the winters in New Jersey are brutal. 

8. Do you send out cards or no cards?
My family sends out cards every year, either including a picture of my sister and I, or of the whole family (sometimes including the dog too).

9. Do you secretly still believe in Santa Clause?
I would say that I believe in the magic that thought of Santa brings to the Holiday season, how excited it makes all the children.  I remember the holidays I would get so excited to see Santa, it was fun and magical to believe.
    
10. Your favorite winter clothing item?
Hands down my pink Uggs! They are so soft, cozy, and match my girly style exactly!  I've had them for four years now and they still remain my most prized, loved, and worn winter clothing idem. 



11. One beauty product that you cannot be without this winter? 
My First aid Beauty Ultra repair cream  is my holy grail winter product!  It saves me from the dreaded dry skin and Exama that likes to show up in cold winter weather. 



12. Best Christmas Memory?
I have so many Christmas memories that I love, but I'll share one from when I was pretty young.  My whole family would always purchase these santa shaped ginger bread cookies and on christmas eve we would decorate them together with squirting icing and M&Ms.  I look back and remember how much fun it was to decorate these cookies and how much of a mess my sister and I made! 

Thats all the Questions for this Award!  I hope you enjoyed reading, and even if I didn't tag you I would still love to read more posts on these questions, so let me know if you do it!  Also, be sure to stop by my Youtube channel and catch up on all the Holiday videos I've been posting!

Libester Award


Exciting news! My blog was nominated for the Liebster award by the lovely Lipsiie ! She is a beauty blogger that gives fabulous reviews on tons of products. (Click link to see her blog) The Liebster award is an award nominated to great blogs with a small amount of followers so that more people will become aware of their blog. Heres how it works: You must answer the 11 questions given to you by the person who nominated you, then make up 11 questions of your own for the 5-11 people you nominate.  The blogs you nominate must have 200 or less followers and you have to make sure they know that they have been nominated. Also, you have to mention and follow the blog that nominated you for the award! Now here are the questions given to me by Lipsiie;


1) What is your favourite makeup brand, one being budget and one high end?
High end would be Urban decay because of their line of the naked products, and on budget would be L'oreal, because they make my favorite line of lipsticks.



2) What is your favorite lipstick?
My favorite lipstick is the L'oreal color Riche in the color 800 Fairest nude. The shade is a mauve colored nude and I love pink and nude lip colors so it is just perfect for me!




3) Three makeup products you could not live with out?
 The first idem I don't know how I did live without, is the perfect Naked 3 palette.  My last post was a review of this palette so you can check it out here 

The second is my Neutrogena oil free eye makeup remover that works like a charm.


The third is the idem I absolutely can't live without, my Maybelline fit me concealer.


4) Three things you have to do before you leave the house- beauty related? (e.g. wear foundation, fill in brows)
Before I leave the house the 3 beauty things I must apply are concealer, foundation/bbcream and lip product.

5) Describe yourself in three words?
I would describe myself as girly, ambitious, and spontaneous.


6) The inspiration behind your blog?
Blogging just makes sense for someone like me.  I have always been really into fashion and  I love giving my friends advice.  Also, in the past year I have gotten really obsessed with makeup too. I'm always talking about or reading about or watching videos on hair, makeup, and fashion. One day My aunt suggested that I should start a blog, and thats what I did! Now have a huge obsession with blogging and have so much  fun with it!  Also, I may make a YouTube to go along with my blog in the near future so keep an eye out for that too!

7) Drugstore foundation or high end which one?
I use a drugstore foundation because it works just fine for me.  Mind you I don't have that much to cover up and the only problem I really have with my skin is dryness, so a high end foundation is not absolutely necessary.  My favorite drugstore foundations are from Neutrogena because they actually help your skin, don't clog pores, and do not appear cakey.  The one I've recently been using is the Neutrogena Skin clearing liquid makeup because it makes my skin smooth and gives a perfect amount of coverage.  But, I do have to use a moisturizer under the foundation every time because it can dry out my skin a bit if I don't.


8) What was your first piece of makeup that you owned or brought?
 My first piece of makeup is one of the products I can't live without, my Maybelline fit me concealer.

9) Name one high end beauty product that was a disappointment?
I have never gotten a high end product I was really disappointed with because I like to do my research before buying expensive makeup because it is a risk.  But, I've seen my fair share of horrible drugstore products.  A product that there was a lot of hype around about 6 months ago was the L'oreal voluminus lashes mascara that I did not like one bit.  It was very clumpy, flakey, and looked really horrible on me. I was disappointed too because I usually really like L'oreal products.

10) What country would you like to travel to and why?
The country I would like to travel to is France.  Paris, France is very big on high end fashion and a dream of mine is to go shopping there.

11) One beauty product on your wish list?
The Hula Benefit bronzer everyone's been ravening about is definitely on my beauty wish list  because  I always love a good bronzer.
